@NurseAngela what I have is a cheap usb PS2 replica controller which I have assigned as player one for consoles such as N64, PS1 etc that would need the trigger buttons

Thx! That is actually a good interim solution.

And I think I figured it out. Don't remember changing that setting though. I don't remember setting "ParseGamelistOnly" was set to "True" but it was.

Nothing to see here, move along...

Not currently, you need an SD card for boot.

You can store roms on the SSD though.

@mitu Thank you for the pointers :)

@mitu
That fixed my problem - thanks for your help.

I've just made a donation to Retropie because it's my favourite community project and your help, although a bit tart, was faster and more useful than any paid support I've ever received.

To bring this thread to its full conclusion I finally got round to modifying my copy of Gloom Deluxe.

I made an HD floppy disk image file and used Workbench to copy the contents of both disks to this file. I then modified the s/startup-sequence file to boot straight into the game without loading the setup program. I used ED from the AmigaDOS Shell to do this.

I now have a single disk version of Gloom Deluxe that works perfectly.

We don't support 3rd party images - as outlined in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@mitu
ohh sorry will publish it soon .
and yeha i have on the es_system rom on media/usb/roms/

@dankcushions Hi dank. This is actually great to know, as I think you probably just saved me from disappointment.

So I'm working on an arcade build of sorts for the .221 set in its entirety. I guess I assumed here that I could download and align everything to lr-mame, but that doesn't seem to be the case, correct?

Should I just stick to MAME 0.78 and lr-mame2003-plus and go that route? At least I know those will work and that core is bulletproof.

Yes, you rock !

it works with this change
indeed in the file /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh

changed the line : id="$(echo "$line" | awk '{ print $2 }' | grep "([0-9]\{1,\}x[0-9]\{1,\})")" with this line id="$(echo "$line" | awk '{ print $2 }' | grep -o "(0x[a-f0-9]\{1,\})")" And the line : mode_id[1]="$($XRANDR --verbose | grep " connected" | grep -o "([0-9]\{1,\}x[0-9]\{1,\})")" with this line mode_id[1]="$($XRANDR --verbose | grep " connected" | grep -o "(0x[a-f0-9]\{1,\})")"

Now the video mode selection is working great
Many thanks

@tyon2006 said in Using HD LCD with Retropie and RPi4:

Makes sense. Any thoughts on retroarch/emulation station supporting these super high resolutions?

If you add a custom hdmi_mode and it's recognized by the Pi4, it should be used automatically.

On the Pi3, I couldnt even get it to boot up all the way

That's normal, since the Pi3 didn't support these large resolutions.

You might not even have to do that, look up the max current draw of your drive. Mine was only 220mA. If USB protocols are being followed your USB current should be at least 500mA with no changes required.

@elbitxo our preference is to not support third party images in any capacity. please respect the rules of this forum going forward, and do not seek further support until you are running our image.

for the record, on standard retropie updating should not damage an existing theme, but as per https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/, you must take a backup before updating.

With analog controller it works.
It is weird if i have a RETRO pie that i have to connect a PS4 controller...
There is more weird things, i have lots of advice for the programmers to make it more user friendly.

@ Daistaar : thanks, only way to complicated.
@ YFZdude thank you very much.

it does vt03 and vt09 support, which others don't do at all
