@che_don_john Ahh..gotcha..I was just curious. I see alot of people transferring via usb and have problems. So much easier using ssh. I was one of them when I first got my pi as I watched a youtube vid with no knowledge of ssh, and I found it took forever to transfer games via usb..lol . Glad you got it sorted !

I'm pretty sure Minecraft for Pi only utilizes keyboard and mouse. This is an old version and I don't believe it's been worked on in years, it's just there for fun.

If you need help we would need the system information from this link in order to know what you are working with.

@snes_you Looks like a Metal Slug rip off - at least the sound and audio. I'd suggest to give that a try.

So I flashed a new SD Card (8gb) with the zero image from retropie website. I made the relevant changes to config.txt to make the audio work.

I'm still dissapointed that GBA games don't work without sound lagg. Does anybody have GBA working perfectly on pi zero? If so what are your specs?

@ingramlw said in pi 3 keeps resarting and says end kernal panic not synccing unknown block:

no emu keept restarting

I don't understand what's that suppose to mean, but please start with a fresh image written to the SD card and see if it works.

Hi, after many and many tests, I finally found the jstest binary (onto rasbpian) and saw the parasites: random commands.

It was probably the USB converter (Dragonfire) that is faulty. I will receive and test a new one as soon as possible and will tell you if the parasites would disapear.

For the moment, I used an USB converter found in a little joypad (Gamepad USB) and all is works fine.

See you.

@thedatacereal If you're looking to create per-core configurations, the easiest is to do them in the RetroArch gui, then save them with Save Core Overrides. They'll be saved into the .config folder and they'll contain only the changed configuration options, much easier to read and maintain.

@mediamogul thank you, that answers my question

@petervcook That might have been too early, i did that myself just recently. Glad to hear that it was helpful though.

@edmaul69 said in PCEngine cd - can they be in cue/iso format?:

@qbical just so you know. As long as you dont change the name or caps/lowercase of the cue file, you can edit the inside of the cue file and naming of the bin/iso without having to restart emulationstation. The cue file and iso/bin files names dont have to match.

right on! thank you

@cutcutthejacket Part of that readme link requests you post the following information so it is easier to troubleshoot :

Pi Model or other hardware: (B, B+, 2 B, 3, X86 PC etc..)
Power Supply used: (If using a Pi)
RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest):
Built From: (Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website, Berryboot, or on top of existing OS etc.. - please provide the filename of any image used)
USB Devices connected:
Controller used:
Error messages received:
Log found in /dev/shm/runcommand.log (if relevant):
Guide used: (Mention if you followed a guide)
File: (File with issue - with FULL path)
Emulator: (Name of emulator - if applicable)
Attachment of config files: (PLEASE USE PASTEBIN.COM FOR LARGE LOGS)
How to replicate the problem:

@dudleydes @edmaul69

That's great, thanks both. I think this post has definitely made it clear on how to change the difficulty as well as other settings.

I think this thread can be marked as resolved.

Thanks again.

@haemogoblin said in Rigging reset and shutdown buttons:

I think I now have the power button in the bag, using a Pimoroni on/off shim.

I've written a small tutorial for the OnOff SHIM here

Oh actually I did a mistake...
For some reasons, I thought all mames were the same emulators and used a shared folders for roms (like genesis).
So mame4all wasn't showing up since there was no rom in...

I put the shooting games in the mame4all folder, now I have 2 mame menus on retropie.

The mouse is working with this games on Mame4all.

This sounds like it belongs in Help & Support.

Also, please read and post the details requested here:

Once you create your usb with roms to copy(not as a supplemental drive) you can technically use it over and over on any Retropie system as it only copies from the USB to the sd card/drive.

Thank you Mitu, and Herb. I have ordered a wifi dongle.

That gamepad seems to already have a configuration file, see here:
https://github.com/xbmc/peripheral.joystick/blob/Krypton/peripheral.joystick/resources/buttonmaps/xml/linux/usb_gamepad____________10b_2a.xml
Although it has only the game.controller.snes profile defined. This profiles are mainly for the RetroPlayer engine/emulators, to play games inside Kodi, which will only be officially available in Kodi 18. So try what TheDataCereal said, which is basically manual mapping one of this profiles in the Kodi interface, I also recommend using the default one.

PS1: The gamepad configuration examples on RetroPie wiki are outdated, they are for Kodi < 17. The new ones have the format like the one posted above. In your case you should be able to do everything in the Kodi user interface, no need to create/edit the xml file.
PS2: Yes, it can have spaces after the name.

Hi, thanks for reply.
The game you are linking to is Fishermans's Bait 1, this game works great on my retropie setup.
But i guess you have a good hint there.
I am sure there is a way to map the buttons for Fisherman's Bait 2 also.

I have a usb hub..powered four port. It has a separate power supply. It's a Pluggable brand has not failed me one bit. Always remember the pi has enough power to run just itself in most cases. USB sticks have leds on them..so the more leds you plug in the more power draw. (No not saying that LEDS are draining and power hungry..etc ect.) Just saying the pi powers itself..if it has to share it will not be happy.

And not all usb hubs are the same. Yo want to make sure that the hub will NOT back-power into the pi..thus causing damage or death of your pi
