@amishgamer Yeah, I forgot to use Clone Spy for automatic removal. Found out about that two days ago. Also, there are a few more differently named duplicates that I'm slowly removing for a full release.

I'm currently working on my ideal ROM set of USA>World/Europe>Japan, but I suppose I can fix up those batch files in the meantime.

Also, I just found out about this simple program for building ROM sets. https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/15233/mame-set-rebuilder

@mitu thanks it worked

in all honesty its easy to setup but you need to understand ra and it needs documented you can go back to the old way like above or set up up in controls both work im sure mark will get round to documenting it for people

It worked like a charm... thanks for the code dudleydes.

If anyone else is thinking about doing something similar, please bear in mind that you will also need to copy the Mame configurations (overwrite the mame folder in arcade), otherwise you'll loose your keyboard mappings and other configurations.

Cheers,

I dont know the Back2Basics theme but you should know there might be a chance that it hasn't been updated for months or maybe even years.
I use Nostalgic theme if you would like to give that a try. https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/16825/theme-nostalgic

cant speak for the standalone pcsx-rearmed so someone else could probly chip in there as for the libretro build its possible to generate game specific overides both for core settings and controller remaps via the quick menu section of emulators menu i use the libretro build myself for specific core settings for certan games as analogue input breaks certan games and enhanced resolution brings in graphic glitches on some too so i have specific configs for these games via the override feature

I found the issue was with my USB to SD adapter. The image did contain partitions and windows detected a new USB storage device, halting the write operation. I had no issue when writing to SD on my laptop using a standard SD slot. Image is clean, well configured right out of the gate.

Right!!

If there’s anyone still there.

I’ve managed to change them so retroarch sees my numbered buttons. It still won’t save. When I go into input for user two and click bind default all it changes to how I want it. But it just won’t save!!

power suply is 2.5A and pluged into wall not a power strip

sd card i think might be the problem i couldnt run retropi or raspian the first few times i tried

@bagoflaxia said in mpg123 player works fine for BGM, but kills game audio.:

Is there a command I can put in to the mpg123 config to stop this from happening?

There is a topic on how to set this up in RetroPie - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/9133/quick-and-easy-guide-for-adding-music-to-emulatonstation-on-retropie-noob-friendly.

Follow the instructions in the topic and add the commands to stop mpg123 when a game starts by editing the runcommand-onstart.sh script, this should stop the music from playing while the game runs.

Hi! I'm having the same problem. Did you solved that?

@markgrindcore in the retropie setup script under configuration/tools I think there's an option to reset the retropie menu. If not it might be under core. Don't have access to my pi right now to check

@melbmatt50 You are limited by the romset. AdvanceMAME may have the other games you require. Which games are you wishing to run? Post here and people can tell you what they use.

Pi Model or other hardware: (3b)
Power Supply used: (The Recommended One)
RetroPie Version Used (retropie-4.4-rpi2_rpi3)
Built From: (The Original Image)
USB Devices connected: Keyboard Only
Controller used: IPAC 2 Controller In Keyboard Mode
Error messages received: N/A
Emulator: (Not Working In Any)

The joypads folder is empty, I`m not using a controller I am using a keyboard and an IPAC 2 controller in keyboard mode. IPAC is running latest firmware.

I have not intentionally disabled the menu toggle, I have accessed RetroArch and changed the Enable Hotkey and that seems to work, I have also specified the Menu Toggle which I`m assuming is to launch RetroArch from within the game?

@mitu said in Date/Time synchronization:

epending on the timesyncd service

Good idea, I'm going to try that. Thanks.

@melbmatt50 said in Retropie power switch:

As I mentioned before many of the emulators I am not sure if you can program a hot key to escape back to the main retropie menu like you can in mame4all

more or less any default emulator in retropie should do this by default. there should be no reason to unplug the pi to turn it off whilst retropie is running.

Ok I've tested jslisten but only accept 4 button pressed at once and seems no button sequence working...

@rontra74 said in Can no longer save game data, retain Favorites category, or update setup script.:

It looks like it is an SD card space issue. I was able to pull up:

Indeed it does. :) One quick way to make some space is to invoke the pre-installed file manager Midnight Commander by entering the command mc in the console. It is rather self-explanatory. With it, you could delete some files you don't need to make the system at least usable again.
