Oh nice, I didn't spot that. Jaguar and CD certainly has a decent homebrew scene, so it adds up there.

That would be really exciting if it is Jaguar.

Moondandy

Very exciting to hear Robert is starting another core. It's fun to speculate based off of what he has teased. The few facts from the post are: It's a MiSTer core (i.e. it's not N64 or something running on a board more powerful than the DE-10, like his abandoned 2DS core) There is homebrew for the system (rules out a number of things, and means it's...

Moondandy

Do you have a digital or analogue iO board? If you have a digital and it came with 32mb of RAM, then put that 32MB stick in slot B and you will get the benefit of having dual RAM on the WIP cores that support it (Saturn and Jaguar).

Moondandy

This is great news, I love NARC.

Moondandy

Oh nice, thanks for yet another core Pierco. I hope you have a very merry Christmas!

The core has been ported to MiST by Gyurco and it fixes a lot of problems of the original one. The thing is that I can't find the time to apply the changes to the MiSTer core yet...

Did you ever get round to bringing these improvements over to the MiSTer core?

Moondandy

Oh wow, congrats on the core! Are you planning to add it to Main for an official release?

What actually is SLIP?

Moondandy

Thanks for adding this is really fun, I had been playing the SG-1000 version the other day that is 2D, didn't realise the arcade version was 3D isometric.

Be worth posting in the updates thread this core is out so it appears as a news update so more people know about it.

Moondandy

Hi guys, there has been a lot of talk about the Sega SG-1000 over the past few days on the discord, a lot around the best way to play the system on MiSTer with both the ColecoVision and SMS cores being able to load the games, so I thought it would be good to start a thread on this system. A quick overview for anyone unaware, the SG-1000 released in...

Moondandy

If you grab the script from here and put it in your MiSTer scripts folder you can just run it from your MiSTer menu
https://github.com/theypsilon/Update_All_MiSTer

Moondandy

If you use the bios_getter script (included as part of the update_all script) it will download all the BIOS files you need for the different cores and correctly name them. I strongly recommend just using update_all (although it is unofficial, but run by the same person who maintains the official downloader script).

Moondandy

Would the BIOS need to be stripped out and loaded separately or is there no copyright issue on this one?

Moondandy

Been having a go of this core this evening and it's working really well, being able to load the roms from the OSD is great, good effort! Is there much left to do before this can be released officially?

Moondandy

Oh, that's interesting, so is there a compiled rom file of this that could be potentially used on MiSTer?

Moondandy

Thanks for the info chaps, much appreciated. Without breaking any rules about requesting/posting roms, have these two carts been dumped so if someone were looking to implement multicart loading into the core they could test these two? I can see that the MegaCart is out in the wild, and that one is confirmed to run on MiST.

Moondandy

Oh, very interesting, I didn't know about this implementation. I wonder if this could serve as a starting point for someone interested in making a core of it.

Moondandy

The possibility of a TI-83 core was mentioned in another thread, and has come up before, so I thought it would be worth starting a thread for it and discussion about any other calculators. I imagine a lot of us had to go buy one of these back in the day for school, and likely have them gathering dust in a box somewhere (I've had a look for my old o...

Moondandy

Does anyone have a list of what VIC-20 multicarts are out there? Are there exclusive contents on any carts? The more info there is on what is out there then the more chance of getting support added.

Dropped 8 months back. Probably could do with a sys update looking at it, hasn't been updated since then.

https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Lynx48_MiSTer

Moondandy

Oh wow, this looks horribly convoluted
http://www.nyangau.org/rememotech/usage.htm

I wonder if this core is so esoteric it would be better to be built from the ground up rather than try make this core work like other computer cores.

Moondandy

Hey guys, I've been looking at this core and trying to figure out how to load anything, but am hitting a brick wall. Has anyone been able to load anything and have a step process to do this?

If there is a working way to do this then it would be possible to add a load option on the OSD and make this much easier to use.

Moondandy

So are you no longer adding your cores to Main and releasing them officially when completed?

Moondandy

I have and it isn't clear to me, all it says is: Coin-Op Collection Downloader A collection of open-source FPGA implementations of classic arcade hardware for MiSTerFPGA written by Darren Olafson or atrac17. Distributed by Jose Barroso, creator and maintainer of Update_All_MiSTer, Downloader_MiSTer, and Distribution MiSTer. This repository is maint...

Moondandy

I am a bit confused by this new Coin Op database. Is this just for Attract17 and Darren0's WIP cores, and finished cores will still be merged into Main and released officially, or are all these cores now unofficial and you will need to use an unofficial script to get them?

Moondandy

Is this core getting close to being able to be added into Main?

Moondandy

Hi, The Minimig Core on the MiST recently gained CD audio support (CD support was only recently added without CD audio streaming) and people have been testing CD32 games via the IDEFix 97 CD32 Emu program. Different FPGA's used I know, but maybe the MiST code will help to port this feature to MiSTer? https://github.com/mist-devel/mist-binaries/tre...

Moondandy

Oh wow, that's a big deal if it is loading CDs. I imagine that could be ported over fairly easily, didn't the MiSTer Amiga core have it's beginnings based on the MiST core?

Moondandy

Has anyone had any luck getting other non G&W LCD games built and working with the core?

Moondandy

Great stuff, congrats on yet another core! Really enjoying seeing more of these obscure systems I don't own come to MiSTer and be able to finally play them. Can't wait to see what you do next.

Moondandy

Will Mame Getter or HBMame Getter grab this one at some point? Be nice if a script could grab a premade copy of this one.
