N64 roms will not work...

colking

@jonnykesh yes... thank you.

@mitu I keep trying to download the image from that link and it keeps failing...

@rbaker I do have several roms. Been trying super Mario 64 and only the volume works. It allows me to play but it's a black screen...

mitu

@colking Can't help you there, download works for me, so it's not the site or the file. How are you downloading the file ? Browser, any download program ?

jonnykesh

@colking Just downloaded it as a test. No problems and downloaded in about a minute or so. Try a different browser.

colking

@mitu I'll try another browser when I get home tonight. Thanks

@jonnykesh I still can't download from the retropie site... I've downloaded several ipmages elsewhere though. I just can't seem to download from this site... wtf?!?! Keep failing after about 60mb. yet I've downloaded a 128gb, 64gb and 16gb image files from other sites... tried every browser and still nothing...

If your Retropie SD card has enough free space for the image and your Pi has internet access, you could try to download the image from Retropie's command console and copy it to your PC from there. To do that, exit Emulation Station and enter the following command:

wget https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/releases/download/4.3/retropie-4.3-rpi2_rpi3.img.gz

That should download the image to the home directory of Retropie's standard user pi. The docs tell you how to transfer files via network or an usb stick from the Pi to your PC for further installation.

Not certain if this what the others where trying to convey earlier. I also couldn't get the N64 roms to work. I had transferred the files to the Pie 3 and I tried and unzipped all roms in the Pi folder on SD card instead of unzipping them on my PC. is that what everyone else is doing? I haven't tried to change the code to see what it does. Sorry if this unneeded statement as I am new at this with Pi's
