>What is MiSTer?
MiSTer is an open project that aims to recreate various classic computers, game consoles and arcade machines, using modern hardware. It allows software and game images to run as they would on original hardware, using peripherals such as mice, keyboards, joysticks and other game controllers.

It's also cool when mister fags don't immediately attack you for being skeptical, because the mister has been a jumbling mess and it's only saving grace is the N64 emulator. But, with the advent of the N64 you just invited all the nintoddlers into your fold, where the PlayStation can't play. Have fun chumming it up with bing Bing wahooers and oot-aid drinkers.

So they recently updated the Mega Drive core. If mister is perfect and just the same as a real Mega Drive, why did the core need to be updated? How did it become more Mega Drivey than the previous "perfect and just the same as a real Mega Drive" core?

That’s not stated enough. It takes real people to actually put in a lot of work to implement an fpga core. I definitely was under the impression that it just works with everything up to 5th gen perfectly cycle accurate from the get go. I got that impression from these threads though. Not from browsing them but just glancing at posts in passing. And the “cycle accurate core” phrase seemed to catch my eye one too many times, I guess. It’s not just me though, a lot of people had/have the same idea. It feels like that’s what was being proposed.

>BD is necesssary since I have tons of blu ray disc games

What PC games were ever released on BD? For years they were reluctant to even release PC games on DVD and released them as multi-CDs instead out of worry that people would not have a DVD drive long LONG after they were standard and any game released like that would not run on a system too old to have a DVD drive over a CD drive anyway. Computers basically never even came with Blu-Ray drives, even the few PCs today you can buy pre-built that still have optical drive options have DVD-RW drives. Just about any system with a Blu-Ray drive was either custom-built or had it's DVD drive replace with a Blu-Ray drive aftermarket.

Not really, there are a shitload of case options, as well as different boards that are completely different shaped/form factors to plug the DE-10 into other than the usual sandwich design people are used to. Ones designed to make it look more like a retro console, plug into a JAMMA connector on an arcade cabinet, become an ITX form factor so you can install it in any ITX-compatible PC case, etc.

The Apevia Sniper cases are fairly popular and sells out. They're not cheap and it doesn't look like a toy. Maybe to a normie like you who lacks any sense of style and prefers something dull and boring, which would explain your shit taste. See you're the type of dork who would pick a boring box or box-like design for a case(NES, Gamecube). I'd go with a case that has cool stylistic design(Sega Genesis, Xbox). So yes the design of the PC case I chose has soul because it has style. You on the other hand would settle for a used Dell case for your PC. No soul or style.

Your PS3's loader should be able to just directly rip the game to the HDD, no need to go through a PC, which IIRC will result in an image that won't work in emulators because you need the PS3 to decrypt it first. Many homebrew ISO loaders (PS2, Wii, Xbox) can use the console itself to rip the game.

Xbox used a non-standard format, without using an actual Xbox to rip the games you would need a very specific range of DVD drives flashed with specific homebrew firmware and specific software to rip them directly on a PC. Same goes for just about all Nintendo systems that used optical disks.

And I would hardly call my RGB-modified HAF X case boring, finding a 230MM RGB fan for the front was a bitch, but that thing you posted definitely looks like a budget toy case.

And of course I would not buy a Mac. It's fuckling Apple, screw their trash. Especially their first-gen Fisher Price iMacs that looked straight out of a kids show.

You don't need dual-RAM, you can use HDMI to VGA if you wanted, you can get the analog I/O board for much less, you do NOT need those Y/C adapters if you get the analog board. And as shown earlier, there are many case options. There are all-in-one solutions as well that basically combine all those parts you mentioned into a single motherboard-like PCB that you just plug the DE-10 into.

Last time I read up on that method, it seemed like rainbowing was an issue across most console cores. Although rainbowing is a given on Genesis as I have one and I'm used to it. The active Y/C adapter offers the cleanest composite possible, but it does not get rid of the edge dots in most cases which is also native to this signal. I'm already set on getting the active Y/C adapter anyway when I decide to drop the money on MiSTer.

Maybe if there are only two or max four consoles you care about.

I don't need HDMI adapters for my hacked mini consoles or modern consoles, my CRT TV died out(no longer powers on) and so I've already bought HDMI adapters for mainly my 5th and 6th gen consoles, didn't need HDMI converters or Flashcarts for my cartridge based consoles because I got the hacked console minis for them.

I use the Satiator for my Saturn, I use MODE for my Dreamcast, I have a modded Xbox, a modded Gamecube. And although it did cost me money to get all those things, it was a lot faster(years before the existence of the MiSTer) and cheaper(buying them one by one) than getting a MiSTer for $615, a device that originally only emulated 8 bit and 16 bit game consoles.

None of my consoles show signs of rot. Also a lot of electronics(including yours) uses plastic.

The plastic I have aren't "junk". They're worth money, especially if I decided to sell them on eBay. If my plastic consoles and games were junk, why then is my copy of Power Stone 2 for the Dreamcast(CIB) is worth over $200? I bought it for $3 at a thrift store by the way, a decade and a half before it was even worth $200. My Sega Master System, accessories and the games I have for it are worth over $1200 and I bought it for only $60 via Facebook. I could literally retire when I reach the age of 70 selling off all my games and consoles. You on the other hand will have nothing worth selling, due to your hate of plastic.

In what way?

If you mean, if they can add more consoles the current MiSTer can't do or increase accuracy of something like the N64 core, that would require a better FPGA, which is going to be hard to find a reasonably priced alternative for. the DE-10 board is already heavily subsidized, there are FPGAs which are weaker than it that cost more because of that subsidized cost, it's the main reason the DE-10 board was chosen for the project.

That being said the FPGA the MARS is using sometimes is available for suspiciously cheap... and other times is more than twice the price of the DE-10 board. But that's just a FPGA, not an entire board with an ARM CPU on it like the DE-10 is.

You realize the DE-10 is being subsidized by the freaking US government because it's intended as an educational tool, right? That would be one hell of an investor with nothing to gain.

>And if they did, could it simply be combined with the existing hardware in an adhoc way for a monolithic nuMister?

If it has the exact same GPIO pinout, and the architecture of the FPGA and ARM as well as other components of the DE-10 are similar enough it MIGHT function as a drop-in replacement, but more likely you will need a new set of add-ons that are designed for the different FPGA board instead of being able to re-use your old ones.

There is also the question of actually being able to do said newer systems in FPGA. CPUs and especially GPUs started seeing massive increases in complexity after Gen 5, even if you had a FPGA that could theoretically handle the guts of a PS2 or GameCube, it might not be humanely feasible for someone to re-create those in a FPGA unless you had a whole team working on it or something, it would be a hell of a lot for one man to take on.

Technically feasible if a viable FPGA is found, but would likely require a team effort instead of one person working on it.

Although about two years ago the Saturn, PS1, and N64 were considered impossible for the current MiSTer so we won't really know until there is a viable new FPGA and someone attempts it. Even the MARS's FPGA is likely not going to go beyond Dreamcast.

Sure friend

I'm using video_mode=14 for 1440p and hdr=1. You have to turn on "HDR Tone Mapping" on your TV for HDR to work properly. Mine's an LG C1 OLED.

The shadowmask is a slight edit of the AG-2 mask to be a little brighter without affecting colors: https://pastebin.com/M6DkbE1n

For Scanlines, I use SAL_Dk_040_Br_060.txt for everything besides N64.

N64 doesn't have adaptive scanlines yet, so I'm using a variant that doesn't boost brightness. These were only posted on the settings discord channel and I couldn't find an external link to them anywhere, so here's the zip file https://filetransfer.io/data-package/tI3HN4TZ#link just unzip them under your filters folder. I'm using SAL_NoBoost_Dk_050_Br_050.txt for N64.

I don't use gamma boost since it's not needed, I've calibrated the colors with these settings under 240p test suite and it looked pretty great. But feel free to play with them. Sharpness is also to your liking, I generally use GS Sharpness 70.

[Anonymous No.10487368]

>>10487356
As far as I understand they adapt to the content being displayed, they'll boost brightness in lighter areas and change in thickness according, like on a CRT. Since N64 core coesn't support them yet it just ends up boosting everything and destroying colors. So the noboost variant has the thickening aspect without the brightness boost. It still gets pretty bright thanks to HDR though.

Better question to ask is where can you find all these CPU accuracy test results or how to get them yourself (what program to run on the PS1 that tests them), then you can just run the test yourself and see.

I'd provide it, but I have no idea what they use to test, there are a couple of SNES and NES test roms that do this, unsure which PS1 tests they used.

Not really, you'd be wasting a couple hundreds on getting just N64 working. The MiSTer also has the equivalent of a Retrotink5x on it, which is $300 by itself. And the bonus of running all the other consoles as well. It's a no brainer.

Here is F-Zero X with most filters disabled running on the latest N64 core. I don't think even an HDMI mod with these same settings enabled through ROM hacking or a Retrotink 4K could match how sharp it looks in person.

[Anonymous No.10488073]

>>10488024
Actualy UltraHDMI's sharpening thing is better, since it doesn't disable the effects but does some trickery to get a very sharp image out of it, with anti-aliasing etc preserved. But it costs an arm and a leg.

[Anonymous No.10488079]

>>10488073
You can freely enable and disable each filter on a case by case basis in the menu on MiSTer. For example you could disable the bilinear blur and the edge AA but keep the texture filtering and dithering.

[Anonymous No.10488159]

>>10488079
Yeah, I know that, but you don't actually want to do that. Games were designed around the filtering, you're removing intended detail. What UltraHDMI's Deblur feature does is get a very sharp image with all the filtering intact. Hopefully we can get something like that on the core.

that was for de10-nano itself, shipping is expensive but it was 1 and a half day shipping from taiwan handed to me by fedex. fastest shipping ive ever had.

from there I just bought an io hub which was $45 for the digital hdmi version and used my usb with wifi/bluetooth. Also bought 128MB for $50 , so its no where near $615 where the fuck are you getting this number from lol.

The one advantage with a tink4k would be more robust shadowmask options. You can get very detailed shadowmask emulation in 4k, and a lot of models need that much resolution for an accurate reproduction. Like if you want consumer CRT shadowmasks, 4k is the only way. You could also make masks that emulate the colors of the subpixels on LCD displays like on the GBA, GBC, etc, (like the Analogue Pocket does) those don't look good on MiSTer; it's a bit limited due to resolution. But the Trinitron style masks are very good at 1080p/1440p and those are my favorite ones.

People don't talk a lot about it but it's one of my favorite things on the MiSTer. I can whip up a mask filter using the editor (https://bool.space/mister/ShadowMaskEditor.htm)) and have it look any way I want. The scanline options are great too. I find MiSTer's filter options much better to get exactly what I want out of than something like Retroarch's shaders, but maybe those are just too complicated for me.

I love commodore16 and vic20 and have a lot of nostalgia for them. The c16 in particular is notorious for chips crapping out so I'm glad that fpga implementations exist.

[Anonymous No.10488938]

>>10488352
It sure can do a lot. One of the things I like is how FPGA cores interface directly with peripherals, the obvious ones being SNAC and CRT but others are serial, MIDI and on the c64 core IEC to interface drives. Real tapes can also load in the ADC for most tape systems which is neat.

Even HDMI is relatively low level and removes latency compared to the abstraction on emulators which have to render through shared kernel, driver and GPU. It's just neat and comfy T B H.

Was the Zeus/ZeusII arcade hardware based on the N64 at all? Or was it it's own thing? If it was based on the N64 maybe once Robert's N64 core is finished that can be used as a base to make a core for that game. I wouldn't hold my breath though because even in MAME it's a laughably broken mess and has been for years, supposedly due to how much of a nightmare trying to emulate the Zeus hardware is.

I got the Everdrive 64 X7 for free, thanks to redeeming my bing points for Amazon Gift Cards. I have no need for an RGB mod, I just use the Kaico HDMI adapter, then run it through my mClassic(which I bought long before I started buying HDMI adapters for my consoles). Overall I'm satisfied with how it all worked out, especially since there are no good N64 emulators and I didn't want to wait years to emulate on some FPGA device.

Contradictive information, especially when you're going by prices of either an incomplete MiSTer or another incomplete variant. But the actual price can be found through the screenshots posted here or through a quick google search that led me to MiSTerAddOns and the price for a complete MiSTer is still...$615! Amazing how those sell out quickly. I guess people prefer a completed MiSTer than an incomplete MiSTer.

I actually appreciate my new MiSTer peers. Even though their initial intent will be fore playing 5th gen cores, they will inevitably creep into the other console cores and maybe even the arcade cores attracting discussion for more games. It's common practice for people to load up on complete romsets or even just use the HTGDB sets so they will be seeing games that would have never considered playing.
