@Jaapdaniels1984 nevermind, found out i missed some symbols wichs when retrned the system is again not detected... darn i don't understand why it fails to see my machine's name...

@ND Thanks for using my Vine to demonstrate. I was using the Pi2 at the time I filmed the Tobal2 Vine (English patched version btw). And I recall that this was using unfiltered textures. But it ran fantastic given the fact that the game itself ran in Hi-Res and 60hz.

I just upgraded to a Pi3 courtesy of the missus and so was quite surprised to see your video running the game slow on Pi3. But glad to see it's been sorted so I'm keen to play this again soon. 😀

oh ok , i did some search here aswell but could not find any similar advise

i just use the default ones.
sorry i am quite new to retropie :)

tought it was install and have fun kind of thing

It's all in the wiki should you wish to read it...

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

we have wiki pages for all these systems.

... 1) https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Running-ROMs-from-a-USB-drive 2) http://mardell.me/blog/how-to-load-roms-from-a-usb-drive-on-retropie/. Both links had about the same steps

no they don't. 1) says to not edit your es_system.cfg file, but 2) exclusively says that. they're entirely different approaches. we only recommend method 1).

doing some of hybrid of both methods will break everything. you need to reverse everything you've done and start again.

My bad ...

I had to activate multitap in retroarch. It's explained here : https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Playstation-1#multitap-3-8-player

Works great now !

@MrWilliam932 you can set different controllers to different emulators. Check the link on my signature.

@Dominus Canceled that. I hope I figured it out. I guess Mame2003 configs are in the Roms folder in case anyone else gets there.

Thanks for all your help though guys!

@herb_fargus What do you mean??

@cif140
I've set this up using the buttons on a logitec s-150 usb sound card+amp+speakers. To the pi, it registers as two devices a sound card, and a HID keyboard.
Anyways, I used triggerhappy (or its deamon: thd) to listen to specific keypresses (it has a mode to just show the presses it detects, so you can find out easily depending on your HW).
This then triggers one of three scripts for volume up, down or mute toggle.
These scripts first perform the alsa command, then play a sound to reflect the current sound volume.

This all starts at system startup, and is completely independent from RetroArch.

I can post the scripts if you're interested, and when I'm back at a proper computer.

Yea I was wracking my brain on it. I didn't DO anything to make it stop working. The only thing I can think of is maybe I somehow corrupted the settings when I was trying to get the Atari800 emulator working. Either that, or the Duke Nukem 3D port (which is awesome that it runs, but I can't get the mouse/keyboard combo to work right with it. It's either too sensitive or not enough). By replacing the new configs with working old ones, I think it just fixed itself, although erasing and recreate the various config files might have had something to do with it to.

Heh that's great news! Will it work with the runcommand menus as well, or just the retropie-setup menus? In either case, that's a superb improvement! :)

It'll work just fine as a keyboard is a keyboard.

@fefemae you can use any usb keyboard.
