The Amiga whdload pack for Retropie
Hi.
[ Show youtube player ] [ Show youtube player ] This is video by HungryHorace which explains you can launch amiga games from emulation station on raspberry pie's. The download page below may have issues though. Boxart snaps and logos download link fail? Anyone else experience this? http://www.ultimateamiga.co.uk/Hoste...downloads.html Last edited by ransom1122; 28 April 2017 at 06:05. |

Finally got all this working on my Pi3.
Little Niggly things... - How can I edit the gfx ratio to 4/3 instead of that stretched look as default for all games. I noticed int he game configs this line gfx_correct_aspect=False. Can you change all config to show True? - Also Frame Skip is turned on as default. Could you please remove it by default? If not How can I do this myself. If i change it in the emulator when I restart a game its back to stretched mode? - Lastly Turrican 2 & Turrican 2 CDTV BOth crash back to the emulation station menu after 5 seconds of playing? I managed to get a working config for Turrican 2 but when i save the config & reset the game, the old non working config boots and crashes again. - Also Ultimate Body Blows CD32 Will not load? Thanks in advance Its a shame default config has jit on. Frameskip on. Stretched video etcetc Last edited by ransom1122; 27 April 2017 at 10:22. |

Hi Ransom, i was struggling with frame skip as well , i dont know why is set by default to 1 , it should be 0.
You can easy update it by setting gfx_framerate=0 in the config files. |

if you want to update it for all of the games you can edit hostconfig.uaetemp file and run UAEConfigMaker and it will update it in config for all of the games.

Yes I know how it's done. Thanks
I have noticed many more options in the emulator that are active which i dont want and and i cant find them in the uae config files. For example. Immediate blitter. Jit and so on. Is there a complete command listing on config files for amiberry? |

Ok, I'm no expert. You may require Toni's input but from what I've found when playing around with configuration files:
JIT: Ok, JIT is a bit tricky... If "cpu_type=68020" or above is set then this is the line you need in the configuration file to enable: Code:
cachesize=16384 Code:
cachesize=0 Immediate Blitter: To enable this set: Code:
immediate_blits=true Code:
immediate_blits=false |

No idea but I imagine so... most UAE ports have very similar lines in the config files
Try and see; it's the only way to be sure ...or maybe, you should actually look at a WinUAE config vs. an AmiBerry config in any text file viewer Any other options you need help with? |

These are the Config changes I have made on default Configs for all whdload retropie configs made by Horace. As you can see there are 4 different changes which for each game folder.
-------------------------------------------------- Games_WHDLoad (Configs 17-04-2017) gfx_framerate=1 gfx_framerate=0 gfx_correct_aspect=False gfx_correct_aspect=True cachesize=8192 cachesize=0 cpu_cycle_exact=False cpu_cycle_exact=True -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- Games_WHDLoad_AGA (Configs 17-04-2017) gfx_framerate=1 gfx_framerate=0 gfx_correct_aspect=False gfx_correct_aspect=True cachesize=8192 cachesize=0 cpu_cycle_exact=False cpu_cycle_exact=True -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- Games_WHDLoad_CD32 (Configs 17-04-2017) gfx_framerate=1 gfx_framerate=0 gfx_correct_aspect=False gfx_correct_aspect=True cachesize=8192 cachesize=0 cpu_cycle_exact=False cpu_cycle_exact=True -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- Games_WHDLoad_CDTV (Configs 17-04-2017) gfx_framerate=1 gfx_framerate=0 gfx_correct_aspect=False gfx_correct_aspect=True cachesize=8192 cachesize=0 cpu_cycle_exact=False cpu_cycle_exact=True -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- Games_WHDLoad_DemoVersions (Configs 17-04-2017) gfx_framerate=1 gfx_framerate=0 gfx_correct_aspect=False gfx_correct_aspect=True cachesize=8192 cachesize=0 cpu_cycle_exact=False cpu_cycle_exact=True -------------------------------------------------- Here are some screenshots showing RetroPie Amiga on a 65" TV Turrican II Now works perfect. Below is the quitbutton key info in all conigs of whdload games for amiberry.. I am still working out how I can map a button on my ps3 controller to quit out of emulation and go back to emulation station? Anyone know? ; host-specific key_for_menu=293 key_for_quit=0 button_for_menu=-1 button_for_quit=16 So far I am very happy with this setup for Amiga Couch Playing with a PS3 Controller. Every game I have thrown at it work so far, Just need to figure out that Quit back to emulationstation config. Last edited by ransom1122; 28 April 2017 at 11:55. |

Yehp! Except for that Quit key mapping ability, that is emulator gui related though, I think.

What happened to "Immediate Blitter", I thought you were going to switch this off also?
...it's vary, vary rarely needed. |

What is the meaning of `gfx_framerate=0` setting to 1 already gives full fps?
EDIT: Oh in Amiberry it is different compared to WinUAE. I see. |
