@glennlake , sure, I will try to do what you say.

Let's see what happen!

Thanks

@BenWlson said in PS3 Controller connected via USB:

You should be able to plug in in via USB and have it work right away. I think you may need to press the PS home button once after plugging it in to make it work.

The only caveat I've noticed is that the battery starts charging as well, so this could affect your ability to have anything else plugged into the pi at the same time due to the power consumption.

@BenWlson & @ZombieMedia

If you open up the controller and remove the battery it will still work but only using a wire.

This way you don't have to worry about it charging and it also feels lighter.

Got it lol, I just noticed your the YouTube guy I've been seeing all the tutorials on how to setup RetroPie. Thanks for all your dedication, I appreciate it.

@InsecureSpike said in NeoGeo CD on retropie?:

pretty sure no neo-geo/fba emus support CD
but i think MESS may do

That's partly true. FBA Standalone supports Neo-Geo CD but the libretro core does not.

Just don't listen to the villagers. They lie.

Here is a decent article I found:

Any plans on incorporating touch screen inputs ? (Retroarch mainly ) ?
Asking for the pi screens -
I can upload a build (Raspi Weasy / RetroPie ) from manufacturers 7 inch touch screen hdmi setup
(or provide links to get the raw Raspi Jessy for this screen )!!
(cannot post picture - OneDrive is having it's monthlies - [embed] went away )

and thanks to pi-baker & retropie team - 'keeping the silver surfers gaming'

Same here, I'm a happy camper :)

Played Lego Star wars The Clone Wars with my son today :)

@Floob said in snapshot sizes:

The only reason to do it manually would be to have more options around the flags that can be set I think.

Yes that's the reason I mentioned the binary files.

Hello.
Thanks for reply, that confirmed my experience.
Have done a raspberry, retropie, Gameboy DMG mod, with a 3.5" "backup monitor" with composite in.
Picture is ok but not good, there are some disturbance in picture, maybe this could be done better by doing some (emc) shielding on picture signal cable. Or rerouting it in dmg case.

It was then i had this 3.5 Waveshare screen who would give so much better picture to this setup if it had been fast enough.
But now after several evenings and hours installing and reinstalling Retropie im about to give up this screen for this project.

But i also have a Itead 2.8 itdb02 tft screen.
Who will fit into a Gameboy Pocket or Color, maybe this will give better fps.
But i have big problems figuring out how to wire/ connnect it to the Pi, because it is not a direct plug on but have to use wire

I tried the Atari route and got there in the end, it's a little tricky and I suffered with 'Bum Copy' messages a few times, but it does work.

I also tried the PSX route too and I have to admit, it's much easier.

However, the PSX route offers slightly lower quality graphics (the text for the scores at the top isn't as sharp as it is on the Atari version) but there isn't much noticeable different in-game so I think I'm going to stick with the PSX version (which also loads a lot quicker).

I might need to make some tweaks somewhere though as the PSX uses some odd keyboard controls (I'm using arcade controls on an I-Pac2) so I might need to remap something to make it easier to use.

But, it works!!!

I can play IK+ !!!

This is just brilliant, absolutely bloody brilliant!

Thanks everyone :))

If you want me to take another shot at compiling and running it, I suggest you add the info from this thread to a new issue on my issue tracker as I'm about to move to another province and won't be around for a little while.

https://github.com/zerojay/RetroPie-Extra/issues

And again, I was able to compile it, but it complains about EGL issues at launch, requires X and didn't appear to work through glshim despite what was said about it being mobile compatible.

Just wanted to say congrats! I'm new to the forums. My past experiences with Retropie have been bittersweet. It's been something I wanted to mess around with but could never quite figure out (mainly how to set up and map the controls) but I gotta say this has been the easiest Retropie image to set up. There wasn't much extensive information out there before which BTW Shoutouts to ETAPrime and @Floob for their helpful Youtube videos!

I have a couple of older + Pi models lying around which I plan to repurpose for Retropie projects. I have an A+ I want to make a handheld and I'm thinking of maybe making a simple cabinet with my B+. I'm currently running Retropie on the Pi2 for my niece and nephew. I'm planning on setting up the image on my Pi3 soon as I've already tried it and things seem to run slightly better than on the Pi2 IMO.

Thank you to The Retropie Team for all the hard work they've put into making Retropie what it is! Keep up the good work!

Thank you! Couldn't find it ;)
