SIG X68000 / 8bitdo retro receiver support.
Last post by aapuzzo - November 25, 2025, 10:10:39 AM
I am trying to get the 8bitdo retro receiver for Genesis working.  This is the bluetooth version.  Right now I get some input only in street fighter using my 6 button adapter in the capcom stick modes but the inputs are off.  I read the 2.4 ghz controller works so I assumed the bluetooth receiver would as well.  I just ordered the 2.4ghz controller to test but you would think they would both have the same pinouts.  I don't mind making another adapter if it would make it so we could use any bluetooth controller.  Has anybody had any luck?

I have been using an MT-100 without any issues with is basically a later revision MT-32 with extra features.  I have to ask but you are using it with a game that has MT-32 support in the MT-32 mode?  Also you are you mixing the audio with the standard headphone FM output?  Midi doesn't always give you all sounds in games.  You need to use a mixing board to combine both audio outputs.  Sorry if this sounds like basic information but I have to ask.  My next move would be to try it in well known dos games.

Small update, unfortunately I cannot get the device coupled with that generic SCSI driver to work with Policenauts. There is strange audio and graphic glitching that I don't see when using an original file-slot CD-ROM drive.

Figured I'd share for those who may encounter this in the future.

Any luck with solving this issue? I'm finding the exact same problem using my XVI (10 or 16mhz) and my etarikashikoshi. No issues with the SC-55, but some instruments are missing with the mt32.

Hello!

I have been very interested in obtaining a Sega Teradrive for a while now, but most auction sites in Japan have never listed it. I am posting here out of curiosity to see if anyone has a Teradrive and would be interested in selling one to me.

I am open to any prices, as long as they aren't absurdly expensive. I have done my research on this, so I know what to expect in terms of the price.

Interesting.  I just got the cyberstick in the mail so I can test it out.  So far the games I tried it with were on joystick 1.

SIG FM-Towns / Re: Standard FMT HDD image V1
Last post by alessiman - November 22, 2025, 02:43:14 PM
Dear brainstrust.  I am stuck with installing this image and need some guidance

Setup: I have a ZuluSCSI so installed it into the bay where my dead SCSI drive was mounted.  The image has been renamed HD30_512.HDA, so SCSI ID 3 which i believe was the original drive number for the old SCSI drive



Loading the FM-Towns Partition Software i can select drive 3 and it populates with the drive partitions from the HDD image



However, i cannot save this configuration at all.  Selecting "execute" just takes me into an endless loop

So now wondering what am I missing here?  The SCSI device looks to be working, as too if the HDD image. But i can't work out how to get past this point :(

FYI, Q: is where the CD-ROM is mapped too.  its just not visible on the 2nd photo

Got a couple of doujin games in today that don't seem to be dumped, so I dumped them and archived them for people. Let me know if they work out for y'all.
