@GtBFilms this is the reason i decided to not scrape anything. I scraped the nes and every single game that was the first in a series got named as the second so i had it listed them like this:

Lolo 2
Lolo2
Lolo 3

Super mario bros 2
Super mario bros 2
Super mario bros 3

Plus there were other games scraped as the wrong game.

Many thanks for your reply, they have helped me a lot.

Thanks for the information :)

Replying to myself, incase anyone else has the same problem and stumbles across this post - this was a scraping issue, for some reason the scraper is no longer retrieving the correct information for Cannonball and I needed to edit the metadata manually. (Selected 'Space Engine' in Ports menu, pressed select to bring up Emulation Station menu which allowed me to Edit the Metadata for this entry)

ok i'll double check this tonight, but from memory I putted the right bios at the right place. I'll check the md5.

Thanks

It worked!!! @BuZz your a genius thank you sooo much!!

Have a great Christmas too!

you don't need to do any tweaks or changes from default to get nes/snes running at fullspeed. in fact, i would revert all as you may have created a problem if you solved your power issues.

audio distortion/sluggishness - we need specific examples. many nes games had audio distortion/sluggishness on the original hardware, which will be the same when it's emulated.

Turns out the upstream ppsspp site shows this networking for this game in particular to be not working.

@meleu yes

Modifying the autostart.sh worked

Never mind, worked the second time with no input no output security. Weird.

@dover19 note you don't have to do this manually - it can be changed from within RGUI when in a game.

@Bradyadams
Which configure file? The mupen configure "mupen64plus.cfg" or the autoconfig file "InputAutoCfg.ini"? I recently ran into same / similar. No matter how much I edited the mupen config controller sections no changes. Even if I set the controller to manual config but no luck. The global buttons like escape I could changes.

I then found an old auto config file that had info for keyboard already setup. I copied this into the config folder and was good to go. Reading the wiki it made it sound like the auto config should be generated when you first start retropie, but I am guessing if you only config keyboard it might not.

@Gusgmb does it happen on all emulators or just some? Are you sure you're using the libretro version? Also what's your config in RetroArch-joypads? Please format it properly as described on the read this first page

@Ikyrus You could use something like jslisten to monitor for inputs, and invoke a script to switch config files.

@d8thstar Just a thought. . .What about the possibility that you are modifying the gamelists while Emulation Station is running? Have you tried putting the file into your ROMs directory while ES is not running? Then starting up and seeing if it picks up the list?

Also, where exactly are you putting the XML file? Notes above have suggested "the ROMs folder" but for you, since you are mounting an external volume, that probably means /mnt/MAME106/roms/ right?

Ok, so reinstall with 4.1

removed the hash from in front of hdmi_drive2 (now that I can see the config file) and that seemed to do it. That berryboot was the main cause like you said @rbaker , I will say this though: the config file looks way different than a regular raspberry pi one. But Ill see about any other changes in another thread. Moral of the story is skip berry boot if you can.

I tried placing syscard3.pce in the same folder as the rest of the .pce, .bin, and .cue files. I'm still getting the same result. There is probably an issue with the commands I used to launch the emulator. I had to unzip my TG16 files because they were not loading when I left them in .zip format. Perhaps I should use the same commands I used for that emulator (/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch for the Executable and
-L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-beetle-pce-fast/medafen_pce_fast_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/pcengine/retroarch.cfg "[romfilename]" for the Command Arguments). I'm still scratching my head trying to figure this out :-(.

@Nwoodward yeah i havent had time to yet. I was too busy lately. Please do report it to them. If you post a link to the thread you post in i will probably comment when i get a chance too
