Same way as in HuGoX.  What I did was define two new A and B buttons as Emu Button 28 and Emu Button 29.  Then set Emu 28 and Emu 29 to turbo.  Then set them to XBox buttons Y and B.  I also had to unmap the Option 1 and Option 2 buttons which were set to Xbox Y and B by default... I wasn't sure if the option buttons did anything in this emulator or not.  If they do, I'll map them to something else later.

That worked - thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Still, it's not quite the same as the original console. It's really not a big deal at all, but the actual first-party controllers had three turbo-fire settings that you could switch between with a little selector, so it seems odd not to have any buttons mapped to turbo by default. It'd be cool to have the option to do the selector thing easily in-game but I understand if XPort doesn't feel like doing it or doesn't feel it's necessary.

Man, this is something fantastic. You lead us all on by saying WinUAEX is next, then turn around and pull these 3 out of nowhere...??!!!

You just have to love XBS news when you read a heading:

Xport has just released 3 !!! new emulators....


lol. Wicked, thanks heaps.

Wow, this triple-emulator release sure was one nice surprise. Thank you so much xport! Finally, I can play the CD games with all their sound intact. (Oh yeah, nice skin by the way!)

When I play Iso pce-cd  games skip at certain parts, happen to anyone else? no GFX filters by the way.

1. How do you use turbo on Mednafen-PCE? I looked in the config and tried everything and couldn't figure it out. Am I just missing something really stupid? Normally I don't use turbo in emulators anyway but since it was part of the standard controller for the TG16, it makes games like Bonk 1 hard to play without it.

2. Is there any way you could add a volume control to the background music, at least in MednafenX-NES? I like the background music but it's considerably louder than the volume in the emulator itself. It's no biggie if you can't - I can always turn it off, after all - but I figure it couldn't hurt to ask.

1. A much easier and more customizable way to do this is to set the "Autofire" setting for the buttons on the Controller configuration.  Start the game, open up the options menu, select Configure Controllers, Controller 1, Autofire Options, then select the autofire level you want.  0 means turned off, 1 is the fastest autofire, 2 is slightly slower, etc.  Adjust until you're happy with it.

2. From most places in the emulator you can press the LTHUMB stick to bring up the Music Control Menu.  From there you can move the RTHUMB stick left/right to adjust the background music volume.  During gameplay, moving the RTHUMB button up/down will adjust the background/sfx volume.  Moving the RTHUMB button left/right will adjust the CD music volume.  If you leave the emulator theme music playing while playing the games, then RTHUMB left/right will also adjust that.

Thanks XPort, much appreciated. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

For number 1. the problem is that I need to have buttons I and II with autofire on, and with autofire off to be able to play stuff like Bonk correctly. I can use the main four buttons for this, but it's not quite like the original, where you could switch the autofire settings quickly while playing and still use the same two buttons. And it seems a little odd to have to reconfigure the default controller to play a few games properly, but again, no big deal.

For number 2, thank you, that worked. Didn't even know about that menu. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Is there a way to control the sound effects volume and the emulator volume in-game as well? Now that the background music is turned down, the menu sound effects are too loud, because they're at the same volume level. It's something I can live with if there's no setting, though. I looked around a bunch through the menus but couldn't find anything.

[lenocinor]

One more thing: I changed the background music volume in MednafenX-NES, but the volume doesn't seem to save, so when I quit and load it up again later, the music is right back to where it was before. Is there any way to save the setting permanently?

I've some problem with CD-ROM.
I cannot get any CD-ROM to run and not even go into system card menu.
My guess is I put systemcard on wrong place or wrong name
Anyone can help? (Both CD I tried run well on PC and my xbox has samsung drive that read every cd i tried)

Every rom I try to load just hangs at the loading screen. These same roms worked fine in Hugo, tried downloading a few new ones but they did the same thing. Also tried deleting the old hugo saves and clearing the cache, still didn't work. Anyone know what's going on?

You can try force U.S mode? or you can check to see if you have the correct rom dumps( use goodtools). Thats weird if they worked in Hugo for you? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/uhh.gif)  Mine work fine even Jackie Chan is playable now.

The only issue I'm having is my ISO games. They run smooth for the most part but every 5 seconds or so during gameplay the game stutters  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/uhh.gif).

You may have bit-swapped roms. Check out this post on the Mednafen forums for more details.

I had the same problem.  I posted about it last night. I was running in 1080i. It locked up when I tried to load a rom. I changed the resolution to 720p and it worked fine. don't know why it wont run in 1080i. Maybe someone with a hdtv can try and see if they get the same results.

THANK YOU Xport!!!!

Now I can finally play "it came from the desert" (own the original disc) without it crashing right after the title screen.

Keep up the great work
All we need now is a sega 32x cd emulator

[foxxfella]

I guess using point filtering helps the stuttering problem on some CD games. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
