Memory card has failed, yep.

For roms, no internet doesn't mean no network, so if you have a switch or a router (or event with a direct cable) you will be able to copy roms through CIFS, and do SSH.
Moreover, you can simply transfer roms with a USB stick too, see here : https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Transferring-Roms

Regarding updates, there is indeed no simple way to update retropie without an internet connection.

And don't forget your cell phone Wifi Access Point feature ;)

@slaycj23 Please read the https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first page. We cannot support 3rd party images, especially ones sold with RetroPie - and possibly with ROMs - by all sorts of greedy scammers.

@spud11 said in Mapping a keypress to a joystick (Fuse/others):

My runcommand-onstart file is now 113Kb in size, but I've found it has to be devoted purely to xboxdrv and case $2. If I try to add anything else to it with more general application like trying to invoke a bash script unrelated to xboxdrv, runcommand-onstart just doesn't work.

I run 26 systems that make use of xboxdrv, sometimes having several dozen exceptions made for individual games. I've managed to keep the size of my runcommand-onstart.sh down to 39.9k by offloading the execution of xboxdrv itself to separate scripts. All the if/then stuff is still there, but once the conditions are met, it launches an outside script with the xboxdrv command. That may help to alleviate your situation.

@alturis

To my knowledge you can't, but I haven't put a lots of time into experimenting either. Acceleration, for example, seems to only affect the max speed. If you continue to test and find out something different, I'd be very interested.

Replying for posterity -- there needs to be a patch applied to mame2010 for high score functionality to work. There is a github issue with a link to the patch: https://github.com/libretro/mame2010-libretro/issues/11

with the same set up but Xin-Mo dual arcade joysticks, having updated Amiberry to the latest version and followed the instructions on setting the correct 'path

Yes I haven't solved it and no one has even replied with any info. I guess it will have to wait until it is not hard coded, but gets the config from Emulation Station's virtual gamepad.

@yefet Reconfigure your controller.

@ectoone Popping them in the ROMS folder worked an absolute treat. Thanks so much :)

IT WORKed on a download manager

@john0007 said in SD card use. Download retropie:

@dankcushions thanks. So can someone help me how can I download the retropie. It's giving me problems on network error and corrupted when download.

What error(s) did it give you exactly? What browser or other software did you do the download with?

Just to update, I opted to instead go with Sanwa sticks as they are the perfect size with the same screw holes and apparently the top of the line based on the recommendation of those in the know.

@zerojay lol, here's a pointless story:

About 12 years ago I was just messing around, trying to build Gentoo on a (very) old Acer laptop. Well, something went wrong and the build froze. These laptops had an actual pot wheel type volume control on the side, and apparently the Acer engineers hadn't thought "hey, how about some actual circuitry that sets a sane limit on the volume?"

The volume control was set to maximum and the build failing caused a continuous tone from PC beeper, which was amplified through the built-in speakers . People in surrounding offices actually started evacuating because they thought it was the fire alarm. Yes, it was that loud.

(I just realised that evacuating can have two meanings, both of which are valid in this case.)

I haven’t seen any changes in over a year either. There’s not any settings that may change, only the paths to the emulators and that is rather stable.

If you add new emulators however you will need to refer to the ETC location and copy/ paste the new system info into your OPT override.

@mitu Turned out to be much simpler than that. This line:

<extension>.uae</extension>

Should have read ADF instead of UAE. All sorted now, excellent user-friendly emu :)

@baviaannl Maybe the youngster came back and re-mapped the buttons by mistake :).

@paf said in Verification error when writing RetroPie on SD card:

AFAIK

Verification errors tend to mean fake or bad cards. Here is my order:

Format the card - SDFormatter

This is important and dont forget that some cards are not compatible with the pi. I have formatted other ways before and have found that success is hit and miss. This tends to work every time for me.

Download the retropie image for your chosen device either zero etc or 2/3 and unzip it to reveal the iso. If using Etcher - you do not need to unzip - have you tried this?

Using Win32disk imager, browse to the image and click write making sure that the correct drive letter is selected.

Boot. A solid red means fail. If your lights start blinking then look at these meanings

This is fast process. I have never had an issue. I use Sandisk cards 16-128GB and their own cradle - class 10 though, I find class 4 glitches for more intensive tasks. I have also used various usb sd card cradles. Can you describe your exact operations? Do you do this order?

The MAME 0.78 debugger code may not actually be functional in the MAME 2003 core. Someone else may know that for sure.

If you haven't, I'd suggest that you try the hacked ROM with the original MAME 0.78 software before trying to set up lr-mame2003 in order to have a baseline.

In case anyone else stumbles across this. The issue appears to be resolved with the latest update. I updated from source today and my mouse cursor is functional and visable now in lr-vice.
