RBF files no longer downloading?

Unread post by Swainy »

For some reason when I run the update all script, it’s no longer downloading RBF files for the arcade cores. Any suggestions please guys?

I am not sure if something has changed but now when I try updating I get an error for every Core that needs updating saying that I should put PARALLEL_UPDATE=“false” in the update.ini !?!

I guess you download the RBF arcade files before? So you deleted them and want to download again? Or is it the CPS2 ones you want?

Well it’s only Jackal & Iron Horse which were released this week that I’ve had problems with but if I delete an arcade game along with its RBF file, when I run update all the RBF file does not download.

That's because the script "thinks" those are still present. Each time you miss something and want it to be redownloaded, you must delete files ->

Code: Select all

.../media/fat/Scripts/.mister_updater/update.last_successful_run
.../media/fat/Scripts/.mister_updater/update.log
to force a resync.

How about Cave games? I only get DDP from the 68000 ones.

Well strangely enough, my MiSTer has now started downloading RBF files once again.

The Cave games have been fine on mine.
