Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

It is the year 2048 on the boot screen of Mr Driller... I think I overslept last night. @mappy24 The three Mr Driller games work in 274 for me here. Do other games work in 274 for you? Maybe something went wrong in the updating process. It may be worth recopying the roms onto the SD card from your ...

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

I've updated to mame 274 and the three games that I had on 269 - Mr Driller, 2 and G are no longer working. The roms have been moved to /boot/firmware/romsArcade/mame-274 I've rescanned the roms but they're not working any more, they just dump me immediately back to the game list. I've updated the r...

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

Probably, but I haven't spent any time on it to be sure. Happy to take a look at it. Are you using the default 240p only mode or is 480i available too? It's likely (assuming 480i works well on your monitor) that 480i will give better results for vector games due to the extra lines available. Ah, sw...

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

Is there any way to get vector games displaying better? They are too big for the screen initially and if I poke about in the menus I can get them to fit but they look awful (on a 15khz CRT). I'm talking Asteroids, Battle Zone etc.

Thanks all!

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

Hi, next problem is trying to get Donut Dodo working. It's installed but the picture is really squished ( https://imgur.com/a/49MeJx0 ) and the joystick controls aren't working properly - trying to remap them in the menus and it skips over every other control so it's impossible to set up, are there ...

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

I've been playing a lot of Mr Driller, 2 & G on .269, none of these are saving their high scores....is there any way to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

Oh and thanks for the console fullscreen tip, that's been driving me crazy :lol:

if [ $1 == stop ]; then sleep 4 sudo killall xboxdrv # sudo rm /dev/input/js2 # sudo rm /dev/input/event3 # rm /tmp/tmpHK.txt fi Thanks, initial testing is positive, I need more time to test and I'll get back to you. Games still frequently fail to load on the first attempt but at least the controls...
