      I meant in the terminal - in your screenshot you did not use cd /home/pi/.reicast/mappings you first did cd to another path , then on a separate line you did /home/pi/.reicast/mappings which is not the same thing.

      The folder should be there on winscp - but make sure you have it set to show hidden files/folders (starting with a dot)

      what do i do for emu.cfg file pointing to the new map file ?

        @Hydro You need to use putty or console, and go to the location I specified above. Quit emulation station within retropie, and you will be at the console
        cd /opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin

            happened

            This happens to me for dosbox on every pi i update. I have to go back into retropie-setup and individually redownload the program. However if i updated to 4.0 beta 2 doing full install forst apple ii and mame4all wouldnt work at all however if i chose quick install first then did full install after it was fine. Not sure if any of that might help you.

              @edmaul69 , you think I should uninstall the Reicast core and re-download?

                  @edmaul69, nope, no dice. Dreamcast was working too, something broke it. I never messed with it.

                    @GreenHawk84 yeah for me after the update dreamcast stopped recognizing pal games. (Crazy taxi's) I just figured they changed something in it but maybe its messed up too. I cant find a u.s. Version of the games to test.
