MiSTer

The folks mentioning €80 customs/duty from Fedex, was that on top of the order direct from Terasic for the DE10 Nano?

Yep, so direct from terasic

$215usd for de10 nano

$66usd for 3 days shipping (only option)

€80.96 fedex (duties, taxes and fees)

so an expensive day out, I’m not sure how much you’d save holding out for mouser, I didn’t think it was worth waiting because I wanted it now, despite having no way to use it

Mouser ships the de10 for free, and covers all import duty/customs themselves. Currently listed as 225 ex vat, so even with vat it should work out cheaper...availability notwithstanding.

Would it be possible to connect a USB wifi dongle to a DE10 Nano board and update the software on it and such without actually removing it/it's SD card from the arcade machine?

Removing the SD card is a fairly simple process and all, but being able to basically 'update an arcade machine' over wifi sounds incredibly handy.

Yup, you can updates files over SSH/SCP - a windows/mac easy way Cyberduck.io

That would really only to pop over new games for console/computer cores (or non-public cores), arcade supported systems have their packs auto updated when you run the 'update_all' script and the Mister is connected to your wifi.

Just ensure you have a compatible USB wifi dongle or ethernet wire the DE10

Got my July email pushback there

Yep, 29th

Well that didn’t take long at all

Just in time for my Nano to arrive next week!

MiSTer on adverts too with no pics

On another note is anyone else using Antonio’s JAMMA adapter, it it up last night but only recognises the joystick in the menus and doesn’t recognise the buttons at all, gonna try another cab later and see if it’s something to do with the wiring in the candy cab which is not be surprised because it’s wired for 5button JAMMA

ive also to figure out shortcuts for adding coins, exiting the game, etc🧐

I did some quick maths for the 2nd MiSTer (still awaiting the DE10) - I think that person is prob 80~90e over the actual cost of the MiSTer HW costs

*edited original post

Maybe some Mister experts might chime in

I'm slowly getting my Mister/JAMMA adapter working which is the affordable one from the Spanish guy Antonio.

One thing I can't for the life of me figure out, shift/combo keys, for example, on my pi setup I usually press p1 start + p1 button1 to insert a coin or hold in p1 start for a number of seconds (5) to exit a game. Anyone know how to do this? Is it even possible? I know you can define the inputs on each game and use the spare buttons but it’s so confusing, is there no way to say player 1 start and player 1 button one is insert coin.

I'm guessing this would need to be a feature of the hardware and there isn't any info on Antonios page, can anyone with a mistercade confirm if it has shortcuts like this to exit game, add coin, pause, etc, I dont see it mentioned in the mistercade documentation, or is the alt + f12 menu the only way to do anything once you’ve launched a game?

Last Q, I’ve tried to rotate some vertical games so I can play on my horizontal monitor but any games I’ve tried refuse to rotate. Example Burgertime, just doesn't respond

I like the Mister but it just doesn't seem cab friendly, or I'm doing something wrong or its my setup, I do also miss the high score saves of my pi setup but I know the individual games are being worked on so they'll come with time.

MisterNotSoFuckingEasyAfterall

nothing I play seems to have a free play dip setting.

Down and start worked for me initially to get to the main OSD and I’d to push across to the cores or up and hard reset, but now refuses to work. Not sure how I broke it 😭

It’s weird, the buttons in each Arcade core seem to decide themselves. no matter what I do, just randomly the unused buttons in the game will be start and coin, I don’t know if it’s normal but sometimes it’ll be button 1=start, button 2=coin, sometimes it’ll be button 3=start and button 4=coin. Even on cores I’ve never loaded up before just seems to be random

I’ve watched videos and read docs but nothing seems to make sense, I don’t know if it’s due to the JAMMA interface or wha…

So, the 29th has happened - I didn't see any updates yet from Mouser. Anyone else?

Same, not a peep since the most recent pushback

Vat & customs sounds more appealing now🤣

Seems like a bit of a oversight - you would expect there to be one for a USB wifi dongle for updates rather than needing wired ethernet or pulling the SDCard.

Cheers, I think I'm going to pickup an IrkenLabs when his online store open again, I can see past the USB, I'll just stick a spare powerline ethernet adapter inside the cab, no one will be any the wiser but my pet peeve is keyboards hanging from cabinets, I can't see past that one 🤐

Any update on anyone's Mouser DE10 order? We're almost two weeks passed the 29th now and no update from them at all.

Just fired off an email to see what's up.

It's driving me mental now as I've invested quite a bit in prepping my SNK cabinet for fighting games and have been waiting for what feels like an eternity.

Had that custom SNK 12 button control panel made up back in early January, paid import tax, got the kick harness all wired up so it's 100% just waiting for something to connect it to.

Bought the MiSTercade in February.

Got bored waiting so set up a micro SD with a load of cores ready to go.

I actually still haven't bought the additional RAM for it but wanted to wait until I had it in my hands before dropping more money down the pit!

I hope Mouser don't pull the same thing on you that they did on me. I have an order in for some electrical components and stuff(about €2k worth). Ordered in November 2021 with an expected delivery of April 2022. I expected it to run to June or July, which was fine as I didn't need to have everything ready until November this year. But now they've pushed it out to February 2024 :0(
