Re: ROMLIST Depository

For cobra / cobram3 where are you putting the nearly 14gig chd? I'm not. Not every game in the list I posted is tested/setup. I don't even have the CHD for this one. If I haven't already removed it I will, my list has already changed a bit since I posted it last due to further testing. But lately i...

These guncon2s work great in MAME but I'm not having much luck in other emulators at the moment...

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

Next update progress update. I was making progress, Guncon2 support, slightly improved performance, a few more games supported, config improvements. Still planning some code cleanups and adding highres support and maybe PSP too but then... I've now discovered the kernel changes for Guncon2 support h...

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

No high res support yet. I've started on it though, just need to do the launcher logic. Whatever you do do not try to setup your monitor in config.txt on this build, that is now depreciated.

Re: Pi4 "Lightguns" testing and comparison

It's a good price but you could probably find 2 guncon2s for similar money. Aimtrak were good but you can't move around or pass it to someone else after calibrating it. Your earlier mention of wanting arcade quality makes me think you wouldn't be happy with them. I ended up selling mine after gettin...

Re: Pi4 "Lightguns" testing and comparison

Seems the GunCon2s work best as joysticks (I was hoping they'd work well as mice because that's how Sinden and Gun4IR are both setup in my previous gun build of ARpiCADE_4), testing in MAME274 at the moment. I have 2 independant guns working but hitting controller order issues similar to @cool_facto...

comment out the hdmi timings line with a "#" in front of the line, it isn't needed for high res.

Also you have the hdmi mode and group settings in there twice, both the same. Shouldn't hurt anything but figured I'd mention it.

Re: ARpiCADE 3.X (that's a ten, I thought 10 may be confusing...)

Sounds like you might have the board running in low res mode. The default settings load in 480i and switch to 240p (or another progressive low resolution) when you load a game. Assuming your monitor is horizontal mounted, the games you listed that worked wouldn't have swapped res as they're rotated ...

Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

sounds like I've tried to do too much with that update. It really would have worked easier as a fresh image, I should have uploaded a fresh image by now anyway... got distracted again with Guncon2. The good news is from the sound of things it's unlikely to have done anything bad, except possibly to ...
