Entire sound channels just missing, tons of games affected, possibly NES, N64, and GB as well. This is not an issue with most software emulators or the Analog Pocket.https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/GBA_MiSTer/issues/143https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/issues/1019How the fuck is this acceptable for what is supposed to be an accurate replacement to original hardware? The difference is night and day
>>12468395You're using a free emulator. If there's a problem than make a fix and open up a pull request on GitHub.
>>12468396>a free emulatorOn specialized hardware you have to buy to use that emulatorMeanwhile you can just use any regular computer from the last 15 years and run GBA games perfectly with mGBA
>>12468395Someone sayed " Hey, there exist a patch for FFVI GBA audo to make her sound like not dogshit " So i downloaded such a patch and putted it in my romAnd it still sound like a shitGba is a shitty sound maker i think
>>12468403I think mGBA actually has the same issue, mesen and the other more accurate emulators work fine though I love my MiSTer but wish they would fix this as it's a massive glaring inaccuracy that probably has an easy fix given that Analog Pocket has no issue with the core.
>>12468414>I think mGBA actually has the same issue, mesen and the other more accurate emulators work fine thoughI think you're confusing it with Visual Boy AdvancemGBA is one of the most accurate GBA emulators
>>12468403>On specialized hardwareNo it isn't. That's like saying a raspberry pi is specialized hardware. You bought a generic FPGA board for students and you loaded a free emulator package onto it, literally the same as setting up a RetroPi.>you can just use any regular computer from the last 15 years and run GBA games perfectlyNo you can't
>>1246842599.9% of people in first world countries already own an x86 machine
>>12468426And?
>>12468395My $600 mister runs gba 102% accurate. Stop buying those cheap chinese clones, they are a total scam
>>12468423Nah, mGBA is not really that accurate, plus it has the same audio issues (which you can test on Sonic Advance 2)https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/GBA_Tests
>>12468395I've never noticed audio issues. However I only play a handful of games for that console.
>>12468437Funny you're linking to the emulation wiki, because mGBA is one of the two emulators they recommend:https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Game_Boy_Advance_emulators
>>12468443Look at the audio test zip in the OP of that linked thread, it's super obvious. Basically an entire channel is missing
>>12468449It's recommended because it's generally accurate enough and has low performance reqs and nice QoL features. In terms of accuracy it's not that great (and it has the same audio issue as MiSTer)
>>12468395>supposed to be an accurate replacement to original hardwareNobody has ever made this claim. Your tulpa doesn't count.
>buying specialized EMULATOR HARDWAREsometimes i wonder if the human race should even exist, with dumbasses like you being part of it
>>12468460Lmao Mister shills trying to backpedal
>>12468462A lot of aspies use this site
>>12468465Indeed! They're always claiming "muh accuracy", yet they deny it right away once there's a problem!!!
>>12468437>which you can test on Sonic Advance 2Just did with the mGBA RA core, and the Mister core's missing percussion effect is there just like on real hardware (I downloaded the Music Comparison.zip to compare)
>>12468494Just tested it and it's missing so you're full of shit or mistakenly used the wrong core
>>12468507Ok give me a few minutes to make a recording so you can look like an idiot
>>12468404
>>12468507https://files.catbox.moe/i4zmdz.mp4
>>12468436>102% accurateNice try shill. Had you said 100%, I might have believed you.
>>12468437>muhh test say is not accurate see mister is better.>is the only way to play famicom mini or games that needed special hardware.>most "accurate" emulators are made using that source modifying it to pass tests but can't run same games not even fpga derived.>only known mgba issue is rtc due to some retards saying it wasn't used on gba.
>>12468395that can't be anon, FPGAs replicate the original hardware at the subatomic level!
>>12468429This comment killed op
You can recreate the MiSTer experience on your PC by going to Zophar's Domain and downloading some emulators made in 1996.
>look at these developers discussing bugs in the softwarehonestly what the fuck is wrong you?
>>12468403No I can't, mGBA has the same audio issues. PSG is completely fucked, mesen (IIRC) is a little better but still wrong. You have zero knowledge on the topic.
>>12469149NTA but to be fair, even playing GBA on a DS or 3DS has PSG issues
>>12468395>Entire sound channels just missing, tons of games affectedThen you should be able to easily name a couple of GBA games one can try right on the title screen to hear the obvious difference, right?>possibly NES, N64, and GB as well>One core that is known to need a rewrite is effected so therefore every other core MUST be effected, including the NES core that is currently the most accurate NES emulation in existence that no software emulator comes close toNice bullshit there, might as well claim that a bug you found in ZSNES means every software emulator is effected>The difference is night and dayLike I said, then you should be able to post several examples, right? No, I don't mean that single example of Act 2 in a single Sonic game, you said entire channels are missing from tons of games and it should be "night and day" so name a couple of GBA games where you can hear this in the title screen.
>>12468395>GBA audio is trashOnce again FPGA is more accurate than original hardware. Mister sisters...we just keep winning....
>>12468449Retard.
>>12469382DESU the single speaker on the handheld was crap.
>>12469441Meanwhile the Mister does not have a shitty speaker. Pic of a de10 nano as proof. Yet another way Mister is better.
>>12469327Pokemon Firered/Leafgreen are affected numerous times throughout a run as well.It probably affects majority of games, just that most people don't remember the exact soundtrack of a game they played 20 years ago to notice a channel is missing
>>12469642An entire channel missing is a pretty damn big deal and easy to notice unless it only played a millisecond of audio throughout the entire track. You are arguing how the sound is laughably broken and "probably effects the majority of games" yet seem to struggle to list specific examples.
>>12469453>shilling the MiSTer this hardLet me guess, sales are slow on MiSTerAddOns?
>>12469694Just look at the comparisons posted retard, I'm sure you can easily find more, it's just tedious to manually test and compare vs original hardware or accurate software emu
>>12469727>sales are slow on MiSTerAddOns?I wish. He's always sold out.
>>12469747>Is still unable to list specific examplesThere was only a single example posted in the github links, and it had no missing channels. No need to sperg out just because your bluff was called. Surely it would be super easy for you to list specific examples if the issue is so noticeable and happens across the majority of the GBA library right?>it's just tedious to manually test and compare vs original hardware or accurate software emuThen how do you know it "probably affects majority of games" if you aren't even testing any and can't give examples? And before you go "B-b-but the github" the majority of bugs posted on the githubs for mister cores are examples of bugs that also happen on real hardware that people just assumed was a bug in the core. The second issue you posted was even closed. The PSX github is full of examples of bugs are actually in the game and happen on real hardware too.
>>12469782It's also in Pokemon Firered/Leafgreen and probably many more. Missing channels or whatever you want to call it, entire instruments are not present in songs.Read the fucking github thread, the way MiSTer GBA does sound is inherently flawed and cuts out a ton of sound from the upper range
>>12469869Where in Firered/Lefgreen? Got a save or something from where it happens? I am not playing through that entire game on two systems just because you can't narrow it down. I did read the thread, that's how I know all you are doing is regurgitating threads without even understanding them, because all your examples have been misunderstandings from them.You keep going off about how it must effect so many games, but then get defensive when I ask which ones so I can see for myself.
Is there a point to the whole Github issues thing or is this just another schizo meltdown?>X has Github issues so it's objectively worse than Y which has many more Github issues
>>12469876Read the github thread you fucking retard
>>12469941Coder anon here, unaffiliated with either Mister or mGBA, so I have no dog in this fight but I do know my ass from a hole in the ground. At a cursory look over this, it seems to me like a Dunning-Kruger spergout by a guy who's decided Mister is bad for whatever personal reasons and so he's vaguely waving at github issues he doesn't understand to try to "prove" it
Mister sisters... we got too cocky.
>>12468462>humans bad because some people play with electronic childrens' toys differently than i do!!!grow up, touch grass, have sex
>>12470141>have money to buy real thing>instead spent money on imitation of same thing that costs the same but works worse on the promise that *someday* it will be the same as real thing>"UOOOHHH YOU DONT HAVE A REAL LIFE" says the dumbass 4chan poster on fucking /vr/go drink bleach you worthless maggot
>>12470163i play all my games on original hardware with flash carts etc, you're just an ass-blasted loser who wastes his already lonely and pathetic life seething and malding over a big nothingenjoy :0)
>>12470141>humans bad because they're stupidYes.
>>12470105SNES stable was updated today!
>>12469753Damnit I want a reflex adapt NOW
>>12470434I wish you luck. Every time I use MiSTer it's with one of his things, either the SNAX, Reflex Adapt or his SNES USB board controller.
>>12470434Unless you are trying to play Jaguar, you can just get a SNAC adapter, they are cheap and sold everywhere.
>>12468395>NESthe nes core is as accurate as og hardware according to every single test available
>>12468395They don't care about accuracy because "it's disgusting and really gross": https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/GBA_MiSTer/issues/157#issuecomment-3017502877
>>12470717Why would you lie like that when we can just click the link and see that he's actually calling the linked test rom disgusting because it contains porn?
>>12470729It's also some random person, not the admin of the repository or the creator of the core. The opinion of a random person does not constitute the consensus of the community. The issue is even left open. The guy you're replying to is just a complete fucking retard.
>>12470486Yeah but I don't want to have to buy controllers for every console. I just want to use an oem snes pad for everything except gen 5 consoles.
>>12470105What does any of this mean for those of us who are employed?
>>12471054Nothing. Were fine because we use emulators.
>>12470176Projecting.
How's MS-DOS on this? 486 , right? Do you have any choice in sound card emulation?
>>12471173>How's MS-DOS on this?Pretty good>486 , right?Yes, but with no FPU. You can basically overclock the 486 up to 90MHz and have up to 256MB of RAM though.>Do you have any choice in sound card emulation?You can't choose a specific card like in 86Box if that's what you mean, you can change it's volume/mixing settings and FM mode, as well as use a MT-32Pi for Midi if you want.
>>12471264That seems neat. You have to do everything manual like a real computer? Setting your hdd partition, install ms-dos, edit config.sys, autoexec.bat, CD-Rom drivers, etc...
>>12471286Yes, though there are pre-made images you can get for it if you don't want to setup everything from scratch, as well as that 0MHz collection.
>>12471292Thanks for the info. Yeah, this thing sound very appealing to me. I play on original hardware and software emulation but having all that in that little box sounds good. I'll start saving up to get one in a few months.
