Minimig AGA Issue

Hello. I got my MiSTer yesterday, and I've been playing Arcade roms on it, as well as Intellivision, Atari 8-bit, NES, SNES, Genisis, and ZX Spectrum roms. So it's all working great. The issue I'm having is that I can't get the Amiga running on it. I've looked at videos on YouTube, and when I hit F12, some of the options don't appear to be on mine ...

Re: Just Starting Out With MiSTer Some Basic Questions?

The simplest but most labor-intensive approach for loading console ROMs is to shut the Mister down, transfer the SD card to a desktop, and copy the ROMs you want into the games/corename directory. When you restart the Mister and load that console, you should then be able to load and run whatever ROM file(s) you copied. A more complex but easier ap...

Re: Just Starting Out With MiSTer Some Basic Questions?

Another question here, which adaptor would I need for an Intellivision Flashback controller?

Re: Just Starting Out With MiSTer Some Basic Questions?

I also forgot to mention the setting JTCORES for MISTer, enable it and you will get some cool stuff: SEGA16, CAPCOM and many more. I'm just about to check that out. I really appreciated your help here. It's such a simple thing, but when you don't know, you don't know. I felt myself getting a bit frustrated earlier! (hence I somehow missed what you...

Re: Just Starting Out With MiSTer Some Basic Questions?

Did you enable Mame Getter and HBMame Getter in the update all script settings? Start update all script, when it says it will start in 15s press the up arrow and go to Arcade ROMs Database and enable it, including HB ROMs. When I click on Update all, it then gives me the option to press up, and it goes to settings. It takes me to a blue screen wit...

Re: Just Starting Out With MiSTer Some Basic Questions?

Go on YouTube and look for "MiSTer FPGA setup" videos, there are dozens, and they will show you what to do step by step. Far easier to do it that way than posting individual questions. The videos on there seem to be ones about putting roms onto the SD card. It's also possible to download them straight to the MiSTer via Lan, isn't it? Lea...

It's probably quite simple when you know how.

Run the update_all script to bring all arcade games up to date and update all the other cores.

I did that. What should I do now? Sorry, I'm a bit lost here.

Re: Just Starting Out With MiSTer Some Basic Questions?

The amiga core is called minimig. The second sdcard isn't necessary, it can be used by some core but I don't know which. You can remove the sdcard using a toothpick and push it slightly, it will get out. But there is no need to take it off. You can upload al the roms using the network. Look in the script lists to see if you have a script call &quo...

Re: Just Starting Out With MiSTer Some Basic Questions?

Welcome to the MiSTer world. No need for a secondary SD card at the moment (some cores can utilise the secondary SD card, but most cores don't need it). What you definitely need is the sdram module. Can you check the description if your MiSTer is equipped with an sdram module? The genesis core is one of the few cores that can use the DDR3-RAM of t...
