I managed to change the serting of the pi to reserved ip and had no issiues "yet" if it returns ill let you guys know, i still connect to winscp via the username, if the issue returns ill use the ip of the pi on winscp as the username to see what happens...

Oh nevermind. It looks like the default setting is false anyway. Not sure why I was confused into thinking it was on by default.

# Smoothens picture with bilinear filtering. Should be disabled if using pixel shaders. video_smooth = "false"

Well, I tested it out with RetroArch framerate being displayed and it runs at a solid 59.9 to 60.0 fps. This is also after I updated my /boot/config.txt to use sdram_freq=500

Still doesn't quite look as good as when shaders are disabled but I am thinking this is about as good as its going to get.

Edit: I also sacrificed the curvature and tweaked my overlay bezel art to push it as fast as it could go with at least the zfast_standard shader for both Waku Waku 7 and Samurai Shodown 4 (the only games I have installed that demonstrate this issue to my knowledge)

@bogus Glad you got it solved.

@lostless Thanks dude for verifying ! Now back to gaming!! ;-)

@jayram1408 Swearing / personal insults on the forum as your first post. Well done.

@whistle05 you get this if you dont have an internet connection to the pi

@alturis said in EmulationStation issue with marquee.png:

Or potentially an issue with how the ComicBook theme is setting up the marquee element. Will have to look at that later tonight.

Nah looks pretty simple and straightforward to me.

<image name="md_marquee"> <pos>0.74 0.086</pos> <maxSize>0.26 0.1</maxSize> <origin>0.5 0.5</origin> </image>

Though now I am wondering if is something with the handling of the "maxSize" feature of ES that is at play here.

@mitu Sorry for the delay in getting back to you and thank you for posting. Between work and being new to this, it took me a bit to get to the runcommand log (used winscp). I am positive I am using lr-mame2003, made sure to check through each step/popup and downloaded the romsets labeled as being 0.78. Checking the file, I do see where it says I am missing files and the game won't run. I thought that was weird seeing as the game worked previously the other day. (tmnt: the arcade game, (tmnt2po and tmnt couldn't get turtles in time working as its upside down), my friend owns the actual machine though it's since become a large paperweight, this pi is for him) However, I did delete and try to add the games again though usb drive (with light) and it still didn't work. I decided to try uploading the same games through winscp....and now tmnt the arcade game works again no problem. Perhaps this is a usb or card issue or something else? Not sure why it would work one minute and not the next. Here's hoping these versions work for a while. Sorry if I wasted your time.

@xvo said in Can anyone help me, strange things happening at boot:

without ever using ssh again... :(

Changing the default password should be sufficient...

You could also just add them to the gamelist entries for each game?

@jackknife18846 You could try expanding the filesystem if the card has more unused space.

@mitu thank you, appreciate the insight

@sano In fact ;)

But well ... I know nobody who does not like MegaMan aka RockMan
He's 31 years old ;) And I spent hours of gaming with the first GameBoy title ;) So I'm not a fan of the first hour .... but well it's never to late to for the little blue hero.

btw: Sorry for bombing this thread - the TS may forgive me...

@spudsmctoole just so you know, you can put cycles as first thing under [autoexec] and remove the [cpu]. All the settings can be done this way. They just have to be before you mount the drives.

@lollo1410ap You need to provide more information about your set-up and what you are launching as detailed when you registered on the forum - Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

I'm in agreement here, kios/kid mode would be perfect.

Just hope none of them enter the konami code.
