  I was having problems with the old version of RetroPie 3.9 the game will start playing and suddenly freeze. I try installing and uninstalling the Emulator but the problem was there when I finally find the newest version of the RetroPie MAME Emulators and now the games run smoothly and the enjoy of playing the game is back.

  @Solid-One not sure it was the card - I’ve re-ripped to bin+cue using ImgBurn on Windows, and it seems much better. On a slightly different note: I’ve placed the PS BIOS files (not the game files) into the folder where they’re meant to belong, but is there an easy way to tell if they’re being used in place of the inbuilt ones? I’ll have a hunt for the answer elsewhere as well, you’ve been more than helpful as it is! My thanks.

  https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/21826/newer-version-of-drastic-compatible-with-raspberry-pi/36 this should solve your problem its a later revision of drastic compiled for odroid that is also compatable with rpi by all accounts fixes any games with mic requirements and also solves the issue with the emu running in the background after exit should be a simple case of swap out the binary

  @ignatius We don't offer support for 3rd party images - especially the ones sold with RetroPie - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Selling RetroPie is agains the project's license, so you just enriched a scammer. You should ask the seller for support.

  @quicksilver Im not quite sure why it would be missing as i would think that the sp_pak4.pk3 file would be found in a normal installation. The GOG version works perfectly fine. It could be due to some patch version dependant of the source port. Great to hear that performance is very good as i took the time to look into optimizing the port. When you first build it, the display is not correctly scaled to full size and when you do change that, it does not run great and therefore i looked at the Quake 3 config file and made most of the same changes to the wolfconfig.cfg file.

  @XyberDAWG said in Running ROMs from a Network Share: But when emulationstation starts, it hangs at checking system config. it will not move past that. I have verified the es_systems.cfg it is all proper, and matches my rom paths exactly. Start Emulationstation with the --debug option and post the log you get - in a new topic please where you add the info about your system as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

  @Parabolaralus that Aftershock played at Gibson Ranch like, 7-8 miles from my house a few years ago. I went outside on my patio and could hear it. It was pretty bitchin.

  Like Mario Bros, this is a great game to play competitively, actively trying to destroy the other player while also not falling victim to the CPU opponents. Try it this way sometime (and Mario Bros.)

  How would you go about restricting the server's virtual keyboard to only pass through certain keys regardless of what keys the browser sends?
