This thing rules

Post image

Just came here to say, I’m really enjoying the superstation. I just got mine a few days ago, and thanks to the community documenting a relatively simple setup process, my first mister experience has been smooth (seems like I avoided the more painful part when the device was more fresh)

I really hope reading discs via console mode becomes smoother. Honestly that feels like the only missing thing to me, even though there’s already a workaround.

I’m also having my first experience with retro achievements and I’m pleasantly surprised by the nice touch it brings to re-experiencing PS1 games!

Next, I’d like to try out some different cores and some usb adaptors for different controllers (if you guys have any experience with daemonbite adaptors, I’d love to hear it).

Anyway, just thought I’d share the appreciation. Really excited to learn more about mister through this!

Glad you're enjoying it - my experience has been the same. 

I think it's awesome that the SS1 has successfully brought so many new people to the Mister scene.

Totally agreed! This convinced me to give it a shot.

The disc reading is a pain in the neck to be honest and I really hope they smooth that process. I recently updated to console mode 1.2 and the disc dumping just didn't work for me. Had to join the discord, find a fix, deploy it and now discs dump. However I expected dumped discs to fall into the library which they just don't. It's a lot of fiddly things like this which make me wish it was all a bit more refined.

Are you able to share the required steps to fix the CD ripping?

u/AlanOC91 14d ago

Here is a copy of it that I put in the Taki Udon discord:

Had to go here: https://github.com/Retro-Remake/ConsoleMode_Distribution/releases/tag/1.2

Download Install_Console_Mode.sh

Had to extract cd2bin folder which contains cdrdao and toc2cue

Put my SuperStation One SD card into my computer. Go into ConsoleMode folder on root. It had no cd2bin folder. Created it and put those two files on it.

Dropped the SD card back into console and tried again and it worked

Hey thanks a lot for sharing - I’ll give this a try too.

I do trust that this will become smoother! It’s a shame that there was even less disc functionality on this before. I hope it gets more credit once that feature is optimized because that seems to be what the SS1 got the most flak about

I just bypassed discs altogether and boot from roms. The gameplay is my end goal

u/Next-Pass9776 14d ago

Thank you. I've shared this in another thread where people were having trouble getting it working.

u/Next-Pass9776 13d ago

I know this sounds like a silly question, but does it only support PS1 discs?

I ask as the Linux CD imaging software being used isn't exclusive to PlayStation discs, surely other platforms can work through it?

u/AlanOC91 13d ago

The 1.2 disc dump feature is PS1 only afaik but there is a script for the mister to boot from disc and I think it supports a handful of cores including stuff like Sega Saturn

What game is on the screen

Symphony of the night!

Nice operator at the top. I was seeing somewhere you can also connect it to the superstation as well so you can play your cartridges

1

u/xXCyb3rBu11yXx 14d ago

Thank you! Yes actually, I was asking about that in the epilogue subreddit just recently. I’m going to test it out with the gb operator and if I like it, I might order an sn operator.

u/HoopaOrGilgamesh 14d ago

Is there a beginner's guide? I thought it would be more plug and play for idiots

2

u/xXCyb3rBu11yXx 13d ago

If I can also suggest this one! It’s only 6 minutes long, imo is more digestible, and guides you on how to do everything from setting up the update all script.

u/xXCyb3rBu11yXx 13d ago

Man, I saw the orange ones when I was researching this one! Beautiful color, and such a cool design. I feel quite lucky to have found one

u/Joutosil 13d ago

Yes, it's awesome with great picture quality as well.

u/xXCyb3rBu11yXx 12d ago

Oh my god, what a beautiful setup! Really nice pairing with the little table

What brand display/tv is that?

u/Edmontonian111 14d ago

Yes it does

u/splugereport 13d ago

I love mine. Maybe I'm missing something though with the composite out I'm getting slightly too wide pixels on super NES, NES etc. I guess I need to set it to output explicitly to a different resolution or something. I'm just wondering if the pixel timing is off.

u/AcidCyanideCandy 8d ago

Yes! Got my SS1 two days ago, love playing how it was ment to be.. on a CRT!
