jotego @topapate Checking the sound of the original Aliens PCB after a report of a possible pitch error in the core. The PCB draws ≈10W off the 5V supply, it could be powered off a #MiSTerFPGA supply. Sound problem fixed. Silly typo introduced yesterday while looking into adding support for Super Contra. The updated files are available in the usual...

I just ran update all again. Now the rbf downloads.

jca

You can get it, along with the mra, from here:
https://github.com/jotego/jtbin/tree/ma ... s/releases

jca

If you are talking about Alioens it did not download the rbf. This core is in beta and only available to Jotego Patrons. If you are not a patron update all usually downloads the rbf, the zip but not the mra. You can download the mra manually but it is not useful as it won't be unlocked. The strange thing with today's update is that update all downl...

This solution Will have an unreasonable amount of one game directories, so it is not really practical in ny usercase.

This is why I said it was not a very elegant solution.
In any case it is not working as mentioned by @RealLarry as Save Settings does not save mounted FDD. When I made the post I was away from my MISTer and could not test it.

Hmm. Nothing happens, if I press F9 Is it something configurable in the ini? Running the latest version of MiSTer.

Check if you have
fb_terminal=1 ; 1 - enabled (default), 0 - disabled
in MISTer.ini.

Here is a wild suggestion: Change your mgl to <mistergamedescription> <rbf>_Computer/AtariST</rbf> <setname>Here is my Deja Vu (1987) (ICOM Simulations)</setname> </mistergamedescription> Create a games/Here is my Deja Vu (1987) (ICOM Simulations) directory. Place your Deja Vu (1987) (ICOM Simulations).st in that directory. Start the mgl, open the ...

Glad you solved it. I did not know that you had no way to connected to your MISTer, although I should have suspected it could have been a possibility. Instead of SSH you could have switched to the console by pressing F9 on the keyboard (if you have one) and proceed from there.

jca

There is no problem accessing this file but you have to do it under Linux. SSH into MISTer and vi /etc/dhcpcd/conf or whatever editor you want to use.
It is what I did to set my MISTer in fixed IP.

jca

There is a setting in update all: BIOS Database.

jca

No problem. It was just driving me crazy as I did not make the connection so to speak. May be I am a little too technical and did not read between the lines: if someone says GPIO17 there must be a document somewhere mentioning it and I will be looking for this document forever. That said these pins can be troublesome when you start FPGA. When I fir...

jca

As no one seems to understand what I am talking about I re-read @arago first post and here are the mentions of these pins in his own post. DE10 Nano has shorted GPIO17 (Reset), confirmed via multimeter the DE10 Nano had a short between GPIO Pin 13 all 36 GPIO1 pins (D0-D35) the GPIO1 Pin 17 (RESET) is shorted these are ignoring GPIO17 Where is the ...

jca

I already understood this from the start. This is not my question. The exact terms GPIO13, GPIO15 and GPIO17 have been mentioned (forget about the other denominations). Here is what @arago mentioned in the first post: " Where is the code that references GPIO17 and reads it. If there are more than one place, which one is critical for booting up...

jca

Thanks for the answer. I understood what you said in your first explanation. May be I did not make my question clear enough: "Where are these mentions of GPIO13, 15 and 17?" The question is about these exact terms: GPIO13, GPIO15 and GPIO17. Where do they appear? Clearly this information appears somewhere but this is wrong and should be r...

jca

This is really detective work and I am glad you figured it out. Recompiling the cores is a pain but at lest you have a temporary solution. Modifying MISTer main would be the ideal solution and I hope you figure it out. I have a question: Where are these mentions of GPIO13, 15 and 17? This is plainly wrong. They should be referred as J7 Pins 13, 15 ...

jca

A long long time ago this issue was extremely frequent until Sorge made some changes and the issue almost disappeared. I guess each core would have be modified to do a cleanup.

jca

Screen messed up when changing core is a rare occurrence. I always switch cores in the OSD and it has been a long time since I got a messed up screen. If it happens I do a reboot.

jca

Thanks to @Captain FPGA it is now possible to start the game without having to manually load the 3 bin files. He did his setup using the _Arcade directory, if you want to do the same look at one of his posts above. On the other hand if you did the installation as described in https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?p=71693#p71693 where you have the rb...

jca

@Captain FPGA Thanks for the files. I was surprised when you said the files loaded automatically. To do so a mra would be necessary but now I see that your mgl acts as some sort of mra. One thing I do not understand yet is the location of your Battletoads directory. I will try when I am back home. I won't use the Arcade directory as you did but the...

jca

This is really weird.
Could you post your mgl?
Did you place the Battletoads directory in games or games/mame?
I tried to make it work like you did but the files do not load automaticxally.

jca

But you still have to load the 3 bin files manually.

jca

Correct: updated fairly recently.
kchamp PCM fixed 24 minutes ago
hbarrel: removes debug information 53 minutes ago

jca

Fast Lane: fixed missing PCM.
Heavy Barrel: problem fixed (don't ask).
Added Y/C support for a bunch of cores.

jca

Added Moon Quasar & Portman.

jca

Sega 16 has been publicly released many month ago. No problem with the game here and I have never been one of his patrons.
Check all your jtXXX.rbf if some have a date stamp in their name delete them.

jca

May be you disabled them with a filer in dowloader.ini or may be they have to be enabled with a filer in dowloader.ini.

No CRT here so I cannot say.
From MISTer resolution display it says for native mode:
512x224 15.63KHz 60.8 Hz
Can your CRT do it?
