Didn't see one in the catalog.

Try as I might, I cannot get PCFX games to start on my SuperStation. I've tried renaming bin/cue files, tried CHD's, tried Return to Zork (the one game the author claims to be working), tried a different core fromhttps://github.com/MiSTer-devel/PC-FX_MiSTer , try as I might I cannot progress beyond this screen besides going to the CD or memory card menu.

None of the documentation for the cores makes it obvious that this is just the current state of the core and that it can't boot games. I've tried looking it up and all I found were unresolved Reddit threads from other people reporting the same problem. So what the Hell's going on here? Am I missing or doing something wrong? I have a memory card mounted and I've mapped the buttons but when pressing 1 over the middle icon (which I'm guessing is for starting games), nothing happens besides the screen flickering briefly when using the normal Core from https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/PCFX_MiSTer

idk about pcfx but i tried pc88 and pc98 for the first time yesterday. both of the games i wanted to play had multiple formats in the zips i downloaded.

putting hfe files in the root of the games/pc88 folder worked. putting d88 files in a subfolder inside games/pc98 didnt work.
>>
>>12929671
I tried that as well, putting the bin and cue files in the root PCFX directory but I get the same results.
>>
>>12929647
I gleaned from the github that the core is in a broken early development stage by the fact it says its in "Phase 1: Make it work." as in it doesnt work yet

https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?t=1149

"The core isn't supported yet by the official MiSTer main binary. You need the one from the MiSTer-PCFX.zip in order to use the core. And probably change it back to the official main MiSTer after using the core."

this is just another vibe coded slop core shat out by that tranny kitrinx, who normally did good work, but has become a slop slinger of late

When are they going to fix the saving so you don't have to open the OSD before you switch off?
>>
>>12929903
thats not broken. that was a choice to reduce sdcard writes.
>>
>>12930175
Flash carts hold saves on ram before restart, it should not be a problem to fix
You know, I don't see a lot of people talking about this design flaw
>>
>>12930195
Not all of them.
Some carts save in SRAM and need a whole reboot to write to storage.
>>
>>12930229
Then do that
>>
>>12930239
I'd rather just open up the OSD than reboot
>>
>>12930251
You wouldn't need to reboot, it would hold on to data until next time you start
>>
>>12929647
>want to buy one
>every popular model is sold out
>even if they weren't, shipping and taxes would be as expensive as the model itself

So is the clone on Aliexpress good enough? Only $200 right now.

>>12929647
There usually isn't general threads for specific emulator boxes. Try the emulation general.

Have any cool arcade games been added lately? The only one I know of is Kiki Kaikai. Great game.
