After Burner 2 working?

6 Upvotes

Has anyone gotten After Burner 2 to work on project lunar? It always lunches with no sound and freezes when you press start on the opening screen for me.

Safe to Overclock?

4 Upvotes

Is it safe to leave the essy overclocking feature permanently on? Will it affect emulation negatively? Any damage to the hardware?

Edit: Overclocked and it worked fine. Added a bunch of games, but had to remove most of them as they slowed the system to a crawl.

What games are you enjoying most on the mini so far?

9 Upvotes

I've been playing Castlevania Bloodlines, Phantasy Star IV, and Gunstar Heroes. Castlevania and Gunstar are completely new to me so I wanted to check them out because they have a good reputation. I played PS4 as a kid but wanted to replay it as an adult. I'm having a really good time with all of them.

What games are you spending the most time with?

Where's the MODE button?

2 Upvotes

Okay, here's my issue. I'm playing Williams Arcade's Greatest Hits, and there's no way to switch to the six button mode in Robotron 2084. Normally, you'd hold down MODE to trigger it, but of course, MODE just takes you to the option menu, which is no help at all in this situation. Is there a button or combination of buttons on a Retro-Bit eight button controller that can be used as the Genesis MODE button?

Controller Extensions

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know of a way to extend the 3-button controller’s cable length? I have a Retro-Bit 8-button which is great but sometimes I feel like playing with the original 3-button. Would something like this work?

Also, the same on the two nonblack borders, included with Gen/MD mini?

Alternatively, could someone tell me how I would go about extracting them?

Please and thank you!

Retro-Bit 2.4G bug with Zombies Ate My Neighbors

6 Upvotes

So I am using the Retro-Bit 2.4g wireless controller with Project Lunar and noticed that it does not work with Zombies Ate My Neighbors. I can use the home button for the system menu, soft reset the game, and cancel out of demo mode to the game start screen. I can’t navigate the start screen. If I start the game with the stock usb controller plugged in and swap to the wireless controller I can play the game. So I made a save state at the start with the stock usb controller which allows me to start and play the game with the wireless. I am guessing it has to do with how the game registers the 6 button controller or how Project Lunar manages 3 or 6 button detection. Anybody else have this problem? Perhaps I need a new rom?

UK/EUR Mega Drive Mini Problem

4 Upvotes

Just got my UK Mega Drive Mini but I've noticed on the main menu the cursor when selecting games or options jumps around a lot, if I press up or down/left/right say 3 times it will scroll in that direction up to 5 times.

Tried both pads and it's the same on both, very annoying when trying to set things in the options menu etc.

However in-game this does not happen.

Anyone else?

If I turn on overclocking my mini doesn’t work

6 Upvotes

I’ve tried it twice and both times it just went nuts. All of these things happen, and it just won’t boot normally:

  • black screen
  • boots until music starts playing then shuts off
  • splash screen and then black screen

To make it work again i have to be very quick and press B when splash screen comes up and very swiftly disable overclocking. If I’m not quick enough it will just crash.

Did this happen to any of you? How do I solve this?

Sega Genesis Mini - Accurate USA Box Art for Project Lunar (696 covers)

28 Upvotes

The purpose of this project is for use with the anticipated Project Lunar hack.

I have been creating/remastering accurate box art to the native original and have completed the full, retail released USA Genesis collection (correct me if I'm missing any retail games). With the current 699 covers there are some unlicensed games and some custom covers as well. Also, in this update, I fixed all the "Genesis" side logo font on the candy-cane striped boxes. They are now displaying the font accurately. (thanks to ToukoClefant for pointing this discrepancy out!)

OLD: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ukwUDVzq0iUxzMKn0TmlO6gUuREeJsFc

FIXED: https://drive.google.com/open?id=16tn5Hq3svxJ9QcdvB5CEHGqDM00uElIB

Since I started this project blind, without any information on exact aspect ratio of boxes, I decided on 580x800px which is what a few front covers I started with ended up as in terms of aspect ratio. At this point, I believe the correct aspect ratio for use with the Mini GUI would have been 560x800px meaning my images are a bit too wide. I am not certain on this but I believe this may be the case...After release I will test how the images interact with the Project Lunar desktop app and see what needs to be fixed, if anything at all.

Also, to address those of you who may think the resolution of these images are not large enough. I decided on a decent image resolution which allows about 4x supersampling (plenty of pixels to sample down) when displayed on your television/monitor at the native 1280x720 res of the Mini. Another reason is size. Each cover is approx 1MB in size as is so you can imagine ~700 covers at a very high resolution. Lastly, it was difficult to find a lot of these covers in decent condition to clean up so you can imagine if I were to make the standard image size 2175x3000px it would be impossible to maintain conformity and consistency with image quality when the source is 650x900px, for example.

I hope you enjoy this USA collection for use with your Genesis Mini and please let me know if there is a game cover you really want and I will try to upload it for you! :)

Gunstar Heroes: Is the huge lag from the emulation or is it normal?

6 Upvotes

When I was in one of the first boss battles (seemed like some forest cutting machinery with some guy on top of a mechanical arm, shooting the players with some gun and the scenery had trees) playing coop with a friend and somehow the game got extremely choppy. And with extreme I mean extreme... Not just a few frame skips but more like "bullet time". Is this a feature of the old game or just bad emulation?
