Soft Reset Not Working

Unread post by C-R-T »

Hey guys

I believe if you hold RUN and press SELECT you're supposed to do a soft reset of the console. This does not happen.

Anyone else?

It works for me. Maybe try redefining your inputs in-core.

Are you using an 8bitdo PCE 2.4g wireless gamepad ?
The menu button is mapped just like Select + Run ones with this controller.
I had to map Mister's menu to something else like Select + II combo instead and leave the menu button unmapped else i couldn't get the soft reset to work.
It would open Mister's menu instead.

There are a few games which don't implement the RUN+SELECT reset - or suppress it in certain spots.

Also, for the games/areas where it is implemented, it is sensitive to which of those two buttons was hit first (and the fact that other buttons shouldn't simultaneously be pressed).
