@xallius 3rd party images aren't supported on the forums, especially ones that come pre-loaded with game ROMS.

I'd suggest going back to the seller for support, or install the official image from the Retropie site and then the community will be able to assist you.

@leanne No problem. The unallocated space will actually be expanded on first boot of Retropie and brought into use. The image you download is compressed you see, so that there is not wasted empty space in it.

Thanks both !! Often it's so simple

@vodkanakas Thanks for sharing your solution for others who might encounter the same problem. 👍

If I'm not mistaked, the Pi Zero W is already clocked at 1Ghz, so your overclock will not considerably improve the system's performance.
For GBA, use lr-gpsp or gpsp as emulators, for SNES, use pisnes as emulator - this should get perform better on the Pi Zero W.

@jamrom2 said in Issues with Mausberry shutdown script.:

Have a safe and prosperous New Year!

Glad you sorted it out and thank you for the nice words - Happy New Year to you too !

@oli said in Updated : New to retropie - no audio on Retropie using new Rasberry Pi 400:

The background music is only playing in the main menu.

RetroPie doesn't include any background music - are you using a RetroPie standard install image ? Please open a new topic and add your info, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@bluestang On the Amiberry front, worried I'd have to go off and compile the binary and fiddle around with symlinks and that kind of thing. Turns out, just reinstalling automatically builds the SDL2 version.

Screen tearing I was seeing in Redream seems to be eliminated! Gonna test out Flycast some more too to see if performance has improved.

@hsus I doubt it, and why update if everything works as you would like? I haven’t updated my builds in a year or so. Too afraid some game (especially arcade) may just stop working.

@unknown that makes sense. you would have had the 64-bit kernel with the 32-bit userland, confusing things.

So, i am not sure what happened. Like i said i made a hotkey for the fast forward button in the retroarch settings. After running games from other systems i was running into all kinds of problems, and had to restore my image, thanks for the input.

@nakynaw

First, try to update the ir-pcsx-rearmed core and check again . instructions:https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/.

If after the update the problem is still there, follow this steps:

To disable the multitap:

Open the RetroArch menu while the game is running and from the options, enable the Show other input settings.
After that, restart the game and open again the RetroArch menu and from the options set to off the Mutitap1 and Multitap2 and you are ready.

Got it fixed. Had to use a keyboard to accept the "Yes or No" prompt when on other versions I have been able to put the PS4 controller into pairing mode and then reconnected it, select it, and then hit "Yes or No". Working now, Thank you!

@dreamcastkid Found it! This works completely. It was a MOTD thing. This will get rid of all of that text.

Use command touch ~/.hushlogin

then navigate to the login script
sudo nano /etc/pam.d/login script
#hashtag out the following:
session optional pam_lastlog.so
session optional pam_motd.so motd=/run/motd.dynamic
session optional pam_motd.so noupdate

then navigate to the autologin.conf
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/getty@tty1.service.d/autologin.conf
Change ExecStart located at [Service] from:
ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --autologin pi --noclear %I $TERM
To:
ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --skip-login --noclear --noissue --login-options "-f pi" %I $TERM

Now I am completely rid of any startup text.

@ndk1979 please provide the information as requested here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

As you can see, people are trying to help but having to guess at how you've configured your setup and how you're running the game, and with what emulator. If you can give us more information it will enable us to assist better.

@mitu ok let me try

@markyh444 yeah I got it for £80 from [removed]a few years ago, but looking now it doesn't seem to be running online anymore, anyway this'll be enough info for now, thanks dudes ! Happy New year again!

@dochartaigh said in "Core Override" for Shader NOT saving + changes Video settings on its own:

• Arcade/Mame/FBNeo, to change 3-4 player settings: For "in-game system menu options" (i.e. hold Start), those should automatically save a .fs file I'll be on the lookout for. ------ ones where I have to go into (Select+X) RetroArch Menu > Options to change the 3/4-player settings I'll try the "Create game-options file" which should safe a .opt file in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/config/fbneo)

like i said, you don't need to create a game-options file in lr-fbneo if these are dipswitch settings, as it will create unique entries for every game in the global /all/retroarch-core-options.cfg, so just change the setting and it will save automatically.

@lostless got it thanks. Just wanted to make sure because it didnt matter to me prior to doing the cabinet with the PS3 controllers and stick...Happy New Year!
