@escc1986 said in RetroArch Help Request ::

any way you can send me your retroarch.cfg ? (so i can copy and paste )

this is all there is ... but there are a bunch on mappings in the /opt/retropie/configs/dreamcast/mappings folder (image below)

# Settings made here will only override settings in the global retroarch.cfg if placed above the #include line

input_remapping_directory = "/opt/retropie/configs/dreamcast/"

#include "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg"

No, you shouldn't - this will break the other systems that are working right now.

Please provide the info asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first and also a detailed (verbose) log from running a dreamcast game, as mentioned in that topic.

Verbose log (if relevant):

This is not a verbose log, just a normal log file. Make sure you toggle verbose logging in the runcommand launch menu when starting the game.

@mito where do i find in ssh the Verbose log ?

ReadyPlayaWon

@escc1986

from the runcommand menu select "L" Launch with verbose logging

then using WINScp or PuTTy ... ssh into RetroPie and then log file is in

/dev/shm/run/runcommand.log

output will look something like this ... (i'm running Guilty Gear Isuka using lr-flycast)

@ReadyPlayaWon

thank you for explaing , its late here need to get some rest , will report back here in the morning

escc1986

I slept on it

There was nothing I could do , I tried a lot of things I think I completely ruined the whole RetroArch.cfg

I just decided to start from scratch with a fresh new start

I will be tweaking and orginizing my Pi all day

If I come across any issues I will post in the forums

Than you both for all the help

Appreciate it
