I've seen some reviews on YouTube saying you need to buy a bluetooth dongle/receiver? Is there a specific one I need to buy? This is why I prefer wired controllers, as it's just plug and play straight out the box. If you ever want to go bluetooth you'd need to get a usb bluetooth dongle, for ex. one of these https://mister-devel.github.io/MkDocs_M...

Same question as for the Nintendo NSO N64 controller? I asked a seller on eBay and he had no idea... I just want to plug and play straight into my USB hub without needing to buy another cable or adapter etc. Don't know about the Brawler, I have the Nintendo NSO 64 but didn't remember the cable so I checked here: https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/p...

Some games (for ex. Ocarina, Majora's Mask) require patching with the Patcher64+ Tool with 30FPS option enabled in order to get the higher frame rate. But there have been reports with Ocarina at least (don't know about Majora) on the Discord, of the 30FPS option causing certain glitches, possibly game-breaking, as certain actions and certain animat...

I tried Everdrive .z64 roms and NoIntro .z64 roms, located on an external USB SSD in ...USB0/Games/N64. Boot.rom, Boot1.rom and NB64-database.txt is in the N64 folder of the SSD and in the N64 folder of the SD-Card. You wrote NB64-database.txt , should be instead N64-database.txt . The latest one is here if you want to doublecheck yours: https://r...

You could also try video_mode=1200,1024,60 just to see. Make sure monitor input is selected correctly for the dvi connector you're using. Check if you have enabled settings video_mode_ntsc and video_mode_pal and if they are enabled that they are set correctly. And make sure your monitor really is 1280x1024 and not 1024x768 or 1600x1200 as some othe...

I use an Ultimate USB and an Ultimate Bluetooth and they both get rumble in for ex. the N64 core. I had to select the rumble pak option in the N64 core settings. Not sure if there's anything specifically different about the Ultimate "C" that would cause a problem (I assume you're keeping the MiSTer updated to recent versions of everything...

@aberu super helpful thanks for all the tips!

I'm temporarily on a network with multiple AP's that use the same AP names (SSID's) but provide different un-bridged IP ranges that can't talk to each other. For this reason I'd like to force the MiSTer to use a specific BSSID (specific AP) so that it can be on the same IP range as my laptop. In /media/fat/linux/wpa_suplicant.conf I tried changing ...

...my MiSTer since the update also has been dropping fuses like flies. I have an I/O attachment that is powered by a small fuse on the board itself.

Hello friends, I have a retrocastle snac adapter; this adapter supports the controller and memory card. However, I would like to use a Bluetooth controller and memory cards.

The N64 core was working for me a week or two ago but when I try it now I get a black screen after loading a ROM. Try with a recent MiSTer unstable binary overwriting the default one in /media/fat and power cycle the system. https://github.com/MiSTer-unstable-nightlies/Main_MiSTer/releases/tag/unstable-builds Also make sure your db is updated rece...

I am still only able to load the first game and, after I am done playing and try to load another game, the core hangs until I restart the core. It's a weird issue, regarding n64 issues I haven't seen this or heard of any reports of this particular issue where the 1st game load works and 2nd doesn't. Wonder if it could be a hardware issue such as w...

I am currently using the latest N64 core (12/20) and the latest MiSTer unstable (12/20), and I have tried every N64 and MiSTer unstable since fast ROM loading was enabled with the same results.

Figured it out. Turns out a custom video mode for the full resolution works just fine: video_mode=2560,1600,60 This was surprising because I thought the standard mode 14 (2560x1440 = ~ 3.7 million pixels) was pushing the max of what the MiSTer HDMI can deliver. 2560x1600 (~ 4 million pixels) is more than that, but it works. The second best option, ...

The monitor displays and stretches any mode I feed it (1080p, and MiSTer defaults 12, 13, 14), with vsync_adjust=0 to keep things locked to 60 Hz (tried vsync_adjust=2 but it was causing the monitor to freak out and blank to black repeatedly and one time a vertical line of pixels was shimmering on the left edge). There is unfortunately no option in...

This kind of monitor isn’t 50hz compliant

Thanks, believe that means I won't be able to play PAL games, I'll stick to the (US) ones .

Could try mode 14 (2560x1440). It has horizontal pixel doubling, but if your monitor maintains the original aspect ratio, it should be 1:1 (since 2560 will fill to the sides.) That's interesting thanks! I was probably looking at an older ini (not the latest from https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/blob/master/MiSTer.ini), which only had up...

OEM is most authentic no Q, but I find the OEM N64 wired and Switch Online N64 bluetooth controllers to have stiff and not very pleasant analog sticks imo. Don't have any problem with OEM NES and SNES controllers. If you want to stick to wired for low latency, I'm liking the 8BitDo Ultimate wired USB for N64, the analog sticks are in X-Box layout a...

The ASUS ZenScreen MB16QHG is a portable monitor w/WQXGA (2560 x 1600) - don't have one yet but considering it. This is one of their best portable monitors because it has a fold-down base with inputs (no wires sticking out of the sides of the display) and a full-size HDMI port unlike a lot of their other ones. I have a similar one in 1080p and it's...

I used patcher64++ to dink around and customize it. The rom boots on Project64 but not on MiSTer.

Meanwell is a great brand and there are others as well. If you search top electronics suppliers like DigiKey and Mouser you'll find a good number.

No problems with the fanless metal Mister Addons system, 1-2 years so far. Hate fans of any sort if I can at all avoid them and never like to add fans to things that don't need em because fans can fail and choke on dust.

I've seen a few recent reports of this, try moving the current config out of the way and restarting the n64 core, it will create a new fresh config.

Before I purchase, checking if anyone knows if DUAL Raphnet USB adapters are supported by MiSTer. These are adapters that take 2 GameCube controllers, or 2 N64 controllers, or 1 GC and one N64 and adapt them to a single USB port that plugs into 1 MiSTer USB port. 2 N64 to 1 USB: https://www.raphnet-tech.com/products/dual_n64_to_usb_adapter/index.ph...
