|
Hello, R2 --> D Pad Up + I For reference I am using all the parts spec'd in the BOM in the cable making section, a NODEMCU ESP32 and 8bitdo SN30pro+ controllers. I attached gerbers and PDFs of the schematics and board files Any help would be greatly appreciated |

Can you try with FW 0.16 https://github.com/darthcloud/BlueRetro/releases/tag/v0.16 This is original version that added PCE support and probably the last one I tested PCE with. I'll setup my PCE and try too. |

Can you list a few games? Best if they are CD-ROM, as I don't have a PCE flash card. |

I tried Golden Axe and Rayxbander with both FW 0.16 and 1.22, the second game is the best example as you can see the ship move left and pause or shoot and move forward etc. I also attached a video of a pad test rom using FW 0.16 that I found that shows the issues. PXL_20220213_232817242.TS.1.mp4 |

Try this build: This only improve 2/3 btns ctrl mode, tested with Rayxbander III and Bomberman 94, do not see pause or random press. I removed the /OE line handling to speed things up, some game might not like this? Edit: Problem was schematic had /OE and SEL line inverted (now corrected) |

Awesome thanks for updating it! I tested the new wiring with every version of FW that I had (.016,1.00,1.2.2 and 1.2.2pcetest) and all perform as intended with no issues. Also thanks for looking into the button layout for the controller. I looked into the 6 button controller game list and it is VERY short (see Below) in the large list of PCE/TG16 games. It would be greatly appreciated if the buttons could be remapped. Would it be possible to create a profile with II and I on the A/B Buttons and a second for the 6 button controller? Advanced VG |

Ok good to know, I think altered my cable timing somehow, I get random press without pce-test FW. What pull-up resistor are you using? 4K7 or something lower? |

I was getting random presses when SEL and OE were swapped. Once I fixed that the random presses stopped along with the double presses. I am using 47K resistors as you spec'd in the diagram. I spent an hour this morning testing (playing games hahaha). I played Devils Crush, Bonk III, Raden, Golden Axe and Rayxbander with no issues at all. |
