@sf_junkie said in Odd Sound Issue with Neo-Geo games when loading a save state:

lr-fbalpha

I don't think anyone is gonna provide that kind of support for several years old version of our project (i certainly won't), so you should use the current version (FBNeo), furthermore that issue is probably something we solved long ago because afaik those games work properly with runahead (which saves and load states at every frame).

Hi. This is a topic that comes up a lot on this forum. You can do a search for the answer for it and you'll have a very long list to read from.

Specific BIOS files, with specific names and specific ROMs for each...etc

Here is my answer to a recent post with the same question. Please read not only the procedure above, but this one as well. That's the BEST answer anyone can give you.

"once you have the correct BIOS files in place and the emulator(s) working. I highly suggest taking some time to go through this build setup for lr-atari800/5200.

Without it, your systems will work, but look nothing like they should, especially the a800 side."

I put the link in the WayBack Machine on archive.org and got this:

Not sure if this is what you are looking for or not.

Standalone Tyrquake has some cvars that control this (scr_menuscale, scr_hudscale), but they don't seem to be supported by the libretro fork.

@retropie start with a specific % volume

@mitu said in Pi4 - My red status led remain "Consistently Lit" also after shutdown.. it's normal ?:

Another question it's... how i can identify my actual hdmi cable if it's unidirectional or bidirectional ?

Never heard of 'unidirectional' HDMI/HDMI cable, but you probably have a regular cable, which can be plugged either way.

I have found some on amazon.it but noone whit a clear description of also whit a explanatory review :)

When i can I try to ask my trusted electronic parts seller :)

@sleve_mcdichael aahh ok, so it's cause it's not on a Raspberry, ok that makes sense then. Thank you

Please add the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first to your topic.

@marconemusic also, lemme add.
That the controller order changes if I use a different emulator…
Currently I’m using the LR -

Thanks for your help, I will give it a try.

Thanks again

@metal-ghost

Hey I got it to work. When pairing via Bluetooth I don’t wake up the VCS Classic controller until about 30 seconds or so after the searching for Bluetooth with the pi. That way the VCS controller does not turn off before it finishes.

Once I set it up in emulation station I launch a game and the controls get mapped all wrong for some reason so I go into RetroArch under settings->input->port 1 (or something like that I’m not at my pi right now) I’ll reconfigure the controls and save controller profile.

Now it works except the paddle. Unfortunately it’s using a different scheme (I believe it starts at 0 and wraps all the way to 1 when it resets to zero, I’ve seen people explain it better on Reddit). It works great on stella on my windows. But I haven’t figured it out on Retropie. I’ll keep looking and trying things to get the paddle to work.

@melovegames

Thanks !

And did my advice using mame with -autoframeskip or the video-mode help ?

With mame you can also use the F8 and F9 to specify your own frameskipping.
F11 will show the frameskipping information.

We don't offer support for 3rd party images - only for the image you install from retropie.org.uk/download. Ask the seller of the image for support or install the official image and we can provide support.

@mitu yea it did remove it. Added that back in commented a few other statements. It works but I don't think my screen has a good enough refresh rate for this project. Oh well, learning has occurred.

@mahoneyt944 I was mainly looking at the history of the official driver, which had quite a lot of fixes over the last 15 years. I don't know the status of mame2003+ about those fixes.

@sleve_mcdichael I'll give it all a shot when I get home. I'm also going to try and reinstall the RetroPie image without Raspbian. See if I can get the lcd to load. I think it would make for better gaming in the long run.

@mahoneyt944
Hey man, no nothing worked, dont know why it didnt let me "enter" any key. It just didnt do anything an no no key was stuck or sticky ;)
Anyway, thanks to the help of Mr sleve_mcdichael i managed to do it. Yay :D
Thanks for you as well.
Big up
