Sega model 3 #segamodel3

Folly

It will take a bit longer for me to make the module-script better.
There is an issue with moving the NVRAM and Saves directory.
If these directories already exists in the rom directory the source files are not moved and then a link is nested inside the directories.
I will have to find a good solution for that.

To be continued.....

Folly

@mechafatnick @DTEAM

I think I have fixed the issues.

I have chosen to update all the files from the source.
So we can see how the fixes in the source evolve.

The Supermodel.ini will be backed-up to Supermodel.ini.old when installing or updating.

I removed the old runcommand-lines and added 3 different resolution lines without extra options as the are now in the ini.

DTEAM

@folly
Should I copy paste the new script from Github or I can update it from source in the blue menu in Retropie (I already installed your first version of the script)

New edit: I copied pasted it from Github. What's the difference between supermodel-mechafatnick.sh and supermodel-svn.sh?

Your new supermodel-mechafatnick.sh works well!!!

Folly

@dteam

Great !

No problems with the menu anymore ?

The svn version is a version that is created from the pure source from sourceforge.
It patches some files on the fly so it will compile on rpi.
I created it just before we got the github link from @mechafatnick .

It's a bit obsolete but for now, I keep it in there, you never know.

DTEAM

@folly @mechafatnick
No problem with the menu.

Just one question. When you are playing a racing game and you are in the options menu at the start. Do you have a problem with the sensitivity or the auto-center when choosing your car or your race track? In the game itself it's good but in the menu it's different. Is there an auto-centering option "enabled" on it?

Folly

@dteam

What game are you referring too ?

@Folly Great work! Well done! that's tremendous stuff. Now we can bring Model 3 emulation to the masses.

@dteam
Picking stuff is a bit tricky because its intended for the full rotation of a sterring wheel :) you can try messing with your deadzone/saturation if you want. That might help:
add to the ini and play with the numbers (saturation reduced the far end of motion of your stick)
InputJoy[controller number]XDeadzone
InputJoy[controller number]YDeadzone
InputJoy[controller number]XSaturation
InputJoy[controller number]YSaturation

All controls have to go into the GLOBAL section. Some games let you configure the controls from the test menu too.

DTEAM

@mechafatnick
What is the range for deadzone or sensitivity (1-100?)

Some games let you configure the controls from the test menu too.

I'll try that also

That might help:

add to the ini and play with the numbers (saturation reduced the far end of motion of your stick)

InputJoy[controller number]XDeadzone

InputJoy[controller number]YDeadzone

InputJoy[controller number]XSaturation

InputJoy[controller number]YSaturation

This is a great idea

Now we can bring Model 3 emulation to the masses.

They create 3 new logos for New Comic Book Theme Thanks to @MrSeven The first one seems to be the chosen one alt text

NEW EDIT:I found this for Keyboard and mouse here . For Joystick they use none. I suppose I have to replace NONE by your lines? I'll try It and give you news about the performance of those settings. thanks again

Input System Settings

Input System: DirectInput

Keyboards:
System Keyboard
Mice:
System Mouse
Joysticks:
None

Common Keyboard Settings:
Sensitivity = 25 %
Decay Speed = 50 %
Common Mouse Settings:
X-Axis Dead Zone = 0 %
Y-Axis Dead Zone = 0 %
Z-Axis Dead Zone = 0 %

Folly

@dteam

You mean, for pasting inside the Supermodel.ini then it should be something like this :

; Common Keyboard Settings:
Sensitivity = 25 %
Decay Speed = 50 %
; Common Mouse Settings:
X-Axis Dead Zone = 0 %
Y-Axis Dead Zone = 0 %
Z-Axis Dead Zone = 0 %

@folly
honestly I don't know yet. I haven't tested it yet.
New edit: maybe we will have answers in Supermodel.log like for screen parameters. I don’t have my Pi for the next 4 days. I’ll test it monday.

Ok then we wait a while.

I did put it in the Supermodel.ini.
The log only complained about the comments that have no ";".
So that is why I added them.

I tried a bit, the setting seems to work a bit.
Steering seems to be a bit less sensitive, which is good !

Edit :
Choosing the menu items is still a problem.
I think this is due to the fact that the keyboard is basically emulating an analog steering wheel in a digital way.
I will try some stuff if I can.

mechafatnick

@folly Yeah, My defult pad is the retrobit Saturn one, and i was never able to get analogie-digital to work very well.

I have a knock-off PS3 pad and the analogue controls work great. I made it all the way through the Lost World

@folly Yeah, My defult pad is the retrobit Saturn one, and i was never able to get analogie-digital to work very well.

Digital always goes to "full left" 00h, "middle" 80h or "full right" FFh (see input test).
No values in between, that is needed to select the proper menu.
I don't see much difference in the test menu if I set Sensitivity and Decay Speed.

The analog part works also with my "O BIGBEN Joystick".

mechafatnick

@folly if you look in the ini you have the axis to setting to set the analogue mapping and then joystick up/down/left/right which is supposed to be for controlling things digitally. I've never got it to work properly though.

(not that i've put a massive amount of effort in. Turns out the sking game us my favourite!)

DTEAM

@mechafatnick said in Sega model 3 #segamodel3:

It works well if you set InputAnalogJoyX and InputAnalogJoyY to NONE.

InputAnalogJoyLeft = JOY1_ZAXIS_POS
InputAnalogJoyRight = JOY1_ZAXIS_NEG
InputAnalogJoyUp = JOY1_RXAXIS_POS
InputAnalogJoyDown = JOY1_RXAXIS_NEG
InputAnalogJoyX = NONE
InputAnalogJoyY = NONE

Z or RX axis could be different. depends on the gamepad used

mechafatnick

@dteam Yeah you have to be a little careful as some of the controls sound generic but are actually for specific games:

the master ini file has comments for which control goes with each game - it's a shame it doesn't add them into the one used for the emulator:

I know, but it’s the same concept for the other games. I showed you an exemple. Also, you can combine analog and input for a game like scud, I can turn right and left with analog stick and right and left buttons.

New edit: like this

; Steering wheel
InputSteeringLeft = JOY1_BUTTON8,JOY1_ZAXIS_POS      ; digital, turn wheel left
InputSteeringRight = JOY1_BUTTON9,JOY1_ZAXIS_NEG     ; digital, turn wheel right
InputSteering = NONE      ; analog, full steering range

I had the idea of making an emulators.cfg line that could automatically detect the current resolution or the current resolution that is set for the emulator and then run the emulator with that resolution.
@mitu helped me out with how to do this.
We can just add the variables %XRES% and %YRES% in the line.
There should be no need anymore for multiple resolution-lines.

So I removed all earlier lines, and added just one line, which should be enough :

Here's what I found in Supermodel.log . It shows all default settings. Most of the time you can set it in Supermodel.ini. When It's the default values, they doesn't appear in Supermodel.ini. You have to add them to set them. It is essentially the same as what I have already discussed above.

Sensitivity=15 %
Decay Speed=50 %
X-Axis Dead Zone=10 %
RX-Axis Dead Zone=10 %
Y-Axis Dead Zone=10 %
Z-Axis Dead Zone=10 %
