@spruce_m00se
Still testing v4 for a bit longer. Waiting for the next prototype board to arrive. Trying to have it ready by the holidays.

I've got a post for it in the forum
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/12163/pspi-1000-version-4/
Will be updating that page when the next board finally arrives (been waiting a few weeks)

I believe it is on his GitHub page.
Edit: I found Space 2.0, but not the first one. The link at the top is invalid (as of September 2017).
Here is where you can download it.
@robertybob I suggest you update this on the post at the top if you can.

@udb23 said in Create SVG Logos:

Sorry I don't know what these images look like. If they are system logos than it should be possible; but instead of using conversion tools probably you need to redraw them manually.

ok thanks

@caver01 i also should mention, the biggest reason why the intellivision is hard to get used to. Most games arent designed for you to tap up down left right. They are designed to have you "roll" around the disk from one position to another. Auto racing wont work at all tapping left and right. The whole top half of the disc determines the position of the steering wheel. So pressing up is straight and as you roll right or left it determines how far you are turning the steering wheel. This design really takes a lot of getting used to.

@Erikaray Thanks!

@sphirst thanks I will post it here once I have it completed. Although I might just make it into a screensaver?

@udb23 missed this one. just updated my overlays. many thanks and great work as always...

Been awhile since I've updated on this project. Ran into some hiccups and progress has slowed. The dvd drive was unstable as it wasn't getting enough power, adding a powered usb hub and a separate power supply to help with this. However unless I get help from a programmer I dont think Ill be getting it to play PS1 discs anytime soon, However I can still save the disc to ram or sd card so not completely useless. I recently got my psx->usb adapter soldered in would rather go gpio but couldn't get it to work.

Purchased an arduino nano to make ORIGINAL psx memory cards hopefully run on the pi.

@darksavior Okay then.

@edmaul69 I think I was getting some interference with the foil, kept getting slow copy speeds to the flash drive or copy errors, so the foil was removed and the issue was resolved.

This looks awesome Shane, I'd love to buy the housing and buttons..... I already have the PI.... will you be putting on Ebay anytime soon?

@pacdude Any update on your new theme?

@rulmismo Yeah, the screw terminals hanging out from the wall plug have gaps around them, open/electrified screws exposed so someone with a tool in hand might be able to electrocute themselves.

One step better would be to use an extension cord, keeping the female end. Plug your DC adapter into it instead of the screw terminals, then use the length of cord to replace your black and blue wires, cutting the extension cord when it reaches your plug on the right side and re-solder. At least this would put the dangerous part only on the right side which you could protect again with heat shrink like you have now, and you could even glue a little a thin box around it so it can't accidentally get pulled and touched.

That's kinda what I did with my cabinet. I glued some thin wood around the point where the AC comes into my cabinet and made a little box around it. My internal high-voltage power is just the end of an extension cord inside my cabinet.

@ruckage

It's because you're using a very old version of my theme, It's had lots of changes since then to support various addition and changes in ES.

Ah that makes sense.. Does your newer version have a lot of changes, or does it just work better on the newer EmulationStation. If it's the same, but just works better with updated ES, then I might have to check it out. Got a link?

I got this version off the internet by googling it. So I had no idea what version or even who made it till coming on here!

As I said previously my theme isn't particularly easy to follow due to the layout system I made so everything is spread over multiple files which complicates any changes that need to be made.

Yeah no kidding lol!! It's like trying to put together a puzzle, but most of the pieces are in other boxes, and you have to go through each box to find the connecting piece.

Looking at code gives me a headache, so this is more difficult for me than others maybe.. I'm hoping sooner or later to get this fixed..

There is the a-pac board, but 39$ is too expensive and the second controller will be useless.

Today I managed to test all of the components outside the case, and everything works with my test Pi. Running off the battery without a booster works just fine with a Zero.

Cranking up the volume in RetroArch makes the piezo loud enough to hear for general gaming, even if it's not quite high fidelity.

Everything plays really nicely now that I'm using the board where I soldered to the chip pads instead of the old "make your own test pad" method.

Next up I need to make everything fit in the actual case. First up, removing unnecessary stuff from a Pi Zero. This looks awful, but it works. If anyone has tips on removing the USB ports, HDMI port, or camera connector in a cleaner manner, please let me know.

Every little bit of thinness is going to help with this build.

@lilbud, this is exactly what I was looking for, except I'm hoping to find 8-bit and 16-bit era games. Although with waht TMNTturtlguy has mentioned above, HD game logos may not be the direction I want to go after all. Thanks though.
