What is the option i must activate for the blue menu if i want to try it on my PI3 and make a feedback on the forum please ?

menu_driver = "xmb"
to use the 'green menu', it's
menu_driver = "rgui"

WOW thanks a lot, i see this option but not understand it lol

@darknior there are some strange errors at the end of that log, but i don't know if they're a problem.

retropie is hard-coded to build version v1.6.7 of retroarch (we don't get the latest nightly because it can break the various patches that we apply, but this does get updated regularly). is that's what you see when you open the menu? in which case, it's working as intended.

darknior

@dankcushions Ok fine, if it is normal i understand the reason.
Why not hide the RETROARCH source code update ? Because like we must respect the Team choice, the BINARY update is enough.

i don't know that the binary is ALWAYS updated at the same time as the script. plus it is one binary for all pi models (or maybe two, one for rpi1/0, one for rpi2/3, i forget), so you miss out on the unique compiler flags for the pi3, which may give a (probably unmeasurable) performance boost.

plus for me, it is easier to edit the retorach.sh file to make it build the latest nightly, which is useful for testing things. i don't want that to be hidden away.

For NP2PI

It crash at the end when it not found a directory

@dankcushions Why my RETROARCH install crash ? Maybe i don't have the last one :(

https://gist.github.com/Darknior/eb3af61fb461366a9a41f52c290043fe

i think there's an error with the script here - i have a fix in mind and will look into this

dankcushions

@darknior for lr-hatari, i guess the retropie patch isn't working on the latest source code. paging @BuZz!

BuZz

@dankcushions I'll sort both issues. np2pi broke after I changed a build path the other day. the other is due to makefile changes upstream. But don't recommend lr-hatari emulator really.

BuZz

@darknior regarding the retroarch errors - Looks like you have a corrupt git checkout of the shaders - you should remove /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/shaders and re-install retro-arch. Corruption could point to sdcard problems.

I am also having issues with both np2pi and Commander Genius crashing while the installation script is running. I will place my relevant log files and error messages below.

Raspberry Pi 3B (not overclocked)
RetroPie 4.2.16
RetroPie installed on top of Raspbian
2.4A power supply

np2pi:

Could not successfully install NEC PC-9801 emulator
/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/np2pi/np2pi/bin/np2 not found

Commander Genius (shows as installed because it worked months ago, but updating currently fails and this has left cgenius unable to run):

Could not successfully install Commander Genius - Modern Interpreter for the Commander Keen Games (Vorticon and Galaxy Games)
/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/cgeneius/vfsroot/games not found

EDIT: Thank you BuZz! np2pi installation is now working for me.

Thanks @BuZz i have update NP2PI and LR-Hatari without any problem.
Do you write to not use lr-hatari because the original hatari emulator is better like ever ?

I always have my problem with RETROARCH :(

You are real for the SHADER directory, it was root access i don't know why ? I have change it for pi.
But now it is my retroarch.cfg it don't like and crash the update :(

I try many things but nothing works for me :(
I read there you write to remove the CONFIG dir and install again RETROARCH but it is impossible, i work so many days on my configs ...
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/9147/default-all-retroarch-cfg

I have try to remove the retroarch.cfg and expect it will create a new one but it crash too :(
Maybe if some one can share his file with me, i will use it to update and after i will update settings with mine.

Thanks
