@teller
Right on teller, thanks so much! I was able to get Atari 5200 and vectrex up and running with mess!

I'm curious what systems you have been able to get working? I tried coleco but I can't get anything to start.

One last question if I may. Any idea how to get vectrex overlays to display?

Thanks again for your help!

if you have mapped to keyboard, you will have to either change it so one is mapped to enter, or just use a small wireless keyboard for configuring etc.

This question has had me thinking all afternoon, as it could easily come up while traveling. I was thinking that there must be a way to do this without the forethought to install 'Lynx' ahead of time. After a bit of searching, I found the following at:
https://superuser.com/questions/132392/using-command-line-to-connect-to-a-wireless-network-with-an-http-login

You will have to look once at the source of the login form to find out the names of the user and password fields. As the authentication redirect all pages, use any URL to get that source: curl http://www.google.com > login.html For example, you'll find: <form method="POST" action="http://my-public-provider.com/agree.php"> <input type="checkbox" name="agree" value="yes">I agree <input type="submit" name="push" value="Send"> </form> Then you can build your curl command to post your form information: curl -d "agree=yes&push=Send" http://my-public-provider.com/agree.php

@tfpHumorBlog yes I have actually, it's because the joy2key script is configured to use input of js0 by default but my controller was js1
So make sure your joystick is js0 input

I hadn't read the thread in detail, but just checked the site now. Had I seen that before I probably wouldn't have removed the ban.

If you want to be part of the forum/community, I suggest you stop distributing RetroPie with "10,000 games" to your customers.

They are identical

Thanks! It fixed the issue.
But somehow my SNES/NES and Master System scrapes are gone.... no images, not text.

game boy + gba is still there... very strange!

Had to remove your account as it was still sending out notifications.

Great news guys its up and running thank you very much for all your help and knowledge now its time for the dreamcast.

thanks

No, not currently something that is supported.

When you say "shoulder" buttons do you mean "trigger" buttons? Trigger buttons are the back left & right buttons that kinda look like gun triggers. The front left & right buttons like what's on the SNES controller are shoulder buttons (I actually think they are called "bumper" buttons on the 360 controller).

The Xboxdrv doesn't work with the latest kernel so you can downgrade your kernel to get it to work.

The xpad driver has a special trigger patch that fixes those left and right trigger buttons to work with EmulationStation but breaks support for Kodi.

@CaelThunderwing I updated the firmware and I have setup the controller in both regular mode and the xinput mode. I have both modes working for es and libetro cores. I'm trying to map the values of jstest and evtest to the keymaps for kodi.

Put the post as "Solved" plz ;D

ufff, what about to use a 64 gbs SD card?

Anyway maybe you could try to copy and paste files with putty or WinSCP, care, you will need to be root, you will see all files that samba doesnt show up

@suprjami great thanks, this will help me a lot.

@dankcushions Great dude. I was working on something similar, I have about 50 configs done, but with artwork on the sides also(for verticals on horizontal). Wow 1500, you must have seperated verticals and wrote a bat file? And yes, I will use these for my long list lol, great place to start. What would be the easiest way to match these file names to my rom files names to seperate? I need like something that will remove all roms that dont have the same name or something. Somekind of match prog

@obsidianspider said in Boot Problems with Pi 3:

Running a Fan from GPIO can cause issues as they tend to draw quite a bit of current. If you have a spare SD card, try using that to see if it works before you reformat your existing SD card.

Its a really tiny fan, like the smallest you can buy, smaller than a quarter.

Anyway, I tried a spare sd card and put the newest retropie image on it with the fan and led plugged in and booted up fine, still does the text then splash then text again then into emulation station but quickly and with no issues. Never use to see the text twice, only once before the splash screen, must be new?

I guess my other sd card is corrupt somehow now.

@MennoSteenwijk said in Best raspberry pie for retropie:

After installing Retropie on my Raspberry pie 1 I encounterd some issues in the speed of the pie while trying to play for example Mario Kart N64

On the wiki, it says:
Note that you need a Raspberry Pi 2 if you want any decent N64 performance and even then it is hit and miss.
