@BuZz yeah i will open a new thread. Im just using the doom 1 & 2 mp3's. They work in lr-prboom but not zdoom

@BuZz premade from downloads section. It DID happen after upgrade, I'll read that post and give it a shot. Thanks for the prompt reply.

@backstander

Just keep them away from 'Donkey Kong Jr. Math'. An ape in a diaper has no business teaching arithmetic.

Update
I'm glad you got it working!

@VladoPortos said in USB Audio dongle have no sound in emulators.:

I personally thinks maybe its something with retroarch, I'm trying now specify correct HW in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg under audio_device = , but so far no luck :(

I agree, it sounds like it's just the RetroArch emulators without sound. I also think it might be a setting in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

RetroPie comes with a backup of their custom all retroarch.cfg with default settings. It is located here:
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg.rp-dist

You could test with default settings by backing up your original retroarch.cfg and then copy retroarch.cfg.rp-dist to retroarch.cfg.

@Dominus said in Backup from Pi3 to Pi2?:

Nope did it myself. Bought a Pi3 for a present, fixed it all up, and I just want to be able to copy that image to my old Pi2. Thanks for the info, I will try updating after I've written the image.

One more thing, if you sent up a Manual overclock on the Pi3, you'll want to probably edit the bood config.txt or it might cause issues on the Pi2 as it can't run at those speeds.

Again, I haven't do it that way, but I dod go from a Pi2 to a Pi3 and it kept my "screaming" 1000 Mhz overclock on the Pi3 until I manually edited the boot config.

Following up on my own thread.

After my great experience with four controllers, two wireless and two wired, I decided to bite the bullet and order two more NES30's. Works great so far. Granted I've only played Super Bomberman 3 with four controllers, but I haven't seen any anomalies.

@noon That would probably require ES to be modified to either catch a SIGTERM signal and perform its normal shutdown procedures, or could have it check for the existence of a trigger file to shut down. Either of which are not very difficult to implement.

Perhaps you can post this suggestion in the Ideas and Development section of the forum.

@Septcanmat glad you got it sorted. there are two versions of Raspbian, one with the desktop environment, the other without(Raspbian lite) obviously the RetroPie sd image is built on Raspbian lite.

Wiki can be edited by anyone so feel free to make a note of it

Never mind, I found it. I was looking in the wrong place. All working now!

@ebtalk

cd /path/to/games ls >gamelist.txt

So I have similar specs, and have been following this site https://howchoo.com/g/mti0oge5nzk/pi-cart-a-raspberry-pi-retro-gaming-rig-in-an-nes-cartridge and was directed to come here when they couldn't figure out the same issue @skrapps914 is having.

Plug in all USB devices first, then power, USB Hub light comes on, which also had worked when on desktop. Decided to directly connect keyboard and/or gamepad without HUB so was directly to the USB to mini USB to Pi 0. Still nothing showing in Emulation Station. Had to directly disconnect the power and reconnect and start over, still no dice. Went from a 2.0 Amp to a 2.5 Amp, no difference.

Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

also did you read https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/First-Installation ?

I suspect you are running the rpi2/3 image on a rpi0/1

Hi guys, I just figure out what was wrong. I noticed that the zero delay joystick directionals should be connected in a specific order in the board: UP | DOWN | RIGHT | LEFT and I connected something like UP | RIGHT | LEFT | DOWN.

I thought the position wouldn't matter because I could set them in the retropie. Probably the board can't handle UP+DOWN and LEFT+RIGHT simultaneously, what makes sense, but when I connected in the wrong positions it wasn't handling UP+RIGHT and DOWN+LEFT simultaneously.

Anyway, my problem is solved now,

Thank you

@herb_fargus I forgot about that herb. Think I set my Zero up before this was implemented.

Got it figured out! Thanks for trying to help. Instead of 6 buttons I had it on 3 buttons.

@edmaul69 I'll check it out tonight when I get home from work and thanks for all the help I've played with linux before but this is my first pi.

@Rad_Schuhart said in Im really desperate trying to save changes at retroarch.:

Im triying to customize controls in the diferent emulators, and I got it pressing Select + X while in the game.

If this is the only thing you wanna do, the best and simplest way to do it is through Core Input Remapping. And it doesn't need the config_save_on_exit enabled to work.

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/RetroArch-Configuration#core-input-remapping

The problem is that if you already enabled config_save_on_exit, probably your configs are messed. If you don't know how to recover the retroarch.cfg.rp-dist files, I suggest a fresh install and then using Core Input Remapping.

And, of course, searching the answers on the wiki always helps...

Jesus Christ, it seems that I got it!. Thanks for your help!

And yeah, trust me when I say that I've read the wiki, I've read a lot of forums and spent hours watching videotutorials in youtube. I was really desperate.
