    MAME only supports carts for the NEC PC-6001 series, so it's a small library The official hash file is inaccurate and lists Curse of Crowley and Dawn Patrol as unsupported. I fixed both by using the PC-6001mk2 model The PC-6001 Mortal Kombat 2 edition fixed everything! Use the dawnpat.opt to overclock MAME so Dawn Patrol runs faster (Yes, it is still slow but much improved and BASIC games are typically slower) Moon Raiders is awesome! Play it!
  2. Yes, that's what I was going for. Qaz, can you share just the console image?
  3. Would it be possible to divide the bezel into sections and blend or overlay similar gradient to smooth out the image? I did a very quick and sloppy example on the right half and put a red version of your logo on top. I don't have the patience or skill to do it well. Would someone be able to do it?
  4. That's great! It sounds like you have it setup on your own. Can you upload your work as a complete setup? I'm happy the methods I shared helped you get that far. I have been waiting for someone else to start creating similar RetroArch(MAME) setups.
  5. For some reason I thought the Apple 1 was already done. It has a small list of games. That might pop up in the Uploads. I might contact you if I need help.
  6. You're welcome. I've been having fun making them. Well, except for the Mindset but they can't all be winners.

    I was surprised when I couldn't find any existing work for this system. I guess I found the missing piece of that apple. Thankfully, the games load directly so save states are not required unless you want to skip the long loading time. Helpful Tip: Having Caps Lock on breaks the controls! Mame lists joystick devices but I couldn't get it to function. The controls are mapped the best that I could manage. Games: Apple Chomp: Struggle to maneuver an apple through a maze but watch out for ghosts, unresponsive controls, and the Caps Lock key! Atomic Defense: I could only map 4-way control to the right Joystick, fire missiles with L1/L2/R1/R2. Those horrible controls will leave you mostly defenseless, but I survived the first round. Can you? Capt'n Magneto: You are unarmed and running from grumpy aliens who want to harm you with their fists and hurtful words! Tic-Tac-Toe: Truly the killer app for the system! Block the evil Apple III's onslaught of X's with your O's! Marvel at the incredible controls as you press a number and the game actually responses! Is this system a good additional or another bad apple?
  8. I really enjoyed your "better than nothing" comment. It made me laugh but seriously that is the mentality I have. I work on systems that maybe only have one blury image online and sometimes there isn't even audio in the games. When I start a project, I start with almost nothing and try to make it better. And yes, using MAME in RetroArch can accomplish so much. I learned a lot of my techniques by accident. I wish I could say I found information online but there is only hate for mame_libretro. People think it's garage and very limited but I have solved many of the problems mame users have been complaining about.
  9. YES! Finally, someone truly understands me! A Floatingyeti upload: Better than nothing
  10. You're welcome! I'm trying to create a fun reason for people to keep checking the forum/uploads. What obscure and ridiculous system will Floatingyeti upload today? You will have to keep checking to find out.

    I wasn't in the right mindset to make a setup today until I found this old (unreleased?) pc with literally one (partially working) game. This is the kind of obscure system I like to work on! I abbreviated the system name but if you want accuracy its: Mindset Corporation Mindset Personal Computer But that's just silly. Damn, did this suck! I was going to make a proper theme for the single game but I only got as far as the logo from the boxart. I hope the autoload save state works for everybody. I was able to correct the screen position (Bios will not save settings) but it actually drifts during gameplay. Yes, it takes that long to load! No, you can't make a save state later! Put this crap next to the Konix Multisystem.
  12. Thank you, I have been sick and stuck at home the last few days so I've had some extra time. I am literally working at a feverish pace! I will try and find some other obscure systems that haven't been worked on yet.
  13. Version 1.0.2

    A very simple theme for a very simple system. This one requires tape loading and autoload states if you want to launch directly to games. Try to use the provide state.auto files first to hopefully skip all of the game loading steps if not... INSTRUCTIONS: ------------------------------------------------------- Launching games: Type: CLOAD Open Mame Menu (Press Scroll Lock)->Tab->Tape Control->Play Press Tab and wait Type: RUN If there is a tape loading error message Tape Control->Stop then Tape Control->Play I had to try several times to load on some games ------------------------------------------------------- Auto Loading: Create RetroArch Save State at Title Screen Change gamename.state1 to gamename.state.auto ------------------------------------------------------- Controls (already mapped in laser700.cfg to controller) Space = fire, J = left, L = right, I = up, K = down
  14. I was planning to but I'm going to put this system on hold and wait to see what Hoscarconh comes up with. I think he will do a better job. The existing mame artwork for Game and Watch can be altered to fit this set. Hoscarcohn already made a main theme and a database can be made from the files i uploaded in the first comment.
  15. Thank you for all your hard work! These are excellent. I was working on this as well. I'm attaching all 22 that I found. Maybe that can help your project. Elektronika.zip

    I couldn't get controls to work for: astrof (Astro Fighter) bersek (Berserk) spcrocks (Space Rocks) They require Hex Keypad, MAME does list that input device but I couldn't get it to work. If anyone can figure that out, please contact me. I altered Mackano's Fade for M&D Monon Color.
  17. Thank you, I don't mind at all! I work to make the systems usable; my media is rushed sometimes; I always hope that other people will make better media.
  18. Version 1.0.1

    697 downloads

    MAME core 0.247 required I had to turn on Dip Switch: Port 1-4 to get Mech Cycle games working. Using RA Option: Main CPU Overclock = 30 will fix the speed of the bios/intro/menus, basically everything but the actual gameplay. I ended up not using MCO but maybe someone can find the magic setting. The system is very finicky. I had to reboot my PC a few times when all the games decided to stop launching but everything does work.

    A clone of the SG-1000 but the Aaronix released SG-1000 II (Taiwan) had a unique game library. Full explanation: Here
  20. Thank you! I appreciate that you included images of the handheld devices in the themes.

    A long overdue correction to a mistake I made almost ten years ago. This is a true Sega SC-3000 setup with only exclusive tape format games and no repackaged SG-1000 games. Credit to Shredder: I rearranged his SC-3000 theme Full Instructions Here
  22. Nice to see you in the Uploads section! Some of your work inspired me to get back into making complete setups for the last year.
  23. It was a lot of work today but I'm happy you told me about the issue. I had broken controls on more than 20 systems in my Hyperspin after updating to latest RetroArch. I had no idea! For anyone reading this: Please message me if anything I upload doesn't work or stops working. You are not bothering me, you are helping me and anyone else who has an issue.
