In the late 90s/early 2000s I had a graphic card with additional TV_Out (FBAS) and used that now and then.

I still miss my ATI 3D XPRESSION+ PC2TV hooked up to the Sony Kv29 VTR15 (thru S-video). Those were the days.. (1996??)

Re: Cannon Fodder intro samples gone??

Amiga plays 2 channels of audio in the left speaker, 2 channels in the right speaker. All the voice samples in Cannon Fodder are in the right-hand speaker, which means that they will be missing e.g. if you have a setup that does a mono mix that pulls from the left channel. I’d look at the settings for the audio mixing in the MiSTer menu, and also ...

Re: Cannon Fodder intro samples gone??

Mystery Solved!

If you set Stereo Mix to 0% in Audio&video settings, the samples vanish.

Rise the value and they appear. 100% and it's perfect.

(I obviously dont understand that menu option).

Thanks for your answers!

Cannon Fodder intro samples gone??

War Has Never Been So Much Fun.. but those samples are gone! I only hear the tune, with no voice-overs.

Updated megaAgs, updated core, tried some different configs.. but i cant get the voices back.

Any clue how to fix it or what config is the reccomended one?

thanks a lot!

"When traversing the escalator in Elevator Action, the floor in front of the player is switched to a sprite to give the illusion of going behind the floor."

It seems Anton Gale forgot about this bug. ( fixed for the Anal. Pocket -pun intended- but still present in miSTer core)

No.
I even have the slot free as my setup was always meant for Directvideo.
But buying another ram stick just for one or two arcade cores.. no thanks.
I'll consider the dual ram setup only if needed for console cores. Not for just one game.

I wish a core for Tehkan's STAR FORCE would be on the making.. I thought as it is "similar" to Bomb Jack it could be made easier, but no luck so far.

Jaleco's CITY CONNECTION would definite sound great in a miSTer core.

Elevator Action works fine. The sound is perfect. I never heard the tunes like this, even emulating on a high-end pc.

There are some gfxs glitches on directvideo mode, which i dont remember seeing in the tweeter previews from AntonGale.
