Thanks for the prompt reply, I am still tinkering with this and will try your suggestion.

Thanks!

I see this thread "SSH doesn't allow me to modify file"... https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=62443

...and now I wonder how I ever did this in the first place :)

I can certainly go back to making a few changes to config.txt on the Pi itself, but I thought I had figured out a way such as this to store a couple of versions of that config file (eg. one for a CRT and one for HDTV), and just swap them in and out like this without the typing.

just the promised report. I have successfully replaced the sdl2 librarys and installed pcsx2 via the Setupscript. Worked like a charm and i havent experienced any drawback currently. Good work

@Mr_Fitzinator

Here is a list of games that I installed http://bit.ly/2scXkoB and I got them from here http://bit.ly/2rg2DnJ

Why do most of my games crash or are not recognized?

How do I properly load and save control configurations?

How do I get the second set of controls to function?

How to I get the shortcuts, particularly start+select to exit games?

@Salomon said in x360 controller:

Hi, I have problem with my x360 controller beacuse in menu i can normally use it and in game i can play but I can't do select+start to get to menu. Do you have any ideas?

A couple questions, are you running this on an x86 build or a pi build?

I assume the emulators in question are libretro emulators?

The reason I ask is that I just redid my x86 build and am running into the exact same problem right now with a fresh install. Currently doing some of my own troubleshooting to figure it out, and I went to look here to see if anyone else was having the problem.

@sirkreuab you need to change ownership of your /opt/retropie/configs folder back to user pi. Go to the terminal (command line) and type

sudo chown -R pi:pi /opt/retropie/configs

Remember linux is case sensitive, so the R is in caps but nothing else

FIXED!

It was so simple to fix this. It appears that the es_systems.cfg file was not updating when the new emulator was installed, so I just had to delete the old one and it created a file on reboot.

You mean the DualShock 4 controller?

@Ecks custom themes should be placed at ~/.emulationstation/themes/CUSTOM_THEME_NAME/.

@gollem1 should add, retropie v4.0.2

seems that i can use the built in scraper to update each rom individually, but when i batch scrapes over 1000, it doesnt seem to show them... odd. the xml looks ok to me.

@axis_d where did you put those files?

I didn't realize I could use two different controllers simultaneously. This is awesome, thank you so much for your time!

@mediamogul Have fun, and let me know what you find out. I'll put a couple of bucks onto a bounty if it takes one more to get this smoothed out across the cores.

@mediamogul said in some MAME ROMs do not fully load using lr-mame2010 emulator:

0.139 MAME ROM

@mediamogul

I was not sure, so I deleted this ROM and downloaded a new one for the same game from this set. And it works!!!! Thank you!

@razz3r said in Would love some help, Thank You:

Just need the Emulators to Shows so I can load the games.

Things work bit differently here on Pie/Pi than, say, on a PC. You don't start an emu.exe and then load roms. First of all you need to put your roms into appropriate directories. Read this: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms/

Then reboot. Assuming you followed all the guides to the letter, you should now see names of the systems you transferred the roms for, with "X games available" underneath a name (that's on Emustation menu, where previously you only saw the Retropie thingy)

OK I found solution by myself and here it is.I just need to add this lines in config.txt .i hope this will be useful

sdtv_mode=2
sdtv_aspect=1
sdtv_disable_colourburst=0
framebuffer_width=640
framebuffer_height=480
overscan_left=27
overscan_right=0
overscan_top=0
overscan_bottom=0

I set my desktop to 640x480 and now there is black bars on the left and right. Possibly because ntsc is 720x480? This is better though as the image isn't squished anymore.

EDIT: That did it. 720x480 with a render resolution of 640x480 gives me a full 4:3 picture in moonlight. Cheers.
