For those of you who have been having issue with certain FDS games, such as Nazo no Murasame, as far as disk switching. I show the easy way to do it in the video. I also show how to load Nestopia core for compressed games, since it defaults to Fceumm core, when compressed (You obviously still need --retroarch, at minimum:)...for NES and FDS. It would likely require a revision to the Retroarch HMOD, to run Nestopia by default, with compressed games, since this was not taken into account initially. But, nonetheless, this is still an easy way to do both workarounds. You can probably still use Global Arguments --retroarch --core nestopia, as an alternative option. But, my preference is FCEUMM core, overall. I avoid global commands, since I like to manually override each game, individually, that needs done:)

NOTE:) No special setup required:) Other than making sure you have Retroarch HMOD installed:)

Then "add" the game into hakchi2, and you will get a command line argument, similar to this, by default.

/bin/clover-kachikachi-wr /usr/share/games/nes/kachikachi/CLV-Z-HGBYZ/CLV-Z-HGBYZ.fds --guest-overscan-dimensions 0,0,9,3 --initial-fadein-durations 10,2 --volume 75 --enable-armet --fds-auto-disk-side-switch-on-keypress

Add THIS to the argument (make SURE to leave a space after the word keypress).

--retroarch --core nestopia

So, it will now be...roughly, this.

/bin/clover-kachikachi-wr /usr/share/games/nes/kachikachi/CLV-Z-HGBYZ/CLV-Z-HGBYZ.fds --guest-overscan-dimensions 0,0,9,3 --initial-fadein-durations 10,2 --volume 75 --enable-armet --fds-auto-disk-side-switch-on-keypress --retroarch --core nestopia


Alternately, you can amend the command line, like so...

/bin/clover-kachikachi-wr /usr/share/games/nes/kachikachi/CLV-Z-HGBYZ/CLV-Z-HGBYZ.fds --guest-overscan-dimensions 0,0,9,3 --initial-fadein-durations 10,2 --volume 75 --enable-armet --fds-auto-disk-side-switch-on-keypress --retroarch --fceumm

to run FCEUMM core, instead.

You can "test" to see you have the proper command line, by holding down select+start simultaneously, while in a game. It should pull up retroarch options, if you have retroarch hmod installed.

Given you have a proper controller:)

L1 is automatically configured to FLIP the disk, R1 is automatically configured to EJECT and INSERT the disk. So, when you get the message for B, you EJECT (R1), then FLIP (L1), then INSERT (R1:) Most people do this incorrectly, and EJECT then INSERT, without flipping:) Try it, it works awesome! Not every game requires this "trick". Just some.
