@Riverstorm I'm also trying to get a "Golden Age of Arcade vide games" box up and running. Have you managed to get Dynablasters (aka Atomic Bomberman) up and running with 4 players? I bought 4 SNES USB controllers, that I'm hoping to be using for this. Any hints on that?

What PSU are you using ? Perhaps it's power related ? When you plug the non working one in, do you get any output in dmesg (type it in a terminal and see if it mentions the controller at the end)

@Dusty If you haven't done any config customization, go to the File Manager, and browse to the ROMS folder. There you'll find names of all the systems, nes, n64 and so on. There you put the roms and there will also be your saves.

Pi/roms/n64/Mario64.v64 the game
PI/roms/n64/Mario64.srm the save

@dabone said in Commodore VIC20 - ROMs:

Have you tried just using the mega-cart image?

I just use a single entry in my c64 menu.
I then launch a image of the megacart.

It has 99.9% of anything you want to run on the vic from a joystick driven menu.
And it works for either pal or ntsc emulation.

The command to launch is.

xvic -cartmega mega-cart.rom -mcnvramwriteback -mcnvramfile mega-cart.nv

I tried running this command while in xvic and got an out of memory error. Is this run on the rPi via ssh instead? (new to this emulator)

If you don’t have the nv file, I just created a blank file and let the emulator fill it in.

Create the mega-cart.nv blank file in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/c64 ?

@kcc406

I've seen you be helpful in the time you've been here. I found two examples and upvoted them. Just don't go spamming anything about diet pills and get me in trouble.

Yeah the problem occurred when I tried one of my SNK Joysticks, and it didn't detect the input. I had to hit ESC to cancel, and didn't have a keyboard. I realize now I can just reconfigure an existing controller to get out of the situation.

Thanks for the feedback!

@Flipp3rix said in PSX GAMES DON'T START!:

What is the stable version of retropie, where i can download it?

Seriously? https://retropie.org.uk/download/ you are joking right?

PS: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

I have got them working now, not sure what I did. Reset the system a couple of times made sure to configure the controllers. But it is working now. The only issue now is N64 games seem to not like multi player and the buttons are off.

@tipoto iI was reading you post and i was wondering if you could help me on this, or let me know if its even possible, I have a pi3 with an ipac i/o wil the roms running off a HDD, and would like to run leds on a emulator bases and it looks like your script will work but i am not sure where you loaded then in to and i am not sure if your code will would with my ipac.

Now I formatted my Sd card again and wrote the retropie image. I started the system and inserted the USB stick. I waitet for an hour and now all games are there, including dreamcast. Somehow it only works the first time. I think that's strange.

What am I doing wrong?

Follow-up, should this still work if you is talked the PS3 Bluetooth drivers?

Thanks for the information Zpectre87 - yes definitely looking forward to the wireless portion, wired works, but for a nice clean setup for your bar/game area it would be nice to have wireless! looking forward to hopefully getting that functionality

Thanks for these information, you´re fully right and I didn´t provide the information as expected. I will double check all and If i found any problem I will ask correctly.

Thanks¡¡

I managed to get it to work!

Turns out that I had to change the retroarch.cfg files inside the individual emulator folder, since the global retroarch.cfg file changes did not seem to register for the Neogeo ROM :)

Thank you. That solved the problem.

Compare the files that were generated in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/
