Thank you. Trying to find that as soon as I do, I will get it. Sorry. After a bunch of tries its hard to be optimistic....

@ExarKunIv thank you!

@Rick72 Yip, you need the .bin files too.

Please update retropie-setup and try again.

@BuZz Thanks for all the info.

I am pretty new to Linux but I think I should be okay with the VPN portion of it by following a guide.

As for enabling VPN on boot for RetroPie, that should be as simple correct? Just SSH into the Pi and edit the settings there?

Sorry for the dumb questions!

@Vliro If you disable the xpad driver in RetroPie you get the kernel xpad driver, which is the same between RetroPie and Raspbian (RetroPie images are Raspbian).

In case the answer wasn't obvious, or if anyone is interested. The old save states worked with both bin and pbp files as long as the file names were identical.

@windale

I don't know if the DraStic Bios is custom edited by Exophase for better compatibility (custom fixes).

It's custom, but it seems to have been a choice made by Exophase to make distribution easier. There's an interesting post with him discussing it here. It continues for two posts on the next page as well.

@BuZz OK sure thing best of my knowledge I'll supply more details
Running windows 7
Downloaded retropie from Raspberrypi.org
Used the Jessie download link
Used a SD formatter I downloaded
Just trying to load some ROMs onto this thing
I have the Raspberry pi zero 1v 3 (can't see the act led)
16gb SD card with adapter
Power source I'm running off a adsoter
From my cell phone (meets minimum requirements)
You think that maybe the Raspberry could be faulty? (had a big blue stripe drawn on the logo on top) could be a bad refurbished one...

@Javier unfortunately it's not that simple. Madrigal and the libretro team went through an extensive process of converting his original simulation to Lua, it was also obfuscated in conversion. So whatever simulation is the in the libretro repositories is what you get. The rest of the simulators you reference on that site seem to be flash but again you'd need to disassemble the actionscript code, port it to Lua and recompile into the proper filetype with the libretro core.

@CrazyPharaoh Sorry, I have the same problem whit my Waveshare 5 inch

@FluffySpikes im on the latest version of RetroPie and on kodi 16. I tried 17 but I didn't liked it, so I reinstalled a backup. The missing controller support is not a problem for me, since I prefer to use my tablet to control Kodi.

I set it directly in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/THTTHTArcadeconsole2PUSBPlayer.cfg

input_enable_hotkey_btn = "8"

If I use the Retroarch menu (Settings/Input/Input Hotkey Binds/Enable Hotkeys), I can't set it to 11 because is on js1. I can only set button from js0.

@edmaul69 hi. yes all changes were made within the RetroArch GUI. I checked QuickMenu -> Controls and from Settings -> Input. Both looked ok.

@groviar, did this process end up working to your satisfaction? I've been wanting to do the same thing for a while but my minor experiments with it didn't pan out. This thread is the only thing I can find that covers the topic sufficiently.

@sticcino just look at the docs:
