PERFECT! Thank you, It is running smoooooth.

@mitu said in Joust Crash - Retropie 4.6 - Raspberry Pi 4B:

for me it's always imagined as Christopher Reeves.

I wholeheartedly agree Christopher Reeves defined the face of Superman for cinema in the 70's. :) I'm still not sure what "sparked" the Marvel/DC craze of this past decade but I'm certain Disney getting their meat hooks in Marvel helped it along. They seem to know profitable marketing and branding for sure, or maybe technology as a whole, as the visuals are pretty stunning. No doubt it'll be part of what defines pop culture of the 10's.

I have tried it with the simple configuration you suggest in /opt/retropie/configs/msx/retroarch.cfg and have not been successful. I have run different combinations and, after no luck, I have reintalled from scracth:

Latest RetroPie 4.6
Only SNES Compatible USB Controller
Installed only xboxdrv and lr-bluemsx

to reach the same situation in previous message. Briefly:

Mind it is event2 that responds to SNES Compatible USB Controller (not event1) and mind controller configuration is set to global (all).

pi@retropie:~ $ sudo cat /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg [...] input_player1_joypad_index = "1" input_player2_joypad_index = "0" input_player3_joypad_index = "2" input_player4_joypad_index = "3" [...]

With the configuration above SNES Compatible USB Controller is usable in EmulationStation. When entering RetroPie > Retroarch (usable as well)...
usb gampead configured in port #0
VIRTUAL-SNES2XBOX-CONTROLLER configured in port #1

Retroarch > Settings > Input >
Port 1 Binds VIRTUAL-SNES2XBOX-CONTROLLER
Port 2 Binds usb gamepad

So the correlation between /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg and Port Binds is obvious.

Entering MSX videogame...

usb gampead configured in port #0
VIRTUAL-SNES2XBOX-CONTROLLER configured in port #1

Controller is irresponsive. However, Select+Start (exit emulator) works at least and I can return to EmulationStation. At this stage, I don't know what else to test...

Many thanks in advance for your support all the way.

@benjaminjay said in accessing RGUI with keyboard:

@mitu could I simply start up a game from EmulationStation, open RGUI then close the game but leave RetroArch running and make the changes ?

No, because it would still save the configuration only for that particular system where the core was running.

Please use the libretro forum. This is a dedicated RetroPie forum and, while we use RetroArch, it's just on Linux/Raspberry Pi and not on Windows.

@mitu Seems to be random whenever I write a new image. It has worked the second time I wrote the image. The microsd card is a few months old, though.

perfect - got it all set up now. thanks for all the help!

@trust4068 Yes, it's an image that you can flash and it's installed.

Yeah should have searched before, thanks.

If anyone's seeing this and having the same doubt, it is recommended to install from scratch.

done. I hope now the post is more understandable

Sure is.

The date format is controlled by the theme, defaulting to MM/DD/YYYY if not specificed. You can add a format specifier by modifying the theme and adding

<format>%d/%m/%Y</format>

to the md_releasedate element used by the theme.

@mitu I reinstalled it, and it did a few extra steps it didn't do before, and now it's working :)

Thanks for your suggestion!

@lupsyn Please don't bump 3 years old topics. If you have an issue, open a new topic, add the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first and state your problem.

@quicksilver The heightened resolution isn't a feature I care about much. I was just curious now if there is retroarch like cheats for lr-ppsspp.

@quicksilver The stable build works fine but it has the menu bug. It's definitely something the dev changed.

I got this resolved on my system (Ubuntu 18.04, Intel i5-3470 iGPU) by installing and using Vulkan rendering. I did not have to download the Sys folder from the Dolphin source repo.

I must note that Vulkan is not supported on any CPU earlier than Ivy Bridge, so this may not be a viable solution for some people. Mine is the earliest possible generation chip this even works on, so I guess I got lucky.

Install Vulkan support and testing application

sudo apt install -y mesa-vulkan-drivers vulkan-utils

Test Vulkan (successful example):

vulkan-smoketest

Modify the GC and Wii cores' config files to use Vulkan renderer:

sed -i '$ i\video_driver = "vulkan"' /opt/retropie/configs/wii/retroarch.cfg sed -i '$ i\video_driver = "vulkan"' /opt/retropie/configs/gc/retroarch.cfg

After doing this, GC games worked fine. I'll come back and modify this post if necessary whenever I get around to adding Wii to my system.
