How much fast ram does star trek need?...heres alittle problem I encountered....for the record I'm only going with approx. 1500 amiga games or so....so I have those games in a rom folder and made a duplicate as well...1 I put in the hdd and the other I placed in the shield internal....the roms itself are hdf format also....if I load from the hdd , I get that kickstart screen as if I didnt have any kickstarts.....so I go and test the same exact roms with the same kickstarts but I load from the internal...it boots up and plays with no issues.....I've setup both cd32 and cdtv and both are located on the hdd....they load fine as well and I also split the puae core into 3 separate cores and properties (basically each system has its own separate core so any saves can be for the core itself and not individual games like bezels and whatnot).....anyone have any idea as to why it plays from the shield internal and not from the hdd?....only time I've encountered this situation was with Thomas mo5 and Thompson t08 both with retroarch

.

Day of the tentacle for msdos, u can go to the 2nd floor and on the PC play manic mansion...scummvm version doesn't allow that

Ms dos will take the most time....mess (old computer systems) are also fully compatible as long as the drivers are working for mame up to 0.197...this includes systems that dont have a hash XML like sony pocketstation or sega svm...command line will be your friend so u wont need to rename any roms

Quick lil addition concerning amiga and cd32 and cdtv....in my own experience and opinion I think it's best also to split the core for each separate system...instructions can be found on retroarch website....also with some homebrew games or even regualr games some will need to have separate uae files to launch properly....doom and doom2 are examples for cd32....I use a slightly older core and making the changes in the options didnt work....the uae file must be edited and that's what will be launched for those particular fastram required games...threw that in there in case anyone gets stuck on a black screen trying to launch those games

Have u tried the new puae core??...u should because it plays cdtv, cd32, and hdf,adf, and whdload games...give it a try and has full controller support for cd32/cdtv and keyboard and mouse and joystick for amiga

As far as msdos goes...its best to load them via conf files....basically the conf file has all the settings and what will be the c drive and what will be the d drive if applicable for cd based games...they also need to be on internal drive as I had errors loading from my hdd....scummvm is a bit tricky and needs subfolders...basically each subfolder will hold the game plus a .scummvm txt file inside which is what u will use to launch the game...the xml must also reflect the subfolders (I have the notepad++ code to reflect the subfolders)....amiga u can use uae4arm or puae core in retroarch...myself and ransome have tested alot of games and all seem to load good and puae has on board keyboard or u can use a bluetooth keyboard...keyboard is also good on scummvm and msdos.....

I havent tried studio2 but I got many many mess systems up and running...the hardest were the old russian computers and basically I had to either watch videos on the actual games on a real pc or try 2 download instruction manuals for the games...basically did that to configure the buttons ...that's basically what u gotta do unless u already know the keys

Check other systems if it does the same....if so that means u have the shield setting turned on to kill all apps upon exiting....if u leave hyperspin to jump on an emulator, technically the shield sees it as if u left that app so it will kill it....when u exit the emulator, only place u can go back to is shield main menu

The uae file may be incorrect...even if u click the file using a file explorer, that will auto launch the emulator to the game if all is correct...

Did u set those folders in the directory settings?....it seems like u didnt because when u 1st opened the menu it automatically pointed to the default location in hidden files section...I can confirm that I'm using hyperspin 1.8 retroarch3264 and using retroarch 1.7.6 and also using retroarch64 1.7.5....I changed all important locations that I personally use to edit things like configs folder, overlays folder downloads folder and info folder....did it for both retroarch apks...also changed the open menu buttons to start +back and exit left and right thumbs....did it twice on both apks...1 for standalone apk and again after hyperspin launched both apks....everything is confirmed working as it should

My fault....I had the shield button enabled to kill apps if not currently using...turned it off and all is working now as normal ?

Hey everyone... quick question....I had to reset my shield TV because I downloaded a shady apk that was causing my shield to act up and it would restart regularly on its own....so anyways moving forward , I installed the 1.8 Hyperspin apk and everything seems to work as far as my bezels per game and controller configs and even loading my own custom cores within the downlaods folder...my big issue is now now matter which apk I use (retroarch1.7.6, or retroarch64 1.7.5) when I exit out a game it restart hyperspin.....it doesn't exit back to the game wheels but instead I get the hyperspin startup video then the main menu wheels.....anyone experience that or is it just me?

Finally finished setting up about 500 games from msdos for nvidia shield...each game has been mapped to the controller and can still use a keyboard and mouse...all games have been set to the internal drive (500g pro edition)..each game launches via a conf file and each game has been checked for speed , graphics, and control settings.. https://youtu.be/fhk0KkHt5Mo

Sometimes things change with updates....I noticed this when I was testing the scummvm apk...I had like 4 different versions and each one had a different launch parameter
