@tacgnol there's an option in-game to show/hide cursor. Worked for hiding mine :)

Thanks, these are just the features that I missed in raspi2png, especially the incremental file naming.

@gderber I just relized that I don't have a computer powerful enough to test this. Good luck getting it to work!

I wrote a tutorial a while back with some tips to help with the disc swapping and save state mess. https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/19269/tutorial-painless-apple-game-emulation?_=1592965674049

One thing I would like to see is write protect in the emulator. Games written in Apple Pascal need the boot disc write protected or the boot hangs. This includes the first 3 Wizardry games. Like I discussed in the tutorial, you currently need to use file permissions as a workaround for this.

Why isn't screenscraper.fr's content mirrored on the Internet Archive? Seems like exactly the sort of thing they'd collect.

@Clyde said in Storing ROMs and other data on a remote drive:

You can set it in the file /home/pi/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg via the line <bool name="ParseGamelistOnly" value="true" />.

Finally got around to try that out. I didn't notice any real difference in starting time. It spends 80%-ish of the EmulationStation load screen with "Loading system config". The total time from console to be in the UI is ~1 minute regardless if ParseGamelistOnly is set to true or false.

It might be my setup, because there's no es_settings.cfg file available so I had to create it myself:

<?xml version="1.0"?> <bool name="ParseGamelistOnly" value="true" />

Not an option for me then since I use skyscraper when ever i add new games. I really hope they add this as a feature.

@Protocultor said in New scriptmodule for Master System & Game Gear emulator:

Seeing that I've created a second scriptmodule for another Sega 8 bit core, this time I've opted to do a PR for both:
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/3170
I hope this one has a future.

Just in case, Gearsystem, the new core, is not better than SMSPlus-GX, but has SG-1000 support.

SMSPlus-GX looks interesting. Thank you for submitting a PR and keep submitting them and don't be discouraged! 😊

@db666
You're welcome.
Glad to hear my script is being used :)

For your information, @valerino also made a script for Philips CDI.
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/25576/new-scriptmodules-lr-vice-xvic-gsplus-proper-lr-mess-integration
(I did not test that script, it seems it lacks things like mouse, joystick and fullscreen support.
But it seems that he figured out that short named files are not necessary anymore)
It should be nice if the knowledge of both scripts could be combined in the future.

Unless it doubles as a handwarmer, you don't got a Pi4 in there...
