Re: Tamagotchi Core by agg23

Thanks for the work on the core agg23, and thanks for the thorough documentation and for having a detailed commit history, it's useful for anyone wanting to troubleshoot their own tamagotchi emulator as well.

Re: Robotron X Double Joystick Issue?

What happens when you use a USB gamepad instead? Same behavior? If so it's something that might need fixing in the core (software is causing some kind of inversion of the axis on one joystick when that setting is turned on), if not then it could be something in Main or in your hardware layout.

Re: Python for MiSTer system scripts

Python is supported already, you call the script from within a bash script.

Requests to add more python modules to the image will likely not be accepted though as the image is kept purposefully very small.

it's pretty much impossible to brick a MiSTer. Worst case scenereo, you have to copy your saves to a pc and reflash your sd card.

The sound chip support is the largest chunk of what makes ao486 so huge. If everything except for one soundblaster 16 implementation were removed it would probably save a good chunk of space.

The whole secrecy thing is annoying. He said it’s in case the core isn’t doable but he announced PSX knowing it may not be doable. Makes no sense.

Re: Would Cloud FPGA Gaming be feasible down the road?

The only advantage would be shaving about 1 frame off in the whole signal chain that is already overwhelmed by latency. When you do cloud gaming there is a balancing act between the quality of the video stream and the latency. Better latency usually means worse video quality, and vice versa. You can get both, but the bandwidth goes up a ton. Then t...
