pixelcade VS ultimate_addon

Also note that all Pixelcade LED marquees at http://pixelcade.org can function as a Pinball DMD

Here's a rough guide I threw together to give a better idea. Feel free to reach out with any feedback or questions. It should be noted that over at pixelcade.org, they have released a new version of their software that can do some ticker type capabilities. It's just getting started, so not as polished, but shows great potential and may be a better solution for those not comfortable with modding.

Pixelcade - Find a Marquee that somehow reacts to sound.

Probably need a replacement. You could post a question on the pixelcade forum: https://pixelcade.org/

To build or modify the UCE, you’ll need this outdated tool that no longer builds UCE files properly

For posterity, I checked the original UCE from the COX v5 pack. It ran. So then I rebuilt it with the latest core from here using both the original AddOn Tool and the much better tool created by /u/meepowl. Both of those ran as well.

I'm pretty certain the Windows Addon tool uses a pre-built save image as there is one bundled with it and it doesn't include Cygwin ports of truncate, debugfs or mkfs which I needed to generate the save images. Our tool makes these on the fly just as the Linux script in the ultimate_addon tool does.

Hi. I'm trying to build a cross-platform tool to make building UCE images easier. The build scripts for Linux in the sauce_factory and ultimate_addon repos use mksquashfs which can be compiled for Windows but also use mkfs and debugfs to create the ext4 partition (as well as truncate and dd for various things but I can probably find a way round these).

I successfully built a UCE based on FBA libretro last night, using https://github.com/FalkensMaze1983/ultimate_addon and it worked but it sounds like you're saying this is not suitable if I want to be able to save any data. Is that right?

Download the AddOn Tool from here: https://github.com/FalkensMaze1983/ultimate_addon/tree/master/AddOn_tool

heres the download link for the addon tool https://github.com/FalkensMaze1983/ultimate_addon/tree/master/AddOn_tool, also read the readme so you know how to do everything below

A. Find a sauce from the same type of system. Use 7zip to extract the emulator core (.so) and the rom. Use AddOnTool (https://github.com/FalkensMaze1983/ultimate_addon/tree/master/AddOn_tool) to use your own rom or emulator core . Only mame roms are zipped. All others should be uncompressed.
