Official hakchi2 - NES Mini very simple pimp tool

Try this Rastan (mame2003 core):
https://github.com/kaz321123/Mame2003-Samples/blob/master/rastan.zip

I tried this and it still doesn't work. Do I point to a specific bin file? I changed the command line \bin \mame2003 what am I missing?

@kaz321123
Hello my Friend; thank you for your prompt response and help; i tried that but i was unable to test it; i'm getting the C8 error; i will try again today to fix that issue and post results.
Thanks again

@kaz321123
Hello kaz; just to thank you for your help; the mame games works like a charm; except goldenaxe; but i think i need another working rom.
Thanks for the tip

The solution for the mame 2003 speed issues:
go to settings > frame throttle and set 'maximum run speed' to 1.0
Tested on Xain´d Sleena and works like a charm.

Do the settings apply per core, game, or all cores? Is there a way to save settings per game or per core?

Make sure you don't have a space after bin.

My rastan command line looks like this:
/bin/mame2003 /usr/share/games/nes/kachikachi/CLV-Z-UQNCA/rastan.zip
(space is after mame 2003 however).

Pull Rastan.zip over into the Hakchi program, and then just replace the word 'zip' in the command line with 'mame2003' (make sure to keep a space after mame2003)

I would try mame nes snes first. Then try nes mame snes and try nes snes mame. For me it's always helped having my nes folder in the middle.

Check the link in my signature. Should explain the error. Your flooding the memory, even though in your case your trying to launch a folder it is no different than launching a game as far as NESC is concerned.

Can you post the link? I'm viewing from mobile and I can't see it. It's driving me crazy that I'm away and won't be able to test/fix my problem until later in the week, but my hopes are so much higher than they were before.

Is there list of good MAME games that save?

Worked for 2 people in a row! Hope it fixes yours bro!

Thanks! I'm a little perplexed since Street Fighter Alpha 3 boots up fine, and they should be using the same core.

its working for me

 

[NESjimbo]

its working for me

Super Street Fighter II Turbo works for you? Can you share what settings and core you used? Were any BIOS files needed? World 940223 ROM? Thanks

 

[rot86]

What is the default shader in the @pcm720 compilation?

thx.

Q: Help! I am getting a C8 error code?
A: Occurs when trying to start or playing a game. Combined you have too many ROMs & save files in a single navigation folder. The recommendation is no more than 30 games per navigational folder. When you include the original 30 games as visible you can have the following:

• 1 slot per game: 65
• 2 slots per game: 49
• 3 slots per game: 39
• 4 slots per game: 32

If you hide the original 30 games, but add them back in Hakchi you can have a few additional games. Please note this removes the screensaver demo reels as a result:

• 1 slot per game: 99
• 2 slots per game: 66
• 3 slots per game: 49
• 4 slots per game: 40

IMPORTANT NOTE: This number is strictly for NES games. It is much lower for Non-NES games, likely less than a third. [Lower numbers might have been caused by the SNES9x2010 memory leak bug]

Could you not just use Total Commander to find all of the .nes and .fds games, select and pack the necessary files as .7z, then remove the original files (.nes/.fds)?

On a related note, which NES ROMs can be archived? Just the .nes and .fds ones running from retroarch?

Sure, but I don't wanne mess around with the compression due to the long sync process.

this still doesn't make any sense in my scenario seeing as this was a fresh system with folders that had under 30 games in each of them

 

[Hacking_Myself]

Important question (I guess):

Is there something we can do to test RetroArch or cores compatibility before send ROMs to NES Mini???

 

[dandeleon]

This type of C8 ERROR is fixable?

from what MrTea said he seems to have the right idea, all of the C8 errors I've encountered happened after having long sessions of entering/leaving folders and playing games, the ram must've hit a limit and forces the console to restart itself. If there was a way to clear the ram after you open a folder or leave a folder that would be great.

Hi.
It is possible to emulate C64 & Commodore Amiga 500

And possibility to play the games of pico-8.

Thanks

*chuckles politely*

I tried getting dosbox working, however, and it didn't, and I heard that's rather slow also.

It kept saying 'title' wouldn't run...

DOSBox is running fine. THe only problem is that it seems to support mouse-only; so graphical adventures such as monkey island works fine but keyboard platform games for example don't; they load but you cannot interact. If someone got rid of that problema please upload the .hmod core he is using, thank you.
