@UnknownMK I'm using an Alan-1 repro yoke and adapter with a Pi3B+. I'm successfully running Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back at 100%, no slowdown or audio issues using Advmame 3.9. My biggest problem was the 'deadzone' but with some help I eventually managed to get rid of it. Have a look at my other posts for some pointers. One thing though that I'd recommend is to flash the adapter with the latest firmware available on the Alan-1 page. Use the 'windows' version as this has no deadzone, the Linux/Retropie version has 10% built in.

I'm having issues with Return of the Jedi, it was dropping frames and tearing on Advmame 3.9 so I'm experimenting with mame2003 and mame2003-plus for that. I haven't tried any of the other titles you mentioned although a fellow user @wstanek has.

If the SDcard is removable, all they have to provide is a new image file and you can write it on the SDcard - I don't see why you'd need to get a new SD card.

If you have more than one RPi setup then you can simply copy files instead of re-scraping. (And you can create or "tweak" images/text.)

retropie-buster-4.6-rpi1_zero is the file i used
(sorry for the double post)

No, it hasn't been removed. If you're running this on the Pi4, then it's not compatible and it will not appear in the list of available packages - use lr-pcsx_rearmed, which is already installed by default on the RetroPie image.

@Chapster5 Thanks for sharing your solution. 👍

@rilight I was actually looking for that thread before posting this, I could not find it for some reason. I am disappointed that this is happening. I will also look for the screen tearing. I will probably hold off on swapping my Pi3B+ out of my arcade cabinet for this Pi4 until things are smoothed out.

I am using Carbon with no modifications to any settings, fresh image installed from this website.

sure! didn't want to imply that, it just was a major roadblock for me yesterday and today and a lot of searching around just showed that a bunch of people had the same problem. the solutions with manually editing the config file sure help but it would have been just so much easier if I could have set it in the menue. not because editing the file is difficult, more like you don't think of it because everything else just works like it should (well, beside the playstation classic controller not working despite being a simple USB device) and the config tool just blanking out is confusing. honestly if the whole system wouldn't crawl around at around 10 - 15fps at 4k you wouldn't even notice the problem is there to begin with. I'll search if the problem is known at Raspbian.

@Shizzmoney

The turbo function is build in to the controller just like the original PC Engine.
These can not be mapped for any other function because they are hardwired into the pcb.

Drivers are usually not installed in the image, you have to install them - such is the xpadneo driver.

As outlined in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first, we don't support 3rd party images.
Selling systems with the RetroPie image bundled is against the project's license, and the games/roms included are also probably not licensed. We don't support scammers.

Please add some info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

If the 2nd controller is identical to the first, then you don't need to configure it again - the same configuration will work for the 2nd controller. Did you try plugging in just the 2nd controller to see if it works ?

Thanks I was just wondering it would have been easer for people but not so curious as to test it when I'm already finished with doing it without cue files.

But if anyone decides to do it the build in scraper works perfectly for scraping but skyscraper wouldn't for some reason but I had all the cue files from when I made the CHD files so I just scraped them and edited the gamelist.

And yet agian thank you mitu for the quick response your amazing

Are you sure you haven't subscribed to any of the categories in the forum ?

@cyperghost It is finally working now. I just scrapped running it off the flash drive for now, and just copied the pak files to the microsd, and unpacked it off there. If anything, I could just copy the unpacked stuff back to the flash drive later on, if I really want to run it off the flash drive later. Thanks so much for your help on this, and for bearing with a complete noob like me. Sorry to bother you a whole year after this was last posted, and thank you for the working script!

I hope the controller mapping and config isn't too painful, requiring another script to configure....

Hi Mike,

Sorry to dig this one up, but I'm desperate, haha.

I too am working on a project that launches a specific game with GPIO button. I was wondering if you still had the python script backed up somewhere that you'd be willing to share?

Thank you either way.

Many thanks,
Scott
