General / Racing rig build; attractmode questions

« on: September 15, 2024, 02:39:13 PM »

Hey guys

I have  a choice between g27 and g923 for this build.

I would prefer to use G923 so that I can connect my PS5 to the rig.
Does Attract Mode work fine with G923, failing that does it work fine with G27?

Is there anything I should be looking at when setting up the steetring wheel to run the frontend. - A keyboard and mouse wont be available unless I am in trouble shooting. I wont to make this a turn on and play unit similar to console experience.

I would be using this rig for some model 2 and model 3 driving title action. Naomi titles probably on the cards too if my PC can handle it.

I want to use Attractmode as I use it on my arcade cabinets, so there will be an ongoing theme in the game room.

OS will be windows(10 or 11).

General / Can we launch roms on Windows PC attract mode from android GUI?

« on: January 14, 2024, 02:39:39 PM »

Hi guys, is there any apps/projects that give us ability to use an android device to launch roms on our windows PC attract mode builds?

For example, the MiSTer FPGA has a remote app that takes the above scenario a bit further by allowing me to launch games, insert credits, press player start, pause, screenshot, bring up virtual keyboard etc from my android device. The remote app connects over my local network to the de10. Its a great initiative when putting this sort of hardware into an original arcade cabinet as these don't have enough physical buttons to cover all the additional "admin" access buttons/hotkeys.

Changing my operating system/hardware for AM build is unfortunately not an option
