@ReadyPlayaWon

Thank you for your advice ReadyPlayawon

I actually do already have the Dreamcast version loaded in my Pi , I just wanted to try the Naomi version due to I have never played the arcade version and sometimes there are little things here and there they may have changed or become different

Just something about the Arcade version games I enjoy better , possibly because the infinite amount of credits by coins possible , or the service menus to change the lives , difficulty and such .. I don't know for sure ... Call me weird I guess

I do enjoy your input and advice , Thank you for that

Maby this version on Flycast is a bit wonky and needs more configuration within the core itself by the developers

@retropieuser555

MAME 0.154 or more recent (for Bios)
Roms : Latest

To complete the machine setup with the infos above

emulators.cfg

lr-flycast = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-flycast/flycast_libretro.so </dev/null --config /opt/retropie/configs/naomi/retroarch.cfg %ROM%" default = "lr-flycast"

retroarch.cfg

# Settings made here will only override settings in the global retroarch.cfg if placed above the #include line input_remapping_directory = "/opt/retropie/configs/naomi/" #include "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg"

I've experienced this as well.

@sainerd You might have chosen the wrong forum to ask this question - this forum is for RetroPie related topics; this particular topic is about emulation of a memory card by a Playstation 1 emulator and transferring save data from a PS1 memory card to a file to be used by the emulator.

Disregard. I figured out the issue. I originally downloaded a Romset and it had a Gamelist included. So I guess if a gamelist is already in the rom folder, it ignores the one in config.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

correction:

File "/home/pi/RetroPie/splashscreens/video/pistation.mp4" not found.

not sure why a "space" appeared the initial log dump

Not sure if it solves your problem but I managed to get mouse working with lr-puae by bringing up the virtual keyboard and there is a button called J/M to switch between joystick and mouse.

@shavecat You already have a topic opened with this kind of problem and you've been given some advice there, please don't open another one - continue on your already existing topic.

I should note that I found out with Resident Evil 2 it is a 2 disc game, but depending which disc you start with depends on the character/story. You still need to swap with the other disc part way through. For this I have combined them both discs twice, so two PBP files, one going 1-2 and the other 2-1.

@UberLumby said in Adding roms directly:

@UberLumby never mind lubuntu is giving me permission denied when copying files to the retropie sd LOL

Linux distinguishes users by their user id (uid). If your uid on Lubuntu is different than that of pi on RetroPie (normally 1000), you won't have write access to it even if the username on both systems is the same, e.g. you made a pi user on Lubuntu just for that.

Vice versa, you would have full access if the usernames are different but the uids are equal, say "pi" on RetroPie and "lubuntu" on Lubuntu both had the uid 1000 on their systems.

You can see the uids and gid (group ids) of files and directories with the -n ("numeric ids") option of ls:

$ ls -n drwxr-xr-x 6 1000 1000 4096 Apr 28 02:38 RetroPie drwxr-xr-x 7 1000 1000 4096 Sep 19 19:01 RetroPie-Setup

If your uid and gid differ on RetroPie and Lubuntu, you could change the ownership of the directories only temporarily, and change them back after working with the files:

sudo chown -R lubuntu /media/lubuntu/retropie/home/pi/retropie/roms/dreamcast # use your username or uid for "lubuntu" here. # Do your stuff. sudo chown -R 1000 /media/lubuntu/retropie/home/pi/retropie/roms/dreamcast # Provided that pi's uid is 1000 on RetroPie

To me this is more "elegant" than the chmod way, as it doesn't mess with the files permissions. But this may be mere preference. And as with chmod, be sure to not to use it globally as it can mess up thinks equally bad. Use it only on directories where all files and subdirs have the same uid from the start.

Okay noted thanks! My rom folder IS gonna be okay I hope hahaha

If you're using a "pre-made" or "pre-loaded" system then you're going to have a REAL hard time finding anyone that can help you.

"Help" posted above :)

@IanDaemon said in Need to delete collections for systems i don't want:

Add ROM, see system. If there are no ROMs in the folder you won't see the system in the carousel.

P.S. Roms list in Carousel and Collections are 2 different things.

@samuelcole Your email is bouncing as you're over your email quota and you are subscribed to a category so the system is getting a lot of undelivered mail queuing up for you. Please fix this or I may need to disable your account. Thanks.

@cnoto Cool! Glad it worked for you. It's always nice when you can keep plugging away at those pesky little buggers.

@danrandall you might be better asking on the Retroarch forums dude. Don't think many people here have experience of hacked PS Classics, it's mainly Retropie and the underlying Raspbian OS on these forums.

Removing the curvature removes the morié pattern completely:

Which is a shame...I really love that curving for the old school feel, especially for the 2600 where there weren't any Trinitron sets yet!

@mitu I did remove all connected / paired devices several times. I did also reset ES_input file. Nothing worked. Always when I try to pair it, it gives me error message, that device is already registered. The same with udev.

A simple workaround is to delay the tvservice call in runcommand-onstart.sh , e.g.:

#!/bin/bash echo "starting emulator "$2 >&2 if [ "$2" == 'lr-fceumm' ]; then sleep 5 && tvservice --sdtvon="NTSC 4:3 P" & fi

@skr1b said in How to get rid of this weird boot screen?:

chmod + x rpi-eeprom-mgr

It probably needs to be

chmod +x rpi-eeprom-mgr

@WedgeStar said in 3 quarter black screen:

@YFZdude It is similar, it has also happened with games that don't have overlays, resetting works sometimes but not very often. sounds like I'll be just waiting for a update. Thanks for your Time

This stopped happening to me when I updated retropie setup to it's latest version "X.X.7" forgot the number but after you are on that version only use retroarch from BINARY and open retroarch in retropie setup.. make sure it is on version 1.8.8 and you shouldn't get this issue anymore.
