Thanks to all that offered suggestions. Now solved issue by reinstalling OSX el capitian. All up and running

@weeple2000
I suggest you to try this:

RGUI (usually select+x)
Settings
Input
Input User 2 Binds
User 2 Device Index

And change it.

@DidYaNailer AFAIK RetroPie doesn't run on Android. But there's a hope! You can install RetroArch on it! ;-)
With some tweaks you can get a fancy look.

You need a class 10 rating Micro SD card for effective read/write access and reliability, so maybe a SanDisk micro SDXC - UHS-I around 64 to 128GB.

sorry guys im stupid since i updated i didnt have wifi on LOL

In case anybody else runs into the same issue, setting mupen64plus_audio=0 in /opt/retropie/configs/all/autoconf.cfg seems to fix it.

Welcome to the emulation scene! You might want to check where you got the file from and what type of dump (release) it was. TOSEC and Redump are some of the more popular versions of the disc based emulation images you may have.

You need to fine out what extensions are being used within the zipped file. CUE/BIN or ISO etc. This will determine what configurations you may possibly need to make, or whether you can simply drop the image into the roms folder and run it.

@jay81uk had to press the back button on the page because your link doesnt actually go to the controller you bought. Looks legit. But i have never seen a bootleg

@punky you should download wold4sdl from retropie setup. Fullscreen and far faster than dosbox.

Yeah retroarch isnt very good for mouse support most of the emulators dot work but dosbox does for pc dos games

@BuZz This seemed to have worked! Thanks Buzz!

If any devs interested in investigating, here is the faulty savestate for Gran Tourismo 2 [E]
Savestate was made in the regular in-game menu, where you could go to races or your garage etc

@edmaul69 said in ANSWERED: Button remapping (general & specific questions):

@polishzeus at least you chose a controller worthy of being "the one"

It was love at first sight 😀

Hi,

I've got config files for UAE4ALL...
When you select a disk in the GUI and make some settings. There is a button "save config for this game".
It works. You can find these config files here : /opt/retropie/emulators/uae4all/conf/
These are .conf files. and when you open them with nano, are very text-readable...
There is no button on the GUI to load these files though... When you select the same disk file(s) (tried it with a single disk game) all the other config options you made before are loaded.

My problem (or question) lies with the fact if it is possible to boot the UAE4ALL emulator with a config file as a parameter...

Kind regards.

@cdoss Start a new topic (and read this first https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first)

Ok Guys... today building went fine \o/ I trust the root cause was overheating. In fact we suffered from an impressive heatwave over there and like me my pi didn't enjoy it!!! I do confirm: I've changed nothing compare to yesterday (despite my low disk space, power plug and "lower" overclock settings :p)

I feel better now first because the air temperature is way more acceptable for a human being (and for the pi). Second because my setup is not at fault and I know that I got an up to date and proper raspbian version. All good news. Thanks a lot for the support and sorry for that post, useless in fact :(
