MiSTer FPGA Forum

we're using connections closer to true RGB while Apple II uses composite? I translated the hex RGB values from the reference post by Linard Ticmanis... There are some slight differences (darker hue for sRGB) but the difference is nowhere as dramatic as the one posted above. I wonder if something is wrong in the core that cause the colors to be so ...

I had the files with the normal extension, I just renamed them to .sgx and it worked

It looks like an issue of tweaking the deadzone for an analogue controller.
I suggest you post this in the "other computers" sub-forum where there is an Apple II thread.

F4 - 80/40 (this is a toggle switch on my Apple IIc, not sure about IIe) F5 - Keyboard (this is a toggle switch on my Apple IIc, not sure about IIe) My (French) IIe has only one keyboard switch, that changes it from US to French version by changing the character set. Not sure what the switch does in a US or UK machine, though. That said, these swi...

I'd say that is a feature, not a bug

Also, can you try using the Gamma options? When I compared my MiSTer to Applewin, I got pretty close to ha e the.same colors using a high (170+) gamma filter.

Maybe this could be converted into a core, and instead of using physical knobs have a screen-based interface: http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_sid.html You would probably still need a MIDI keyboard for it though (unless you simulate it via a keyboard). But there is also the question of why not use a regular computer core with software synth, if MIDI is...

Works now!

There is a setting for OSD rotation in MiSTer.ini (left or right).
I'm not sure if any cores use this to automatically choose their orientation, but technically it would be possible (and pretty neat)

Did you check your list vs. the Arcade organizer script? Would be good to validate the script.

3) I am pretty sure the colors are not correct. There are two gray's in GR mode (and DHR) and I think they look pretty close to identical, but on the MiSTer, they don't. I have an actual Apple IIc if you need me to take pictures comparing the two. The colors in the core were taken from this newsgroup post: https://groups.google.com/g/comp.sys.appl...

Thanks for this. I need to practice my soldering on these boards...

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07C69ZRYV/ I have one of these and I liked it a lot, but I ended up getting one of these too: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07STY21PS Unfortunately it mustn't have sold well since it's out of stock :( The gamepad is mediocre, but works well enough try something quickly without reaching to your proper controller. T...

Could you check your MiSTer main version, and also make sure you go past the mouse emu options? (don't hit Enter or it will exit the mapper)

Is it possible to build an Amiga keyboard only with new parts + a KeyRah?

At the moment I think there are still no keycaps (at least)... and seeing some of the prices,
it may be cheaper to just buy an Amiga 500 and replace the motherboard...

It's just a bunch of wires going to an Atari "standard" DB9. There are two buttons alright, but they're simply interchangeable. Good luck "programming" them ;) There is the Amiga standard, where you can wire a 2nd button to the DB9. Then it can be mapped inside the MiSTer core to anything else (even Up). But I agree that only 2...

I really liked these mini joysticks from Arcade Forge. I have one in a different color: arcade_mini_joystick.jpeg Unfortunately they don't make them anymore. As a replacement, I tried to make as small a joystick as I could using Sanwa innards and a case from AliExpress. There's a bunch of super cheap acrylic cases like this one: https://www.aliexpr...

Your sheet is not viewable publicly, check the share settings

Not mask related, but what version/hack of SF2 has people in Honda's bathtub?
Never heard of that (and I heard a bunch of SF2 rumors bitd)

It's going to be core by core, sadly.

hello, can someone share his mister .ini file using 1440p? i'm pretty sure i miss something . I would appreciate very much, thankyou! I use this with my AOC U34G2 using PBP (filling half of the screen with 1720 pixels): video_mode=1720,128,184,312,1440,1,3,46,209550 On the Win10 side, I use HRC to quickly change resolutions between 3440 and 1720 h...

What does debug mode give you?

Sounds like the power circuitry of the Blisster took the hit

A lot of that is personal comfort but it does feel better to use some cool and efficient. Yes! It's often ignored but power consumption on FPGA is usually lower than the original machines. It's even lower jf therr us no ARM present (I forgot what it was on MiST but its lower than the DE10 Nano). By that standard an accurate FPGA core is a much bet...

Looks like I never replied, but the buck converters are perfect for my build!
I found one that outputs 5V on a USB socket, so it works great for a MiSTer setup.

What game are you trying to run? This mapper is for only one Chinese translation, so if it's not that one your ROM may have an incorrect header.

Is there a list of games for it?
Even a handful of selected titles unique to the platform is interesting to see.

If you'd like some more variety, don't forget there are spinner-compatible games for the Atari and Apple II cores

Just get a R.O.B.

This is what this option does

forced_scandoubler=1

It makes it go from 15khz to 30khz

You don't even need to edit the wiki if you at least post what didn't work for you or ask for help about it.

Just complaining doesn't help anybody.

If I'm not mistaken, if you autoboot into an arcade core then when you switch cores the file selection will already be inside the _Arcade menu.

What would you suggest to change?
