Coleco Roms Crash system about esplay-retro-emulation HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @Zach1812

Thanks for reporting, did you run the latest release or fw version ship by makerfabs?

from esplay-retro-emulation.

Hi @pebri86

I'm using the fw version by makerfabs. Ver: 20190805-890e20280e.

I'd love to update to the newest fw if at all possible. However, my microusb port broke on the first night (trying to charge) and despite my attempts to fix it I was unable to. I assume the usb port is the only way to update the fw. (For charging purposes, I'm opening my case, and attaching the battery to an adafruit microlipo charger)

from esplay-retro-emulation.

Please download the latest .fw file at the release page.
You can update the firmware via sdcard. Place the fw file under /esplay/firmware folder on the root sdcard then enter bootloader mode by press menu while powering on, wait til bootloader screen appear. Just select fw file to be flash by A button then start button to begin flashing

Followed your instructions and still have a boot fail on all colecovision games. Menu says...

RetroLauncher
v2.3-esplay-micro
IDF v3.3-202-gefdddbb25-dirty

from esplay-retro-emulation.

It's strange work well on mine, Ah did you have a BIOS file? Coleco emulation needs bios file in order to run. Place the bios with named BIOS.col in /roms/col folder at the root of sdcard

from esplay-retro-emulation.

That fixed it. I had the BIOS in there but it was incorrectly named. Thanks for the help! Btw what are the button controls for Coleco?
