@mortymoose said in Connecting Old Ipac to Pi3b ~ How?:

Thanks guys, Think I will purchase a Usb->Ps2 adaptor.

I guess I never made the connection but I do have a handful of those old USB to PS2 purple and light green adapters laying around that were used back in the day for keyboard and mice. I wonder if they would do the trick.

In my existing cab, I left a keyboard inside connecting to the Ipac for any editing that I might needed to do.... so I will try and find an USB keyboard to replace this.....

They also work great with a wireless keyboard. I like the type that have the keyboard and glide pad built into one. They also have some nice mini-sized ones that are perfect for that type of thing.

If any one needs it, here is the full working config for PS3 which you can copy paste into the snes9x.cfg file.
/opt/retropie/configs/snes/snes9x.cfg
It will replace the 360 pad layout and there is no player 2 but you can edit the file as you wish.

Thanks to BuZz getting this all working.

You might try to edit:

Hello,

Try it here, raspberry pi bluetooth adapter. I also had similar problem then i prefer this. It's good. Thanks.

@noobia have you solved the problem with "Crash Bash"? How?

@thrussmeister https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/989/rotating-retropie-for-vertical-monitor

it's a configuration option. see https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Configuration-Editor

configure basic libretro emulator options configure default options for libretro emulators Allow analogue sticks to be used as a d-pad = 'left stick'

Thank you! Yes, I'm re-thinking the use of a Sanwa button on the front face of the cabinet. Instead, think I'll use a smaller momentary button with a stronger spring somewhere more out-of-the-way. Maybe on the top/rear or somewhere out of sight.

@rbaker I have to admit I've not tried; I'm fiddling with a single-player thingy and that's not come up for me. Yet!

Hi BuZz,
thanks a lot for your reply.
sorry, but i just realise that i didn't explain things correctly yesterday, i am not using any usb hub or things like that, when i say that i have 3 different input, that's input i have try to use one by one on my raspberry zero.

now for both keyboard (if i need a keyboard to configure my pi, i will try to find another one less exotic) and xbox360 controller, i think i will not try to use it with my pi anymore.
i will use only the logitech gamepad for the moment, so i will check the content of your link to see if i could solve the problem in the version 3.8.1.

thanks for your help.

I got it. You were right, I needed an older ROM. Thanks!

As a troubleshooting measure, try launching the same files from Basilisk II on your PC.

No problem. Thank you for trying. I won't get a new controller as this one is working perfectly with every other emulator (that I've tried so far). Hopefully someone will know how to get it working sooner or later.

@Yuhhans update lr-pcsxrearmed from binaries via retropie setup menu

@herb_fargus
Yeah, I saw that, and it's running through that now. Taking quite a while. My screen has a lot of:
Removing 'diversion of /boot/overlays/[File name} to /usr/share/rpikernelhack/overlays[file name] by rpikernelhack'

EDIT:
Welp, now my SD Card won't boot at all. So i'll just go through and reinstall it, no big deal. My only issue is having to get the ROMS back on there. When it's done i'll look up a guide somewhere to get them to play over the network or something to save me from having to copy them over the network.
