  1. I can confirm this is still happening for me as well. CCS64 was doing the same thing at one point but it was fixed a few betas back.
  2. He's not talking about a problem with Demul's sound - the problem is with background music in Big Box when you start Demul. Sometimes it doesn't stop after starting a game, sometimes it will stop when you start a game but doesn't come back after exiting the game.
  3. @Jason Carr I just figured out what's causing the problem. The problem is arising when you specify custom command line parameters in the emulation tab. This: Plus this: Does not work. However, this: Plus this (unchanged): Works just fine.
  4. Check out these posts: You should really try Mednafen or RA with Mednafen Saturn core though if you haven't. It's way better (and simpler) than any of the other Saturn emulation options.
  5. I won't be back at the house until a little after 5PM EST I'm happy to send it to you when I do get home though.
  6. No, it's not different. It's an additional app in a Sega Saturn library entry.
  7. I noticed something odd last night that I assume is unintentional. If you add an additional app and tell it to "Use Emulator" it doesn't seem to be pulling the relevant platform-specific command line parameters for that emulator. I've only experienced this with Retroarch but presumably it would affect other emulators as well. So, for example, using a Saturn game: This does not work: This, however, does work: Here's the relevant associated platform in the emulator entry (setting Retroarch as the primary emulator for a Saturn library entry works just fine):
  8. If you do decide you want to go with Montezuma's Revenge again at some point, here's an avatar I just made for the hell of it (because reasons; also boredom). Long live Panama Joe!
  9. No problem! The defaults work decently well in a lot of cases but occasionally you'll run into ones that are just way off like Rad Mobile and Discs of Tron. I find that racing games, in particular, seem to have the tendency to be problematic (overly sensitive by default). Unrelated, but but per your avatar, Montezuma's Revenge is one of my all-time favorites on the C64 It's hard as balls (like a lot of games back then) but a great game. EDIT: Noes...you changed it
  10. No, I don't have a screenshot (I'm not home at the moment either) but it's one of the main sections when you hit Tab. It's just called Analog Controls. I will warn you that adjusting them can take some getting used to. You might want to take a look at the second post in this thread (the one by Derrick Renaud) for some pointers. It can take a bit to get things dialed in where you need them - luckily you can do this while the game is running so you can tweak, hit tab to test it, hit tab to tweak it some more, etc.
  11. That's not that unusual - there's a lot of cross-pollination between genres in the electronica sphere anyway. I ended up getting into it years ago thanks to some Synth Pop bands like Chvrches and iamamiwhoami and some rabbit-hole browsing habits. That led me to Bandcamp and digging through pages and pages of Synthwave albums. NewRetroWave's channel is actually a great starting point too since they post single songs from various Synthwave artists several times a day. It's a great introduction to a lot of bands that fall into the full range of Synthwave styles, from 80's dream pop like Timecop1983 to heavy stuff like Daniel Deluxe.
  12. You can adjust those by pulling up the tab menu and going to the Analog Controls section and adjusting the various sensitivity settings. Some games definitely do require some fine-tuning.
  13. There are a couple of related subgenres like Darkwave (more Cyberpunk inspired - this is stuff like Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, Dan Terminus, etc.) and Chillwave (stuff like Tycho and Lucy In Disguise) but Synthwave is kindof the larger umbrella genre under which they all fall. Some good sources for finding this stuff are: NewRetroWave's YouTube Channel Synthwave Tag on Bandcamp WeRuleNation's Youtube Channel I've got a playlist that I put together and shared on here that I use in conjunction with the CityHunter theme that you might be interested in as well:
  14. Just go back through the thread pages Probably 80% of my posts in here are Synthwave haha
  15. Alrighty, here's a new Dreamcast logo using Phantasy Star Online. Now where's my Spread Needle +99? Normal: Scanlines: Normal - Version 2: Scanlines - Version 2:
  16. You could add in something like this at the end of your script: Escape:: Process,close,AutoHotkey.exe return
  17. Interesting. I've never had a specific need for it, but I'm glad to know it works should the niche need arise
  18. So I take it in that scenario you've got two separate Additional Applications, both set to run "before main application"? I've never actually tried that.
  19. Could be, although I think people tend to read a lot into TOOL lyrics, probably more than is actually necessary (and I say that as a huge TOOL fan).
  20. The funny thing was that the professor wanted to actually hear the songs or watch the movie that people chose (the class was fairly small), and he was this Albert Einstein lookin' dude with crazy white hair going everywhere, so having him listen to TOOL and seeing his reaction to it was pretty great. I'm fairly certain this guy went to Woodstock in his younger days though so he was pretty cool with it. He was one of the few genuinely great professors I had in my college years.
  21. Well I got an A so it worked. I was gonna go with Scarface but it was already taken.
  22. The "CD" might be referring to the CDTV, I'm not sure. It was essentially a fancy multimedia device though. The CD32 was the one specifically designed for gaming. You should be able to tell what they're for just by looking at file names though, based on the games. In any case, C64, Vic-20, Plus 4, and CD32 (and CDTV for that matter, although I'm not sure why you'd want that) are all separate things.
