      @Folly Also, one game i have says it needs/lacks PRODOS on the main screen inside the game and will not run . Is there another disk I must find and boot it up with or is it a missing bios file -or- neither?

      I'm going to go delete that directory you said. Ty again.

        @Folly Another thing- switching to Archimedes- I tried to open .jfd files and that did not work.

          Yes, correct the mame tab key works with your line. (testing on my computer)
          So your problem is something else.

            With a command you can easily see what kind of media is supported :

            pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -listmedia aa5000
            SYSTEM           MEDIA NAME       (brief)    IMAGE FILE EXTENSIONS SUPPORTED
            ---------------- --------------------------- -------------------------------
            aa5000           harddisk         (hard)     .chd  .hd   .hdv  .2mg  .hdi  
            aa5000           floppydisk       (flop)     .mfi  .dfi  .hfe  .mfm  .td0  .imd  .d77  .d88  .1dd  .cqm  .cqi  .dsk  .ima  .img  .ufi  .360  .ipf  .adf  .apd  .jfd  .ads  .adm  .adl  .ssd  .bbc  .dsd  .st   .msa  
            aa5000           printout         (prin)     .prn  
            aa5000           romimage         (rom)      .bin  .rom
            

            Seems .jfd files are supported.
            Could be anything why the files aren't working.
            Would be guessing so I can't help you with this.

            Edit (just a few suggerstions) :

            • be sure you don't run the file with basename runcommands
            • try both -flop1 and -flop3 runcommands

              Probably, just like it says, it needs PRODOS.
              Try and find a disk with PRODOS and boot with that.
              Then try to boot the game.

                @Folly I'm now getting a very weird error and some of my ADAM games aren't running. Any idea what could be causing this? All of the .dsk games seem to still work, but all the .ddp games just kick right back out to ES.

                Any idea what could be causing this as my .ddp games did work before.

                  I can't really tell by looking at your logs.
                  The first log shows that it breaks in the run_mess.sh script but then the problem is not revealed.

                  So I got a pitfill.ddp image and tested it directly on mame.
                  My file is :
                  pi@raspberrypi:~/RetroPie/roms/coleco/adam/ddp-flop $ sha1sum *
                  58ec9355d20edb335f56d372051812c45d891caf Pitfall! (1987) (Telegames USA) (ADE-SD DDP Patched).ddp
                  ( do you have the same file and what size is it ? )

                  With above image I get this message from the mame log :
                  Fatal error: Device 5.25" single-sided double density floppy drive load failed: Unable to identify the image format

                  If you have the same error it's not revealed in your log when using the run_mess.sh script with the retroarch lr-mess core.

                  So somehow I think that this file needs a DSDD drive to work as the file is also bigger than 160kb.
                  This probably also means that BIOS roms are missing as you can select DSDD drives in the MAME-GUI (BIOS section).
                  Could be that you had a DSDD drive selected earlier when it worked or ,
                  you used another file that worked earlier and mixed those up somehow.

                  Let me know what file you used and we can look again.

                    @Folly Thank you! That gives me more to look into! Also, how can I set it so I can see more of the log to see what is causing it to break? I do think my BIOS files are correct and I will look at the checksum of the Pitfall game but I'm pretty sure it is the same.

                    Also, where on the Pi is that MAME config stored so I can look to see if something has changed?

                      @Folly This is what MAME Currently says when I load up a .dsk file. Although I cannot see it when I load a .ddp file as I cannot get them to load:

                      Pac-Man Screen Shot 1-30-23, 11.59 AM 2.png

                      I'm just really baffled as to why all my .ddp files worked before and now they do not. I really do not know what could have changed and I've exhausted all my knowledge trying to figure it out!

                      Also, here is the checksum from my adam_ddp.zip BIOS that I am using:
                      9405e8f37199841244222fa70f9db3d3

                      Does it match yours?

                        I have a .7z file so the sha1sum is different but files inside could be the same.

                        Indeed strange that it worked before.

                          I have it working now in mame and lr-mess and also with lr-mess running from the run_mess.sh script.

                          I assumed .ddp was a floppy image but it turns out DDP's ( Digital Data Pack ) are cassettes.

                          This is the output of the extensions of mame :

                            @Folly Same for me. So I wonder what could be causing it not to work?

                            Is there another log somewhere I could check?

                              Same for me

                              Looked at your first log again.
                              I see you already used cass1 and it didn't work.

                              Did you use the valerino module-scripts to install ?
                              Are you able to run it with mame ?
                              What run_mess.sh do you use ? ( what is the sha1sum ? )
                              Which version of lr-mess do you use ?

                                @Folly Here's my run_mess script I'm using:

                                My version of lr-mess is dated 2/24/2021 with a filesize of 182,836,700

                                Is there another log I can check to see why those .ddp files stop and kick me back out to ES?

                                  @TPR What is the last version date of either Mess or MAME that the game & Watch games use? Just curious. and if it is mame, that mame is called plain old "MAME" in the retropie , correct

                                    @TPR said in Old Computer Appreciation Thread:

                                    Your run_mess.sh script is the original from valerino.
                                    I use the updated one of RusselB with these changes.
                                    Though I think it's probably not related to the run_mess.sh script.

                                    Is there another log I can check to see why those .ddp files stop and kick me back out to ES?

                                    Yes, for a better log it's best to run it with mame standalone.
                                    This is an adapted runcommand for mame standalone (for you):

                                    mame-adam-cass1 = "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -rompath /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS\;/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/adam -cfg_directory /opt/retropie/configs/adam/mame -v -c -ui_active adam  -cass1 %ROM%"
                                    

                                    You can just paste it in your emulators.cfg of /opt/retropie/configs/adam (at least I assume it is there )
                                    Verbose mode (-v) is always on, so no need to change it when booting the .ddp)
                                    Make sure you have mame standalone installed from the exp packages.

                                    Let me know what your log gives.

                                    P.s. You may remove the run_mess.sh from your previous post.

                                      @Folly I do have stand-alone MAME installed.

                                      I used that runcommand...

                                      It loaded up to "initializing" and then booted me back to ES.

                                      Where can I find the MAME log file at? I can't seem to find it in any of the more obvious places in my directories.

                                      Here is what my runcommand log file says:

                                      Parameters:

                                        Where can I find the MAME log file at? I can't seem to find it in any of the more obvious places in my directories.
                                        Here is what my runcommand log file says:

                                        The runcommand.log is the mame log.

                                        Sadly also not working, doesn't seem to be due to the bios files and the emulators.

                                        Not sure either on what the problem could be, I will have to think again on what the problem could be.

                                        I have just checked my log with yours and yours is missing a line like this :

                                        :net3:ddp:cassette: opened image file /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/coleco/adam/ddp-cass/Pitfall! (1987) (Telegames USA) (ADE-SD DDP Patched).ddp with flags=00000003
                                        

                                        So somehow it looks that the .ddp file isn't loaded.

                                          Can you try to run it directly from the CLI ?
                                          (press F4 in emulationstation and you should get in the CLI)
                                          And then try to manually load your rom with mame, with this command :

                                          /opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -rompath /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS\;/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/adam -cfg_directory /opt/retropie/configs/adam/mame -v -ui_active adam -cass1 "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/adam/Alcazar (1986) (Telegames USA) (ADE-SD DDP Patched).ddp"
