@darksavior said in What Exactly is the Raspeberry Pi 400?:

@Jiryn I use a flirc case for my pi4 but it's not enough so I attached a fan. It's stable just don't go beyond 2Ghz.

Same goes for my fanless aluminium Argon Neo case. I like its magnetic cover that can be easily removed to access the Pi's internal ports.

I am using redump.org site, to validate, that my roms are the good one. But it doesn't have all the systems.

@dankcushions

Ah sorry missed read that - that makes more sense - ok good so it is doing nearest neighbour!

@mattrixk Something I'd reccommend are the NDS Lego games, cause they're not just point and shoot games, but sometimes involve some simple problem solving. I'm enjoying playing Lego Star Wars and Lego Harry Potter.

@iandaemon What about the title "Lock N Chase" or that "Tower of Druaga" game, I remember in the Tower of Druaga: The Aegis of Uruk anime they had a cocktail arcade cabinet in the dungeon of that very game.

@hwornall Hi!

Had the same trouble. But this Arcade 1Up 12 in 1 Interface board is 5volts and the EG Starts EA-JM01 spinner is 3.3v.
How can you solved this?

Cheers from Brazil!

@ranma I worked on an install script for it once. Would you be willing to show yours? I would also like to know if your using drastic bios or the real deal. Did you emulate DSI?

@george-spiggott said in General Duckstation discussion:

Has anyone succeeded at running any games at 2x resolution at a reasonable speed? Even on an overclocked Pi4 doesn't seem up to this. This is certainly an emulator that will grow in usefulness as the capability of Raspberry Pis increase although I think I will probably stick with PCSX Rearmed in the short term.

I have been running a few games (spyro, ff1/2, crash bandicoot, ONE) at 4x res, with 32x msaa at over full speed (Vulkan hardware rendering). My pi4 is overclocked, but pretty much stock RetroPie.

@bytethis

i just buy a new 64gb microsd for a backup cause my hard disk with the backup of the microsd left me 2 days ago.

@knipik On Windows PC, go with Demul.

[I forgot to advertise here the April's and May's issues, but here's the June's one]

The June's issue of RANews is out!

RANews cover

Here's what to expect from it...

Featured articles: How to contribute if you don't want to be an achievement creator (spoiler: there's A LOT of ways) We're starting the DevNews segment talking about the DevQuests I share my tips about how to research a game to get ideas for an interesting achievement set (it's targeted for non-devs too!). ikki5 shares his old memories and tell us why "Robin Hood: The Prince of Thieves" is a cool NES game. A guide for Bomberman Quest (GBC) by Nepiki StingX2 officially starts the Top Masteries, with the champions of each console. SporyTike wants you fix the mess Baby Bowser made in Yoshi's Island in a "Spot The Difference" challenge. And the already traditional articles: mini-articles where community members talk about their favorite sets and why you should play them. a list of the current open gaming events. a list of the brand new sets released over the last month. statistics about the top 300 players of the site and how they progressed. a list of the most wanted games with no achievement sets yet. a list of all the revisions and rescores that happened over the last month. a list of all game icons and badges updates

Who here would be excited to emulate 3DS? I think we probably would have enough power to do so with overclock. I’m basing my assumption on the fact we can run some GameCube games at full speed with overclock on 64 bit

@mitu Whoops! I guess I didn’t check there. My apologies

@machs I third that.

@luckyluca said in Why separate Neo Geo system from Arcade?:

When making a copy of the core options to neogeo-core-options.cfg and changing to AES as suggested, should I also copy and add all fbneo core lines (there are plenty including lots of per-game dipswitches, one for each game executed)?

It's been a while when configuring it, I had just copied the entire file and made it act like an independent emulator. I actually don't know if RetroPie or fbneo will look for in "/opt/retropie/configs/fba/" first, if you load up a game from Neo Geo systems folder. If that is the case, then you can only include the differences you want to have in "/opt/retropie/configs/neogeo/neogeo-core-options.cfg" . If RetroPie requires you to have two different files, then you are probably out of luck.
Or you can try to use the "include" statement on top of the neogeo-core-options.cfg to point to the file from fba. But I don't know if this works.

As a sidenote, when looking through my old Raspberry Pi 3 installation backups, I don't see any neogeo-core-options.cfg files anymore, but retroarch-core-options.cfg. Not sure if the tutorial is outdated. Sorry for the late reply and I hope you get it working.

Also, would it be problematic using a rom not ending with h in AES neogeo mode?

Not at all. This was just my personal decision to use these specific versions of the ROMs. Although I couldn't spot any differences tbh

@windg That's a really good list there. Thanks for that! :)
