i managed to get it working how i wanted in rgui.... not sure why it wasnt before but owell ...

@herb_fargus thank you very much everything works great now!

Thank you @BuZz.

I can not seem to tie-down what the cause is yet. Here is the runcommand log for Vectrex now:

/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 804: 988 Segmentation fault /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-vecx/vecx_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/vectrex/retroarch.cfg "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/vectrex/Pole Position (USA) (C10F37D8).vec" --appendconfig /tmp/retroarch.cfg

Awesome, thanks for the quick fix @BuZz :)

Thanks for the help @ProxyCell :)

@Parental_Block See my previous post here for a solution.

We really need more information :P Which system are you talking about? (I guess it's mame)

@BuZz That was fast, cheers!

awesome thanks !!!!

@marcd220 you're welcome, I had exactly that issue so deleted a few roms that I don't use.

oh gosh, i was guessing that was it but i told myself (without checking of course!) "libzip-dev sounds pretty basic and I must already have that, the problem obviously lies elsewhere!" lol

thanks @BuZz that got it working for me again!

@herb_fargus Thanks, I had a feeling it's one and the same but I couldn't quite get a grasp on how things were configured/running, at least I've got more of a handle on how things interact now.

are you actually using lr-mame2003? latest version? you might have to rebuild lr-mame2003 from binaries or possibly from source to get this option, as it's quite new!

I'm having the same problem, I managed to get a bit further as described here:

I've also tried the 'downgrade kernel' solution here, which didn't work for me but it may be of help to you:

I've also found this blog to be useful in configuring xbox controllers:

HTH :)

@mediamogul said in Hardcoded/Keyboard Only Controls:

Very handy, thank you. I've been somewhat unwilling to test ColecoVision's presence in RetroPie due to it's lack of viable joystick options, so I look forward to testing it now.

Realize that the AdamEm emulator that I use is different from CoolCV which is supported by RetroPie. If you own a Pi 1B and want to try AdamEm you should contact froum member IntvDave at the Atariage forum (I might be so bold as to send you the executable if he has stopped following the AtariAge forum...).

Good luck! :-)

Does it still play up if you set the interval to 5 secs and wait a good 10 secs before quitting after an in -game save point?
