Re: UltimateMiSTer.com

Hello Christopher, Thank you for your feedback. We made sure that the MT32 Lite does not block any ports, whether USB or Serial USER I/O, and the same applies to BlisSTer Gameports. This applies to both MiSTer setups with the standard Hub and BlisSTer. How does that look? It isn't totally clear to me when I look at your pictures because of the ang...

Re: Questions about MT-32 Pi or Pi-Midi

If the mt32-pi is specifically for MiSTer and never going to be used as a full synthesizer replacement, I'd recommend sticking to MiSTer focused sellers that will offer builds or Pi hats that are meant to be used with MiSTer. You'll get the best compatibility and ease of setup that way. And to answer the bonus about PiMIDI, that looks to be just a...

Re: [Apple II/e] Most .po disk images fail to boot

Yeah, hard to figure out what is going on. Just to make it fun, I managed to boot the broken image a moment ago on MAME. 🤷‍♂️

Re: [Apple II/e] Most .po disk images fail to boot

So, do you mean it works for you in MAME, or here on MiSTer too? I didn't mess with the bad dumps, but managed to get the "good" image to run in Microm8 Apple II emulator. It fails for me in this core though. Both places. The one good dump works fine now in MAME and the Apple II MiSTer core. Thing is, it didn't a few days ago. I tried to...

Re: [Apple II/e] Most .po disk images fail to boot

Alright I tried to boot the two dumps of the game I could find in MAME 261. The [ b] one doesn't work, but I can load the normal "good" dump and boot the game just fine. When I change the .do to .dsk on the good dump, it also booted. I got a copy from the 2012 TOSEC and also from the 2023 update. They seem to be identical. ... and then it...

Re: [Apple II/e] Most .po disk images fail to boot

There is a "normal" dump of this game in latest TOSEC, but it doesn't boot properly either (tried it in AppleWin). This was present in the 2012 dump as well, I wasn't aware that the [ b ] made a difference when I linked to that file. I've tried with both, and I didn't get a good result either. Going to try this on MAME and see what that ...

Doesn't \[b\] indicate "bad dump"?

Darn I never knew that. There are two dumps, one of them without the [ b ]. But the other one might also be bad. I will see if I can reproduce this with MAME on my Windows install. Even though getting anything 8-bit to run on MAME is a nightmare.

Re: [Apple II/e] Most .po disk images fail to boot

Hi, I am joining a bit late. I've tried to get Odyssey, The Compleat Adventure (1980)(Synergistic Software) / [ b ] in .do format to boot and I only get a blank screen with Apple ][. I've tried to change the .do to .po and that brings me a hex dump. I also tried renaming to .dsk and that didn't bring any positive results either. In the game manual ...
