After running the update my high scores now save ok.

Im stilll have no luck changing the hotkey from "num6" to "h"
If I edit it with notpad++ it looks right but no changes to how it functions.
Also ive tried to change in ES controller config. When I get to the hotkey input at the end- I press my new button and get a key h input from the ipac2... still doesn't seem to actually change the hot key.
I have game and core remap files for tons of games if this matters. Can anyone help me?

@metroid88 said in Vs. Ice Climbers:

I'm building a coin operated arcade machine for my personal use (to helpme save some money) and I'm trying to play VS system games and PlayChoice-10 on my retroarch 4.4 build, but haven't been able to run properly some games, Like VS ICE CLIMBERS and VS SUPER MARIO, Has anyone been able to run those under MAME or FBA? What can I do to run them properly?

I can only get the VS games running in the current lr-mame. I actually did a tiny build of it with only vsnes.c driver. Runs fine on a pi3+...

You're probably talking about Webtropie :

Perfect. Thanks. That was the folder I didn't know the location of. It did have hard coded video aspect and overlay. All is good now.

I test to swap disks with another world. It work's. I start amiberry, then put the first disk in DF0, pass the first level. When it ask the disk 2, I press select + x to access the amiberry gui from my gamepad. Then I select the disk 2 in the DF0 drive, press resume, then press a button on my pad like the game ask. The level 2 loads, they save me from this beast to put me in a jail, why?
Finally, every time i put a disk in DF0 I do it from the "floppy drives" menu, not from the "quickstart" menu, I don't know if it make a difference. I hope it will help you to play this very good game

@urko948 Online Updater is mainly used for cheats.

Any other suggestions ?

This is long overdue and you likely figured this out by now, but for posterity, I'll post what I found to be a solution. I just made the switch the Stretch and this one little issue was the only road block I encountered in restoring my backup from Jessie. The Docs state that you only need to set the desired machine type into the terminal overlay and that the corresponding BIOS will be selected. Needless to say, this didn't work for me either.

@edmaul69 mentioned above that the machine should be selection through the emulator's option menu by pressing the 'Menu' key. That is correct, but the problem is that many keyboards don't have a 'Menu' key. To change this key binding, drop to the terminal and type:

cp /opt/retropie/emulators/openmsx/share/scripts/keybindings.tcl /home/pi/.openmsx/share/scripts/keybindings.tcl

Then type:

nano /home/pi/.openmsx/share/scripts/keybindings.tcl

After the contents of the script are displayed, look for:

} else { ;# any other bind_default "keyb MENU" main_menu_toggle

My keyboard has a 'HOME' key, so I replaced 'MENU' with that. However, you can put any key you want here, but it should be one that doesn't interfere with the MSX keyboard. Using the 'HOME' key, the replaced test should look like:

} else { ;# any other bind_default "keyb HOME" main_menu_toggle

press 'ctrl+O' to save, 'Y' to verify and exit with 'ctrl+X'. Now you can launch a game and bring up the onscreen menu where you should be able to select a machine ('Philips NMS 8250' for a European MSX2 if that's what you're aiming for). Afterward, bring up the menu again and select the option to make the current machine the default. Now, the chosen machine and corresponding BIOS should be applied every time a game is launched.

Look Ma... No Lightning Bolt!

@mitu it came back :/

@chuck_b Yes, whenever you update all installed packages or just ES from the setup script.

I would keep a copy of the new ES binary with the remapped quit key and then, after updating, you can overwrite the ES binary with your modded version, unless, of course, there is a new feature in ES that you desire, in which case, you would need to recompile.

@rascas I'm using a Raspberry PI 3 with an official power supply. My sd card is a 16 gb SanDisk Ultra.

@rascas said in Kodi doesn't work anymore:

If you have a backup, why don't you just install the latest RetroPie version and copy over your settings/roms/etc?

I'm not sure about which directories i have to copy, because i changed different settings

Bump?

You can try now installing Vice, the bug has been fixed and building from source works.

It's fine to downgrade. Shipped SDL2 should be fine on your system.

@edmaul69 You can. There are really some rom sharing pages, mentioning clearly those eboots are from official sony psn store. They decrypt it with tools.

Another thing is, you are unable to revert back those files to bin/cue/iso files. They are generated from pkg files downloaded raw from sony psn.

@reaper91 Don't enable 'Save configuration on exit', it's not compatible with the RetroPie's configuration hierarchy and messes things up. If you want to save your settings for a particular core/game, use Core input remapping.
If this is your first time using RetroPie, I'd advise to start again from scratch and re-image. After configuring the controllers, just start a few games/roms and test them and if you still have problem, ask here.

@inky1003 I think you have the wrong perception about RetroPie. RetroPie is not an OS in itself, it sits on top of a full OS, you can install it on an existing Raspbian, or start with the RetroPie image and add additional software later (quoted from the front page). You can use the full Raspbian (desktop) image and install RetroPie on it, or vice-versa - start with the RetroPie image (recommended) and then add the desktop (https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#where-did-the-desktop-go).

If you have installed RetroPie on your existing Raspbian image, you can just start the setup script and do the configurations described in the docs - it's not something included just in the RetroPie image.
Btw, 3.6 is such an old release, no wonder the setup script cannot determine the platform you're running (probably due to the newer kernel included)

@tman77 wondering what your experience has been so far with this image. MLP has a 200GB image based on Team ORA 1.1 Retropie image. I came back to this image, adding roms with video snaps, however I can't make Dreamcast recognize my 8bitdo pro. I did try the reincast script, attached a keyboard, re-mapped the keys. No success. I haven't tried wired controllers, but WTF, I didn't pay 50 bucks a piece for these in order to play with cheap 10 dollar controllers. In the mean time, my RPI 3b+ works like a charm, except for N64 and Dreamcast.
