If any devs interested in investigating, here is the faulty savestate for Gran Tourismo 2 [E]
Savestate was made in the regular in-game menu, where you could go to races or your garage etc

@edmaul69 said in ANSWERED: Button remapping (general & specific questions):

@polishzeus at least you chose a controller worthy of being "the one"

It was love at first sight 😀

Hi,

I've got config files for UAE4ALL...
When you select a disk in the GUI and make some settings. There is a button "save config for this game".
It works. You can find these config files here : /opt/retropie/emulators/uae4all/conf/
These are .conf files. and when you open them with nano, are very text-readable...
There is no button on the GUI to load these files though... When you select the same disk file(s) (tried it with a single disk game) all the other config options you made before are loaded.

My problem (or question) lies with the fact if it is possible to boot the UAE4ALL emulator with a config file as a parameter...

Kind regards.

@cdoss Start a new topic (and read this first https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first)

Ok Guys... today building went fine \o/ I trust the root cause was overheating. In fact we suffered from an impressive heatwave over there and like me my pi didn't enjoy it!!! I do confirm: I've changed nothing compare to yesterday (despite my low disk space, power plug and "lower" overclock settings :p)

I feel better now first because the air temperature is way more acceptable for a human being (and for the pi). Second because my setup is not at fault and I know that I got an up to date and proper raspbian version. All good news. Thanks a lot for the support and sorry for that post, useless in fact :(

Ah, that sorted it! Thanks for the reply. :)

Yes, using Win32DiskImager will make a copy of the entire card. If you move it to a larger card you will need to choose to resize the image when you write it back. That option is under the raspi-config section.

Hey man... type this into a google search box "complete MAME 0.78 roms"... then click on the the first result. It should be what you need. :-)

Yes, while you are in emulation station, you can hit the start button on your controller (I'm assuming here that your controller is setup correctly) then select "quit" which will load the next menu with several options, the first of which should be "restart emulation station"... select that and when ES restarts, your ROMs lists should be refreshed. :-)

@purehippo said in Neo Geo Setup:

@rbaker How can i tell if i have the correct neogeo.zip? Also how do i tell if the roms are correct? Do i need the UNIBIOS for lr-fba-next to work right? I dont believe i have gotten this file.

There is no way to tell from a single file in my experience, you are in trial and error mode. It's best to locate and download a full set from one of the many sources out there on the web and start from there. A full set could be anywhere from 2GB to 50GB depending on the version. Best get a 0.78 set to begin with as that will work with lr-mame-2003

I've bought this one : http://www.futuremax.eu/nl/impact-soft-dancemat-pc-usb-dansmat-van-positive.html
Tried it using my pi (model 3) and retropie 4.0. ES immediately recognized it and after configuring the button's , it worked like a charm on DDR and DDR Konamix on the psx emulator.

I haven't noticed any delay and the inputs work nicely

Happy Dancin'

@Floob It's nano editor way to say "this line continues" :-)

Are you using RetroPie 4?
It looks like you have updated some keys for the keyboard in your /all/retroarch.cfg file.
The defaults should be:
http://pastebin.com/raw/WrvnD9Gh

You can copy that to your file to test.

But it may well be the controller file that is having issues, can you post that on pastebin?
It should be in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/

This will also help:

Thank you for your answer.
What exactly are the problems with the current kernel there? Could you maybe point me to the relevant discussion?

I do confirm issue with the deletion of the kick roms is now gone (either via binary or source options). Yet I still having issue with the controls. I'll keep checking in the coming days to see if upstream got fixes. Though the binary option from RP doesn't help and I'm really puzzled by that.

I'll give another look soon. THANKS.

@edmaul69 said in DOSBox - saving? Write permissions...?:

@BuZz the problem i have with dosbox is you get a "disk is write protected" error if you dont have better permissions on the right files, but how can you tell which files are the save files that need more permissions or not? I agree with you that you dont want to do it with everything but in the case of dosbox i dont know any way around it. And games wont even run for me if i dont give more permissions to the .exe files.

I would need to see some example of a path to advise (showing the current permissions).
