If the code for the core isn't released, then you can't port it over to another platform without writing your own core code. Even though both platforms have a Cyclone fpga, you still have to "compile" the code to match the framework and the actual cyclone itself. There are Pocket cores where their code is not released therefore you can't ...

Do you have Border turned off? If so, turn it on and see if that helps you.
The "stretched" images you see should actually be a blank screen, but when the signal is cropped to remove the border, it's causing that weird effect.

Flandango

...I was looking for the option to instead of pressing enter to start the core, press a different key that just brings up the settings dialog for that core and allows you to insert a floppy disk before starting. Unfortunately it isn't possible to launch a core's settings without first loading the core because the core itself contains the informati...

Flandango

Not intentional. Minor fix...just needs a line swap. PR submitted for next update. In mean time a CTRL-ALT-ALT should do.

Flandango

Yeah I edited the conf file an just added the "static ip_address=<ipaddreess>/24 at the end. Not sure if that actually configures anything for DNS Add the following two lines also: static routers= router's ip address static domain_name_servers= x.x.x.x x.x.x.x (First domain_name_server is usually your Router's IP, second can be a public dns s...

Flandango

So It's whenever i set a static IP for my MiSTer it is unable to connect to the update scripts. I guess I will just have to go back and forth if I want to use mister cast. Kind of a pain but It will do for now Out of curiousity, how did you configure the static IP address? Via dhcpd.conf? If so, did you configure it for static domain_name_servers ?

Flandango

If you press F9 from the Main OSD screen, does it drop you to the linux terminal/shell with a login prompt?
Also, can you post your MiSTer.ini file?

Alternately, you can add:
Code: Select all
[C64]
TCP_FLOW = 0
to the MidiLink.INI located in /media/fat/linux

Great! I wasn't sure since I didn't happen to notice any other setting being overwritten that way.

Ok I think I got it work without needing to use 64_Term... Settings as before... Bootup Habitat Disk 1 Enter Name and press F7 to enter Terminal type in atbaud1200 and press Enter then at&k0 and press Enter (that's a Zero)....you may get an OK response then atdthabitat.themade.org:1986 ....wait for it dial out before exiting terminal after it d...

Flandango

No matter how many configurations and attempts I tried, I couldn't "dial out" from within Habitat. I can dial out with CCGMS, but once you reset, the connection is also reset. So, I finally got it working but it requires the use of the original C64 Term program from Commodore. You can find it here first on list... Just like with your setu...

Flandango

That data can't be extracted from the rbf directly and I am not aware of any tool that can analyze it and give an estimate/report. The only way I am aware of is, as MostroW pointed out, to compile it yourself. To do that, you'll need to install Quartus 17, download the core's source from github, open up it's .qpf in Quartus, then Processing -> Star...

It's been a while since I last played it but here is the general setup to run that game: Make sure you save a backup copy of the floppy disks...If I recall correctly they are written/saved to by the game Under the Hardware menu, I have SAMS enabled, don't worry about TIPI if you don't have one. If you haven't already assigned a Disk DSR rom, you'll...

CRT from Direct VIdeo should show the OSD even if the core isn't producing a video signal. CRT from the I/O board won't display the OSD if the core isn't producing a video signal and the TI99/4A core won't produce a video core if the system roms are missing and the cpu doesn't initialize the VDP. Once the system roms are setup in the hardware menu ...

Flandango

Are you using HDMI or CRT? If crt, the OS may not show up since the core's video isn't initializing so you will need to use HDMI for the initial configuration of system roms.

Flandango

Try the attached test build. It should fix AD+D and Night Stalker. It should also fix the keyboard input as controller (Arrow Keys, F1-F6...).
If all looks good, I'll submit a pull request.

Flandango

Glad to hear you got it working.
A good place to find the latest INI file is on the Main_MiSTer github...here is a direct link to the file on the repo.

Flandango

What happens when you press F9? If you get to the terminal then try these steps: Login of course (U: root P: 1) cd /media/fat/Scripts ./update_all.sh It should kick off the update_all script and give you access to the menu. This just verifies that the actual script works and not just simply failing early. If it doesn't work, type the following two ...

Flandango

Check your MiSTer.ini file for this setting:

Code: Select all

fb_terminal=1

If it's set to 0, then you won't get a terminal.

Flandango

It also looks like the fan header wasn't soldered on....just pressure fitted.

Flandango

Yes, that's a 0 ohm resistor bridging the 5 volt line with the line going to the fan. To switch it 3.3v, you'll have to de-solder that resistor and attach it between the 3.3v line and the fan (middle pin hole)...just make sure there isn't any left over solder bridging the 5v with middle pin hole. Better yet, if you could, solder a 3 pin header in t...

Flandango

The jumper block for voltage selection (3 pins) should be right next to the fan connector. If you flip the board over you should see one of the outer pins (or in your case vias/holes) bridged with the center pin. Here is a link to the schematics of the official IO board (v6.0). IO6.0-Voltage-Selector.png If you can post a detailed picture of at lea...

This may be an issue:

Code: Select all

video_mode=1,1600,64,192,304,1200,1,3,46,162

try this and see if that helps:

Code: Select all

video_mode=1600,64,192,304,1200,1,3,46,162

Thunderstick works with Forgotten Worlds on Mister. Make sure the stick is in mouse mode, (Red) and use the free spinning knob, set the Way to spinner Is there a vid or a "how to" anywhere on this? I've read on how to put a stick into mouse mode, and it's telling me to hold the Mouse/EMU buttons, and things like that, and I have no idea ...

Flandango

I see that it's software configurable (Windows only of course) so you may want to check to see how it's configured. If you have the two buttons it came with attached to the spinner, you can swap between X and Y axis configurations if you hold them for 10 seconds so you may want to try that in case that's the issue. I don't have the new one only BSP...

Flandango

Isn't Favorites just another folder like Arcade/Console/etc?
I'm not near my Mister at the moment and don't currently use Favorites so I can test out so I may be naive, but...
If so, have you tried going into the Cores submenu? That should take you to the "folder" you launched the current core (in this case Favorite from)?

Flandango

Try, as MikeS suggested, turning the scaler off with

Code: Select all

vga_scaler=0

Unfortunately I don't have the means to test this myself.

Unfortunately, just yesterday I disassembled my controller and installed it in my ancient mame pedestal arcade so I don't have an easy way to test/recreate what I did but from what I remember and from the settings I still kept... First and foremost, verify you have the latest firmware for the controller and download the config tool (TS-RJConfigurat...

Ok I had previously copied part of the code, as mentioned earlier, which didn't work. But this time I just copied the entire file over and renamed it to "timezone" and it worked. There must have been more code hidden in the unreadable code that caused issue resulting in the OS replacing it with a newly generated one; which was of course ...
