How does MSX & ColecoVision Co-Exist in BlueMSX?
-
@dmmarti Nope. Didn't fix it. It also removed the ColecoVision specific remap for controls I had made. So I don't think that's the culprit.
-
Here's what's also interesting. Some of my ColecoVision ROMs boot with FBNeo and even when I look at the runcommand log for those it's also pulling the config from the FBNeo config folder and not the coleco folder:
[INFO] [Core Options]: Saved core options file to "/home/pi/.config/retroarch/config/FinalBurn Neo/FinalBurn Neo.opt"
-
Do you perhaps have wrong settings in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg ?
Above is just a guess, seems we are on a dead end.
-
@folly I can check....

@folly Here's the retroarch.cfg in /all/

@folly Ha! Updating RA is actually where all these problems started! :P I just updated last night.

@tpr I can't test this at the moment but what if you
rename the config folders to msxBAK & colecoBAK (easy to restore if this doesn't help)
uninstall bluemsx / reboot / reinstall
just to regenerate fresh config files?
at least this would eliminate those folders from trouble shooting?? -
@lister-of-smeg That's a good idea! I'll do this tonight!
-
@tpr having thought about it
now might be a good time to start making sd card backups
I use Win32 Disk Imager - It's saved me from disaster a few times -
@lister-of-smeg Oh, trust me, I am on backup #19 of this build already! :P
-
@lister-of-smeg Same results. It's fine. I've now resorted to just making a game config file for every ColecoVision game. A lot of them use FBNeo anyway since BlueMSX doesn't support the homebrew "Super Game Module" games and FBNeo does. If it ends up being a bigger issue I might just switch over to FBNeo for all those games.
Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I'm throwing in the towel on this one! :D

Indeed FBneo is a good choice.
For those who don't know, we did a lot of work in this thread :

It might be useful to check it. -
@Folly the problem is with colecovision on lr-bluemsx is I can't use the keyboard after the blue screen with select game options apper in a colecovision game. What should I do?
