Howard used to be a lot cooler.

I couldn't take the Voron hype anymore and ordered a refurbed SV08.  May God have mercy on my soul.

corexy.
at some point

still haven't configured pressure advance or input shaping and not sure if i will bother.
since it's a bigger print bed i will probably try input shaping.

Both those things make a huge difference and not just in speed.
Getting pressure advance right makes the sides print look smoother and eliminates bulging at the corner.
Input shaper gets rid of artifacts that may be worse at higher speeds, but the improvement will probably still be visible at your current speeds.
(Or you can print much faster and end up with the same quality you have now.)

Initial setup for input shaping is a bit of a PITA, but neither is that difficult once you get into them.
Pressure advance can vary by filament, but in my experience it doesn't vary all that much if sticking to the same type of filament (ie ABS).  I only change it when running bigger nozzles or weird filament types.  If you are constantly changing filaments and nozzle sizes, then I can see where it would be a hassle.  You can have the slicer set it as part of the filament profile, but if using the same profiles on a bunch of different printers that could be an issue.

ok you convinced me.
even though i'm only printing at 100-120mm/s on this printer.
any faster and it shakes like hell.

@buttersoft , do you know how to output lamps signal? I tried "broadcast digital output" but it freezes all my naomi games. Thanks

No, i do not :/ I haven't actually looked at updating my flycast install for ID3 for a while, but was planning to soon. Hmm, you have output lamps going for MAME or Teknoparrot or something else, via MAMEhooker, presumably? It might be worth checking with Boom or MightyMike about whether the outputblaster supports flycast. I'd jump into the discord right now but i'm away on holidays with the family this week

I plan to go through this soon, so watch this space? I'm sure i know you from a discord too, fablog, but which one? IDPlayers?

The only discord channel we have in common is the TP one. Output blast works with every other emulator.

Anyone have a copy on the googles drive? The link on the DG page is dead.. thanks

Here's a link to Howard's wrapper for FIFJ on archive.org.

Except for some hardware problem Zebidee mentionned, I wonder if you're using GroovyArcade the right way ...

On boot if you select the 15kHz option, it won't display a 480p picture but a 480i. Then you have to press the keyboard when required so GroovyArcade can know what monitor is connected and where.

I do have a Sony Trinitron myself in that series, somehow. But living in France, I've got 2 scart inputs at the back of the TV, makes life much easier than tranascoders or such 

Hello,

Attaching tutorial for setting up Lichtknarre with PCSX2 two player using Vjoy.  I highly recommend using user nixxou's pcsx2 fork build because it fixes split-screen time crisis 2 and 3.

Sounds like a stuck key.
