    X68000 - Mess Tutorial

    in Emulation

    Posted

    The previous post about save state wasn't really a fix after all....now when I load street fighter it's fine with that save; controls work....but it changes that controller configuration permanately for other games too, and now some games will work with that (Space harrier ), while others like Image Fighter DO NOT...I have to set it back...UGH!

    I don't use XM6G, XM6-Pro-68K is what I use and it quits without any issues.

    I tried to use that too...then noticed the D pad doesn't work, only joystick, and also some graphics are broken in it, like the Dracula game, the floating eyes on first battle level the floating eye creature CLIPS in and out of the background, and in street fighter Guile's stage, some of the back of the plane tail is missing totally, etc...doesn't happen with Type G at all...

    ^ I was only able to save the settings up saving a new STATE file, so that meant making the changes to controller as per above, RESETTING the game loading all 6 discs again and then saving it during the title sequence...is there a way to simply save the controller config that anyone know off with XM6? (I'm using XM6 TypeG)

    For those of you who struggle with an Xbox 360 controller with games supporting more than 2 buttons in XM6 TypG emulator (xm6g) (EX: Super Street Fighter 2)

    ** I can't figure out a way to SAVE the settings once made though, forcing me to remap the controller each time I play the game... ** ANY SOLUTION TO THIS? 

    Anyways, this is how I got mine mapped (note: I prefer the classic SNES controller-style design that has HAR PUNCH mapped to LEFT button, and HARD KICK mapped to right bumper) so this is how you do it. Go to OPTIONS / JOYSTICK, under device A, choose controller WIRED CONTROLLER, then click SETUP:

    attached is how I mapped mine to work perfectly...at least for the time being until it gets wiped on every time I start it up again... :-(

    Also, I'm kind of lost setting up my Xbox 360 gamepad with XM6G for games requiring more than 2-3 buttons.  (EXAMPLE: Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition)...does anyone have experience with the right settings for this, can't seem to figure it out on the controller / input settings area...thanks if you can help!

    Cool....I have to press ALT+F4 in mine to quit...or at least, that works fine...

    One major question: 

    When starting games with SAVE files forces me to say YES or NO when quitting game to save over that state....with XM6G....is there any way to have it NOT ask that when I exit?  I'd rather create another save state per game then risk overwriting my launch one...

    I have no idea about the different versions. I *think* some of them have upgraded music, like the patch for Gradius. I'm really only interested in the great SHMUPS the X6800 has in it's library of games. It's got some great ones that fly under the radar. Those and of course Castlevania.

    As far as pausing, don't use it, don't know.

    I have my system settings maxed out.

    Thanks, how do you exit the emulator, just ALT+F4?

    Three questions for you if you don't mind. You've been so helpful, it's really awesome. :-)

    1. Are any of the ALT versions of any games or variations like set 1, set 2, etc... (to your knowledge) essential / worth using over the original ones?
    2. Can PAUSING the game be changed to a different key then ESC easily? I want to use a script to force the emulator to exit using ESC if possible...
    3. How do you know in otpions / system, what default machine to use? If I have may games, what is the best general setting to have there by default? Obviously I want to max it all out, but I don't want to break most games too, haha.

    Correct. In this case point it to Genocide 2.XM6 and play.

    I'm gonna try that with Genocide now....but I noticed with AM6G, for Mugen Senshi Valis II, I had to point the game still to (A), and change my %romfile% line to the SAVE FILE...and it works perfectly...of course it asks me if I was to update my save every time I exit...I say no....would rather not force it to start later in a game if I want to replace it later, etc...but that's really a cool trick!

    Patham,

     

    awesome so after save state is created (presumably once the actual game logo/title is starting), so I actually choose the save state AS THE ROM FILE in LB? Like, replace (A) Rom with that or some other way? Sorry i’m thick! I appreciate your help!

    Thank you so much Patnam and everyone, got this working with XM6G, multi-disks via the command-line recommended on the first page with:  %romfile% with the page to the 2nd image...

    However, how do I do this with 3 disk games?  I noticed you explained a crazy complicated way with MESS to use another program, but what about with XM6?

    Thanks so much eXO, any chance of getting the option to EXCLUDE adult games like it used to ask? or at least have it generate a list for us to see which ones are there?

    Thanks.

    yeah for systems that use a keyboard natively you have to hit scroll lock in order to switch to your normal keyboard.

    Problem is the mapping is all weird in the INPUT when I do this, it's all LETTERS, numbers and KEYBOARD keys instead of directions...I figured out in space invaders K was LEFT, L was RIGHT....and F was fire....but the other games....no idea...such a mess.

    SNES Super Mario Kart - Retroarch - BSES - Graphics unplayable

    in Troubleshooting

    Posted

    Graphics are unplayable characters, look fine but all the mode7 background/tracks are all smeared...I've tried two different US roms (smc and sfc), and I've tried EURO and JAPANESE rom, they all do the same thing.

    I originally had the issue where it would not open at all, and found the bioses....I had to rename/split (duplicated the file only with a COPY) each dsp1 and ds1b files to (EXAMPLE: dsp1.data.rom and dsp1.program.rom) and the the game runs fine but once the track stars is unplayable.

    I suspect this IS the problem cause the roms are fine...can't find anything on this....any idea how to fix? does anyone have the proper DSP roms to place i my Retroarch \System folder?  I'm sure someone plays this game....a lot of people...would appreciate it!

    If this idea ends up in the table, it would really need to be thought very thoroughly. I am with DOS76 on this, as when I search stuff its not only games, and I think trimming the results to only be game names hinders the potential of the search feature.

    Nobody is saying force only game title results (at least I wasn't), but giving the option to have the results be a TITLE search only...well, seems completely logical to me to have the OPTION. I'm frankly surprised not many care...I just always assumed it was an obvious bug being worked out eventually.

    I’ve enjoyed reading through this thread. I do not have the biggest, but just surpassed 50k two nights ago. Creeping up to 51k and probably still rising. I’m one of these completionist types. I’m enjoying the ‘challenge’.

    Hi Dane, I just got passed 42K....omitting comics and video game magazines...are you importing only US/EURO sets or do you included japanese/latin games too?

    I only include translated to english japanes games, except my NEC-PCFX and some Famicom games (translated when possible), and go through great pains to get rid of duplicate versions, demos, betas etc..
