    @martinrdgz i don't believe there's any rules/consistency about how game data is split across chips. also see http://wiki.mamedev.org/index.php/Dumping_roms

    well I feel like a dolt,

    seems that it was that at some point I did a find and replace on the .zip files to match my .7z roms, then I guess when I went back in to edit I did a find and replace on the .bin files and changed them also to .7z.... I guess that was confusing it. Thanks for the help simonster, thats a nice command I didn't know. I've got it working again.

    I would recommend converting your .bin files to .pbp.

    Once done, follow the video tutorial on how to swap discs. You can then assign hotkeys (button combination with your assigned hotkey) to swap the disc without needing to open the retroarch menu every time for that game.

    I got the game running that I was thinking of putting in there. What a blast from the past. You have to create a folder for the game and then just put everything in there that the instructions tell you to. Then point the program to the folder and you are golden.

    Hi @dondeivid2000 and welcome to the forums.

    You need to complete the information requested in: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

    I would also ask, you say RetroPie 3, RetroPie 4.2 was the last major image release.

    Can you detail how your controller is connected to the Pi?

    @ecks, just tried it on a GBA rom. All three emulators and an assortment of 5 or 6 resolutions all give me the same problem with no changes.

    @shoothere the latest romset now has the decryption key in the rom instead of the emulator for cps1 and 2 games. So with the updated fba, most capcom games just stopped working.

    @edmaul69 Thanks for the response.

    Yes, multiple times. Also performed update several times. And reset the config files and roms.

    Following other suggestions, I reset the PS3 controller, changed controllers, and removed/reinstalled the PS3 driver. Also, I deleted the retroarch joypad directory. No change to the controller problem yet.

    For more details; the joysticks work when configuring the controller. That is, they register properly and have an axis movement identified as the input. But when controller configuration is over, they still do not work.

    @jamesrives

    How did you change the resolution?

    Try this:

    Open- boot/config.txt
    Make sure the following lines are uncommented and set to the values shown - this will set the output to 480p.
    hdmi_group=1
    hdmi_mode=2

    Anybody having these issues with other controllers? Read that some people having issues with version .12?

    Mostly annoying is that when pressing start to start a rom, it throws me back to the games screen and that most buttons, even properly configured in es and am, dont work anymore. Even the connected bluetooth controller is first joy0 and later on joy1 when rebooting. Its very annoying.

    Anybody knows what i should or can do? Thanks!

    Have you tried to install DraStic? It runs 100% on a Pi3 and I am very pleased with it.

    I know this doesnt answer your question and it requires minimal fiddling to get it set up but when it runs, it runs great!
