This is already planned - it's a little way off still, but there will be improvements to the way components are installed/uninstalled/updated.

Perhaps something like a custom runcommand that would pass the name of the save state to the emulator. But I don't know if the emulators have that kind of commandline functionality. Seems like a lot of effort when there's already an option to load a save state on startup in retroarch.

See "Random game selection",

@cyberneticwired said in Add a New menu for ROM Hacks:

I am not sure whether this is a good idea or if this would even work but does anyone else think that adding a new menu item for ROM hacks would be a good idea? So you would be able to play them while separating them from the rest of ROMs. The ROMs would still run on there given system but just for cosmetic purposes would be separated.

I just rename mine and have two entries in the gamelist. Simple and easy.

@Riverstorm said in Add pause to Daphne dapinput.ini and full names in detail view:

Still no luck. The pause in Daphne works fine with a keyboard and I-PAC but I can't get pause to work on any joystick wired or wireless. I used XBOX 360's (wired and wireless) and XBOX One (wired--I don't think XBOX One has wireless). Is anybody else have the same issue with pause not working via joystick?

Strange I just did a fresh install last night on a friends cabinet I'm building and it works perfectly on that testing with my Xbox controller.
Not sure if it makes any difference but it's plugged into the upper left USB port on a Rpi3. Here is the line I used, it uses the "Y" button on the 360 controller.
KEY_PAUSE = 112 0 4

Pi Assist Works fine. I didn't know this script. It isn't exactly I was looking for but I thin it's enough to backup up and restore. Maybe If I found any time I'd make a modify to syncing at the moment of load and save the rom.

Thanks!!

can you point a direction for me to research?

i would love to have this feature running

@AZO said in How about this MAME:

http://choccyhobnob.com/mame-0-172-for-raspberry-pi-2/

question is, what games are playable/full speed that aren't on the versions of MAME we already have? i fancy that there would be regression, due to more accurate emulation.

this would be great mostly with the messy arcade games :D

I shouldn't think it would be fast enough on a rpi - however it could be implemented as an experimental module (and could be run on X11 on PC etc)

@meleu It makes sense, for example in the dick tracy (nes) b + select allows Tracy to use the first aid kit. I had to change the default settings to be able to play.

Sorry could not help myself. :)

I think you should put up your request in the thread emulationstation-feature-requests-here

Okay I will look into Emulationstation and mame libraries script in relation to archive.orgs . Probably best to start from scratch.
:-)

I get it. It's just something I always do in retropie. And for n64 games I think make more sense.

I might adjust this to work in the way that doom works - so the gamedata is downloaded as part of the module configure stage directly to the roms/ports/duke3d folder (if no gamedata exists), that way it simplifies things further and no symlinks are needed at all. In the meantime you can do as above and remove the links and copy the gamedata there instead.

This is the default forum behaviour - not sure there is a need to change it. It doesn't do any harm at least, so for now just ignore them :)
