whbinder Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Good afternoon everyone, I've been working with the new a5200 core in Retroarch and I like it quite a lot. My only general qualm is that a small number of games have very strange color palettes (although I believe this was the same in a800) and I don't think there's any options to change that. But Pitfall specifically, has an odd issue. It loads properly, but the "Start" button doesn't start the game. The game starts properly in Altirra, but not 5200. I know Pitfall had issues with 2 port 5200 machines, but I'm not sure if that's a bios issue or not. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g1lgamesh Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I’m having that same issue. Ever get to the bottom of this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 It's an emulator issue. Use either Altirra or Kat5200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whbinder Posted July 9, 2023 Author Share Posted July 9, 2023 Well, there is a new version. I wouldn't call it fixed. Pitfall still doesn't start and now displays random ascii text. The sound is off on all games and the controls are more sluggish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starts and plays perfectly for me with the a5200 core. Edited November 11, 2023 by Headrush69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
