@martincrocenzi said in Segmentation Fault Screen:

@zoop did you reboot the raspberry? when exactly do you get that screen? Can you detail the text or message you receive? Any capture or pic? Which Raspberry do you have? Which sd card? Any other specs? Whta do you mean with too aggressive?

Thanks!

I used a kit I ordered from Amazon for my PI setup. The details may be found here, including the details on the SD card: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LWURJMI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Pi Model or other hardware: PI 3 Model B
Power Supply used: 5V/2.5A Power supply charger for Raspberry 3B
RetroPie Version Used (3.6, 3.8.1, 4.01 etc.. - do not write latest): 4.1
Built From: Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website

The overclock settings I am using without issues are (credit YouTube vid where I found them):

Stable settings for me:

gpu_mem=400
arm_freq=1400
over_voltage=6
sdram_freq=500
core_freq=500
gpu_freq=400

When I bumped the arm_freq up to 1450 I received the aforementioned error. Resolving the issue on my end was as simple as modifying my config.txt to scale back the arm_freq to 1400 again and powering the system off then back on again. To my great relief everything just worked once the setting had been changed back to a stable configuration.

I do not 100% remember how the screen looked with the error. It may have just been a single line reading segmentation fault. All I remember for sure is there was a 'segmentation fault error' on the screen and I figured it had to be my OC settings. I just had to hope I had not corrupted my image or something..

Apologies for the delayed response, I hope you find what you're looking for and are able to resolve the issue. Best luck!

I have converted FF7 to PBP but it just keeps sending me back to the game list every time

@zkdr said in Hotkey for RetroArch Quick Menu (in game menu):

I've yet to be able to figure out how to swap A + B only for the retroarch menu.

Do you mean swap OK and Cancel buttons?

This config is "hidden" in Settings >> Input >> Menu Swap OK & Cancel Buttons.

Got it sorted ,I plugged the raspberry pi3 into my HD TV and the screen was able the handle the default 1920x1080 resolution.Then went into Kodi settings and set the resolution to the nearest to 1280x1024 which was 1280x720.
Another leason learned on the Pi.

Thanks guys for all your help and support.

@edmaul69 I changed the file permissions and it still didnt work. I read somewhere that the configs folder @ /RetroPie/configs/n64 is just a shortcut to /opt/RetroPie/configs/n64 so I changed that one too but no luck. The system changes it back to what it decides is best and none of my changes stick

So, I purchased a mini HDMI to a standard HDMI cable, and replaced the cable and adapter I had (the amazon basics mini HDMI to female full size HDMI adapter). Everything works perfect now. Thanks everyone!!

I'm new to this stuff myself, and it is happening to me also.
I mistakenly did a kernal update while trying to navigate around, and 20 minutes later I had no way to exit apps like Retroarch and only tested with GBA roms, but both I attempted would not work right for my NES30 Pro. I'm going to have to start over also. I hope they fix this issue soon. I've had to unplug twice because of this, and going to learn SSH before trying any more games.

I just ran through the first level of 'Virtual Boy Wario Land' using red/blue, red/cyan, red/green and green/magenta glasses and I couldn't personally tell a difference in the quality of the 3D effect. However, it seemed to me that the one that should be avoided the most would be red/green as it renders everything in in yellow tones and after extended play sessions, that will likely disrupt the ability to perceive color in the real world for a good ten minutes to half an hour afterwards in a big way.

BUMP

This is the only emulator I've had issues with – yes I get sound stuttering or dropping on the games I've played. I figured it was just too hard for the Pi (though that I would think might happen with the larger Playstation games), but I will look into this tweak.

Cheers Guys, thanks for the info.

I have the same issue with a PS4 controller. I tried three they where all connected to bluetooth. All have spasm while in game and also when it rests in the retropie menu. I can't find any solution online. I have two 8bitdo SFC30 controller and the work without a problem.

@cerealspiller delete the retroarch.cfg. Then reinstall the psx emulator to get your retroarch.cfg back.

@mediamogul heyyyy so its this kit right here

using xbox 360 controllers (they connected real easy)
no error messages just a straight freeze every 3 races or so. Tried 1 player nfl blitz its just extremely choppy. Using the guide off this website the video they supply. Using Retro pie 4.1

After further reading I'm almost definite that it's down to the Sandisk Ultra card not being fast enough for cd games. I only have 50 roms in each format at the moment and three in mega cd , so it's not a space issue.

Would a SanDisk Extreme SD card be up to the job, or are there other SD cards anyone would recommend?

Thanks.

@dunnieboy i dont have my pi to tell everything exact. After you set your controllers up back at the main menu i believe you go into the bottom option. If you go in there you can set save on exit and you can save your joystick config in there too. I think its in there where the option to set the menu button to the controller too.

@bluecaka69 glad you got it working. 👍🏻

@groviar

I guess I'll need to experiment.

Your best source of information on this will be on the actual Hatari information pages, as it's the same emulator running here. If you get it going, report back and either you or I can add it to the RetroPie wiki.

@Danorak1981 I actually made my own google doc of the steps necessary without game links.

If you need help still hit me up.
