@retropieuser555 Superb - hopefully I've got a good one then!

@AdamBeGood Thanks! I didn’t know about that section. I will try it tonight!

@mitu Thank you, I'll check that path first and then I'll check on the image producer.

@mitu Yes, when I run "configure for two snes controllers", the players are reversed. So, going to configedit's "choose joypad order", it will be (1 0 2 3). The correct order is (0 1 2 3). It's just a minor annoyance, but the first time I did this a few years ago, I went as far as re-soldering my set up thinking I made a mistake. I do follow the schematic that's pictured in retropie-setup.

TheGamesDB site has a monthly quota for requests - I think 5000 (?). If you scraped a lot of games, then you probably went over that quota and your requests are ignored.
The scraper works fine - so there's not a issue with the site or EmulationStation.

Please add more info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@mitu I've got it working now, I had a typo in my file, I had missed out the / before dev/input/. Schoolboy error but sorted now. Many thanks for the pointers and your help. Working between my PC and the cabinet is quite tricky. I'll need to get SSH sorted out so I can do the edits from the PC direct.

@csocsoi - Thinking of installing RetroPie on Mint 20 myself today, any issues to report? Reasons to use older Mint rev?

Thanks

Likewise, I came across this issue having a test with this game today. Seems it's not fixed yet.

thank you!

lucky I took an image to restore from...

BTW - the issue appear with his repo is that if I install his GSplus, it forces an update from raspberry.org and deletes or renames(?) the opt/config folder!

I'll post there. thanks again for the info how to revert.

@simpleethat Ah yes you're right, I can't even achieve 70fps on Pokemon I don't think it would be able to run anywhere near 300fps. Thanks for the welcome!

@mitu Awesome, thanks!

Please post some details about your setup, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Post the verbose log when running an emulator to pastebin.com to take a look.

@HipHopBlond said in Xbox One bluetooth controller pairing issue:

@indecks same problems bro, the driver is kind of messed up I guess...

Just do like me: use your keyboard to configure your rpi (either ssh or physical), once done remove the keyboard (or ssh connection), connect your controllers with a USB cable, map your buttons, enjoy.

I would advise you to keep xpadneo on your system, in case they fix this bug soon, I still have hope. Unfortunately, there are always problems with retropie and xbox one bluetooth controllers :(

P.S.: I don't know if you have a long enough cable, I was lucky to buy 2 play and charge kits for the controllers long ago. The battery packs died ofcourse, but the cables are Microsoft Original, long and fit tight, they are perfect :)
Try to find only the cable somewhere online, (don't but the battery packs, they are crap and die fast anyway) I wouldn't bother with bluetooth for now.

I honestly think that the Xbox One S controller is the best out there, either for windows or for Rpi, but it has its flaws...

I gave up on using the Home button (i know ive done it before on another RetroPie installation), and just used the select button as the hot key. That seems to work fine after installing XPadNeo.

@cameronball That's how to connect it, I want to map it out in emulationsation.
Thanks for the vote through.

I found a workaround with the .srm files.

Open the game you want to use it on before copying over your saved data. Try to open a saved game. This creates a .srm file associated with the game file. Overwrite the .srm file with the desiredsave file.

I do not know why this works. It does though.

@barbudreadmon ding ding, thank you, I did not know about the parent rom. It works. Although I don't think this was on the NeoGeo system until 2 and 3 came out.
