@synack Thanks. Looks like I thought I was smarter than the initial setup and I didn't need to change anything. Got to go undo what I did.

Exactly - meant for it to add line breaks or go to the next line if it doesn't go over. I found the font size settings, but without it going to the next line a lot of info is still going offscreen.

@Patzfan by default images aren't distorted. borders are added where appropriate.

if you stretch to fill, yeah it'll stretch all games.

Weirdness. Out of the blue, it's working now.
Might have been an error at the server that's hosting all the stuff.

FYI
Other MIX Template is downloadable from the menu configuration.
You can create you own MIX template ( https://github.com/Universal-Rom-Tools/Universal-XML-Scraper/wiki/[TUTO]-Making-a-MIX-Template) And if you want PR them to the github repository ;)

@Cerealkiller You are asking for support with an illegal 3rd Party image. You are also posting links to the illegal 3rd party image which is in breach of the forum rules which you agreed to read when you signed up. For support with your image, you should consult the creator of it. Nobody on here will know anything about it. I looked at the page you downloaded it from and there are hundreds of comments. Many posters have commented that their controllers do not work. Dr Maxwell claims that he has "taken the best of the best" and made it better. Seems not to be the case. My advice is to use the correct image from this website and start again.

@vladdracul said in ResidualVM help:

I had the same problem, solved it by pressing button x while the game is loading (to launch the configuration options), and changing emulator from "residualvm" to "residualvm-software". I also changed the resolution and 640x480 in all other configurations.

Hey thanks! I'll give that a spin tomorrow, I totally gave up on it since I could never get it sorted.

@columboscoat school boy error on my part the joystick cable from the board was plugged in upside down,
Its now registering all axes 8-)

@BuZz I have a premade retropie in my raspberry pi zero, I use this one to play with 8/16 bit consoles and c64 emulators, with my raspberry pi 3 B i try to learn what are the things I can do, try which mame roms works and which not (without mess my primary retropie in raspberry pi zero), try to instal 3.5 lcd.....

@edmaul69 Ok awesome I'll try that!

It was working fine the last time I used it. Shut it down as normal now when I start it up it goes right to the command prompt with this error.

Oh I know you weren't and I thank you for the advise. You are correct, I will try and contact Floob or Kevin. I will try to reach out and in the meantime....going to just try it tomorrow. If it works, I will post my results to this post.

Glad you got it figured out :)

Yup no problem. I also feel like the guide should be more specific in stating the SSH and terminal spam problem, other than in the issues section that may not be noticed. I'm just not sure what section to state it in.

@dantropie yes, it's possible.

@dankcushions Not picking a fight, not in the slightest. As far as I am concerned I have done nothing wrong. I see people being referred to search engines all the time. If I had posted a direct link I would apologise and move on. Archivedotorg is nothing more than a repository. Referring people to it breaks none of the forum's rules as far as I, and others, are concerned.
Where is the dotuk link in any of my "non-conforming" posts?

@subz No worries man I appreciate you coming back to say you got it sorted. The forum is here for people to search first and foremost. Most people find a solution and then never come back, not caring about those that come behind them.
