I remember of 3 for witch I was unable to find the correct zip, they are burned in my brain as I tried so many times: River Boat, Defender and one of the Pacman series. My main problem was to find the correct zip: download one, unzip it, run the batch file and get an error, try with another one or several (all with the same name) and try again. Being totally new to MISTer I just played with computers and consoles before daring to experiment with arcades. For arcades you had to also download the batch/shell, find the rom zip yourself, build the rom and update your MISTer. There was also a way to add the rom to the rbf.Įdit 2: At the time there was no update script, you had to watch the announcements on the forum for new cores or update to existing cores (arcade, console, computer) download it from the repository and update your MISTer. Glad you enjoy it but thanks to Sergey who did a very good job.Įdit: in the pre-mra era you had to load the rom only once and Save settings remembered it. This is the reason that you have to load the rom each time you start the core, even if you save settings. With Sergey core you act as the mra: you start the core and send the rom to the core, like a mra does (figuratively and not technically exact). I hope that this time I posted the right zip.ĭon't forget: this is WIP -> no need to report bugs.Īrcade-Battletoads.zip (1.43 MiB) Downloaded 176 AspieĪlmost: here the rom is send to the core bit by bit which is a good thing for us to be able to use the core but in the pre-mra era you had to build the whole rom in one chunk: unzip the zip and run a provided batch or shell script to get the rom. Not much to see except Service Button set to No. Navigated the menu, ran some diagnostics but no wau to start the game.īack to the OSD. Back to the OSD and time to map the controller. I unzipped the rom, renamed 3 files (extension changed to bin) and uploaded everything to games/Battletoads, even the parts not asked for, you never know.įrom the OSD I loaded each of the 3 parts, one at a time and when done pressed the Reset from the OSD.

I started the core and the core asks to load the different parts of the rom and they must be in games/Battletoads. To be able to start the core I placed it in Others. Time to try that but with not much expectation as I have no idea of the magical formula to build the rom. I remember the old times pre-mra when you had to build the rom and load it from the OSD. I figured out how to build the core, not that difficult.
