@JiggaWatt i dont think the f keys can be mapped to the controller in retroarch. You definitely want to map f1-f4 if you can for metal gear though. Maybe with joymap.

Yes I like that thanks. Now I just need to figure out how to turn my 128GB SDcard with the 32GB image back into a 128GB card seems to only see the 32GB. I did already try the extend storage option in the one menu.

@Dochartaigh via the configuration editor it can set them on a per core basis or in the global retroarch.cfg.

@mahcneto
I think for the music to work with the custom WAD fdoom, you'd need to also have a copy of the music in ~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/fdoom.
You should be able to make symbolic links to the MP3 (so you don't have to copy them to your custom WAD directory which will save space).

Try something like this:
ln -s ~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/*.mp3 ~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/fdoom/

Let me know if this works because I am theorizing :-)

Which Amiga emulator ?

(Also please provide actual RetroPie version, not "latest version").

Thanks, @BuZz . I'll keep that in mind if I mess with those folders again. =]

I tried to scrape my library yesterday and got an error 429 - "Too Many Request Responses".

I assume there's something wrong with the servers so it's not working as it should. I tried now and got the same results. Will wait until tomorrow and give it another go.

Make sure you have correct usb order:

and do the HEX edit the driver, it's a common issue with zero delay controller, the up and down detect as "3" isn't right:
HEX Edit the driver

@Leo said in PC (MS DOS) roms not showing:

@Dochartaigh Got what sorted? I downloaded the exact same games from the exact same site as before and now I have to load them onto retro pie instead of simply cut and pasting into the PC folder?

It IS copy and paste - and after a reboot you'll see all the folders you dropped into the roms/PC folder show-up in the DOSBox/MS-DOS menu item just like Nintendo or SNES or N64 ROMs show up in RetroPie. The only difference is you then have to go into these folders, and click on the DOS executable file (usually a .EXE or .BAT or sometimes a .COM) to launch the DOS game.

EXCEPT when the files you downloaded are installation files instead of the working game files. So just like if you had an old MS-DOS computer, and were using floppy disks, you would have to install the game off the floppies (or CD), to a folder on your hard drive. Then AFTER you do that, you can again reboot and go into the DOSBox/MS-DOS RetroPie menu item and launch the executable file to launch the game.

Another exception is games that use a CD rom along with the installed files on your hard drive. The most common example is probably Warcraft II. It needs files installed to your hard drive, AND a CD-ROM to be able to play the full game. This takes some coding ad you have to setup a little script file to mount the CD in DOSBox.

Also, you might be confusing this process with the RetroPie Ports. On those, I think you can simply drop the files into the directory and it'll just run. Most common examples are Doom, Quake, Duke Nukem 3D, and Wolfenstein 3d. These need to be installed from the optional packages in RetroPie setup BEFORE you drop those files into the correct folder. ScummVM is also another drag and drop platform on RetroPie that plays old DOS games which is very much drag and drop....so you have options.

Hello. I kicked the Kontron board away. i found an itx mini board in my stuff.
there is a 1 ghz cpu on it i put 512 md DDR ram on it but lakka Fails to start
(i think the vga is the reason) i could buy a pci nvidia or ati grafik Card
but i dont wont to investigate Money in this projekt.
i installed Windows xp on this machine and it runs fine.
i think i try to install Emulation Station. but this is not the whole Thing that
i wanted. i readed that Debian is installable on a usb stick and my question
is: starts it faster than Windows xp home? and can i pu emualtion Station
as an autorun like Windows?

Then again, people make portables inside an Altoids tin, so a Zero in a MegaDrive or Atari cartridge should work, it just depends on your goals for the build.

I can confirm that ballanux' fix solves my problem. Thx!!
Eagerly anticipating a more elegant and durable fix.

edit: Problem permanently fixed: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/1767

@edmaul69 Yes! such an option does not exist there. in Pico Drive all ok. the problem is not with retropie. problem with fresh core LR genesis plus.

@tymo614 RetroPie themes are stored on Github repos so you can download a zip, extract it and copy it to your USB stick. If you wish to restore the default Carbon theme, then you can download it at: https://github.com/RetroPie/es-theme-carbon

Once you have the theme on your USB stick, then place the es-theme-carbon-master folder in the /home/pi/.emulationstation/themesfolder on your pi. When you restart EmulationStation, the theme should be available under UI settings in the ES menu.

You can find many of the themes at the RetroPie Github page: https://github.com/RetroPie, themes repos begin es-theme-{name of theme}.

If you can't find a theme, then you can check the source here and google for it.

@BuZz said in How to uninstall a configured joystick / Kodi crash:

Looking at the log it looks as though your sony controller is still connected - Kodi does crash with ps3 controllers. Please format logs/code in code blocks when posting - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

I don't have sony controller a Sony controller or a PS3 controller.
I tried to remove/clear any configuration file that recall sony controller but with no success.

Anyway I solved with a clean installation of retropie. ES recognizes just my two controllers (logitech gamepad and keyboard), Kodi works great.
Thanks anyway
