Re: ARpiCADE_5 - for Pi4 or Pi5

I'm OK with whatever you do... though I'd suggest going with whatever is easier to maintain.

Re: Pi4 "Lightguns" testing and comparison

A friend is offering to sell me his Aimtrak guns ... two of them ... for a hundred bucks shipped. Sorta hard to beat that price I think. While I realize they aren't the BEST option... they certainly are the cheapest option at this point. Opinion... a hundred dollars US ... worth it for the Aimtrak (...

Re: Model 2 and 3 ... Worth It?

Something musta broke with model 2. Depending on the rom, I get either what appears like a window ...taking about 1/3ish of the screen at the left...all black but with text I can't read. Top bar of window does say M2 Emulator I believe...hard to read. Once in a while I can find a rom that makes a wi...

Re: Overclocking the Pi5

Lets say I find a benchmark program for Linyx... what folder would I install that in to to run it from the command line... or is that something you'd recommend I simply avoid doing?

Re: Overclocking the Pi5

Dee2er...

Is there a benchmark program I can download and install in some way (or is there one already installed)? Same question ... but re: temperature monitoring.

Re: Overclocking the Pi5

We're now over an hour on both cabinets and still running strong. I'm going to likely kick it to attractmode... then leave it for another hour. The garagecade is cool right now too so I have to keep that in mind (right now it's about 58-60f out there... in the summer it will get up to 80-82f... That...

Overclocking the Pi5

I've been playing around with the two Pi5 rigs I have here trying to determine the max I can push each... with the idea of finding that max then backing down a tick or two... and also because... well... overclocking is fun. :) What I've noticed is that there can be a pretty big difference between Pi...

Re: Pi4 "Lightguns" testing and comparison

Re: Model 2 and 3 ... Worth It?

Model 3 seem to work (many of them)... but seem very slow. Oddly, the music seems fine but yeah, they seem to run bout 1/2 speed. Model 2? I can't get any of them to work. They load a little... a bot shows up at the left... once I got a half screen with an AM2 on it... but then nothing... Will keep ...
