tochd VS mame

Do you mean this is a file that you mount? If not, RetroArch can play CD formats if these are files, such as CHD (I convert every CD format like .iso and .cue to .chd files; look at my other program tochd ). So if you don't access the real CD/DVD drive of your PC, then you probably don't need to mount any CD format to play them with RetroArch.

The Discover app uses a different way of installing programs and I do not have the program there. It was not designed to work on Steam Deck, because it expects some programs to be installed (7z and chdman). There is a way of downloading the program directly, but you need to have 7z and chdman and use the options to point to it. You could download from https://github.com/thingsiplay/tochd/releases the "tochd-0.9-bin.7z" and unpack and run it without installing. You would need to point to the programs like this: ./tochd --7z "path/to/7z" --chdman "path/to/chdman" . (the last dot in the command means current directory, in which the program will search all files in current directory to convert).

Hi everyone. Today I created my first Archlinux package using makepkg. I hope it went all right. Might someone want have a look at the PKGBUILD file? The program itself is not very complicated to install, just a single Python script to copy into a directory.

For Linux I have a Python script to convert to CHD format. It does some smart things that aren't handled by simple scripts. Just in case you are interested to check it out: https://github.com/thingsiplay/tochd

Yes, there are many challenges in reverse engineering these classic games. This is a good example.

Living in L.A. in the 90's, I remember Pack Mann in Pasadena had this one.

The ROM dump's been done but people seem to be stuck on the RLE encoding. It's hard to say what kind of wizardry is needed in this case.

There's a good start at it in the tree ( https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/master/src/mame/yamaha/... ) but it's missing the sound generation which is kind of the important part :-)

> As requested by users, you can finally use delta CHD files for clone systems and software items. This allows for major disk space savings in some cases when you have multiple versions of a system or software item.

FWIW, this is commit https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/d1172bf710f2a7b1777ed...

The GitHub Actions workflow bgfxshaders.yml will rebuild the shaders and then zip them up as an artefact. If you push your shader changes to GitHub and let the workflow run, you can grab the rebuilt shades from there.

Note that the process of getting the MSYS64/MinGW build environment set up is simple enough that we have automated CI builds for it on GitHub Actions without needing any custom actions of our own.

I assume they’re free vend because they’re MAME based?
