      @timekills said :

      While this may be obvious to those with Linux experience, a simple wget from the command line will allow the download and copy of the @jonsim updated reicast files rather than downloading to a USB stick etc.

      cd /opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin
      sudo wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/dh1umn50tqgxrg1/reicast?dl=0
      sudo mv reicast reicast_old #if you want to be safe and backup your old reicast file
      sudo cp reicast?dl=0 reicast
      sudo chmod 755 reicast

      @timekills this doesn't work on raspberry pi3, with a completely updated retropie, and freshly installed reicast. Tested today. Selecting a game just goes back to the main menu. Yes, I made sure file permissions were correct.

        This should do it. The old one had dl=0 which makes it download the html page.

         cd /opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin
         sudo mv reicast reicast_old    #if you want to be safe and backup your old reicast file
         sudo rm reicast    #delete the old one if you didn't back it up with the step above
         sudo wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/dh1umn50tqgxrg1/reicast?dl=1
         sudo chmod 755 reicast

          @madmodder123 Might just be the way I typed the command, but when I did it, it downloaded a file called "reicast?dl=1". mving the file to just be named reicast seems to work though, and it works just fine.

            Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to do it though Filezilla instead of using USB. I recently got mine setup at a local convention (I did installed the games btw). I'm still new to it and for some reasons i keep getting permission denied whenever i did stuff. Like trying to rename the old reicast file.

            Honestly, I do want to know how to fix this so i can play Dreamcast games. If anyone knows, then explain how to get it working.

              @jonathanknight You cannot do it via USB, since the transfer method doesn't work for arbitrary files. You can copy the file(s) directly to /home/pi, then use the command line (see the commands above) to copy/move then to the right location.

                    For me this worked but, i too got a file called reicast?dl=1 that i had to
                    sudo mv reicast\dl=1 reicast
                    then
                    sudo chmod 755 reicast

                    Maybe >sudo wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/dh1umn50tqgxrg1/reicast is enough?

                    Thanks to all.
