ahhh, just realised i'm using ir-fba for alcon as it doesn't work in ir-fba-next - sorry about that i totally forgot (i'm also using retropie 3.7 fyi).

so it looks like its not going to be possible??

What is in /tmp/runcommand.log after launch ?

you can check the compatibility lists, but lr-mame2003 has decent compatibility vs speed for the RPI3 (and lr-fba-next)

bad guide - you should mount the usb over the existing roms folder. symlinking it may also work (or do a bind mount from existing location).

Changing all the paths in es_systems.cfg is a bad idea.

you need to make sure you mount the drive so that the user pi can write them also. can use uid=1000,guid=1000 mount options for example.

The coco emulator is a coco 1/2 emulator, and doesn't support the coco 3 functions.
The image you are using requires a 512k coco3.

I think we need a little more info before info before we can help you. How are you connecting to the Pi and stuff like that.

Thanks you two. Honestly, you guys are a big help.

@PJROUSE Did you create the file mentioned in the Wiki?

think this is the solution :-)

I do see your point on why it doesn't make sense. I had to read through it a few times. I didn't know it was still an outstanding bug, maybe when it's squashed it will make proper sense. I am using an IPAC as input. It's the only input I have connected but when I go into Input Configuration it shows 5 devices detected though. I was assuming since I am loading drivers for 4 controllers as default through the RetroPie Setup--Option 829 (Xbox / Xbox 360 gamepad driver) and one IPAC are the makeup of the 5 devices I hope.

It's been a whole lot of years but I originally went to school for programming and mainly worked with the wordy COBOL, RPG, Fortran and a bit of C for doing simple conversions of data. Basically I would read comma, space or whatever delimited data into a structure with a subscript, rearrange the data and save it back out. Then import it into shipping systems like UPS, FedEx. Basically it was names, addresses, city, state, etc. I can follow a bit or least some of it makes sense.

@Keoky said in Daphne Dragons Lair no sound:

@Riverstorm I used my old DL1+2, Space Ace dvds to unlock the files in daphne-Pc. Worked fine with all DVDs. Everything works on the PC. Then I copied the files to my RP3 without the dat so that it will be newly initialized in daphne-pie. DL2, Space Ace no problems. DL1 sound stops after pressing play.

It sounds like you did it perfect. I am stumped as I used Daphne for Dragon's Lair 2. I already had a good HD blu-ray rip of Dragon's Lair and Space Ace and the sound is working good. I use the 20th anniversary edition 3 box set if needed with Daphne as they don't officially support blu-ray rips they are ok with running them from command line.

P.s: did somebody managed to start badlands or Road Blaster yet? I know that the wiki says that they are not working in the moment. Any luck?

The games I have tested and work so far:

Dragon's Lair
Dargon's Lair 2
Space Ace
Cobra Command
M.A.C.H. 3
Super Don Quix-ote

Here's a great link with how to link different ROM sets (i.e. - use Dragon's Lair Enhanced 2.1 with the same files/tile set to save a whole lot of space).

@GadgetJax said in Issues with Sega CD Ram Cartridge feature:

I can't seem to get GenesisPlusGX to work at all. I have the correct BIOS, but all I get when I boot it up is a blank screen. That makes two problems. Ugh.

Remember Bios names are different from Picodrive and GenesisPlusGX, they are also case sensitive.

@Riverstorm Here's my post with screenshots on getting the best vectors out of AdvanceMAME.

Thanks Caver a bunch, heading that way now to read up on vector gaming! :)

@TwoGuidosGaming

No worries! You will have a similar thing with games like Joust, Sinistar, Robotron, etc - you can use F2 (service mode) to get past these. I just soft reset to proceed as service mode is not mapped to my PiCade. Most things like this are covered in the above link.

Cheers

You're absolutely right, all cases solved by replacing the rom file with a good one. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks, I've wired in a shutdown button and a button to change the audio from the 3.5mm jack (goes to speaker) when playing on the 10.1" screen I've put in the case to HDMI when plugged into an external monitor. Going to put a couple of backup SD cards in the case for when/if something goes wrong. I like the idea of the psu pico but it would mean changing my pi case to make room and I also can't spend any more money on this!
