LovingShmups

I posted this request on discord too....

I have a superstation one AND a superdock. I bought the SSD, format exfat ,etc.
No problem there.
Now... Now I can't fix the SSD properly on the bay, in side the Superdock , due to the "plastic lock".
By the way, be careful with this The "plastic thing" : I had to research 2 times, because it felt inside the super dock! Each time you have to fully open the superdock !!! Oh Boy....
On a normal PC, you use screws.
Here.. here I don't know . If someone has any "technic" or any tip with a correct brand of "plastic thing" compatible with the super dock, I'm all ears !! It's really a pain in the a** to fix the SSD inside the superdock !!

A quick question : I know that bethesda will launch, next month Starfield on PS5 and WILL make an effort for the PS5 PRO, with better framerate..
The PSSR 2.0 is now available and I noticed that Oblivion remastered, on PS5 PRO is still full of slowdowns (out of the cities or the villages...).
Can we expect a patch using the new PSSR 2.0 or is it really "out of question" because of the use of Unreal Engine 5 in this game ??

Hi !
I got a 7000 PAL PS2 with an HD combo (with a chip inside too... I don't know the brand..).
The HDD connector is only for IDE HDD. Of course, the HDD is an IDE HDD (240 Go). It's pretty noisy...
As Anyone tried to use a IDE to SATA adapter ?
Is there enough room inside the box ?? I'm not a tech so If any simple method is possible... it could be better for me !!

Hi all !
I guess you heard the news about the Taito Egret 2 mini : taito will release a system update, on September the 5th 2022.
Here is the source : https://www.taito.co.jp/en/mob/topics/25463

I know that neither the Astro city mini nor astro mini V have SD card reader but can Sega do something about the input lag on the astro mini V ??
Astro city mini is suffering from some shimmering (awful vertical shmups, Wonderboy is suffering from a "strange" scrolling , ...)

Hi all !
Maybe a strange question, but will there be a ShmupArch 8.0 (using FbaNeo) ?
It would be great to also use flycast core, in order to have some naomi or Atomiswave games too !!

just saying....

Hi shmupers !
I'm trying to find a controller with a real D PAD , for the PS4 in order to play my PS4 shmups on my PS5.
I'm always had difficulties with Sony's D pad since I started to play with a real cross from Nintendo.
- I saw the Razer Raion from raizer, with a micro switch D pad. I know that this controller is specialized for fighting games but as anyone tried to use it with shmups ?
- Razer Raiju and Raiju Ultimate are using the same D pad as Sony's controller... so no go for me...
- Nacon pro controller 2 has not a "real" D pad.....
- Nacon Asymetric use Bluetooth ... I don't want to have more input lag...
- Hori Onyx or Onyx + seem to have bad reputation on

Hi !

On october 2009, Ikagi-chan posted on Shoryuken Forums, a modification of an Seimitsu LS-32 with some parts from a LS 40. Ikagi-chan gave the name Project LS-36 .

My problem is that the web page on Tech Talk - Shoryuken Forums for this project is long gone.( https://forums.shoryuken.com/t/does-the-seimitsu-ls-32-have-a-shaft-cover/61402/9 )

Update : here is a - working - backup link : https://archive.supercombo.gg/t/ls-32-modification-tutorial-project-ls-36/82895
Sadly, NO pictures ! Even with explanation

Hi everybody!

I’m trying to get information about all the combination possible regarding spring swapping for the Seimitsu joystick.

You can find a lot of information on internet, through Forums and specialized websites.
If you want to know the tension of different springs for the Seimitsu, www.arcadeworlduk.com has covered this (look in the bottom of my post…).
What I read is that you can swap springs between those models:
LS-32 -- LS-40

LS-56 -- LS-58 -- LS-60 -- LS-62

Now I have questions regarding few models:
LS-33 , LS-55 , and LSX Nobi.

I read that you can swap the spring of the standard Nobi and the Pro Nobi..

Hi happy fellows!

I have a question for specialists of the Korean Joysticks.
Before asking my question, I saw tons of advises on reddit, Forums, saw many youtube video from specialist…. I know that you need to try different grommet in order to find “THE one” made for you

I’m a fan of Japanese joysticks (Japanese joysticks are now on the market for a llooonng time now).
I’m open minded and I want to try seriously a Korean Joystick.

First, what kind of video games, I play:
- arcade games (2D mostly),
- action games,
- shmups
-3D fighting games (5 % of my time)

So I’m not an aficionados of Tekken and other 3D fighting games (I like 2D games, like street fi

Hi !I'm not asking for roms here, I'm a big boy and Google is my friend...
Here is my question : I've checked the ShmupArch Compatibility List and I can't find some specific roms :
FixEl
GLiviange
Leion
Meqadon
Super Zwocon
Tempi (world)

Are those roms arcade games or console games ? Homebrews ?
What are the names of the zipped roms ?
I tried to search on google without any success and I have the full set of Final Burn Alpha....

Hi !
i know (wiki...) that PS3 controller is using the Bluetooth technology in order to connect with the PS3.
If we wire the PS3 with a USB cable to the PS3, can we have NO latency at all (compare to the wireless mod, of course ) ?

Hi , happy fellows !
I have a question regarding joysticks made out of aluminium or with a top plate made of aluminium.
arcadeshock.com sell Aluminum Control Panel for HRAP 2 and 3. my top plate (without any plexiglass on it...) is getting "old" / scratched.
i never had any aluminium top plate before...
- is the aluminium totally scratch proof ?
- What about people with "sweating hands" ? Is the aluminium "attacked" by the sweat ??
- is the "touch" of aluminium too much cold for a human being ?
- how do you clean this kind of aluminium joystick ?
