@rott42 said in Cant get 2 games running, killer instinct and wind jammers:

@adambegood KI 1&2 run for me on lr-mame2003, but graphically compromised, slow and lag. I use pi4.

Fair enough - I thought there was certainly some issue with them.

@mitu I use the rpi3 official image updated to 4.7.11. I haven't added anything extra that wasn't included in that image audio wise.

Please add more details about your setup, as asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@lostless

Thats it! I do know know why I kept getting redirected to the other page. Thank you very much!

@mitu I downloaded the emulationstation for translate and compile it, what line i must change in what file? Thanks.

@sleve_mcdichael

Default will skip roms that have any piece of data from this source, and “only missing” will skip roms that have any piece of data from any source?

Yes, I had actually forgotten that point, it's quite an important distinction.

And you're welcome. Have fun with it!

@ts-x Great idea on dropping in on him. I might just do that. I have a wired number pad that I tried to use plugged into the USB port on my Mayflash (which would also avoid two long wires), but that didn't work. It's not a real USB port apparently. However, it would also be seen as another input device.

This issue is NUTS and across the whole retro industry. Someone needs to do something. Every joystick should come with the ability to ID itself as unique. If say, 8bitdo suddenly started offering controllers that all could send out unique IDs it would be a SHORT wait for someone in Retroarch and others to jump in and support that. That manufacturer would sell a ton of product and force everyone else to adopt that option as it would be SO brain-dead obvious. How has this NOT happened yet???

@hexxur i know there is away to get retroarch installed on it. and i know that it have a doom port built in.
how it works with WADS i dont know

Well, actually after some more research, as of the current version, the 0.11, there si no way to do this, but only when restarting a game already launched, instructions are in the official github project page here.

Please add more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

For the input part - can you get a verbose log from the emulator and see what it reports ?

@jamrom2 What's the name of this script? I thought I found it, but Mobile Gamepad isn't it. heheh

And given that my jzintv looks like crap, what do you recommend to get it right?

@mitu said in runcommand launch art and Skyscraper images:

Are you sure you're modifying the right file ? The file in the $HOME/Retropie-Setup is not used at runtime, it's just the source, when installed it's copied in /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand - which is used to for launching.

Aha, yes I was modifying the one in $HOME. I’ll try the one in /opt tomorrow and see if that does the trick.

Edit: I snuck a peek while closing up for the night and that was it, thanks for the tip! Now I wonder if there’s a way to get the transparent background to display as black instead of that light grey...

@ioortropie

Based on your previous answers it sounds like PulseAudio is not starting on its own.

Try systemctl --user enable pulseaudio in the terminal, and reboot.

If you still have no audio please post the output of pacmd list-sinks.

@bram279b What mitu said plus... you should just be able to swap joystick ports with the controller. It's built into the base mapping if you're using a SNES style controller.

If not, it should be your "A" button, whatever that is. That should toggle.

Try it with an easier game like Bruce Lee. Use the virtual keyboard as well as the controller to make sure you have it setup correctly.

The Virtual Keyboard in lr-vice64 also has a button to press to toggle joysticks,

@mitu Yea tbh I'm not sure what it uses, I just thought I would take a chance incase anyone knew.

@mitu ah, wonderful! I will give it a shot. Thanks for the swift reply :)

@alphabetapie discussed here: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Nintendo-64/#emulators-mupen64plus-lr-mupen64plus-lr-mupen64plus-next

note also that i believe lr-mupen64plus has a bug that makes it crash after ~30 mins.

Will research. Thanks for the info.

@theautisticgamer The reason the Past music works is because it's PCM audio (part of the game code), whereas the rest of the game's music is RedBook audio (meaning it's streamed from the CD). Check your .cue file in Notepad or some other text editor, and make sure that your files are named exactly as they appear in the .cue file. It might require the audio be in .WAV format instead of .MP3 format. And if you're trying to run the game from the .iso file, use the .cue file.

@dankcushions It finished while I was at work. Any other updates I should do?!?!
I will remember for next time though... Binary, not source...
