Hi everybody,
I've got my rpi4 with RetroPie 4.7.2 with the exact same problem. But unlike PiDad, my setup script is pointing to the master repo: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.git

Any help would be appreciated,I really need to get avdmame 1.4 installed so I can get my lightgun up and running.

Cheers

The dot at the beginning of a directory name will be hidden by default on a Linux box I believe. (" . es" would be hidden. "es" would not.) That may help you track down more files.

@rbezares I had this a couple of days back, somehow es had managed to remove it self, I refreshed the card and it happened again, although got slightly further in the boot as es did appear before crashing. I flashed a new image to a different micros and it has worked fine since so am putting it down to a bad card

@mitu I used the first option to add those binds to the retroarch.cfg file in the snes folder and I have all my SuperScope games working just fine now. Thank you!

@rbaker Okay thank you for your help. I have contacted the creator. Thank you

@dreamcastkid

Thanks, it's empty. I think the emulator crashes all before it has a chance to even log something.

@mitu ok thank you. Maybe I can add this as a feature request (on GitHub or in the forum?) and try and work with someone more talented than me on the coding of this.

@mitu
That looks like it worked! Thank you so much for the quick help with the issue.

@frolickin Thanks for the kind words, and glad you have everything up and running.

@mitu OK I will have to go for a pi4 then.

Thank you very much for your help

It works by having only the right pad for the console plugged in at a time. I'll stick to that since my daughter has a USB hub with a switch for each port on her Pi. So I can have all pads plugged in at once but only use the one I want thanks to the power button on the hub.

I've set up four kinds of pads: a NES pad, 3 SNES pads, a N64 pad and a Megadrive pad. Thanks to your setup (with retroarch.cfg files) I don't have to map the pad buttons anymore: I can just power them on and off with the button on my hub and enjoy any console that I like.

Thank you so much for my daughter & cheers from France! :-)

@mitu Thanks a lot for your help.

@clyde
That's fantastic, thanks for the info! I had been searching for usb interfaces on the web, but hadn't seen one like this. I don't see why this wouldn't work. I'll give it a shot, and let everyone know.

@mitu ok i try to put it before emulationstation runs, basically the script erase an empty file that i use with an if conditional, i make an option that let me pause the music, if i activate it, the if creates an objects and while the file exists the music stop playing and if i push again the if erase the file and the music continues. i want that the raspberry erase that file if we have music paused so the music start on the startup and i can activate pause again in the menus.
