By size I mean this...on this screen shot the height is set to 400....now if u test addams family and donkey kong with the same config settings what I have found is that width and height is perfect for addams family but this same cfg seems to large in height for donkey kong....at a height of 400 I can't see the 1st layer or 1st floor of the game when it starts...now idk if it's because of my tv 65inch curve....I haven't tested all the games yet as I been busy but I will try to lower the height for donkey kong to test it later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will make the boot take priority. And set the height to 480 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bippym Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 It's definitely weird. Everything is working here. I have a few games running now Your path in the config doesn't seem to match the path of your folders. You seem. To have an extra hyperspin folder in the UAE file...

I can't see why it's the WEstern Digital share, it's a Public share so every system has full read/write on it. Every other system works except Amiga.

sanchezmike01 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I'm going to try this new method for the hell of it....lmao.....I already been thru hell making over 2200 hdf files that have included unzipping the whdload then renaming the whdload folder the same as the zip because media is named same as the zip and not the folder inside...thennnnnn rename all slave to game.slave....then do the process of making the hdf.....all that for approx 2200 games... yea what else can be worse that I can expect....lmaoooooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my RetroArch system folder, I have it in my Hyperspin folder on my NAS for convenience so I can read/write to it from my PC without issues.

I agree....my initial test didn't load any hdf stored on my hdd....once I moved them to the shield root ,they worked....for some weird reason my hdf works from the shield root and my adf work from the hdd....if u have alot of hdf like I do (2200) then u can batch script the uae cfgs from the batch thatman posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's it, Amiga HDF will not work over a NAS, even with full public permissions. I just switched it over to the local folder and it works. That goes for Pouteur's method and bippym's method. Hope this saves someone else the hassle. Thanks guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep very few roms on the shield itself....but it seems as if amiga hdf is mandatory, openbor, and one or 2 other ..I also keep my windows95 image there and some win95 iso games for msdos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use magic box...I like that emulator because u can use the built in Keymapper which allows u to map any keyboard key or function with the controller.....because it's msdos I recommend u also get a Bluetooth keyboard as its easier to type in commands to set games up....once the games have been. Imported u can launch and control everything with the controller....now with this u can emulate windows 95 so u can play windows iso games like fallout2 and many others...only downfall is idk the parameters to launch from the wheel and the apk creator doesn't use a frontend and he really doesn't know what hyperspin needs to launch from the wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If an emulator or app isn't working with NAS, it may be trying to write/extract files in that particular folder. Perhaps you need to set write-access for the NAS login being used.

lilcza Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 NAS drives are writable on the Shield TV, with the 7.0 Android update. Just goto Settings - Storage - Network Devices then select your NAS and log in as Registered user, put in your admin or writable account info.

TODAY, on Shield, NAS drives aren't write-able. Actually, that's not true. My RetroArch system folder and cfg file are on my NAS and RetroArch writes and re-saves the cfg file regularly.

thatman84 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Little update on this. Bippym has arrange new additions to the uae4arm emulator? We have a beta apk for testing and getting all the configs and artwork naming issues worked out.....it will get released at some point. All in all this is shaping up to pit Amiga emulation with Hyperspin in a good place. Lots to do but watch this space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also glad others are engaging emulator developers for improvements. Most are willing if you ask for small fixes/tweaks nicely! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
