@mitu I fixed it! There was a problem with the Wi-Fi links around the house, as i was in the back room. It appears that the keyboard has a problem, so that is probably fine as I connected a ps3 controller via Bluetooth. Thank you!

This has been accepted and merged on GlideN64 master branch, so the game should be fixed when updating from source on RetroPie setup.

@mitu that actually lit the lightbulb!

It turns out that the Xbox controller was the offender. Somehow it was messing with emulationstation when left on while rebooting. If I turn off the controller, everything comes back from restart no problem.

@windg Yeah i know Gex is also on PSX but i also wanted to try some other 3do games like Space Hulk, Star Control 2 and Wing Commander remake

@TPR

super helpful

I agree.

Seems we have to wait for improvemnets.

Maybe this will work for you

@aweeks007
Because every game needs a different amount to play the fmv, there's no real sweet spot to set it at. At the time I had it at 250, which gave it a good amount of rewind but clearly was too much for the games I mentioned. Some of them could only take about 50 which is not enough rewind.
The only solution I recommend is to turn it off when an fmv plays then turn it back on when it's over

Are both controller working properly when only one of them is connected ? What kind of controllers are you using ?
Can you add some more info about your setup, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first ? Fill in the info you know, especially the info about the controllers, Pi model (if it's the case) and emulator used.

@mitu Yeah, when I was searching the pin seem to suggest it was a speed issue, not a mount issue, which is why I overlooked it. So I figured I would just post anyway.

@OJ1977 said in Error creating SDL window!:

here is the config.txt information:
...

This is not the config.txt present on the RetroPie Pi4 image.
As I said before, the config.txt on the RetroPie image already has the lines:

... [pi4] # Enable DRM VC4 V3D driver on top of the dispmanx display stack dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d max_framebuffers=2

Judging from the extra lines added at the end, I assume you're either using a RetroFlag/3rd party modified image or some additional scripts from RetroFlag have been run and have modified the config.txt.

@Griz952 said in [Solved] Activate Second Controller:

Performance is not great, ...

You can give lzdoom (standalone Doom port) a try, it has controller support, though you may need a keyboard to set it up. Haven't used it with a controller, but it may have better performance.

That was easier than I thought - just needed a keyboard and a push in the right direction.

I have found this thread by search.
Apparently i have a similar issue but on my case i have put my current username and password to the right section but when try to launch skyscraper it's not be usage the corrent 20.000 limit but it's ever use "only" 10.000 so the login it's not work.

It's someone have a similar issue ?

EDIT
Sorry for editing this reply.. previously i have quoted a old reply.
Now my reply it's general :)

@mitu Spot on - I had to manually update the controls too (select the controller type in PCSX2), but now working completely as before - thanks so much for your help :)

@VintageVolts said in Daphne install on ubuntu 18.04 x86_64:

The RetroPie Setup on an x64 environment is blocked through the Setup program. Both Daphne and Hypseus are listed in red to indicate that they are 32-bit and cannot be installed through Setup.

Hypseus is not 'blocked', there's no flag to indicate is 32bit only. Not sure where you got the scriptmodule - what version of RetroPie-Setup are you using ?

Hi @rainkid ,
Seems like we bought the same hardware...
As suggested above, I have blacklisted the hid_dr module. which prevented me from seeing the error messages in the dmesg output. But still no luck with my Linux machine. However, everything works fine with Raspberry Pi on Retropie (Rasbian).

So my future move will be to get in touch with the Raspbian or the Debian community to understand a bit more.

I found this can be done with the -nogui parameter using the nightly build of pcsx2. Not sure if this applies to the version Retropie uses. I had a hard time finding this solution when searching the web.

In pcsx2 I set a hotkey for Shut Down Virtual Machine. With the -nogui parameter pcsx2 will exit when you press the shutdown hotkey.
