AMIGA CD32 EMULATION - HOW TO -

[Ratte]

@gaetan @gwyllion Please take care of the "cue" fix!
Post 7 & 10
Otherwise you cant play multifile games (cds with soundtracks).

At the moment i compare the uae4arm with the amiberry-uae.
There are some sweet updates since I released the cd32 addon.
I will add a dtv64 emulator with the next addon-release.

@ratte Yes, the games I tried were multifiles with cds soundtracks as you described.
I'm sorry, but I don't se what you're talking about "Post 7 & 10".
Is there a new thing to add to the tutorial ?

Are those steps the good one :
"
Take this files: Amiga CD32
mount -o remount rw /
Copy lib, recalbox and usr from the file downloaded
Inside /usr/bin/uaearm/ rename uae4arm-rpiX (X is RPI 2, 3, etc...) for uae4arm
Copu from file downloaded etc/emulationstation/themes/recalbox to /recalbox/share_init/system/.emulationstation/themes/recalbox
Add in /recalbox/share_init/system/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg the following:
<system>
<fullname>AmigaCD32</fullname>
<name>amigacd32</name>
<path>/recalbox/share/roms/amigacd32</path>
<extension>.iso .Iso .ISO</extension>
<command>/usr/bin/uae4arm/scripts/start.sh %ROM%</command>
<platform>amigacd32</platform>
<theme>amigacd32</theme>
<emulators>
<emulator name="uae4arm">
</emulator>
</emulators>
</system>

Be sure you have all the permissions done:
chmod 755 /usr/bin/uae4arm/uae4arm*
chmod 755 /usr/bin/uae4arm/scripts/*
chmod +x /lib/*
Add .iso to /recalbox/share/roms/amigacd32
Add the CORRECT BIOS to /recalbox/share/bios
5f8924d013dd57a89cf349f4cdedc6b1 kick31CD32.rom
bb72565701b1b6faece07d68ea5da639 CD32ext.rom

Cd32 Works great with the Amiga Emu which is provided with the official recalbox release (just press f12 change setting to cd32 and reboot after adding the bios files). My usb pad won’t work but keyboard and mouse does.

@Ratte @Gwyllion did you also notice that amiga cd32 is working just as it's mention by @djtwok ?

Hi,

I have been testing this guide on my Raspberrt Pi3b+ with Racalbox Pi3b+ beta and It didn't work to me.

When I add:

<system>
<fullname>AmigaCD32</fullname>
<name>amigacd32</name>
<path>/recalbox/share/roms/amigacd32</path>
<extension>.iso .Iso .ISO</extension>
<command>/usr/bin/uae4arm/scripts/start.sh %ROM%</command>
<platform>amigacd32</platform>
<theme>amigacd32</theme>
<emulators>
<emulator name="uae4arm">
</emulator>
</emulators>
</system>

in /recalbox/share_init/system/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg then Recalbox doesn't start, if I remove those lines from the file then Recalbox starts fine. Someone have tested this emulator over a Raspberry 3b+ with latest Recalbox beta? Thanks!!!

[djtwok]

Any news about this ? Will cd32 be included in future releases of recalbox ?

[voljega]

@djtwok yes when we upgrade amiberry version

Hi,

I have the rgb-pi recalbox build. Everything is working fine except for amiga when launching the amiga UI (F12). I am getting the UI in weird unreadable resolution. Anyone can help?

Thanks
