@Magnum77 Here's an exerpt from the documentation. I think you are enabling TURBO mode.

5.10 Speed Control AdvanceMAME permits a special speed control of the game play. You can play the game in a faster way, change arbitrarily the frame rate, skip the game startup process at the maximum speed, or skip the game animations pressing a key. Press `asterisk_pad' to enable the `turbo' mode. Press `minus_pad' to mark the time of the real game start. The next time the game is started, it will execute very fast until this time.

Basically, the * key on the numeric keypad is the default for turbo.

Regarding setting keys three times--this is not really the case. #1 above "User Interface" is an input area that covers the keys used for MAME functions--stuff like TURBO, and MENU navigation, FrameSkip, and such. #2 and #3 above are for controls and the difference is that #2 (General) sets the inputs for ALL GAMES, whereas #3 sets the inputs for this game only. What you can do is set the game inputs for GENERAL and when you launch another ROM, it will respect the settings you made here. Then, when necessary, you can override the GENERAL mapping using #3 (this game). Makes sense, right?

All of these settings appear in the .rc config file for the given version of advancemame.

In spite of the discourteousness, I wanted indicate for other people the solution in case of.

Unfortunately your "solution" doesn't help us as we have no idea what type and rating power supply you're using and on what version of the Pi.

@Pifan I will firstly change the power adaptor, if it still crashes, then I will investigate your solution. Thank you for replying me !

thanks @mediamogul and @dankcushions !
I just did not want to keep multiple gigantic sets in my archives and also on the pi's memory card either

known issue, not possible: https://github.com/libretro/pcsx_rearmed/issues/25

ok thanks
i will close this post,

it connected and worked once. Upon trying again after reboot, It would say connected and the blue led would be solid, but ES reported no gamepads found.

try to disconnect all your game pads, leave only a keyboard and mouse and then start kodi.

This may help

If you use libretro emulators (the lr-xxxxxx) variant, follow @iconrumble link and watch the video about core input remapping. It is possible to remap the buttons without fiddling with configurations files and without affecting emulationstation's navigation menu buttons. ;)

@thrussmeister any. it depends on what heading you want it to appear under in emulationstation, and all those emulators are capable of running it (romset MIGHT cause problems in none-mame2003 cores but in my experience neogeo roms are more forgiving). the default emulator for the neogeo folder is lr-fba-next I believe. gngeo is only used if you manually configure it.

I thought this is the official Retropie Forum? None of the Devs around here?

Should take them a few minutes to figure out whats wrong....

Ok finally she recognized the Keyboard :)
The issue was the Micro USB to USB adapter.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I can now move on with this project.

That's great, good luck! :)

Exiting ES takes a while if you have lots of roms and you have used the scraper - see https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/FAQ#why-does-shut-down-and-reboot-take-ages

Might be another problem though too - have you tried a fresh image to rule out a hardware issue (power / cabling etc). You could post via pastebin.com or similar the output from dmesg and the contents of /boot/config.txt, /var/log/syslog, /tmp/runcommand.log and ~/.emulationstation/es_log.txt

@mancity try and compress the img file with 7-zip or similar, it will certainly reduce the file size...

Thanks Floob! Believe it or not, I had already come across that smartretro post by you earlier today while googling-about. my neogeo.zip should contain all of the required files. I even downloaded the uni-bios from that site linked on there and threw those in for an unsuccessful try.

As for the romset, I used the dat file provided on the wiki page to create this set actually. I would like to believe it is all correctly named and the checksums all match, according to clrmamepro.

Its not a huge deal, I just really wanted to try out the emulator alongside the three builds of FBA already on here.

can't advise without a log (eg /tmp/runcommand.log) - but you are using the system in a way it was not designed, so you will have to debug it yourself.
