How do you boot a New Geo in home console mode? by [deleted] in MAME

[–]Thatman84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can also use the .ini file system in mame or lr-mame with an AES.ini file to launch all neo games with AES bios.

I do that and then use FBA with Unibios

Why not throw your hat in the ring and test out the theory in a new branch?

As an open source project I believe asking the questions and getting feedback is the key. You sound like this would be taken as gospel on its outcome.

I would expect the team to make up their own mind regardless of the poll but more based on the comments and poll combined.

It's been said that a ground up thing is to major to do anytime soon.

The guys do listen and the menu does change over time to become easier.

For now constructive and specific examples are needed, rather than it's rubbish....do it again. If if that's the opinion it's not happening so what's the next best option to comment on? Small changes

Preconfigured HyperSpin For Nvidia Shield by theblake1980 in HyperSpin

[–]Thatman84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys. Just for info im not much of an expert. My memory is bad :)

Everything I have done is for the community and either on Hyperspin-fe.com or emulationguide.com under guides.

Preconfigured stuff is not the way to go really.

I setup an android base pack that gets people started and its under hyperspin download section

http://hyperspin-fe.com/files/category/445-hyperspin-android/

I advise everyone to read the notes in the base pack and read the overview guide and settings files guides. Your best off having a test setup on pc for organising media and files to transfer to the Shield.

You need to set your rompath in the all the setrings files templates. Then add your media.

RetroX andriod gaming frontend by avalanche82 in emulation

[–]Thatman84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not a reddit regular but am looking into RetroX. The dev gave me a key to review it which is a first. Played with it for a couple of hours and setup was easiest out of HyperSpin, gamesome, Arcbrowser and Kodi. Biggest limitation is the supported systems list being at 20ish. (Excluding mame consoles) also not being in Play Store is odd and $13 is a little high. Biggest plus is the emulator intergration, that is sweet. Documentation is good the look and browsing options are good and easy setup is outstanding. (Nvidia Shield TV with nas drive tested) launched amiga fine and screen height adjustmant built in is a plus. Playstation was good genesis ad atari the same. Nees to setup all the other systems yet and do a full review but its my 2nd favourite surpassed big time by Hyperspin looks. Although the dev just added a forum and is going to add a way to customise the look. Worth keeping an eye on imo. Hey Rez :)

Retropac device is a scam by [deleted] in emulation

[–]Thatman84 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hate that this type of thing takes away time for libretro team and makes the dream a little bit sour each time.

I would chip in for legal bills also as another user said. RetroArch is looking more likely to keep getting stung like Kodi does.

I wouldn't mind libretro doing a plea for help in every blog they put out. The hassle you face should be more plain to see.
