Not really, I’ve already rewired from the power input to the switch board, and modified the base a bit.

@Rincewind I had the same problem and after a lot of trying this is what I do :

connect a keyboard enter the game go to controls , change something exit, start a new name. then I discovered a eduke32.log file in home/pi, copy this path that appear inside:

/home/pi/.config/eduke32/ and paste it in winscp (.config is a hidden folder)
3) there is your cfg file.

Hope it helps, I still have to tweak this files to make the game work propperly.

ok thank you

@mattrixk I am running the latest retropie so that's all good but I did find what was causing the issue.

@mitu thank you very much for your help you were right it was the file path. Not an error on my part as all the paths were set correctly with / and not \ but it turns out that when making a theme in ES portable on the pc the file paths to all the images and such were slightly off.

Instead of an _Inc folder I'm weird and have my images and such in a folder called art. There is 1 art folder in the main theme folder for the main theme images and such then there is 1 art folder in each of the system folders for each consoles images.

In retropie the file path required for the theme to be able to find the images correctly is just ./art/image.png as it only needs to look directly into the art folder within that system folder.

It seems that with ES portable that the file path for some reason is ./.. /art/image.png which I presume is effectively telling ES portable to go back a folder to look for the images?

All I needed to do in the end was change it from ./../art/image.png to ./art/image.png and its all working great now.

I've been playing with the themes for the past few days and I think im almost finishedwith my theme now and I'm working on a much better one too. Might have to make a custom img to upload I've recently acquired just under 20k games across 48 platforms, going to take a while to scrape! Lol.

Bsnes has been updated in the last year (version 106 is currently available) and is now much lighter.
Could you activate for raspberry? thank you

thank you. it's ok.

I can connect to ubuntu with the IP and my passeword in Winscp. not need a IP in Retropie.

@Fried_Chicken There are two big PC Scrappers: Universal XML Scrapper and Skraper.

Both make the same thing: Scrap your systems and make a xml file.

I tried with Universal XML Scrapper but it gives me random errors, not completing the entire proccess. I recommend Skraper. Look up for videos on how to use it but it is very intuitive.

Also, Skraper will scrap your roms by checking their hash on ScreenScraper.fr. If it doesn't match it will look for the name, which is unreliable, and games will not be scrapped properly. So you'll need clean rom dumps.

There are Romsets which have a clean dump of every rom for many systems and then you can sort them into regions using batch files, so in that way the scrapping and the hash check will work, but as for the rules I won't mention where to find that.

If you find it and you're going to download any romset remember to only use and play with the roms that you legally own, I'm not responsible in that matter.

Thank!

Hi, firstly, the thing of DragonRise Controller is weird, I have agamepad and is also recognizable as a DragonRise, but I guess it happens when the controller s not officil. Second, arcade joysticks (The ones you bought) are not analog, they are 8-way sticks. Anyway, there are a few N64 games that work with the pad, like Kirby one.

The RetroPie PI image uses the Raspbian Lite distribution as its base, so if your code can run on Raspbian, then it's highly possible it will also run on a RetroPie image.

@mitu Thank you so much again. This is why RP community is second to no one!

Finally I made it... with no luck. I don't want to bother you. I will assume custom collections won't work for me.

Thanks!!

Unfortunately there isn't a centralized list by model of system - most of the system/platforms supported found in the docs are supported, some of them are specific for PC (Gamecube, Wii, PS2 for instance) and are marked as such.

Please add more details about your setup by adding the info specified in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first, especially the parts about controllers and emulator used.

@DUBlajes

This is the way i used to get it to work. Maybe you can get it working as well. I must warn you that this is a long time ago since i last tried Brutal Doom with Zdoom on my RetroPie.

Go to opt/retropie/configs/ports folder and create a new folder called brutaldoom.
Copy the emulators.cfg file and the zdoom.ini file from the doom folder in the opt/retropie/configs/doom to the brutaldoom config folder. (Notice this might need sudo command in terminal)

Paste this into the new zdoom.ini file in the brutaldoom config folder so that it will replace the original text.

Sorry for the long post. Hope this helps. :-)

I had similar bug couple of times but each time it was gone after reboot
pi3b+ retropie 4.4.4

try removing it from the case and remove all cables and the sd card. Connect everything back up and boot up without the case and make sure it's not a problem with the snespi power supply. Make sure the switches are in the right position, I think there's a switch for power inside the case, and another one for safe shutdown, which requires additional script to work, turn this to "off" so that you do the manual shutdown method.

Ah. Figures it would be the one core I'm most interested in testing on the ODroid too. :) Oh well, at least it's a known issue and it'll get resolved eventually. Thanks!

Tried another cable anyways, no luck. This is a first for me.
