@mortosaur for best image quality - try darkplaces quake (h/w accelerated 3d) or lr-tyrquake for libretro core version of the original

@mediamogul the other user has no sound at all. But im sure it is something not actually related to zdoom itself

@Tibbetsni Look at the post above yours please - you need to open a new topic providing details of your setup - You may think the problem is the same, but it could be caused by completely different factors, and this topic is old.

@tribunal88 only by following progress on github etc.

Today I am very happy because I solved this issue. I just had to remove the case, plug in a new image, plug in the HDMI,and get the ip so I can configure it on my computer. Thank you all so much for helping me out.

@rbaker

I don't see how he is breaking the rules here. He wasn't asking where to get roms. He wasn't posting roms. All he asked is if it's possible alternate roms might work in his case when the one he has isn't playing. That's a reasonable question any newbie would ask and it isn't breaking any rules.

@marc.knuckle try getting multiple roms to test. Also put the bios zip in with the roms in the roms folder. (Just in case its looking for it there) Because the mame/fba roms get updated some of the roms might not be compatible if you dont have the correct version of rom with the version of fba/mame that is on the pi. So testing only one rom does you no good.

Turns out it still doesn't work ! :(

I thought it did since I used the alternate line AFTER I changed the shader using the Retroarch GUI. Now even if I delete the new line or change it, no change to the shader :(

Somehow, changing the shader through the Retroarch GUI does it, whatever is in the retroarch.cfg file.

Now what I'm thinking, could it be something to do with file permissions ? That shader line, does it tell the system to change another file properties and maybe it isn't able to do it because of file permission ?

I am thinking about this since I see other posts about file permission issues, requiring to do something like :

Sudo chown pi:pi /opt/retropie/configs/

Could that help ??? At work right now...

Try integer scaling in the retroarch menu (select-x).

So I found out that the problem was with automount. I umount my drive and mount it again but this time in /mnt folder. I shared that folder an transfer 25gb data on external storange. Then i reboot Raspberry pie and now nothing is working. Retropie boot in Shell and i can access it through SSH. After a reboot it displays shell and says: "A start job is running for dev-sdc1.device (time)". dev/sdc1 was my External HD. I needed to delete automount command from /etc/fstab in order to boot it.

@BuZz said in RetroArch (Pi) Save Slot Issue (always #0):

@zoop see my post above. You can't update automatically to include that fix currently. You need to wait until I update retroarch, eg for v1.4.2 - the module doesn't build the bleeding edge code anymore. I got fed up fixing things over and over again.

Yeah, sounds like a reasonable approach. Thanks for the update. I will eagerly anticipate 1.4.2 :)

I had this problem last weekend after updating everything to the last version. It seems in some emulators de audio driver was changed to alsathread. I changed it back to sdl2 and the audio was back on the emulators. I did have sound in Emulationstation but aftering entering an emulator it was gone.

Access retroarch configuratie with select+x and check the drivers in settings.

Hope it helps.

Check the retroarch.cfg files of faulty emulators : https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/retroarch-configuration .

I have figured it out. I had to download 7z1604 and unecm. I also had cuemakerdotnet previously downloaded. After some time I was able to convert my files to .bin and .cue.

The Metal Gear Solid .7z files I had to use each of them to finally create the correct files. For Syphon Filter 2 I downloaded new .7z files. When I ran the files through 7z1604 it created .bin and .cue files for me.

I tested Metal Gear Solid and the game loaded. Played just a the first part and it worked fine, both graphics and audio. Syphon Filter 2 worked perfect too.

@tmak glad it's working!

@ayeye sorry. Brain glitch. Ignore my edit (if you saw it). On RPI3 2010 snes9x is default for accuracy. (I wrote mame2003 - I have too many topics in brain)

Yeah it's not a big deal at all, was just reporting it if it was something new. Thanks for all the work!

@joelw23 awesome. It sucks when you are relying on something as important as that and its defective.

@tubiroman when you fixed the slashes you added all four missing / slashes correct? are you getting an error? i would remove the savefile directory you added. it will automatically put it in the roms folder. then when you start up the game it should see your game save. although i need to test in a week when i get 3000 miles away from here where all my stuff is being mailed to. i think i might have had an issue when i was trying to save resident evil 2. i havent played the playstation much so i cant completely remember.
