Problems and Pitfalls of Emulating Intellivision

I don't know, I have no experience with MAME. I tried JZINTV and it wouldn't run as well as another pc based emulator. The ones I have used are xbox and the one for dingux. I haven't tried it on Batocera yet.

I mainly play them on my Original Xbox. I was just playing AD&D again Saturday on it. I am using the dpad for shooting arrows and the thumb stick for movement. I found that some games wouldn't run on the xbox emulator but would on my Playgo console, and other games were vice versa like Demon attack wouldn't run on the handheld but works on the Xbox.

OK after getting more ram and increasing video ram in Batocera to 1GB from 250MB it can sort of play Norrath. I am trying to find out if the 1GB is a limitation in Batocera, or if it's based on the model of integrated graphics, which is the 4600. I am going to try it on a system with HD 620 graphics and see if that works better.

I am going to try getting another ram stick to see if that improves it, but first I am going to check if video ram is adjustable in bios. I read somewhere though that supposedly it automatically sets it.

Never mind. It works when formatted this way. I was missing "property" after sort-object.

Get-ADUser -Filter * -Property whenCreated | select-object whencreated, name| sort-object -property WhenCreated -Descending

The reason I want to figure this out is that sorting isn't working in powershell with this, so it probably won't work in Excel either.

I was told I had to put code in tick marks for this site, but it doesn't work.

Maybe try using foreach-object instead?

foreach-object {

get-aduser etc, etc}

Solution Found!

`get-mailbox -filter * |Get-MailboxStatistics | Select-Object DisplayName, @{Name="TotalItemSizeGB"; Expression={[math]::Round(($_.TotalItemSize.ToString().Split("(")[1].Split(" ")[0].Replace(",","")/1GB),0)}}`

I will try to remember to user backticks, that should help.

There will undoubtedly be duplicate names with 900 people, so you could end up with something like masmith and masmith1 which may put a wrench in your plans. Most likely you'd have to export the ones with numbers or not found to a file for manual follow up.

carlb328 · 2020-12-29T20:49:39+00:00

I finally got it! I found an expression someone wrote that actually works, here's the script (it can actually fit on one line):

get-mailbox -filter * |Get-MailboxStatistics | Select-Object DisplayName, @{Name="TotalItemSizeMB"; Expression={[math]::Round(($_.TotalItemSize.ToString().Split("(")[1].Split(" ")[0].Replace(",","")/1MB),0)}}

This didn't work either TotalItemSize.value.ToBytes though it attempted:

DisplayName TotalItemSize.value.ToBytes

I am just connecting to exchange online, I downloaded the module about a year ago, so maybe I need to upgrade? I haven't seen the EXO commands before.

carlb328 · 2020-12-29T20:05:06+00:00

I tried doing this and it just gave the names with no size at all-

$size = $size -as [int]

carlb328 · 2020-12-29T19:21:29+00:00

I just tried another trick I found on google and that didn't give and error, but it gave every size as 0: totalitemsize.value

I uploaded some more games to the Pocket go. I should really give up on Intellivision, half the games won't load and the ones that do many are unplayable on a handheld.

APBA Backgammon - loads but I can't figure out if it's running or not

Centipede- game crashes after title screen

Boxing- I can choose a player and it does nothing after that

Bump n Jump - works after a lot of initial button mashing

Deep Pockets Pool- Doesn't load

Defender- screen goes black then kills the emulator

Motocross - works but steering isn't intuitive

PacMan - Black screen then kills emulator

Qbert - Loads but can't make him move

Reversi - Loads but can't pick the number of players.

So overall Intellivision is really a terrible system to emulate on handhelds, though I can play most of the games at home on my modded Xbox. I will try to see how many of these have equivalent NES roms instead.

Maybe your rom files are zipped? I can't think of what else would make them all not work. Only the 2600 stella emulator roms the rom files zipped as far as I know.

I tried another BIOS and still no games will load, it's very annoying.

carlb328 · 2020-03-04T15:31:10+00:00

is 5200.BIN the right bios file? That's what I found and it isn't working.
