Psx emulator controls not working
-
@sleve_mcdichael Thank you, that's much clearer than you showed me the command line. So I used the cat command as you showed and it comes back at me with a message saying no such file or directory.
-
@mtlhd1011 have you turned off or rebooted the device since the log was created?
/dev/shm
is a virtual location that only exists in memory in order to reduce unnecessary read/write operations to the SD card, and does not persist from one session to another. You're on the right track, you should just repeat the process, all at once: enable the verbose log, recreate the problem, then immediately go and fetch the log. -
@sleve_mcdichael Ah thank you, that was the issue, I shut off the system, I did not know these logs don't hang around. I am new to this stuff so you'll have to forgive me, but I am willing to learn whatever I can if you wish to show me. Ok so here is the log info below.

@mitu Hello! Did I do it wrong?
-
@mtlhd1011 Looking at the log file, it doesn't seem the you're using the latest version of the packages included in RetroPie - your version of RetroArch is from almost 3 years ago
Built: Oct 9 2018 [INFO] Version: 1.7.5 [INFO] Git: c9c6c5a
Also, from the logs it looks like RetroArch is not using the RetroPie default joypad configuration files - which are created when you configure your controller in EmulationStation. Did you reset the RetroArch configuration for the PS1 system ?
How did you install RetroPie ?
-
@mitu Thanks for reviewing it! That's weird, I just updated RetroPie and all the packages less than a week ago through the RetroPie setup menu. The updates took a very long time. When I checked the PSX emulator package for updates it said it's up to date too. I did not build this system, it was a pre-built one I received as a gift. I haven't used it in a while and saw that there have been quite a few updates so that's why I updated everything. Now I'm wishing I hadn't because I unknowingly broke a few things. I have reset all RetroArch configs to default, and saved it, tried manually entering them and saving it, changed the control type from retropad to retropad with analog and saved it, yet no combination I make changes the way the controls act in the PSX emulator. Even while I'm in a game in PSX emulator, if I hit F1 on the keyboard to open the RetroArch overlay, I can go into the controls and look at the mapping, it all looks like it should, so I'm confused as to why it's not working right.

firstly, we don't support third party builds, we only support the official retropie image, or a manual install of the script. please read: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first
secondly, even if you were using official retropie, you would be on an unsupported version of the underlying OS (stretch), i believe. i am not sure if this has an effect on updating - i think there's no binaries for it?
in any case, it sounds like to fix your issue and/or get support, you need to start again with the official image: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/

@dankcushions the software all appears to be the official RetroPie software, if there's a way to verify that I can check. As for the underlying OS yes it is Raspbian stretch I believe. Since I updated everything, when I go into RetroPie setup it pops up a message about stretch not being supported with the most current version of RetroPie (like you have stated) and basically saying things will function as best as they can. I don't know what to do about that. I really don't want to have to wipe everything that's on there though, I have progress on several games that I can play that I don't wish to lose. I don't know if there is a way to just update or replace the underlying OS without losing everything, but if there is, I'd like to try that. Any suggestions?

@mtlhd1011 You can back-up your ROMs, saves, BIOS files and restore them on a new system after installation - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/#backup-option-2

it wouldn’t matter - even official retropie that someone else installed is not supported, because neither you nor we know the configuration. although it doesn’t matter in this case as you are running such an old version and can’t update anyway.

i agree with mitu above. there is no supported way of updating the OS in place.

@mitu Thank you for the instructions, I am currently copying all those files now. Looks like it might take a while. I will start with a clean install once that completes. Stay tuned! Haha
-
Ok I have now installed the latest image myself and transferred over my roms. It looks like I'll need to add some emulators as some of my systems are missing. The good news is the PlayStation controls work now and so do the hotkeys! There seems to be some issue though, when I start a PSX game now at the very beginning it says no bios detected and the games look worse than before, like very pixelated and rough. I did back up my bios folder from my prior build but didn't transfer those files yet as I feared I might transfer the problem also. What should I do about that?

have you see our documentation?
BIOS info on same page.
-
@dankcushions No I haven't seen that until now. If it's required, I'm surprised it's not in the initial setup page, that's what I followed. So I see it tells me which ones are supported for what emulator but it doesn't say where to get them, how to install them or select one. Is there another page about that?

if everything was included in the first installation page it would be a very long page. if you want specific information about a specific system, there's dedicated pages for that. i think that's a sensible compromise.
So I see it tells me which ones are supported for what emulator but it doesn't say where to get them
linking or instructing how to get copyright files would not be a good idea for this project. please see rule 1
, how to install them
it says where to play them in https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/#bios - you transfer in the same way as game files - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms/
or select one.
the emulator will select the right one automatically. if you do not have an appropriate one in the appropriate place, you'll see the error you saw previously.

@dankcushions I can understand that. Maybe a link to the bios section after mentioning it briefly in the first installation section would be helpful I think, kind of like it does with the roms. I didn't realize the bios were proprietary as well, so mentioning that somewhere would help first timers like me understand that better too I think. Thanks for the info, I saw the location section but thought maybe it was something that has to be installed as a program (thinking computer bios) vs. a file drop. I'll see if I can find it and get it going.
I also have an additional question related to my new install. I have one of those nespi+ cases with the fan on it. I was reading their scripts don't work right anymore with the new version of RetroPie. Is that true? I saw someone made a work around with some generic code, but I don't understand it fully.

Update on this, I copied over the bios for each of the emulators that were on my machine previously. Once I did that it broke my PSX emulator again. What I found was that there were a few bios on there that were not supported by the version of the rearmed emulator it currently uses. So I think it picked a bad bios which broke functionality. Once I pulled those unsupported bios from the folder, it functions normally once again. This must've been what happened when I updated my system previously. I also see commodore 64 is broken currently too, probably the same thing there I'll need to dig into. I did manage to get the nespi-case script installed also, I will monitor it to see if that portion has issues.
