Thanks Dee2er!

All of them it seems Dylan! : ) The two that I regularly test with are 1942 and Terra Cresta. So, certainly nothing that should be taxing the Pi4 too heavily. Basically I've just replicated the ROMs directory structure that I had in my Pi3 machine onto a new card in the Pi4 machine and now everythin...

I'm up and running on a new Pi4 but I am getting weirdness when running Advancemame 3.9, i.e. any ROMs loaded into the BOOT/romsArcade/mame-106 folder. It seems to be skipping frames. Sprites are jittery. I've messed with all the settings in the in emulation video menu (i.e. P1Start + P1JoysticRight...

Has anybody figured out how to make C64 and Amiga emulations usable on Arpicade? I'm about to put some research into it so I figured I'd ask here in case anybody has solved it. Once I get to the bottom of it I'll post my finings here. The problem... Basically you often need to access a virtual keybo...

Hey dee2eR,
I guess I assumed from your original post that we were waiting for an update or something, but no?
Mame.ini is in the hidden partition that I can't see on from a mac right? Is that what I'd have to change (as well as adding the cheat file)?
I fear this may be beyond me. Any tips?
Thanks.

Hey dee2eR. Any updates on cheats? I've had my machine on for 2 days straight trying to beat L3 on R-Type II, raising overnight and thought the day in between attempts. I'd love to switch it off before the monitor burns in : ) I'm pretty sure there a level select cheat for R-Type II.

OK, I've gotten all the way to the bottom of the issue. It was a ground loop problem. I tried lifting the 12v lines (+ve and GND) and neither fixed the issue. The solution is to place a ground loop isolator between the audio output and your amp. In Australia Jaycar sells one for $11 that does the jo...

OK, I've gotten to the bottom of it and I have a workaround. I just plugged in a battery powered speaker and the buzzes went away. This suggested there was an issue with my Lepai amp or possibly some kind of noise coming through via the shared power supply. I thought I'd tested for the latter but ap...

Hey Dylan, Thanks for the snappy response! I've just tried your suggestion and here are my observations: - Reducing software volume didn't reduce the volume of the undesired noises - Turning up the volume on the external amp (enough to bring back good levels of desired sound) bought up the volume of...

I'm experiencing some interesting noises when connecting to an external amplifier and speakers via the 3.5mm socket on the RaspberryJamma DAC. They seem to be coming from the Pi itself as they fall in sync with the Pi doing something; i.e. moving the selection down in Attract Mode or when loading a ...
