Re: MiSTer creating new content folders in SD root and redirecting. Persists after deleting/reboot!

I think I'm getting this as well.

Suddenly my MiSTer root folder looks like the attached screenshot, and the cores no longer look in the /games/CORE/ folder by default.

ROMs not being found

This is doing my head in! I have a NAS setup to serve my ROMs (retroNAS), and it works great for console cores. The issue is that no arcade code works, I just get the "/mame/whatever.zip NOT FOUND" error whenever I try and launch one. I have all the ROMs in the /media/fat/games/mame/ folder - see screenshot. Does anyone have an idea what ...

R.C. Grand Prix freezes in shop

This game (R.C. Grand Prix) freezes in the shop.

Win the first 2 races, then you can go to the shop - but it always freezes for me?

Re: eXoFlynn Top 300 DOS Pack Updates and Support

I tried to play Dark Forces yesterday, but it failed (can't remember the error though). Ever since then, the Top 300 menu no longer loads up, as I get "Secondary VHD not mounted". It is definitely mounted! Maybe it got corrupted? I fixed my issue. I think it was because I used an older version of the update script which bust my install. ...

Re: Help moving ao486 to an external USB drive?

Also, I think I had to capitalise the folder when I did it.

Re: Green Beret stuttering

Ah! Literally just worked out the issue.

If I set the analog video v-pos to anything over 2 it starts this stutter. Set to 0, and it's smooth as silk.

Any idea why this would happen?

Green Beret stuttering

My Green Beret has stuttering video all of a sudden. It sort of slows down every half second, hard to explain.

Does anyone else have this issue? Or know why mine might be doing this?

Re: eXoFlynn Top 300 DOS Pack Updates and Support

I can't even get the menu to appear anymore though...

I'm currently trying a new usb HD to see if that is the issue

Re: Occasional Freezing

Monkey Island is freezing for me too.

I don't think it's sound related as it's frozen on me with Munt and also using a MT32pi.

Frozen in 3 different places, so seems random.

Re: No sync with Sony PVM-20M2MDE

Fixed.

It was a setting on the PVM needed tweaking. H Frequency.

Re: No sync with Sony PVM-20M2MDE

It's the same issue on the Amiga core - both worked perfectly a few months ago.

No sync with Sony PVM-20M2MDE

I used to be able to use the ZX Spectrum core on my PVM, and it was fantastic, but recently it won't sync on the screen, and I can't work out what has changed. I've tried using: - External sync using the H and V sync cables coupled into one using a T connector (this is the setup when it worked before) - External sync using just the H sync cable - E...

Re: What new console, handheld or arcade core do you think will be released in 2021?

In 2021 we're going to (hopefully) see: - 2nd X68000 core by Jotego - Jotego mentioned this himself. Someone asked if he would be contributing to the existing core, and he said no. It will be a brand-new core done from scratch. Jotego choosing to do this is the result of a request from one of his top-tier Patreons. - SEGA System-16 by Jotego - Jot...

Re: Apple II Core

The Mockinboard sound in this core no longer seems to work with my capture card... I suppose it might be slightly off spec? I do get sound from a headset connected directly to my monitor audio output, so it does go through the HDMI cable at least. I can't get sound out via HDMI either. I play on a CRT and the sound works, but I also stream HDMI to...
