@hooperre Hi. I've finally got to test it. I'm using RetroPie 4.4.1 and it is working for me but I am using only one PS4 Wireless Controller and nothing else.

Just for the sake of completeness, I've put my mupen64plus.cfg and InputAutoCfg.ini below. Thanks for your help.

Did you quit out of Emulationstation with F4 before doing the scraping?

Should be fixed now

@aclx-ks said in RetroPie Installation Transfer:

Is it safe to copy the entire RetroPie folder at /home/RetroPie?

You didn't mentioned which version are you running currently, but I think it should be safe. One thing I wouldn't copy over would be the roms/retropie subfolder, since that's managed by the RetroPie itself and would be created anyway by the installer.

@mitu just popping in to report that I tested the HORI controller. it's lovely. definitely noticed a slightly better response. with a few tweaks even punch out is very doable. the form factor is excellent as well.

Even the current version of MAME requires a good number of samples but Donkey Kong was fully emulated (no samples required) with version 0.116 and mame2014 is based off of version 0.159 so that's kind of interesting.

@mitu - I see your posts everywhere and have read several useful tips and information. Thanks.

@race Navigate to /opt/retropie/libretrocores, create a new folder named lr-dosbox, put the dosbox-libretro.so file into it, then add this line to /opt/retropie/configs/pc/emulators.cfg:

lr-dosbox = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-dosbox/dosbox_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/pc/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"

[Assuming you've already installed regular DOSbox here.]

@mitu Oke thanks for the tip i do this in the evening

@kwjamesblond said in Reicast not running games.:

@gomisensei
Does Reicast even work on the retropie? What are the original names for the bios and flash files? Is there a best way to copy the files over, I just copied them in Ubuntu?
I got ecco the dolphin to work but not sonic

if you got ecco to work, then its almost definitely a problem with the sonic files, the bios is fine.

@mitu no

I do enjoy a good Pilsner but I meant couldn’t. Also, all of the 2 dragonrise buttons are in identical ports.

ok i gave up im not using pigrrl 2 controller anymore

I think your problem is that all controllers (both the arcade and the N64) have the same name and Vendor/Model IDs, making them appear as the same controller to the system.
When you configure your N64 controller(s), the arcade buttons configuration is overwritten - since they appear the same - and thus your configuration is broken.
Here's a topic discussing this - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/6264/you-have-to-use-identical-controllers-for-multiplayer-games-please-prove-me-wrong - but it's not the only topic with this problem.

@mitu
Ok Thanks! my second stick should arrive any day. Will test it out then

@corbidorbi said in Need help making GB screen smaller:

Of course that's buried in a bazillion other lines in the .CFG.

That's because you enabled 'Config Save on Exit' and all the configurations have been dumped in this file. You shouldn't do that, core options are saved by default (in a separate file) and for other options you use 'Save Core Override'.

Replace the retroarch.cfg file contents you have now in the gb folder with

input_remapping_directory = "/opt/retropie/configs/gb/" #include "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg"

After that, start a game and use the RGUI to change the Video Settings, but use the Save Core Override option this time. Re-start the game and see if the changes persist.

Hint: you don't need to download the file from the RetroPie system, just use Samba Share from your Finder to open the \\retropie\configs\gb folder and edit the file directly.

@almulder Yeah, its working now. @cyperghost found a fix for the 3B+.

https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/19248/retroflag-snes-case/22

My overnight copying session fixed the problem. I simply moved everything into the retropie-mount directory myself. The problem was it was expecting something in there and was finding nothing. Apparently retropie keeps track of the actual drive UUID and THAT is what it looks for on a mount.

Now I have a 256gb game capacity to fill up. :)
