  @mitu said in Getting Started with ES Development.: It's called dialog - https://linuxgazette.net/101/sunil.html. Wow. In that case, the feature I want to add isn't even a RetroPie-specific feature at all. I want to add an on-screen-keyboard option to dialog and then have the RetroPie setup script use it when text entry is required. That would enable entering the wifi password with a game controller. So I believe I'd need to start here, (or maybe here?) code up my own new version and then get RetroPie onto using that, with a new -osk command line option. (later edit) I have started a fork of dialog and even got it to make using this guide

  Try to see if the program doesn't search the current folder for the file needed. This way, you can cd to the game's folder and run it from there.

  Has anyone had any luck getting Phantasmagoria 2 to run on lr-scummvm? It runs fine under scummvm, but when I try to run it with lr-scummvm it just crashes back to ES.

  I've made a few, mainly cosmetic, modifications and issued the pull request so it should be merged with the main project soon.

  @muldjord That must be it for those titles but it is strange that they changed recently. These are older NES titles so perhaps screenscraper changed for some of those titles. Not a big deal, just wanted to point it out. Thanks!

  @jamrom2 said in new scriptmodules (lr-vice-xvic, gsplus, proper lr-mess integration!): @valerino Hi. I was just informed by another user (gpmcty) who read that in order to get the lr-atari800 core to work, you have to unplug your USB controller.... and he is correct. Nothing works unless I yank out my controller right after I select the game in the Emulationstation menu. This is for the Atari800 side and A5200 side of the lr-atari800 core. Is anyone working on a fix for this? Once the core starts... it works great and there are no further issues. Thanks! Sounds like something to report to upstream: https://github.com/libretro/libretro-atari800

  Actually it turns out that evhz gets seriously confused with a HID composite device mouse+joystick sending data at high rates. sometimes I read actual values, sometimes very slow updates I can find many mouse rate tester apps, but nothing for USB joysticks. Does anyone know of a utility for joysticks similar to mouserate?

  6Player Version of Xmen -> Reminds me: For ROMLister or similiar Tools, which version of the multiplayer.ini/nplayer.ini should/could be used? I guess that the one for .78 won't suffice and later ones may be inappropiate due to missing - and/or renamed roms?

  @mitu said in Texmaster port?: @BobHarris The log shows that installation tries to unpack the .7z archive from http://zerojay.com/Texmaster2009-5.7z, but that archive is no longer available at that location, so that's why (I think) the scriptmodule installation fails. Sorry about that. I've updated the installation script to point to another copy of it on my server and have submitted it to RetroPie-Extra. Now to figure out how to fix the resolution...

  @hhromic Thanks for all of the continued effort on this project! It's really been awesome to see it continued to be worked on, and really makes it simple to set up game streaming! Random question for you -- I'm fairly confident it's an upstream moonlight issue, but figured you'd might have some insight. I've recently added some XBOX Game Pass games to be streamed via moonlight. I did this by creating a Desktop shortcut to the game, and then manually adding that to GFE under the Shield tab. This part works great! What doesn't work great though, is that it doesn't then force a resolution change on my PC (I'm running 21:9 1440p natively) to 1080p (like steam games / autodetected games do), resulting in a letterboxed experience, even if I set the in game resolution to 1080p. Any ideas by chance?

  @BuZz Hope you are well - just wondering did you ever back from @inolen outside of the forum about adding Redream support for x86_64? Thanks!

  @HipsterDuRocher Thanks for the offer. We wouldn't be able to link anything in with subscribers as I can't share any data with external sites. Not sure what you had in mind, but even if it was possible I lack free time to do any sort of collaborative work. Sorry. But wish you all the best with your site and thanks for your efforts.
