Not sure if my below post regarding audio was lost in the sea of replies, however I am having major audio stuttering and static issues as well as not sure where to actually add keyboard inputs for various controls of the roms.
Thanks From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Devin Prater Sent: Friday, December 13, 2019 10:43 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [blind-gamers] RetroArch accessibility & Windows10 Retroarch allows one to use many different emulators in a unified, and now accessible, way. For general info, see https://www.retroarch.com. For the accessibility part, see https://www.libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-1-8-2-coming-soon-accessibility-features-for-blind-people/. It does take some setting up, but that only took me a good 20 minutes to configure the Xbox controller, AI service key, and get a game up and going. Emulators themselves in Retroarch can be downloaded from the online updater, in the “update cores” section, where you’ll find a List of systems to get. Then, load your game from the “load content section from the main menu. On Dec 13, 2019, at 10:36 PM, Kenny Cheung <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Is Retroarch a emulator?

Then you can load the game for it. On Dec 13, 2019, at 10:30 PM, Devin Prater <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Oh, sorry, Shaolin Monks is not accessible.

The other is a Mortal Kombat game, Mortal Kombat - Shaolin Monks. both are Iso files, but i believe one is a Playstation 2 and the other may be Playstation PSP. I will try and load them and see what happens. ~Ann On 12/13/2019 11:05 PM, Devin Prater wrote: You simply load the ROM file. For example, if the game is Mortal Kombat, on a Nintendo 64, the file might be called mortal kombat.Z64. If it were a PSP game, it’d be Mortal Kombat.iso. So, just find what the ROM is called in file explorer, and load that. If the ROM has many files, like the Play Station games, load the .cue file. What game for what system are you trying to load?

This is where a beginners or newbies tutorial would be so nice. ~Ann On 12/13/2019 10:42 PM, Devin Prater wrote: Okay, so for where to put ROMs, you can put them anywhere, just find that location when you “load content” which is how you load games. Once you load it for the first time, though, you can arrow left and you’ll find the recent games in the “horizontal menu. For OCR, you must set up the AI service, and set a key, or game controller press of a button or multiple buttons, to activate it. It is similar to OCR in screen readers.

Then, in the target box, I added the word --accessibility to the end of the target path. This worked for me. The OCR seems to be in real time. I could use a lot of advice though on how to install and/or load Rom's, etc. since perhaps Roms is a bit of a touchy subject, If anyone can maybe guide me through this off list, it would be great? Folks can contact me at: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> I think an absolute beginners tutorial or podcast specifically devoted to those of us using Accessibility, maybe taking a person through the initial install, configuration, and installing and running a Rom would be a nice thing to have? Especially since this is very new for many of us. ~Ann On 12/13/2019 6:39 PM, michael barnes wrote: How do you turn on the accesibility mode? Also where do you put the rums?
