    • RE: PiGRRL (ZeroW)

      After a long time of silence i found some time for the project.

      Based on RB41/batocera I added the SPI-driver for the display and my both addons (C64DTV based on vice and AmigaCD32 based on uae4arm).
      This weekend i try to finish my work (GPIO-Buttons and display fps-tweaking).

      early testrun:

    • RE: Raspberry 3B+ kein Recalbox Update!!!

      Ich würde Recalbox mehr als Zwiebel sehen.
      An die unterste Schicht kommt man nicht ran.
      Die machen "Ihr" Ding … musste ich zumindest so feststellen.
      Vergleichbar mir Kernalupdates ….
      Dann gibt es ein paar "Freaks" (neudeutsch "Nerds") die sich
      mit dem System beschäftigen und hier und da "Hand anlegen".
      In der Schicht gibt es viele hilfsbereite Leute.
      Jetzt alle zu beschimpfen ist oberflächlich.
      So wie ich herausgehörte habe gibt es nur ZWEI Leute die wirklich
      alles am Stück kompilieren und releasen.
      Die beiden werden sicherlich auch noch ein Leben neben Recalbox besitzen.
      Arbeit, Familie, Zahnarztbesuch usw.

      Die Kommunikation zu diesen beiden ist unmöglich … das geht scheinbar nur über Mittelsmänner.
      Und die haben den Hinweis bekommen, wenn PLUS fertig, dann fertig, vorher kein Komment.
      Die können nix anderes sagen als …bitte warten.

      Hey, bleib mal locker …
      Wer aufmerksam mitliest wird schon gesehen haben, dass ich das "Problem" nicht habe.
      Verwende doch bis zum richtigen Release eine Version von Batocera.
      "batocera-linux.xorhub,com/upgrades/rpi3/stable/last/"
      Die läuft auf dem PLUS

      All soldering works are done. The next few days are reserved for software setup.

    • RE: C64DTV (Direct 2 TV) Emulation -AddOn-

      Has anyone ever tried to find a picture with the top view of the DTV? I had to paint some sketches first. The controlstick of the DTV is actually black, I used the red color from the original Competition Pro 5000 joystick.

    • RE: C64DTV (Direct 2 TV) Emulation -AddOn-

      I had no better idea, how to visualize a DTV.

      Btw. I use a combination of MS Paint, xnview and inkscape to create a theme.
      First I paint (in a oldskool way) the picture with MS Paint, convert it to png, reduce colors and save it with a transparent backgroud with xnview.
      The final picture is converted to svg with the inkscape function "draw bitmap".

      But …. the final picture is sometimes too smooth, and i miss some sharpness in the result.
      And my files are bigger than files from other themes.

      Can anyone help, is there a tutorial for themes and recommended software ?

      I don't mind. It depends on the recalbox staff.

      UPDATED USER-ARCHIV (12.MAY`18)
      https://www48.zippyshare.com/v/2v6HQtDP/file.html

      New install instructions:

      -=# WinSCP + PuTTY - howto (fresh installed RB 18.04.20) #=-

      PuTTY (login "recalboxroot" or "linux" on batocera):
      01.) /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation stop
      02.) mount -o remount,rw /

      WinSCP:
      03.) copy the c64dtv directory from the addon-archiv

      • C:.. ..\dtv64-addon\etc\emulationstation\themes\recalbox-next

      to recalbox

      • /etc/emulationstation/themes/recalbox-next

      If you prefer the old theme or you are using batocera-linux, take
      themes/recalbox instead

      04.) walktrough the new subdirectory and make all fileattributes 0755

      05.) open the textfile from the archiv

      • C:.. ..\dtv64-addon\etc\emulationstation\add2_es_systems.cfg.txt

      mark the complete text and copy&paste it in the recalbox-config at

      • /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg

      in the line after <systemList>
      save the changed configfile

      At this point we created a new menu entry for the dtv64 system!
      (currently there is no graphic visible in the next-theme, only the logo-text .. i am workin on it)
      Now we are going on with adding the files:

      06.) copy the c64dtv directory from the addon-archiv

      • C:.. ..\dtv64-addon\recalbox\share\roms
        to recalbox
      • /recalbox/share/roms

      07.) copy the x64dtv binary and the scripts subdirectory from

      • C:.. ..\dtv64-addon\usr\bin
        to recalbox
      • /usr/bin

      08.) walktrough the new subdirectory and make all fileattributes 0755
      same for the x64dtv binary

      09.) copy the required libraries and vice subdirectory from

      • C:.. ..\dtv64-addon\usr\lib
        to recalbox
      • /usr/lib

      10.) walktrough the new subdirectory and make all fileattributes 0755
      same for the libncurses.so.6.0 & libreadline.so.7.0 binaries

      PuTTY:
      11.) jump to the /usr/lib subdirectory with

      • cd /usr/lib

      12.) build the required vice links for the new libraries with

      • ln -f -b -s libncurses.so.6.0 libncurses.so.6
      • ln -f -b -s libreadline.so.7.0 libreadline.so.7

      13.) all operations are done, restart the system with

      • reboot

      (required extra step for BATOCERA ONLY!!)
      batocera-users MUST save the overlay before rebooting with

      • /recalbox/scripts/recalbox-save-overlay.sh

      Now it should be up and running ...
      BR
      Ratte


      REQUIRED BIOS FILES ARE:

      • none (vice includes a dtv-kernal)
        additonal possible: dtvloader.rom
        (for customized welcome screens or so on ...)

      SUPPORTED GAME ROM FILES:

      • .BIN (2MB DTV FLASHROM IMAGES)
      • .PRG (SINGLE FILE SUPPORT)
      • .D64 (1541 DISK IMAGES)

    • RE: C64DTV (Direct 2 TV) Emulation -AddOn-

      @secamfr OK, I found the problem.
      On my test image it is now up and running.
      There are more differences between recalbox "buildroot" and recalbox "batocera" than i expected.
      I will send you a privat link for a testarchive, i dont want to make the same mistake again.
      Are you willing to do such a testrun?
