      Hm, interesting. In my case it's really just a waiting game, it is quite memory intensive.

      Suggestion to try out: exit ES and everything else, and try to run it from the terminal. See if it alleviates the memory constraints. How much memory and microSD free space do you have?

        1`giga (even try to make more space but didnt help...)
        will try to quit the ES and try again.

          @shavecat Yeah, go at it with removing ES on the memory front.

          I take it it's the standard GPU split as well?

              You'll have to be patient, a few files take longer to compile.

                      @pjft here's a picture : https://imgur.com/a/ipYjIDe

                      it's not that big of a deal to be honest, but it's there hehe.

                      My setup is simple. I have nothing plugged in, my controller is a dualshock 4 controller.

                      I might add that i'm using a unnoficial image.

                      I will try again on a fresh rpi4 with the weekly image to see if it's any different.

                        The Dualshock4 has a touchpad which might get detected as a mouse, probably that's why a pointing device gets shown.

                          Which Pi are you guys running on?
                          I am using an overclocked Pi4 and am getting pretty crappy framerate. Is there anything that I can configure? Compile flags for instance.

                          Thanks

                            @langest on the pi3B things run smooth as butter. Maybe it's something that can be addressed with compiler flags, but what resolution are you on?

                              Game runs for me, but framerate is quite laggy, feels half the speed it should have.
                              I'm running on a rpi4, I shouldn't have any problems... any ideas?

                                I noticed this comment only now. I'm on Pi4 and have the same exact issue :/ if feels like it skips every second frame. I've got the same issue with a couple of other ports, namely Prince of Persia.`

                                    No settings changed in vvvvvv, tried to see if there was such an option. Running my pi at 1920×1080.

                                      @langest it wasn't about vvvvvv per se, but wondering if it could be similar to this: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/24602/disappearing-sprites-possible-frameskip-issue

                                        Great stuff. I already own this on my phone but will buy it on GOG just to be able to put it on my Pi!
                                        I wish all new retrogames would be compatible with the Pi systems. Hotline Miami would be on the top of my list.

                                          It was my initial guess already. I've checked with tvservice -s and forced it via runcommand, I'm running 1920x1080@60Hz :/

                                            @pamput I am at a loss then for now. I need to get my pi 4 set up and test things out. Might just be a compiler flags thing for sure.
