@officialazyria

You have to go through this and look if there are systems installed (otherwise install them) :

@mitu I did indeed configure my controller when I first booted up. Had to re-do it a few times because I was having issues with the blue tooth. I guess I must have mucked something up when I re-configured my controller, because I went back to re-configure my input from the emulationstation ui just to make sure, and now the problem is fixed, I feel like such a dope for not trying this, thanks.

@androidonpi I checked everything before screen savers and stuff like that all are off, sometimes when i have chromium open ublock crashes sometimes from what i saw before it happens.

When i log back in everything is closed. Could it be a pi 4 going bad at all, thats what has me worried a little.

@mitu said in TI99 Scraping problem:

It looks like ti99 is not a supported platform for the EmulationStation's scraper. It needs to be added in order for the scraping to work - so for now you can use Skyscraper or another external scraper for the TI99.

Thank you very much. This worked perfectly.

@lostless thankyou. This has been driving me crazy but you hit the nail on the head. I had a driver installed for a case that had the option for cooling that must have used those pins. I uninstalled the driver and it is working now.

@martinex https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/#updatinginstalling-individual-packages

Perfect, that solved it. Thanks.

Use Google translate to read my reply. That's what I did to read your issue...but in the future, try to post in English as more people will read and answer it. No disrespect to you or your language, it's just more common to use English as the middle of the road for everyone.

Go into the RetroPie Menu for audio by using the actual Retropie Menu, not the emulation station shortcut. Once you're in the RetroPie Menu, look for the audio options and switch the output from HDMI to 3.5" Audio jack.

The menu is easy to navigate, you'll see it.

The board is just an amplifier, but to make sure your audio output is set right/working, use a set of headphones to test it. If you hear sound, you know the issue is your amplifier.

Hope that helps.

@mitu I may try out the dev version for the scrolling game titles fix, but removing the system name wouldn't quite fix the issue here, since then it would then just be a different set of games (same title on different systems) that would be indifferentiable. Ideal (for me) would be both full game title and the system name, but I understand it may not be a priority for anyone else.

@mitu oh just a typo in the post I did change it to alsa in the script.

I have opened an issue at github and they solved the problem. It was an issue in a mapping file. Update is online and it fixwa the problem.

No, there is no such configuration available - the screensaver exits on any input (unless you have enabled the 'Screensaver control' option, when they either scroll or start the game).

Is that a message from your monitor ? Does it turn off after it shows this message ?
Please add more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Do you have a custom EmulationStation configuration file for systems (es_systems.cfg) ? Please add more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@jgeibel @wossquee Not sure if you still care about this, but this is now possible by using the new retroarch core dosbox-pure. Just tested it out and now I'm able to get this pinball game working vertically on my cocktail table setup. Now to add 2 flipper buttons on the side so it plays like a real pinball table.

Also note that I had to change the IRQ setting to use IRQ 5 instead of IRQ 7 (the default) to get the sound effects to work.

@roslof

That did the trick! Thank you. I guess since I looked at the folder path in windows explorer, and it spelled "RetroPie" in lower case as "retropie" I assumed that would be the correct folder name. Thanks for you help!

@mitu said in Anyone know how to set up N64 raphnet adapter with the "raphnetraw plugin" on RetroPie??:

Looks like the input plugin is detected and loaded, but the plugin errors out while opening the controller:

... Opening device path: '/dev/hidraw2' Input Error: Could not open gcn64 device serial '109634'. Skipping it. Input Error: No adapters detected

Maybe there's a permission error ? Check if the /dev/hidraw* devices are available to the pi user, by running the command:

ls -l /dev/hidraw*

pi@retropie:~ $ ls -l /dev/hidraw*

OH MY GOOODNESS!! THAT DID IT! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!

Not to resurrect a dead post, but this was the first helpful result in a quick search so I'd imagine others would kand here as well.

For me the issues was the keyboard mapping. I didn't realize it was off until I went to manually edit a /etc/network/interfaces.d/99-wifi file to add the lines referenced above. Vi was acting weird because of the mapping being off.

tl;dr make sure all of the localisation settings are configured prior to doing the wifi setup.

@16bit as other stated already there is no need to use YAPE. However, from my experience some of the more recent homebrew games only work with YAPE. You may consider this guide [1] to install retroarch xplus4 and YAPE alongside.
