New Hypseus and lr-Daphne to add on Retropie-Setup

SuperFromND

@skj Navigate to /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/libretrocores, then create a new file named lr-daphne.sh, and paste the above shell script. Save the file, and you're pretty much done.

You'll want to install something like WinSCP before doing this; it makes the process a lot easier than trying to do it over PuTTY or on the Pi itself.

Ok I did all of that but I don't see any option to run lr-daphne or select it as an emulator? Is there anything else I need to do? I'm a complete newbie with GitHub stuff and scripts any help would be much appreciated.

SuperFromND

@skj You'll need to run the script from RetroPie Setup to install the emulator. It'll be in the "experimental" section.

@supercatfooz

Can you explain step by step how to do this as i dont know how to install the lr-daphne.sh from the retropie setup menu. Thanks

SuperFromND

@skj See here.

@supercatfooz

The lr-daphne is not showing in the experimental section. That is where im getting confused i cant install the emulator as it does not appear in that section :s

@skj

Did you update your RetroPie-Setup script first from the root menu?

skj

@mediamogul

Yes, I created the above mentioned lr-daphne.sh script, placed it in the above mention folder, then updated the retropie setup script and nothing for lr-daphne appears in the manage pacakages experimental section, that where I'm up to :s

@skj said in Hypseus new Daphne fork to try on Retropie:

make

i would suggest you change make to
make platform=pi -j4

Thank you so much for your clear instructions i was able to install it.

do i have to create any config files or folders now because i dont see anything in the /opt/retropie/libretrocores for lr-daphne?

reading above posts i dont see any config files created like this

/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /home/pi/daphne/daphne_libretro.so --config

sorry for asking all these questions but i really want to test this and im not sure on what to do next ?

ive only tested on a raspberry pi3 b+. I decided to use kodi and bbc iplayer kodi seems to be crashing randomly (when i say crashing i mean freezing) as well.

Ill need to see if i can find my pi2 and test on that then test on an earlier retropie version as well.

This freezing only happens on the pi ive only tested in stretch on a 3b+. Instead of jumping to conclusions ill test with a pi2 and a pi3 and various memory cards. Any feedback on the pi versions you guys are testing on if your getting the freezing would in lr daphne would he to debug this

SuperFromND

@grant2258 I'm using RetroPie 4.4 on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B (not to be confused with the 3B+).

dmmarti

Testing on a Pi 3B (not a B+) .. I get that same strange freezing occurring.

I also don't have any sound and the controls (Logitech F310 wired gamepad) does not work in-game. I can still press SELECT + X and get to the Retroarch GUI, so my controller is working. I just can't input any coins and start the game yet.

I tested the M.A.C.H.3 rom.

this is so confusing and frustrating, can someone please post a clear guide on to set this up, where all the files and folders are to be place. im getting so lost on here, so far all i have managed to do is install the emulator from the experimental section - the normal version of daphne was easy to set up but this is crazy - please help me out

Aside for testing/feedback purposes, is lr-daphne (or what the the thread was originally about, hypseus) a viable alternative yet? My main interest is in the controller mapping - that's my main gripe with daphne is that if I switch controller to a different port, or change controllers, mapping is all messed up.
