@idk From the RetroPie-Setup menu entry in Emulationstation - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/.

Well, thanks for coming back with the solution and happy gaming.

@Sldb please post all the info that was requested of you. Which model of Xbox one controller are you using? It's in the battery compartment. Are you connecting via USB or Bluetooth?

try this inside the minecraft.sh write

#!/bin/bash
xset -dpms s off s noblank
matchbox-window-manager &
/usr/bin/minecraft-pi

@mitu I don't think that works (though thank you for the suggestion).
The problem is that my gamepad's number was dynamic so I wouldn't know what number it was until I start the game!

Though I managed to solve the problem by creating a runcommand-onstart.sh script:

root@retropie:/opt/retropie# cat /opt/retropie/configs/all/runcommand-onstart.sh

#!/bin/bash # fix player input index order! # on my system, the bluetooth gamepad always gets index 0 when it is active # which messes up the controls for all joystick based games! if [ -e "/dev/input/js2" ] then # Bluetooth controller is currently active! # Change retroarch's config order for player 1 through 3... # wired joystick 1 for player 1, wired joystick 2 for player 2, wireless gamepad for player 3 /bin/cp /opt/retropie/configs/all/base_configs/retroarch.cfg.all-bluetooth_enabled /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg # bluetooth gamepad for player 1, for psx! /bin/cp /opt/retropie/configs/all/base_configs/retroarch.cfg.psx-bluetooth_enabled /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg else # Bluetooth controller not presently active! # Reset retroarch's config # wired joystick 1 for player 1, wired joystick 2 for player 2 /bin/cp /opt/retropie/configs/all/base_configs/retroarch.cfg.all-bluetooth_disabled /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg # no custom input config for psx! /bin/cp /opt/retropie/configs/all/base_configs/retroarch.cfg.psx-bluetooth_disabled /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg fi

root@retropie:/opt/retropie#

This is hardcoded to my system but it solves my problem!
It looks for /dev/input/js2 (which is the device for my bluetooth gamepad) and, if it exists, it overwrites the retroarch.cfg global (and the psx) config to map the input_playerX_joypad_index parameter! :)

wow, you guys are really in love with your usb sticks, defending them with life and limbs ...

@dankcushions

so what you are saying is that usbmount reliable mounts on every boot or that it is easier for a newcommer to linux to edit fstab than just transfer roms over network?

@pjft

if you edit fstab it will obviusly mount perfectly on each boot, but imo you cannot rely on everyone to know or understand how to edit fstab.
tbh i doubt that there is really much of a diffrence today in speed, cost or reliability using a brand new usb stick vs sdcard considdering it is most likely using somewhat same chips and it is therefore up to the sdcard reader vs the controller on the usb stick which could arguably be marginally better on a usb stick than the raspberry, considdering it might be newer/better.
however, considdering that it will be using usb 2.0, i doubt there will be a major diffrence if any anyway.
a really high end sd card will most likely outperform a low end usb stick and vice versa,, high end sd card and high end usb sticks will most likely perform somewhat the same at about same price range, so in my oppinion it is just easier to just use a decent sd card and not have the hassle of editing anything (more than neccessary).

however i do agree and see your point, that it might be easier for a windows user to have a drive you can actually read in windows.
but considdering i dont use windows it isnt really a problem for me personally as i can just pop in the sd card in my computer and read it.

@mitu ok thanks anyways :)

Please add more info about your system, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

What do you mean by turned off the start vids for the roms ? What configuration have you changed ?

@OutRun said in [HELP MAME ] Can MAME 0.206 run older / previous mame version game's ?:

Did someone try to insert Hacks in MAME emulators and play MAME Games with hacks?

Yes - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/lr-mame2003/#cheats

And where you find MAME games without viruses and other stuff ?

Asking for ROMs is not part of this forum - http://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2/forum-rules.

@mitu alright thanks a lot for your answers :)

right, so decided stuff it and start all over again.
redownloaded 4.4 and started afresh.
roms workeing fine, so following eta prime guide, i used steven selp scraper.
snes, megadrive etc all scraped fine, arcade is missing loads, but no issue playing roms after.
am i okay to now just use skyscraper for arcade only or do you have to delete the previous steven selp arcade scrape info first.

Perfect, thank you!

I know this is an old thread but is this functionality still active. Nothing happens in my recent installation of ES when pressing shoulder buttons.

@quicksilver I’ll try another SD card first, I have one that I was using to start an arcade cab build, but I haven’t really started yet, so not a big deal.

@commodore_nerd Well if no linux binary exist then you will need to download the source files from the emulator, compile and make the binary. But first you need to make sure that you have installed all the library packages that the emulator is depending on.

Think of it as needing specific dll files for as specific program/software in Windows to be able to run/execute. (for example directx)

For the Raspberry Pi it will typical be the SDL version of them emulator that you want.

As @mitu described it, is one of the following ways to accomplish it.

Emulationstation doesn't support that, but you can check AttractMode or Pegasus.

Hm, it seems that uae4all is also not available on x86/PC systems - for the PC it's lr-puae or fs-uae that are candidates for installation.

@BuZz Sorry my mistake.

@mitu I had no luck with Skyscraper, it did not find any of the missing PC Engine CD games the normal way.

How do I scrape by MD5 using the --queryoption?

UPDATE: Ok, so three weeks later, being stubborn and refusing to give up, I finally managed to download the missing video snaps for those five PC Engine CD games!

What I did, was to place those five PC Engine CD games into /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pcengine, then I scraped with skyscraper and it managed to find the video snaps for those games. I set the video path to each game from /home/pi/.emulationstation/downloaded_media/pcengine/videos/game name.mp4.

I thought I would just update my last post incase anyone else is having the same problems that I had.

@zacknawrocki There's nothing new since the last message that I added to the topic - I'm not interested in Fofix so I didn't try to find a solution to the error.
