Hello

As for Scramble, I have no display

can anyone test?

Gauntlet displayed fine for me, though turning on gamma correction did cause some corruption. Scramble, funny enough, did not display for me. Using the mister main from ao486_Cache42_100432e. (HDMI, vsync_adjust=2, 1080p)

with files from my archive?

Yes.

Can anyone actually start a game of Gauntlet? The coin, Start 1P, and cheat definitions all seem to add coins for different players but nothing actually starts the game.

I played a game tonight - seemed to start after mashing various keys on my keyboard though.

Game is really responsive, felt better than any emulated version I remember playing in the past.

work for me also

you have to type 1 and "X" to start game player 1

The core needs a USB keyboard connected, keys are Z=fire, X=magic, I J K L=directional, 1 2 3 4=coins

I solved my problem, it works on my Mister too

X started warrior on my keyboard.

Go to F12 menu and cursor right and redefine the keys including P1 and P2 start. Works well with speech too.

You have to map X to one of your controller buttons, as it is also Fire 2 (Magic) ingame. You can map the key to your controller from the core menu.

Is anyone else finding the sound too high-pitched?

I did this morning a quick fix regarding the joystick support
to work as usual and allowing 4 players play.

Tried it using your latest build, works great on MiSTer.
A quick remap of the buttons and all worked really well, personally I'm fine with the Speech Audio where it is

Many thanks for this core, even if it is a cash grab per excellence, Gauntlet is still one of my two most favorite Arcade games of all time (the other one is Bubble Bobble, so it's like heaven)

I'm extremely excited to see this core! It looks like it supports (or will support?) both Gauntlet 1 and 2?

Played quite well for me, i did notice if you change the scandoubler Fx to anything but None you cannot read the players score and health. Great job on the core though.

love this core.. thank you so much..

Just wanted to add that it's awesome to finally get a version where all 4 players can play at the same time.

scandoubler none and gamma correction off
and you can read score and ealth !

Because there are also Quartus modifications inside the source I don't want to push.

I just want to precise I'm not the original developer of Gauntlet core.

Oh I see... the core loads ROMs into BRAM and there is only space for Gauntlet I.
It will probably need work to move ROM storage into SDRAM (if possible) before it is merged into the official repository.

Joystick modifications are now merged in original repository

My two idiot kids and I just played the hell out of this for about three hours with no issues. All efforts well appreciated.

Hi guys, I´m unable to make it work on my Mister following the instructions:

"To play on MiSTer, place the gauntlet.zip ROM files in the folder rtl/boards/miSTer/_Arcade/mame, then copy the folder _Arcade as is to the MiSTer SD card root"

Just got a black screen. Maybe I´m missing something?

Regards

Did you already have a /media/fat/Games/mame folder on your SD card?

If so, ignore the instructions (and remove /media/fat/_Arcade/mame and its contents) and instead put the rom in /media/fat/Games/mame.

MiSTer used to use the former, then switched to the latter, but will exhibit problems if you have both.

No, I dont have that folder, but I'm going to try creating /Games/mame

If you don't have either one, it means you don't have the arcade ROMs, which are needed (and not supplied).

The ROMs are actually attached to the first post in this thread within the RAR file, within the 'mame' folder.
As others have stated place this 'mame' folder into your 'games' folder, and not inside '_Arcade'.

@catenaccio - Considering your issues with setup etc, go and get Psylon's Updater, and put the 'update_all.sh' file into your 'scripts' folder and launch it... (by using the Scripts option accessed by pressing F12)
This should help you put everything into working order for you, although I wouldn't bother with the RENAME options, until you have gotten to grips with MiSTer as this can get confusing.

Good luck. By the way here is the link to Psylon's Update_All github:
