to answer my own post, the dev of libretro-cap32 answered me on github. It's a simple matter of switching the virtual keyboard to gamepad emulation by using the SELECT key. Then you can use the virtual keyboard with the mouse. YEAH !

@obsidianspider Related topic - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/13485/new-fail-safe-for-updating/5 - you might have run into the same issue. See also https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/2159, which might have a workaround.

@redbatman right, maybe a ghost did those two bumps on your account above? that seems the most likely explanation.

it is my sworn duty to keep this forum ghost-free; i will have to issue a temporary ban to any possessed accounts if the rules are broken again.

Great!! Now works!!
Thank you!!

I advice you to read this through before posting https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first
Also you might not get much help here since you aren't using an official RetroPie Image

Ordered a processor that will support a 64 bit OS, and then I'll install a 64 bit version of Ubuntu. Will see if this fixes the issue...

@edmaul69 I´m pretty sure, I bought it at a large store, and when I record the retropie official image on it it works like a charm. Guess I´ll manually do the work then :) thank you for your reply my friend, wish you a nice week :)

I found a video of same problem of you go to this link below and go to min 3:10-3:15
He will look at the poster on the wall see all those graphical lines through the texture?
I have this and how do i fix?
I know its not normal my brother had pi and plays Eduke32 and he does not get these lines

@dankcushions said in Mupen64plus and z64 plugin:

retropie doesn't run on windows so i'm not sure why you're here :)

Well the windows port of EmulationStation seems to have been left behind a long time ago (save for the valiant efforts by @jdrassa, thanks a lot mate ), so this is the closest we poor windows users have to a home ;)

Thanks for the tip, will try it today. It's a pity there's no retroarch core addressing this, having all your config in the same place is a huge asset.

All links related to the project are Ok now as the offending files have been removed :)

@funkybunch if you can actually use it, it would be axis 4 +/- for left and right and axis 5 +/- for up and down.

The lightning bolt is a feature designed to detect cheap crap from China, when it shows up you should replace all cheap Chinese crap for something decent.

@grenade44 Did you ever figure this out?

Updated today and have the same issue.

@flagrant99 I doubt it has anything to do with the 4.3 upgrade, I've seen the same behavior before and there are a few posts in the forum asking the same thing.
The symlink support in Samba - the application that's responsible for the file sharing - has changed a long time ago due to the https://www.samba.org/samba/news/symlink_attack.html .
If you want to enable it again, then you'll need to modify the configuration file just like it's described here - https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/5120/how-do-you-make-samba-follow-symlink-outside-the-shared-path .

@alexck said in Auto starting a file:

if I already succeeded in starting the program and just want to know how to automatically start it at boot

This one.

If you already know what command to start the program you need, you only have to put the same command in /etc/rc.local file and add a & symbol in the end of the line.

I hope I am clear... ;-)

By the way, is english you native language? I'm not trying to make fun of you, this is not my native language... If you're able to speak portuguese, I am too. ;-)

@burgoyne Did you ever get any resolution to this issue? I had the same thing happen to me and I am also looking for a solution to use the same gamepad.

@donkey_on_fire said in Emulator not appearing in Retropie (ROMS added, Bios added, cfg file checked, etc):

Pre-made. Bought off eBay already set up (minus ROMS and two emulators I'm trying to install

They sold you retropie illegally https://retropie.org.uk/about/legal/ . You'll have to ask the seller for support as we have no idea what they have done to it.
