Thanks for all the help guys, decided after experimenting to just stick with horizontal as it displays both pretty well. Here's a wee video of it in action, hope it's ok to share here.

@dankcushions
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.
