MiSTer FPGA Forum

Ok, the “no change is good change” zealots can now throw stones. I'm not going to throw stones, but what is stopping you, and all the others in this thread who want things simpler, to download the sources, and make a front-end for yourselves ? As mentioned above, I’d chip in some cash if someone with the skills wants to do it. I don’t have the ski...

I believe that my concern is misunderstood, the topic is getting further and further away from my original proposal. I'm NOT talking about a fancy user interface with graphics and animations. It's really only about deactivating the options with which a console player cannot do anything. This affects less the settings of the individual cores and pr...

I vehemently agree with the opposition. In fact, I take my view further and hereby support eliminating all backgrounds, menus, update scripts and other niceties. We need to move everything to command line only for the specific purpose of keeping the non-nerds at bay. I oppose all further non-core improvements.

The UI can't get any simpler, it's practically moron proof. How can it get any simpler ? Pick system, press button, profit. Even updating is all done for you, via scripts, you just have to select what type of update you want. Seriously, I knew Feck all about Mister, or Linux. I now know enough to use this, configure it, and do other stuff which in...

I use an hdmi to vga converter with my JPAC and it works fine.

Just point it to your romset and run it. You should be good to go.

The roms work fine in HBMAME and MAME, so I’m thinking that the roms are decrypted, but I’m not sure of that.

The roms are there (dkongx.zip) and it works in hbmame on the pc, but I haven’t been able to get it to work on MiSTer. I tried making an .mra but it freezes on me at the opening sound. Any suggestions? I think it might be because the original required an add on board, which might require a new/altered DK core for mister.

I’d just put the betas on a different script and keep update_all clean.

NeoGeo Puzzle Bobble is a blast when played head to head. My girls love it.

Agreed - my comment was unnecessary hyperbole. It would be a greatly appreciated feature. My MiSTers are in arcade cabinets and would benefit greatly from a simple way to change games for guests who would enjoy changing games.

My kids have the interface figured out.

Certain folks will make excuse after excuse against this, but it is absolutely necessary.

I have two MiSTers, one in a vertical PacMan cab and one in a horizontal Stargate cab. Both are hooked up through Jamma interfaces, J-Pacs, audio amps and original 15kHZ monitors. I just installed the horizontal one the other day because I was so fed up with my NeoGeo MVS and 161-1 combo. Instead of buying the Darksoft cart, I went ahead and did th...

Good catch. I’ll do an update and report back.

To follow up, I reverted to an older version of the mister software (10/2020) and got everything working. Not sure why the new version crashes it.

I just bought a jpac and have the same issue.

I tried the same thing for a while on the BitKit, but switched back to regular DK because I liked to “smoothness” and challenge of the game better. Good luck!

Awesome on bump and jump! I’ve wanted screen flip on this one for a while!

It has been this was for me for a while. Unplayable after the first few waves.

Pause for Pac-man would be cool if you’re taking requests. Thanks for all of your hard work!

This is a great game. Also called Rush ‘n Crash in some places.

Wait - Speed Rumbler? Yes!!!! I was so close to pulling the trigger on the PCB the other day. Glad that I waited. Jotego is the man!

Same issue here for the last few weeks.

This feature was recently added. You may have been watching older videos. I’m not sure if there is a disable command.

Can you go into the menu and hit reset once the core is loaded? Sometimes mine gets stuck on the black screen and this fixes it.

BTW, I’m really enjoying this core. Thanks to the developer on this!

Update all hasn’t been working right for me for a couple weeks.

Super Mario Brothers - my kids loved it (and so do I).
