Cool. Yeah I got into that link too while waiting for a reply.

So: Parse Gamelists Only: If on, it will only read the roms you have scraped, so if you add any new roms it will not look for them unless you turn this back off. it is off by default.

Damn, I must have touched it without noticing it. Thanks again.

Maybe its the systemd. This is what I have currently:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=122066
"noauto,x-systemd.automount" in fstab options

i think it is very hard to setup... the in emulator remap doesnt work...
i use nitho arcade joystik .. works great for all but uae4all have a strange issue...
i read about uae4all2-rpi-chips-0_5 but restarts, https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/1972/uae4all2-joystick-recommendation/8 for me doesn't works...
i don't want the moon..only play by joystick ... is there a roking workaround ?
thks

upgrade retropie-setup and remove the emulators you don't want from the gui.

Thanks @bizxaero good to know, will have a look.

@gomisensei it populates immediately after a load, but I guess only if the emulator
actually logs info to the console. what are you trying to load? please read this: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@Cole_48 Try without the ps4 controllers connected.

I just got my first Raspberry Pi and installed Retropie. I have loaded several Mame roms for mame-libretro and was feeling pretty cool. Then I accidentally switched the "TAB" to "None" to pull up the in game menu. Right as it was disappearing from the screen I screamed, "Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.......!", in a long drawn out slow motion type scream. I knew my only hope was a forum. As senkun said, thank you very much for coming back and updating the thread. I am new to command line stuff so knowing where it to look is a huge help, now I have to do some research and figure out the right commands. I have hope! Thanks again!

I think you'll need to start over as the code and optimizations for the ARM6 vs ARM7 are different.

The forum uses markdown - http://commonmark.org/help/ three backticks for code blocks or one for inline code.

You have retropie 3.4 I think, but the base OS is Raspbian Wheezy, so you will need a new image for Kodi 16 - upgrading from Wheezy is not recommended.

@BuZz

Ah, gotcha. Thought there was another alternative method. I mentioned doing that in the initial post.

Thanks.

If you delete the joystick cfg files, it would probably recreate them after you go into the RetroPie menu and configure inputs again.

After that, get to the terminal (press Esc on your keyboard), then type the following commands,

cd /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/ ls

There should only be a couple of files in there, look for something with logitech or rumblepad in the name and:

sudo nano YourFileNameHere.cfg

Look for these lines:

input_enable_hotkey_btn input_exit_emulator_btn

If you don't have those lines, add them somewhere towards the bottom.

Mine is listed as:

input_enable_hotkey_btn = "6" input_exit_emulator_btn = "7"

This means, my enable hotkey button (tells the Pi you're going to issue a command that isn't related to the game itself) is the "Select" key (or better yet the "Back" key because I'm using a Logitech F710)

And the command button is the "Start" key. Now I can hold down "Back" and press "Start" to get back to the main menu.

This page should be a little more descriptive if you need a hand: RetroPie Wiki -> Logitech controllers

@Riverstorm Ready Player One is an excellent read - fingers crossed that the movie adaptation can do it justice.
Unfortunately I was less enthralled with the author's second novel, Armada.

@BuZz I will try that out as soon as I get home from work. Thank you very much for looking into that and for such a speedy fix. You are awesome!

EDIT: Works like a charm now! Good to know that it wasn't something I was doing wrong. Thanks again!

If you have disabled the 8bitdo hack it should work without the fix. The fix was for 8bitdo with old firmware and hack on

@BuZz Just updated the firmware to stable 2.68 on the SNES30 controllers, disabled the hack, removed then repaired. Both are now working. Thanks.

@jefftheguyperson just FYI - I formatted your earlier post for you.

Sweet, thank you very much!
