To get a random file from a list of files, you can use the same approach as the splashscreen command, using the shuf command:

file=$(find "/path/to/images" -maxdepth 1 -type f | shuf -n1) # link $file to system's `launching.png`. ln -sf "$file" "path_to_launch_image/launching.png"

@retropieer737 Alas, I didn't use my Aimtraks for over a year. Maybe you should open your own support thread and describe in detail what you did, and quote any error messages explicitly.

Once you've forked the RetroPie-Setup repository (as you've already done), create a branch in it and modify the file you want. Then you can submit a PR from the browser, based on your modified branch - https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request-from-a-fork.

Here is a potential solution

From emulationstation, enter RetroPie configuration Then RetroArch In the Main Menu of RetroArch, select Settings -> Input

From there, go down to Port 1 Controls and update the following

Set Device Type to RetroPad with Analog Set Device index to 8BitDo SN30 Pro+

I was able to get two controller working with this work around.

Versions

Program Version / Hash emulationstation 2.9.6RP retroarch-setup.sh b3acb001fcf6276a2ef5c5b4caca135b399797f8 retroarch 8373ac6

In hindsight having a keyboard plugged in may have been problematic in regards to it defaulting to the primary controller.

@dizmodawg you know what I'm looking at the Daphne documentation and it looks like it's a bit more involved than most other emulators. Usually, I would add the new <extensions> to the entry in ~/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg, and then add the new emulator line(s) in /opt/retropie/configs/[system]/emulators.cfg.

But Daphne has that weird folder structure, where there's a roms folder with the .zip files but that's not the game entry, the *.daphne folders are the game entries. And the Daphne system doesn't read .zip files as entries but the Arcade system does, so if you merge them in this same way, then your "Arcade" system will have a weird "roms" sub-folder in it with a bunch of zip files that don't work...

In this case, I think maybe it's better off leaving it a separate system.

@mitu Thank You very much for info👏

@protocultor Hey,, thank you man, I can now see the glowing of the eye's monsters in the dark, and machine's screens too, the only drawback is that I need to use, like you reccomend, Doom Software Renderer (+vid_renderer 0) to do the trick, because with Opengl-accelerated (+vid_renderer 0) this file (softfx.wad) apperars to do almost nothing for the bright of those elements.

With Doom Software Renderer:

doom_glowing_machinery.png

With Opengel-accelerated:

doom_no_glowing_machinery.png

Another drawback is that with "doom software renderer" I can't use "lights.pk3", I think this have to be with both files (lights.pk3 and SoftFX.wad) were made for differents renderers and because of that, they are incompatibles each other.

That's a shame, because lights.pk3 adds some nice animated light effects to some items ans such things:

With DoomSoftware Renderer:

doom_helmet_no_glow.png

With Opengel-accelerated:

doom_helmet_glow.png

Anyway I'ts an improvement, so thank you my friend, I like that glowing eyes !!

@hooperre said in Netplay with mupen64plus-auto?:

Have you used Netplay outside of a LAN type situation? I've heard it's optimized for LAN use and doesn't work well over the interwebs.

I played some Metal Slug on my RetroPie arcade cabinet (3B+) through Retroarch's Netplay. I was in the U.S. and he was in the U.K. playing on a hacked Switch console.

We had to make sure we both had the same Retroarch version, emulator (LR-MAME2003), and ROM. It may not work flawlessly over the Internet, but it seemed to work fine (given the situation). We ended up beating Metal Slug with a lot of virtual quarters. I think there may be some input lag depending on emulation demand.

@rcb8dboy I managed to fix this on my Pi. Details in this forum post.

Hope it helps!

@markyb2021 the keyboard will definitely work, the keys that are apple specific might do something funky, but it'll definitely work fine for any keyboard based games you're looking to play

I just got it working with the following python script using rgbcommander's servostik linux command line. Hardware mode is not needed.

from gpiozero import Button from subprocess import check_call from signal import pause #Functions def onGpio3Open(): #Arcade 1up switched to OFF check_call(['sudo', 'poweroff']) print("gpio3Released") check_call(['sudo', 'poweroff']) def onGpio17Closed(): print("gpio17Pressed") check_call(['sudo', './SetServoStik', '8']) def onGpio27Closed(): print("gpio27Pressed") check_call(['sudo', './SetServoStik', '4']) #Main Execution Starts Here gpio3Btn = Button(3) gpio3Btn.when_released = onGpio3Open gpio17Btn = Button(17) gpio17Btn.when_pressed = onGpio17Closed gpio27Btn = Button(27) gpio27Btn.when_pressed = onGpio27Closed pause()

.rNN files are split .rar compressed archives. to extract the lot, open the .rar file in a program that can understand .rar compression. eg https://www.7-zip.org/ - it will pull from those .rNN files as appropriate.

.sfv files are just checksum data. you can ignore it.

You just need to update RetroPie and it's packages and you'll get the latest ScummVM release.

@thecwestions
It looks like your version is based on Raspbian 8 (Jesse).
You are two OS versions behind current.
As @sleve_mcdichael mentioned you should download and install the latest pre-built image.

@azurarutlan told you ;)

@a1eg so are you saying you still did not get this to work?

What BIOS files do you have...where did you put them? Are they zipped, or unzipped. What did you name them.

Lr-Atari800 works fine when you have everything set up. I've been using it for over a year and its one of my favorite choices.

You're doing something wrong.

@mitu That is great information, thanks! I will have a play around with this.

EDIT: Worked like a charm, awesome. I never knew creating a custom shader would be this easy.

@buzz Thanks.

@kounabi22

ok found solution i change it.
