MiSTer FPGA Forum

I haven't touched a CRT since the 90s. Over the years, like many others, I've spent way to much time playing with filters to never be satisfied. Then one day, I said screw it, and picked up a CRT and I have been happy ever since and scratch my head sometimes wondering why I just didn't get one earlier. I mean people still give them away for free if...

How I remove sam? Just delete Scripts/.MiSTer_SAM ? Also, I noticed it's now creating temporary MGL files to load the game. But could we actually add support for using already created MGL files? For example I have a _Favorites folder with a few hundred files, it would be nice to just point to this folder and load random mgl files from that folder.

Wow, this script is exactly what I was looking for! :D So I have some mra files in various sub directory (_Arcade/_CPS2). I haven't tried yet, but I guess in the text file they would be listed with forward slash like /_CPS2/Street Fighter Alpha 3 (Euro 980904).mra? EDIT: Looks like you can't use sub directories? I tried with and without forward sla...

I wanted to bump this thread as I'm trying to figure out a way to do this as well. I did find this script which apparently loads a nes game every 5 minutes, so it sounds like it should be possible, although I haven't tried the script myself. I recently finished an arcade MiSTer build so I thought it would be awesome, especially now MiSTercade is on...

Yup, same problem here. I was trying to create a fresh sd card following the steps on the wiki using mr. fusion image.

I recently picked up one of these with the riser It's basically the same size as a standard arcade1up. I did a tear down and pictures are here I have a spare de-10 nano I'm going to use with this build. Does anyone know if the power can be wired to a power bar to place inside the cab? Or should I just get one of these ? There is a power switch and ...

Here is a project that used a web server running on mister arm to control cores

https://github.com/nilp0inter/MiSTer_WebMenu

You could use the interface on your phone and the core would load. I don't think there was anyway to load a rom into a console core though.

I've been trying to find any documentation on what this button does, but I can't find anything. The core docs don't mention it at all. Is this trial and error to figure out what it does for each core?

I did find this article

I think my controllers are the correct ones, nes-004, and they work on my AVS. I though maybe it was the bliss adapter, but it works on blisster, just not the snac.

I just recently got a new i/o board, and snac from misteraddons. I've got all the bliss adapters from back when I was using a blister and llapi. I was able to get genesis, sega cd, tg16 and snes working no problems. NES on the other hand, the two controllers I have, won't work. I've tested these on my avs and blister, so I know the adapter and cont...

I tried mounting a games vhd I built using the steps in flynnsbit's youtube video, but I get error "invalid drive specification" and "Secondary VHD not mounted" when using IDE 0-0 BOOT-DOS98.vhd. Is there anything I need to update in the os vhd or is my games vhd no good? It mounts fine under windows 10 and all the files seem to...

Very specific to raspberry pi but curious if possible to work with a mister perhaps? Small one player bar top, looks interesting.

https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/pica ... 0087489619

There are versions that come with a built in raspberry pi or one without and it seems the mister would fit perfectly inside this stick. Looks like versions without trackball as well, no buttons on side for pinball. A bit pricey but I might check it out. https://www.amazon.ca/Fightstick-Joystick-Controller-Raspberry-Console/dp/B089B8SMVJ https://www...

I just wanted to share an interesting script that allows you to use your phone, tablet, etc to run cores. This wasn't developed by me, but nilp0inter. Right now, it is in the early stages, but looks very promising once more features are implemented.

https://github.com/nilp0inter/MiSTer_WebMenu

I'm in Canada as well and I've ordered everything from misteraddons which in the US. I don't remember getting hit with any duties from about 3 shipments from porkchop.

Better hope you don't have large hands

Pretty neat, I didn't even know the C64 Maxi existed... and not available in NA. Sounds like they intend to ship to NA sometime this year.

How much playtime do you get from the battery?

~3 hours

I don't have a fancy case, but I do have a portable mister setup. :D byrD1lk.jpg McK5pPW.jpg It's a G-Story 11.6 Inch FHD Gaming Monitor (1080p 60hz) with a Anker PowerCore 13000 portable battery. The case was designed for a playsation classic or snes/nes classic, but it fits the de-10 nano, battery, and one controller no problem as you can see in ...

Very nice collection

Thank you Sorgelig and srg320!! Wow, so glad this is fixed.

SNES_20190609 doesn't work either for me.

Oh wow, those are old builds! Was 128MB SDRAM modules for MiSTer a thing back then? When I had issues with my SDRAM module, even though it passed memtest, it caused graphical glitches on Super Castlevania once I updated to SNES_20190719.rbf but the build I updated to previously worked fine, SNES_20190609.rbf. I'm guessing maybe the memory speed or...

Sorgelig wrote: ↑Wed May 27, 2020 4:24 pm Those who have intro problem, please test this version:
SNES.zip

Unfortunately doesn't fix it for me.

I just checked some older snes core releases as bootsector pointed out in the github issue. Just like bootsector, the last working version for me is SNES_20190204. Something happened between SNES_20190204 and SNES_20190225 to cause this I assume? As the atari forums are gone, so is the change log that Sorgelig maintained so I can't see what he post...

I just ordered another de-10 nano. This is bugging me too much. hahaha

Ya, it works fine with 32mb sdram switch or no switch. Ya, both switches I use are powered. I don't use an i/o board though.

Yes I love this keyboard, I have 3 of them for various devices.

Also, not sure if it helps, but I just ran latest memtest for 20 minutes at 140 with no errors.

EDIT: 90 minutes and still going no errors

Awesome NA based seller, got all my addons from him, fast shipping and great communication!
