    Hey-

    RetroPie 4.7 (updated over 4.7 image downloaded for retropie.org)
    Raspberry Pi 4B, 4GB ram
    Raspian Buster
    4 amp power supply from Vilros
    8BitDO SN30, generic USB N64 controller, Vilros USB genesis controller.

    So I have tried to edit the platforms.cfg file with

    pcengine_theme="tg16"
    pcengine_platform="tg16"
    

    but the graphic in Emulation Station still shows the PC Engine logo. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Dave

      @DavidDraper did you reinstall the pcengine emulator after that change? That's needed to trigger the config update.

        Make sure you create your own platforms.cfg in /opt/retropie/configs/all rather than editing the default one.

          @BuZz Hey - thanks for the help. I did add the ROMS after the update. I did not install any emulators, but I did add the 2.0 and 3.0 bios. I did update the platforms.cfg file in /opt/retropie/configs/all. I have restarted emulation station and RetroPie itself since making the change.

          I had already created a platforms.cfg file to change the Sega Master Drive to Sega Genesis previously.
          The whole file reads:

          megadrive_theme="genesis"
          megadrive_platform="genesis"
          pcengine_theme="tg16"
          pcengine_platform="tg16"
          

          I also found this forum post here that recommends editing the es_systems.cfg file in /etc/emulationstation/. That did not help either.

          What do you think?

          Dave

            @BuZz - I did not install any emulators because they seemed to already be there; the lr-beetle-pce-fast and lr-beetle-supergrafx emulators are in the run command menu.

              @DavidDraper you need to reinstall one after changing platform.cfg data.
