Image for Pi 0 W2
-
Hi
I searched and didnt see any other threads but I purchased a pi 0 W2 and found the image for the 0 listed on the site doesnt work as the wifi drivers arent included (so I couldnt load any games)
I was however able to search and find the weekly build for the pi 3 works on the 0 w2, however I'm having other issues such as I cannot properly load LR-flycast.
Does anyone know if the image for the 0 will be updated soon to include wifi drivers for the W2 or perhaps I can load the driver manually? I dont really know how to do this but will gladly take any help. Thank you -

What's the error you're receiving ?

The Pi3 weekly image already contains the drivers needed for WiFi and users have been using it without issue since the launch of the Pi Zero 2.

@mitu No error per se, the game Im trying to load (MVC2) simply hangs and wont load; eventually it crashes back to the menu.
I have the same game/bios files/setup on my Pi 4 and it runs MVC2 flawlessly using lr-flycast.
I was thinking it might be because im using the weekly pi3 build on the 0 (for the wifi drivers) and was hoping maybe a "real" 0 W2 image would be better.
But hey if you can help me get lr-flycast working on this that would be awesome!
Or maybe the 0 simply can't handle this game which is strange as it handles xmenvsSF, MVC1, and other games very nicely... -

Not sure how 'wifi drivers' would improve the emulators' support for a game ? The weekly build is as real as any released image, there's nothing extra added for the official release builds.

Post a verbose log from the emulator running the game on pastebin.com and we can maybe spot the error.

these are 2d 90s titles. mvc2 is a 3d 00s title. but regardless, it seems a general issue at the moment: https://github.com/flyinghead/flycast/issues/476

@dankcushions Not sure if it's a general issue - on my Pi4 I can run MvC2 (Dreamcast) without issue.
It may be that there's a general issue with the Naomi ROM, but a log file would be useful to see which version of MvC2 is involved. -
I have tried the Naomi version of game (
mvsc2.zip) on my Pi4 with the new Flycast core and it seems to run ok (installed from source, from c10c3a1). Will have to try on a Pi3, but the software versions should be the same.
