@dodonpachi Interesting! I'll have a play at some point. Thank you.

When I first started with this, just having it playable was the aim!

@sleve_mcdichael @mitu @YFZdude Thank you guys for all your kindly help, check this out:

I don't have a skyscraper folder inside /opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper folder:

Thats a little weird, but then I saw the las post from @sleve_mcdichael about execute the command with "./" and worked like a charm:

pi@retropie:/opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper $ ./Skyscraper -p atari2600 -s screenscraper --cache report:missing=all ------------------------------------------- Running Skyscraper v3.6.16 by Lars Muldjord ------------------------------------------- Platform: 'atari2600' Scraping module: 'screenscraper' Input folder: '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/atari2600' Game list folder: '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/atari2600' Covers folder: '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/atari2600/covers' Screenshots folder: '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/atari2600/screenshots' Wheels folder: '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/atari2600/wheels' Marquees folder: '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/atari2600/marquees' Cache folder: 'cache/atari2600' Fetching limits for user 'NIGHTKILLER05', just a sec...

Thank you my friends !!!!

@jb1486 Nope! It would require some rewiring of the actual LED's and adding an LED controller to make this work. The DR controller does not have the required functionality unfortunately.
In the end I bought the ipac ultimate controller and a load of RGB buttons to upgrade my CP.

@sirhenrythe5th can´t tell exactly, but I did nt notice any performance differences between Pi2scart and composite.

The latest appimage seems to boot games as well. But gamepad config is broken unless you edit some files.

@mitu thanks a lot. <3 you save my project.

works fine, as I am a windows user, I hardly know the linux commands, with your tips I managed to create the necessary folders and permissions.

@itsmelos

When you write the RetroPie image to the SD card, it is creating two partitions.
The first is a boot partition in FAT32 filesystem that is about 250MB as you have already seen.
The second is a GNU/Linux partition in the ext filesystem. Windows will not see this unless you install special software. But that is okay, we really don't need Windows to see it.

As soon as you are done writing the image to the card, just stop and don't let Windows format anything. Insert the card into your Pi 4 and start it up.

@sleve_mcdichael that worked!

@theink
Can you share the source file of your instruction manual for your arcade ?

Thx in advance

@nightm0de said in Steam link. Cant find python 3 dev package.:

sudo dkpg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update

In my case, I use:

sudo dpkg --configure -a sudo apt update

@jolasvenn Post the contents of your config.txt file.

@manuel_pieper have you checked your restrictor plate under the joystick? If its adjustable, maybe its in the 4 way profile instead of the 8 way?

Booted up on sd-card only and found a huge pile of cache files from skyscraper. Purged it and that fixed the issue.

@sirhenrythe5th ahh sorry about that. I must have missed that part. Thank you!

I solved the problem. It was easy. An update from the lr-Atari800 emulator helped.

@accio-brain

The forum has a search option !
