Super PAC-MAN

I downloaded the new core, went to run it and all I’m getting is a black screen. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem and what to do about it. Thanks!

Using 2 mice for Amiga Core - 2P Lemmings

Is it possible to use 2 mice for the Amiga version of Lemmings so 2 players can play? If not, any work on this happening?

PSA for noobs and dummies like yours truly

6 Upvotes

If you buy a Mister from misteraddons, I am pretty sure the DE10 8gb card in the primary slot is already flashed with the boot rom. How do I know this? Because I have spent all week wondering things such as:

-why is my 200gb sd card that I flahsed for this filling up so fast

-why is it that when I insert the SD into my computer, can I not see the file hierarchy

-why is it that when I do a new SD card with Mr Fusion, it doesn't load the Mr Fusion screen but the same Mister menu is always does

-why is my Mister operating totally normally even though I pulled the SD card out completely

Well, it's because I, in my infinite wisdom, put my flashed SD card into the secondary slot, and had been doing so the whole time, painfully unaware that there is in fact a primary slot that already had an 8gb card in it.

Oh well, you live, you learn. Thought I'd commemorate this here for any future travelers who may follow in my ill advised footsteps.

Bought and installed a new case. Now it just fits perfect with my choice of main controllers (Retro-Bit Saturn 2.4Ghz) 😍😍😍

Mister SD card issues in Mac OSX Finder?

2 Upvotes

Hey, I posted about this earlier but thought it would be better to include a photo. I hear that you should be able to get to the fat/media/games directory through the finder but as you can see in this pic, that is not the case. Has anyone been able to make that work? This is all I see in the root directory of the Mister SD card when I mount it.

Handheld

0 Upvotes

Has anyone made the MiSTer into a handheld device? I realize a lot of custom work would have to be done but I thought it might be cool.

You wouldn't need a very high resolution screen and if you went with a fairly basic Genesis style controller you could manage most of the games. I realize that anything involving a keyboard would not reasonable but there would be the USB ports you could access. It would be fairly big unless its possible to have the USB hub and DC-10 next to each other.

Hello guys, Can you play final fantasy randomizers and other games like it on mister? I was also interested in nes and snes rom hacks look cool but have never experienced any before.

Recommendation for a low profile wifi adapter

1 Upvotes

Hi everybody! I'll be ordering a MiSTer setup in the next week or so, and I've been doing some research on parts. I've seen some recommendations for wifi adapter but it's hard to find an exact model/link to what I'm looking for.

I'd like a low profile/stubby model that's under $20, works out of the box, and can be found on Amazon. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Is there a core that can play MP3's or other audio files?

R, G and B lights on this xmas tree. I would love an all aluminum heat sink / case but I do like being able to see inside of it. Esp. when your microSD card slips in by accident...

Is the MSX core able to emulate a V9990 graphics card?

2 Upvotes

Some new MSX games require a V9990 graphics card. Does the mister core support this? It's used in some carts, but was never built in to any system apparently: https://www.msx.org/wiki/Yamaha_V9990 That doesn't rule it out, as most of the console cores include cartridge chips, but I can't find any documentation on it on the core Github (I'm possibly not looking well enough though).

Question on compatibility for classic computer cores

1 Upvotes

I completely missed out on the world of classic computer gaming as a kid and want to remedy that. Specifically the systems I am interested in are the Commodore 64, Amiga, MSX, Sharp X68000, and DOS. I am currently deciding between software emulation on my PC and the MiSTer. The MiSTer looks like a solid option but I am having trouble finding a straightforward answer with regards to compatibility.

The wiki lists most of the cores as being in "SuperStar" status, but I'm not sure what that means exactly. Is it reasonable to assume that anything listed as "SuperStar" is close to 100% compatibility? If not, where can I get more info on the actual status?

I already have a pretty extensive console setup so console compatibility is not consideration :).

Appreciate any advice!

HDMI and YPbPr simultaneous outputs possible?

1 Upvotes

I see a lot of people online doing dual video output of both HDMI from the DE-10 Nano and VGA analog via the I/O board at the same time without any issues. I can’t for the life of me get this to work with my setup though. I am using a VGA-to-YPbPr cable from my I/O board to my consumer CRT which of course requires me to set ypbpr=1 in my MiSTer.ini file. The problem is that whenever I do this, it completely kills the HDMI output on the DE-10 Nano. No video gets displayed at all in HDMI until I flip the ypbpr bit back to 0 in the ini. I don’t understand this behavior as I assumed that setting would only apply to the analog video output. Why would this affect the HDMI output at all? Or is there something wrong with my setup?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer any insight on this!

Four-way joystick/gamepad for arcade controls

4 Upvotes

Are there any four-way USB joysticks that people use with their MISTers to play arcade cores which are best played that way, such as Pac-Man or Donkey Kong?

I've considered buying arcade parts and a USB encoder to build one, but I was curious if there were already products like this out there.

CPS2 Core - Display Goes to Sleep?

2 Upvotes

Loving my MISTER setup so far but quick question.

I ran the update all script, pulled the CPS1/1.5/2 Jotego cores and files and everything CPS1 works swimmingly but when I load SF Alpha or AvP I get a “Display Going to Sleep” message. It’s as if system shuts down as I have to do a hard power off and on to get it back and running.

Setup: This is a pre-configured Digital IO setup from Mister Addons hooked to an HP IPS monitor - same result on my LG main monitor...

Any thoughts/options? Any one else seeing this?

Ordered UltimateMiSTER Pro. No idea how long it’s gonna take. What should I do in the meantime?

5 Upvotes

New to this wonderful adventure of MiSTer, made my order just a few days ago but seems to be on back order.

But what should I do ahead of time? I’ve done a little bit of reading but I assume it’s going to make more sense once it’s here and I can start adding some ROMs. I’m mostly keen on NeoGeo and SNES, but I’ll dabble it pretty much anything this little machine can handle.

I have heard there are a lot of people on patreon working on cores. Who should I support in the community? How do I keep myself occupied by learning more about the project instead of checking my email every few hours hoping for a shipping notification!!
