Re: Gauntlet
Hi guys, I´m unable to make it work on my Mister following the instructions:
"To play on MiSTer, place the gauntlet.zip ROM files in the folder rtl/boards/miSTer/_Arcade/mame, then copy the folder _Arcade as is to the MiSTer SD card root"
Just got a black screen. Maybe I´m missing something?
Regards

Re: Gauntlet
Did you already have a /media/fat/Games/mame folder on your SD card?
If so, ignore the instructions (and remove /media/fat/_Arcade/mame and its contents) and instead put the rom in /media/fat/Games/mame.
MiSTer used to use the former, then switched to the latter, but will exhibit problems if you have both.

Re: Gauntlet
The ROMs are actually attached to the first post in this thread within the RAR file, within the 'mame' folder.
As others have stated place this 'mame' folder into your 'games' folder, and not inside '_Arcade'.
@catenaccio - Considering your issues with setup etc, go and get Psylon's Updater, and put the 'update_all.sh' file into your 'scripts' folder and launch it... (by using the Scripts option accessed by pressing F12)
This should help you put everything into working order for you, although I wouldn't bother with the RENAME options, until you have gotten to grips with MiSTer as this can get confusing.
Good luck. By the way here is the link to Psylon's Update_All github:

Maybe my issue with black screen is due to a not valid ROM, I will try with another. Thanks!

Re: Gauntlet
Strange that you can't see the file 'Arcade-Gauntlet_20200812.rar' although I had to register onto the forum before I was able to see/download this.
That said, if you try to run that Psylon Updater script I'd mentioned, it can go off and populate you mame directory for you.
Personally I cant tell you if it does as I had gathered the rom file already, and if the rom is already there, then the 'update_all' script wont download said rom. Maybe PM tontonkaloun and ask him to send you the file?

Re: Gauntlet
Solved.... it was a ROM issue. Apparently, not all gauntlet.zip rom files has the required ones. Needed to download several to test.
Working with X-Arcade joystick with 2 players (Warrior and Valkirie).
Love this game!!!
Best regards

Re: Gauntlet
Just wanted to throw this up here:
https://github.com/d18c7db/Gauntlet_FPGA (Main)
https://github.com/d18c7db/Gauntlet_FPG ... er/_Arcade (MiSTer specific bit)
Updated a few days ago, (with the Alternatives too)
BTW - Also appears to be working on an implementation of Atari System 1, but don't rush to download just yet, no public releases, but as a heads up covers the following games:
Marble Madness (1984)
Peter Pack Rat (1985)
Road Runner (1985)
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1985)
Relief Pitcher (1986) (unreleased prototype)
RoadBlasters (1987)
Yes I'm excited for this project...

Re: Gauntlet
Okay, didn't actually realise this, as the version I was looking at was looking at mame220, whereas this build looks at mame223.
Also it's mra shows up as Gauntlet (Set14).
Didn't actually know where the guthub was as I'd taken it from the first post, well you live and learn.
Thanks for putting me straight.
Edited my post do direct a little better, and remove the incorrect statement about it being different.
