Oh, so you mean we have to wait for a PrBoom update and it is not that i'm messing around with the worng files/options?

By the way, I didn't know that PrBoom Plus existed at all, suppousedly it can load .pk3 mods just like ZDoom does, I don't know if it's compatible with Brutal Doom and the likes? Wonder if it would be too hard to port to work with the Pi3?

Got it. Thanks!

I'd recommend using the configuration editor to manage your configs:
https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Configuration-Editor

You may want to check your system specific retroarch file isnt holding a mass of non-required configs now, there is usually just 4 or 5 lines in there.
A bit like this:

you can stream them with moonlight/limelight. Never tried it / don't have required hardware.

I will try a fresh install tomorrow but something in me says it's a 4.0.2 issue... The beta I ran work perfectly on all consoles I put on there with just installing gamecon (which in v4 automatically installs db9 drivers directly if i'm correct?) and this command 'sudo sh -c 'echo "gamecon_gpio_rpi" >> /etc/modules && echo "options gamecon_gpio_rpi map=0,0,2,0,0,0" > /etc/modprobe.d/gamecon.conf && reboot'' which then was enough to setup the controller on the next boot and play on all mentioned consoles

Thanks for responding Buzz....ended up being a craptastic power supply.

Great! Glad you got this working correctly!

Yes, what you put between <theme> and </theme> in /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg refers to the corresponding directory in /etc/emulationstation/themes/<CURRENT THEME>/. There is also a theme.xml file in there that it uses to know what graphics to show.

Here's a tutorial to help you create your own ES theme:
https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Creating-Your-Own-EmulationStation-Theme

having same problem with libretro/retroarch, if i could just get keyboard control, i'd be ok. Noticed if you turn off the ps4 controller (hold ps button for 10 seconds) keyboard control works again...

I was adding them incorrectly. I took the syntax examples from retroarch.cfg which only defines keyboard keys. To add joystick buttons, _btn must be appended as seen below.

input_screenshot_btn = "0" input_pause_toggle_btn = "2"

Try my approach combined with Luetzels' here:
https://luetzels.raspiblog.com/?p=1870

Install the patched Bluez from the blog (overwriting default raspbian bluez – do not uninstall it first, just overwrite). Then Shanwan sixad. Reboot, then its working like a boss..

Try this first.

@johnnypanic Hey, any specifics on the build or fresh install steps that worked for you? Im going mad here trying to get this scraper to work. Originally tired on my original build but no joy. Just re-imaged to the latest release, updated the startup script, setup the scraper via f4 command line (and updated it) yet when i go back into emulisation, no info or images on any of the roms.

I created a bug. It should be fixed if you update to the latest code.

@gunschlinger you are correct. Not sure how i missed that. Glad to see you are using them.

@DanC_1987 You need to install the ds4drv ps4 driver still.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ds4drv

Problem is.. without the driver, it says 1 gamepad detected.. but can't be configured. With the driver, 2 gamepads detected.. it configures in the "main menu" setup, and can then navigate through emulationstation... but then it's unresponsive in games.. "controller not configured" message after starting any game.

I've read that updating all binaries and scripts should fix it, but it didn't. I still have a controller that navigates through emulationstation, but completely unresponsive in games. Seriously frustrating.

@codinghorror said in Advmame emulator not showing up in RetroPie 4.0.2?:

(Is there a good reason not to use advmame? I prefer it for vector games and the like?)

We generally prefer RetroArch cores for their ease of configuration. lr-mame2003 and lr-fba-next are a good compromise between a large ROM set and nice performance on Pi 2 and Pi 3. It's also easy to find the ROMs, search Google for "mame2003 reference set" or "fba 0.2.97.38 reference set".

However, AdvMame is the only way to play vector games smoothly.

If you put ROMs in the mame-advmame directory and mame-libretro directory, you'll end up with two RetroPie menu entries called MAME which can be a bit confusing/messy. You can work around this by using the arcade directory for one type of ROM (say all your vector games in arcade and all other games in mame-libretro), or you can use a theme with different AdvMame/libretro-MAME header images.

@herb_fargus said in Request to remove pre-installed banned games from RetroPie:

@medienistik those games are banned in Germany? Interesting. Learn something new every day.

they are banned even in Russia. I have to change my ip that would be able to try them.

Yeah it would require some automation to make it more useful. Another issue I just thought of is it has issues with large datasets and takes a long time. So thousands of images might cause it to slow to a crawl.

@Patl Thanks!
