Pixelboy Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 You can have two codes at same time, for example, one for keyboard and another for joystick, like this: left_button_1 key32 joy0_0 joy-surprised? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+nanochess Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 Oh, and the button re-mapping works great! Thank you! Can I ask what was your choice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 P.S: As always, the manual has a small text saying how to show your appreciation I did back in July hopefully I'm still good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPR Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Can I ask what was your choice? I kept the left fire on Space and then the right fire on the right Command button, but might change that later to see how it works. Everything else was mapped ok for me, just the M above the space was a bit awkward, that's all. (but to be honest, I'd started getting used to it!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayXambeR Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I'll try the new version with joy mapping this day. Thanks Oscar! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byte Knight Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Now controllers mappings in keyboard can be changed. CoolCV v0.5.4 will create a file Documents/coolcv_mapping.txt that can be edited. Thank you! The Ultimate PC Interface works great with your emulator now. I really like that Mac users are getting the updates first too! If you ever decide to update the Linux version to support controller mapping, the Ultimate Colecovision Flashback will be possible. Just curious - why isn't there a key for reset? I find myself having to quit out of the program frequently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Are there going to be any more updates to the Windows version of this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klasko54 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I agree the re mapping mac is AWSOME! The greatest thing is no choppy volume or video on anything. At least what I tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssj Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 This is looking very promising, great work nanochess. Now if you could add a setting to add some scanlines it would be just about perfect And I second the request to also don't stop updating the windows version.

I'm so glad to know the Ultimate PC Interface works Thanks for the reset suggestion Are there going to be any more updates to the Windows version of this? Yes, in time. It's because I've to port some things to Windows and also because Mac users have been very $upportive. I agree the re mapping mac is AWSOME! The greatest thing is no choppy volume or video on anything. At least what I tried. Cool! This is looking very promising, great work nanochess.

Scanlines would be interesting, it's one of the things in my TODO list. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenegg Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 (edited) I just got a new Macbook Pro, as my last one bit the dust with the GPU failing for the third time. I ended up setting up the new system from scratch, rather than using my backup. I just grabbed the 0.5.4 release and am unable to play any retail games. Homebrews play fine, but retail games just give a black screen. I have coleco.rom in the same directory, but I'm not even sure that's needed any more based on the readme file. I had this working on my old system, so I'm at a loss as to what's happening here. Any ideas why retail games won't boot? EDIT: Got it working. The issue was that I was using ROMs from the No-Intro set. Those apparently don't work in this emulator.

xeynx Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Nanochess, quick question for you regarding the emulator. I know nolageek asked this already but I just wanted to follow up. I have your emulator added to a Retropie installation on a RPi 2B and running through emulationstation. The emulator itself runs without issue but I cannot quit out of it once started without going into ssh and doing a sudo kill <coolcv_pi pid>. Your documentation does say either Ctrl+Esc or Alt+F4 will quit but neither seem to be working. Is there another way I can get this to work?

goldenegg Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Please send me one of the non-working files via PM. Thanks No need. I was about to send you the ROMs, when I noticed a problem on my NAS. After fixing things, the ROMs work. I didn't realize that something had happened to cause the ROMs to get extracted as 0 bytes. Re-extracting fixed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xeynx Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Please send me one of the non-working files via PM. Thanks I'm surprised. Ctrl+Esc should work. I tested it. The thing is I'm not running it from the command line in an terminal session I'm going through emulationstation which might behave differently. I'll keep poking around and see what I can find but thanks anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kken Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Oh! I see. Unfortunately I don't have currently a Raspberry available for compiling the new version Hi nanochess, thanks for putting in the effort for a raspberry pi version! xeynx brought me into the fold on this effort as I would love to see a viable Colecovision emu with our Retropie machines. With Retropie/Emulator Station, the default keys to exit from a ROM are enter (start button) and right shift (select button) pushed together. The Retroarch configuration tool will set up all controllers to map the enter to start and rshift to select. Is there a way to compile the rpi version of coolcv to have exit be those two buttons instead of cntl + esc? Thanks again for your effort on this! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it matter which version of a rpi it is to compile? I am currently using a rpi 1 B but am going to upgrade to a rpi 2 Real. Soon. Now. I could send you this one once I do that...

phattyboombatty Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Just got my fresh install of OS X El Capitan up and running. Unfortunately, CoolCV 0.5.4 and prior releases are crashing. I just want to say thank you Nanochess for all of your dedication to this great app! I realize it's in alpha, but you've provided tremendous support so far. EDIT: Just realized I hadn't yet reinstalled SDL... Did that, and it works perfectly. Carry on.

Ok, here's the plan - I'll donate $20 to nanochess's Raspberry Pi fund and someone else do the same. I'd love to see a Linux version with the keyboard / joystick mapping file. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see a Linux version with the keyboard / joystick mapping file. If nonochess PM's me his address, I will just ship him a PI that will be plug and play. There is no need for anyone to donate to the PI. Just donate to him for the emulator. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
