    Corn Suit

    flatuswalrus posted a topic in Monkeys

    There has been multiple sci-fi films and shows throughout the years depicting extraterrestrial beings that spew digestive type juices onto people which can eat through pretty much anything like Kevlar Armour or steel. Why then in these shows and films do they not make and wear some sort of full body suit made out of corn? The structural integrity of the corn kernel or cellulose husk is not compromised by gastric juice or stomach acid so if they made a suit out of it they would be protected. Most sci-fi settings are in the future where they have highly advanced technology but no one has ever tried making a suit of corn? Seems ridiculous to me, thoughts?

    Aspect Ratio was set to custom. Kindly give me your address so I may send you one big sloppy man-kiss in an envelope.

    This was a life-saver, thank you.

    This post did it for me, thank you. I still for some reason cannot view a handheld border shader larger than 2x as it chops off the sides of the handheld picture making a 4:3 share. Though, I am happy enough with the 2x size as I said before it is a bit more realistic, especially on a large modern TV. I just added the -c command for a custom config that did not exist, launch a game and let it create a blank config to then edit. Works like a charm, thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction.

    I like the overlays/borders in the shader section too. I have just been having a weird problem with them. You can't fully see in this screenshot but whenever I chose the overlay/border x3 or larger it cuts off the edges: The screen on the TV is obviously wider than that above screenshot but it has two black strips down the side like it makes it 4:3 even though no settings have been changed pertaining to the ratio. In order to show the entire GBA I have to make it x2 in size: x2 isn't too bad but is pretty small on the screen, it looks fine in the above screenshot but is way smaller when it is actually viewed/displayed on my TV. Instead of having just a border I like the entire handheld device showing on the screen as I just like the look of it plus it makes the game display a little smaller still which is more like the real thing. I also have been having trouble adding the GBA through the overlays section as it stretches the image too high making it the incorrect ration for the games. I deleted ALL my config files and opened RA to start fresh but the problem persists. I run into so many dramas with everything it makes me feel stupid. I am going to give it all another try this afternoon and will report my results.

    Although it does not hurt having the _default folder I am glad you've mentioned it now before I really did much more as I will move them all into the one folder for ease of use like yourself and then I will only have to change the location for the Atari Lynx.
  7. flatuswalrus
    May I ask your opinion on that too thank you?
  8. flatuswalrus
    Yes that's great, I am doing so to the SNK Neo Geo Pocket right now. and will now do so for all my handheld systems, thank you.
  9. flatuswalrus
    BINGO! That is all it was. That is absolutely fantastic. Now I can custom configure all of my handheld units which will make playing them WAY more enjoyable. Thank you very much for your kind assistance, it is very much appreciated indeed.

    I moved the files to the Overlay folder. My Onscreen Overlay was not in the quick menu, it was in the settings list. It was already turned on. I saved it via core override and here is the .cfg: The numbers are just randomly set for the moment as I am fine to play around with those (in the video option or via the .cfg directly). I just made them small as to not obstruct the overlay image to see if it was on the screen, but it refuses to show:
  11. flatuswalrus
    Thank you for that. Though I have tried exactly what you said before but it did not work. I changed the cfg file name to Atari Lynx.cfg and then changed the image name inside the cfg file to match that of the image I wish to use. I then placed them in a folder called Atari Lynx and placed that in my shaders folder in RA. Upon navigating to the folder location in RA it sees the folder but not the .cfg file. I am about to leave for work so can't do it right now, but should or could this be placed in the overlays folder instead being that it is just a border alone and not really a shader? Or does that not matter at all?

    I know how to add the handheld border shaders through RetroArch like the GBA one which was included in RetroArch's initial download or shader update here: I find it much more enjoyable playing like this. Though I want to be able to add ones that I have downloaded like this Atari Lynx one: Problem is it does not have a .cfg file, it just came with the following:The .ini just has the following information in it: I know the short answer to this would just be to create a .cfg file, but I have tried and not succeeded. Has anyone done this before and if so would someone be so kind as to walk through it together and then hopefully others may benefit from it too. I have searched but have not found any tutorials or discussion detailing exactly this. Also, one more question. For systems that one may be using the same core like gambatte_libretro.cfg for the GB and GBC but wish to have different custom configure in order to have a different handheld border shader if you copy your gambatte_libretro.cfg in the RA config folder and name it to something like gambatte2_libretro.cfg will it show up in the RA UI options? Thank you in advance.

    Thanks, yes it would be good to be able to split stuff up via some official list housed in the database. Although there are sites and forums out there which one can discover lists of exclusive titles for various titles sometimes you do have to dig a little which can be time consuming.
  14. flatuswalrus
    I only just discovered you could do this with MAME. I applied the crt-geom also across my MAME64, MAMEUI64 and MAMEUIFX and it looks awesome! I went with crt-geom as well as that is what I was already using in RetroArch. So thank you very much for this tutorial as it has made things a lot more visually enjoyable. Now if I could only work out how to apply the Exodus CRT Overlay as a border I would be happier than a pig in mud.

    Rather than start a new thread I thought it would be befitting to post here and drag this up like Weekend at Bernie's. Has anyone had any success with the VMU games via a standalone emulator like SoftVMS? I downloaded SoftVMS the other day and it works just great outside of Launchbox and the controls are straight forward and easily converted to a controller via something like Controller Companion. I am not familiar with making appropriate commands and the likes so I am unable to get games to launch straight into this little piece of poop via LaunchBox (if it is even possible). I imagine not many would care about VMU and understandably so, Though, anyone?

    That is very interesting and great to know as the first game I tried was very jumpy indeed but the following games were less so. Thank you very much.
  17. flatuswalrus
    I feel like that lady right now, embarrassed and ashamed of myself but happy that I can partake in the comfort of the delicious food Dreamcast games.
  18. flatuswalrus
    Despite all this great help on the forums and a few other tutorials I am falling short on getting the SEGA Dreamcast up and running. AtomisWave and Naomi are working fine in the separately created emulator I made on LaunchBox called Demul (Arcade) but Dreamcast won't work. Here are some screenshots which will hopefully help someone more knowledgeable lend a hand and fault find: I followed the Unbroken Software tutorial on YouTube but it did not show exactly what files BIOS wise needed to be included, just the folders and zip files they were in. I have got a ton of crap I wouldn't need but surely as a result of trying to find the right thing I do have what I need: As for the GD-ROM the only thing I have in my Demul roms folder that it accepts is a file: DC - Utopia CD Loader V1.1.nrg. When I launch a game in LaunchBox it gets no further than this: Can anyone see anything obviously wrong in my setup? Thank you in advance.

    This was very helpful, thank you for the information.
  20. flatuswalrus
    Thank you, this was a big help!

    Tonight I added a bit of an obscure platform to my setup, the Seta Aleck64. files are .z64 and it runs just fine on RA's mupen64plus_libretro core. Thanks to @dragon57 for making a video which he added to his Nostalgia video additions set. I added it as its' own platform and scraped it as Arcade. I have ten out of the twelve games added which I think is what is available at this point in time. There definitely are some fun ones. Star Soldier is a fun shooter and you get one of those slutty Qix clones in the form of Vivid Dolls where every time you cut out a piece it sounds like a retarded woman orgasms, which is every two seconds. Good times. Just though I would post this as I did not find this mentioned anywhere else and there is not a plethora of information out there on it, not that there needs to be and what is out there is enough I guess.
  22. flatuswalrus
    After you posted this I tried Citra and it certainly works better than the RA Citra core. Still nowhere near good enough yet though so I think I will just let my 3DS games sit until the emulation gets better.
  23. flatuswalrus
    Just to confirm, is that a lower-case L on the keyboard? After pressing this do you normally get 4 0's appear before pressing Scroll Lock? After the 34 or so seconds of what can only be described as listening to Satan farting out of his dick hole I do not see any hex codes. This does not matter if it is capitalized right? Just the letter G on the keyboard? After going through all these steps about 10 seconds later the screen just start flickering like something Alex DeLarge would have been made to watch in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange.
  24. flatuswalrus
    Something has changed with this it seems. I remember my 3DS games working with the Citra core in RA but now the two Citra cores won't even load manually in RA let alone launch a game from LB or BB. Has anyone else lately tried with the 3DS with the RA core and failed as of late?
  25. flatuswalrus
    Haha! Nice. You know you want more! I think I only have a couple of system under this category, or at least ones that there are not any good emulation for like the Loopy and Jaguar-CD. If I have system that I simply cannot get running well I reckon I will discard them also. That is interesting that you say every time you scan for artwork it comes up with more. I have not done that once but will towards the end, I am sure it will take a long time for it to check 60k+ games. Yeah for whatever reason when I add a new system it often return errors. I have also split up many systems but with those systems if the libraries are tiny I would do the same thing.
