The fact that the PS1 core even works at all amazes me, never mind that it's as good as it is. Creating even a simple 3D chip from scratch is amazing work.

Running TR1 on the PS1 core probably won't look as good as OpenLara, but it will work, and will be very low latency.

That would be a cool feature, but probably not that useful unless the Hercules emulation becomes more complete, which looks like a serious pain in the butt. Just documenting how it even works looks like a pain, never mind implementing it.

I guess my aging brain has let me down again, then. Wordperfect 5.1 used function keys very heavily, and I thought F11 was one of them, but I haven't touched it in probably thirty years.

Yeah, if you're getting disk errors like that, reverting to the standard ROM is an excellent idea. Fastloaders in general tended to fail with the copy protection on many games.

Might be worth running a chkdsk on that drive. The FAT may have been damaged.

The Mister has a weak CPU, and it might struggle to run that.

For others: it looks like OpenLara is an open-source engine to run the original Tomb Raider.

The last time I was really using Minimig, the 68020 was pretty slow. It felt fairly accurate, much slower than WinUAE with an emulated 68040. I was playing XCom, and the globe rotation was quite sluggish, where it was pretty snappy under WinUAE.

That reference to 110MHz doesn't match my experience at all. Has something changed?

Aha, thank you. I know there are physical connection differences between XT and AT keyboards, so them only going to F10 makes sense.

Could be alts trying to perpetuate fraud.

Any community that gets upset over you trying to protect yourself from people you don't know isn't worth joining. They've gotten too insular.

Terasic can sometimes fix them, depending on the problem. They'll probably charge you, but they'd be the place to check first.

Didn't XTs have F11? If they did, or could use a keyboard with that key, mapping the mode switch there could interfere with real software. Win-F11 might be better, like Win-F12 is used in AO486 as the menu key. There were definitely no Windows keys until much later.

If XT function keys only went to F10, then obviously it wouldn't matter.

I just had a thought: BASICA and GW-BASIC are almost identical in terms of dialect and syntax, but do they have identical on-disk format? Maybe if it doesn't work on one, you could try loading it on the other?

The ST core also supports the 020. It's probably using the TG-68K code for that part.

Hypothetically, it would probably be possible for the front end to record inputs to a file and then replay them later, but that's probably something you'd have to add yourself. There doesn't seem to be any real TAS presence in the Mister dev community so far.

The .2 was the important part, as far as I could tell. It was very deliberately different than your main .1.

But, hey, if it's working, off you go.
