    Re: Problems running PC Engine/Turbo-CD games even with BIOS
    I realize this is 3 years after this post; but if anyone is still struggling to make CD games work, after trying again and again and downloading the syscard3.pce file from different sources, even though MD5 matched on all, just in case some were corrupt...I finally got it to work by placing the syscard3.pce file in the ROMS folder instead of BIOS. Then, in Emulationstation, I clicked on syscard3.pce, which shows up like a game, and it opened the CD interface. Clicked start, and it began gyrating but didn't fully open. Pressed select and start on my controller to back out and THEN was able to play CD games!

    BTW, don't know if this fix will work for emu running on Raspberry Pi. I didn't have issues playing CD games on my Pi 3. But this was the only way I could play PC Engine CD games running Retropie with my Linux Mint x86_64 computer.

    I know this is an old thread, but I figured out how to get this working using the GSPLUS emulator. You'll need to create a .gsp file for Flobynoid. I used the sd71 slot and followed the path to another version of the Flobynoid rom with a .po extension. I also used an apple2gs.rom1 when I picked the ROM file. It will run Flobynoid in GS Mode when you do this.

    Here is what my .gsp file looks like:

    g_joystick_scale_factor_y = 281

    As far as the BIOS roms go, I could never find the correct apple2.zip, so I copied the set of Apple II roms that were included in a build of Batocera I am currently using with my Pi5. I'm going to replace that with RetroPie once the experts here get around to creating a stable build, but I thought I'd share my solution here for those who want to try Flobynoid with GSPLUS.

    I have now gained new insights into the VSync problem, because it seems that the TV or the HDMI detection is really to blame. I just had my Raspberry Pi connected to my 13-year-old Panasonic 3D TV and the VSync option works exactly as it should. What I also noticed is that the screen modes are swapped in the video setup menu, which you can select when selecting a game before starting Amiberry via Retropie. On my old TV, the 50 Hz modes are first in the list and only then do the 60 Hz entries follow. On my Philips TV from 2014, it is the exact opposite, so that I have to set the correct mode every time I change TVs. However, it does not seem to take the 50 Hz modes into account at all or does not switch despite the selection and only runs at 60 Hz instead of 50 Hz, which I find very strange, because the TV is definitely capable of handling both refresh rates. This also works with all other emulators, whether with VICE (C64) or all RetroArch cores such as NES, SNES, Mega Drive, Arcade, etc. Just not with Amiberry, which I find very unfortunate. The Retropie team would probably have to release an update to detect the connected screen in the Amiga Setup Menu. I actually thought that HDMI screens were all standardized by now and the only explanation I can think of is that it has something to do with an error in the setup script for Amiga core.

    just started getting into pi's and command prompts and what not so i feel very green and dumb. thanks for the assist.

    You don't need to use the command line at all. Our docs explain everything, even in video form if you'd like to.

    @StonedEdge said in How to run RetroArch cores with DRI_PRIME=1?:

    Are you sure about that? I believe we now have "/dev/dri/card0" for NPU and "/dev/dri/card1" for GPU, and have to specify that explicitly… not sure if that’s getting mixed up somehow when launching retroarch.

    Yes. I think you're confusing some things here and your MESA/DRM libraries are most likely the issue here - not RetroArch.

    @Retrodade What kind of Repository do you use for "retropie-extra", this ?
    I think this works fine (but I haven't tested yet Philips CDI games):
    https://github.com/Exarkuniv/RetroPie-Extra

    But I tested it with many other emulators like:
    "AetherSX2 - PS2 Emulators" runs in 60Fps with my Pi5.
    "Sega Supermodel 3" runs very well with my Pi5.

    Well, I found a solution.
    I'll post it just in case anyone runs into my same problem.

    I started from scratch using Pi Imager again. This time tho, I've been using the super magic hidden shortcut Shit+Ctrl-X to bring up a hid option panel!
    Here I setup the wifi and the country. Then I flashed the sd.

    When you first run the system inserting the sd back on the Pi, you'll have no wifi again for some reason. The system suggests to set the country (again) in the rasp-config, just click ok, and lo and behold, this time it works.

    I could change the country to my zone, setup my wifi and access the Pi over the network connecting to \retropie

    bingo.

    Drastic doesn't work in Pi5. I suggest using lr-melonds from the RetroPie-Extra project, it is the best Ds emulator:

    all right, it was a silly one:

    #!/usr/bin/env bash rp_module_id="mcpi" rp_module_desc="mcpi-reborn" rp_module_licence="PROP" rp_module_section="exp" #rp_module_flags="!all videocore" function depends_mcpi() { getDepends xorg matchbox-window-manager } function install_bin_mcpi() { [[ -f "$md_inst/minecraft-pi" ]] && rm -rf "$md_inst/"* aptInstall minecraft-pi } function remove_mcpi() { aptRemove minecraft-pi } function configure_mcpi() { addPort "$md_id" "mcpi" "mcpi" "XINIT-WMC:/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/.data/minecraft-pi-reborn-client-2.5.3-arm64.AppImage --default" }

    Just needed to get rid of the filter flag.
    And by the way, all those intro setup windows can be skipped using the --default flag.

    Thank you!

    @Gnatrgaming Ps1 games must be unzipped otherwise, they will not appear in EmulationStation menu.

    I have a Raspberry Pi 4 running the latest version of Retropie

    Which is version ... ?

    [..] I deleted the Retroarch.cfg file and now NES and Snes won't allow me access in game to retroarch.

    That's never a good idea, since RetroArch would then create a default configuration for the system, which trumps the RetroPie configurations and leads to all sorts of errors.

    Any ideas on how to fix? Thanks in advance!

    Remove the retroarch.cfg file for the NES/SNES system then immediately re-install the NES/SNES emulators so that RetroPie will add the correct RetroArch configuration - otherwise you'll get into issues again when starting from a stock RetroArch configuration.

    @StuMcBill said in Can’t get NAOMI working?:

    I'm running on a Raspberry Pi 5 -

    For the Pi5, you need to run the '4k pages' linux kernel to prevent a few emulators crashing. Did you add kernel=kernel8.img to /boot/firmware/config.txt ? You also need to run the lr-flycast-dev core for full Naomi support, I'm not sure the original Flycast core has support for all Naomi games.

    That's worked a treat!

    Thanks for all your help.
