lr-mame2010 - Nag screen and warning screen behaviour
-
@Melvin.FoX https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/MAME#lr-mame2010-on-github
Note: This emulator is considered experimental in RetroPie and has limited functionality. For example, only 2 players are supported.
it shouldn't be showing that screen but needs someone to fix the code. it doesn't even support more than 2 players. i would just use a megadrive/genesis emulator for streets of rage.
-
@iCLint Yeah I have the warning nag screen set to OFF on lr-mame2003 but they still display. Not a massive deal for me to be honest. As far as the game advice/warning screen from MAME goes I would leave that on as it will advise you of known non-working ROMs and direct you to one that actually works if it is in the same ROM set. Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you.
-
@dankcushions SOR on the Megadrive is superior to the arcade version, so I second this opinion.
-
@dankcushions I am building an arcade machine, not a megadrive clone console ;)
My arcade stick has no more than 2 players so I don't mind having only 2 players. It would be great if there will be someone to have it fixed because I would like to make it as much "silent" as possible (so such a loading screen apart from the one that I already have instead of Press A to configure screen is out of the question). I'd rather like not to have SoR than to make it visible. -
Im working on my mame 2010 as well. Any chance anybody can tell me where the file that has the nags and the dip switch settings are at?
-
@edmaul69 just use TAB on your keyboard when the ROM has loaded. You should get a menu including dip-switch settings.
-
@edmaul69 If that doesn't work try going into the Retroarch menu, again when a ROM has loaded. Click on "Quick Menu" > "Options". I think, off the top of my head but it's there, somewhere.
-
@columboscoat i know how to do all that. Im just trying to find the file/s.
-
@edmaul69 look in the mame2010 directory then. Sorry for disturbing you...
-
@edmaul69 I actually know where they are but I'm not going to tell you because you have a poor attitude.
-
@columboscoat your good. I looked in my mame-libretro2010 config folder i made, the original /mame-libretro/ config folder, the libretrocore/mame-libretro2010/ folder, the /emulators/retroarch/ folder and in the /configs/all/retroarch/ folder and i havent found anything.
-
I also know that the retroarch-core-options.cfg has stuff but i found nothing listed under lr-mame-2010 and nothing pertaing to mame dipswitches for individual games. And if the nag screens are listed just under mame_current_skip_warnings/_gameinfo/__warnings then i have those all enabled and lr-mame2010 boots roms fine for me.
Ok so i can confirm the nag stuff is enabled and lr-mame2010 boots just fine. Even with streets of rage. Still no clue where dipswitch settings files are.
-
@edmaul69 They are in Retroarch GUI. I don't believe they can be manually configured on mame2010. Not on the Pi anyway. Ask dankcushions, one of the mods, he's the resident MAME officianado. The nenu should be accessed via the TAB on your keyboard. You clearly want some other way to access it. I'm afraid I can't help in that case.
-
Still is there any possibility to hide those flashing loading screen on the beggining so it looks like on mame2003 (the game just loads without anything)?
-
@Melvin.FoX sure, if someone codes it.
-
@dankcushions your answer means that you are taking me as an idiot. And probably you have already seen that I helped or try to help few persons with their problems which some of them haven't been that easy.
What I am trying to say that your sarcastic answer was rude and on a forum like this one, moderators should represent some level of social competences and good manners.
If moderators will treat this forum as a playground and post garbage posts than I highly doubt it will be any how useful in term of a next year or two. -
@Melvin.FoX or it means that this is a community built on open source software and that if something doesn't yet exist in the code (such as removing the flashing screen on that game on lr-mame2010) anyone is welcome to code that function in (including you if you so desire).
You're reading into things too much. But I'll defer to @dankcushions to clarify his intent if he wishes.
-
@Melvin.FoX The only rude post I can see is yours. I would try another approach if you want people to help you.
-
@Melvin.FoX exactly as @herb_fargus said. you asked about the possibility - what other answer is other than what i gave? it's possible. it's open source. that experimental core is so barren of basic features that it can't see why anyone would work on it, like i said previously. we do get a lot of people asking for this feature and that feature - my to do list is long enough with just the things i want!
just because i'm a moderator doesn't mean i represent the retropie project. i just delete the occasional spam post because i'm always on here :)
