        Seconded! Thanks very much, @inolen

        Separately, I've asked it before but I'll go again. Which games are worth playing? Beyond Virtua Cop, Resi and Rally.

            @adambegood Tomb Raider : the Last Revelation, it's brilliant.

              @retropieuser555 crashes should be fix with latest. However, Armada will have some pretty nasty hiccups every few minutes on the Pi until I get a changes I've been working on the past few days done.

                @inolen 4x4 Evo crashes as well, randomly about the start. Great work, THX.

                  @adambegood the worms games are fun games to play when you have friends over. Starlancer seems fun (haven't played far into yet) if you're into space combat simulators. Armada is supposed to also have good multiplayer.

                    The Last Revelation runs well, there's some choppiness at times but nothing that distracts from the experience. The game looks bloody gorgeous on Dreamcast as does Resident Evil 2.

                      I can confirm (Tomb Raider) The Last Revelation works well, as does Tomb Raider Chronicles. Worms Armageddon and World Party both work fine as well.

                      Currently running:
                      Retropie 4.8.9 on a Pi Zero 2W (Overclock Settings: CPU 1400Mhz)
                      ES-DE on a GMKtec K6 (Windows 11, 32GB RAM)

                        Tomb Raider: Last Revelation, crashed on intro. Sega rally 2 works great.

                          @rott42 Did you update? There was an update pushed today that I believes address the crashes mentioned in this thread.

                                @inolen Thanks for the update! I've had a quick go this morning and the crash is gone, for reference I played as far as:-

                                Virtua Cop I played to the first boss on beginner
                                Resident Evil 2 I played to the first save in the police station
                                Armada played about 5 minutes shooting things.

                                I see what you mean about Armada, it has little pauses when you blow up an opposing ship but it still plays very nicely otherwise

                                Pi 5 4GB

                                  @quicksilver if that's the case, @AdamBeGood try rebinding the trigger in the UI.

                                  I've tried a rebind now, still no joy although it did work once bizarrely! As in one acceleration worked. Input displays as +axis5 now rather than just axis5. I'm using an Elite Controller, I haven't noticed it not working with any other games but I'll try another XBox controller that I have somewhere to try that.

                                    @adambegood can you try rebinding the trigger (in the redream menu) to one of the face buttons temporarily just to see if it really is the trigger causing the issue?

                                      I've tried using RB as Right Trigger and that is absolutely fine. I would say that the trigger would work without problem for one of the face buttons but I can try that, sure.

                                      Edit: Right Trigger is fine as A, it seems to be the analog nature of accelerating that causes the issue. This isn't a big issue anyway, I can cope with using RB for this game as Accelerate. It's not as nice but that is okay.

                                        @adambegood binding it to +axis5 instead of just axis5 I thought would have done the trick.

                                          Hmmm weird. Don't worry about it, it is very strange. The game is perfectly playable with RB as Accelerate

                                            @adambegood How does redream handle swapping disks for RE2? I recall PSX emulators having issues with this specific game as you needed to load the cleared save from the other disc in order to start scenario B.
