@ddallman said in Player 1 START button not working IN GAME - CPS1:

What could be the deal?

If the start button works everywhere except the cps1 games, i would expect the issue to be in mame2003's cps1 emulation ? However i don't think you'll get support for this emulator, using mame2003-plus or FBNeo is highly recommended nowaday. Also, FBNeo is supposed to provide the best experience with cps1/cps2 in terms of accuracy and input lag.

@icvaalmall84 It's not down, https://www.screenscraper.fr works fine.

@mitu welp, you solved my problem. So emulationstation if launched from c:\programfiles\emulationstation\emulationstation.exe it is v2.9.0RP-DEV which works fine. I originally set it to install in D:\emulationstation so the exe in that location launches v2.0.1A which I just realized I accidentally deleted my desktop exe and then went to that location to grab it again. Dont know why there are 2 locations but v2.0.1A is what causes a problem. Somehow when typing this I went to 2.9.0 without thinking to check the version and then just closed it but every time I tried to use a controller I was launching v2.0.1. Sorry and thank you ._.

Going to leave this up unless mods wanna delete it cause maybe others might make a dumb mistake like me.

@quicksilver @mitu

It worked! Thanks for the help!!!

@washburngopro

That might be run-ahead instances. I think the setting is found under "latency".
Could set it to zero, I never use it but it is okay with some Nintendo games.

The bios is good, you should keep it. Rarely (Arc the Lad Monster Tournament) do I ever have to use no bios.

If your pi doesn't have any heatsink, airflow, cooling fan, radiator. It will overheat and the SoC/CPU will throttle undermining performance in some games. While it is possible to underclock and increase the soft/temp limit to get adequate performance for PSX, good ventilation is still needed when playing 4+ hours.

The power supply im using is working fine i fixed that issue

The issues i keep running into keep changing
now for some reason when i try to set up the wifi country in the retropie settings i get an error saying "could not communicate with wpa_supplicant" and then it says "there was an error running option I4 change wifi country" what do i need to do to fix this issue? i believe it is because of this that the ethernet on the raspberrypi isnt being accepted either

I had this issue where a left mouse click would freeze any game that had a panel overlay (the side art around the actual gameplay). Here was a thread about it. It looks like its fixed on the newest version of Retroarch 1.7.7.

Thank you very much @barbudreadmon and @mitu the game now creates the gng.hi and correctly saves the hiscores.

@simpleethat No worries mate thanks for your help.

It's good that this is documented so if it happens to somebody else they know how to fix it.

@JustinWagga said in SAMBA Can't get it working:

It was just a recommended fix I found by Googling.

I would rollback the changes in your Win10 install. What edition and version of Win 10 do you have ? I know some editions disable automatcally guest login.

@Sebiohazard Can you give me an example - a game that doesn't work ? The info might not be on the scraping site for that particular game.

@Sebiohazard Please add more info about your system - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@mitu - Not a big deal but shouldn't Core Providedfill the screen on the x or y axis but not necessarily Integer Scaling which would be more of a whole number multiple of the original resolution less than the display resolution or am I reading that wrong?

@Thorr69 - Just to add to that I think the folder change was to correct a Retroarch Netplay issue and not so much of a core or RetroPie issue/change. If you're using an older version prior to 4.5 like 4.3 or 4.4 it will probably still use the old path unless your update RA then the new path will apply.

Thank you! You saved my day!
