      For the Raspberry Pi 5, is the 64-bit OS Lite image preferable?

        Yes, use the 64bit OS version if you intend to do a manual installation.

          I installed RetroPie manually, and everything is working fine!
          I am going to try Vulkan so I can run some Naomi and Naomi 2 games that don't run very well under OpenGL. Besides reinstalling RetroArch and SDL2, do I have to reinstall the cores?

            Any update on the Pi5 Image?
            How does the PI5 handle System 32?
            What Mame is used, so I can pre-grab the library. etc.

              @Jiryn What mame is used?
              I would say the same as on the other images, so either 2003 as a default (which imho should be replaced with m2k3+, but that is just me and my 2ct) or the ones you install via retropie-setup (and personally i doubt that a pi5 will perform well on current-mame, but maybe at least be playable for some older titles (e.g. even asteroid with newer mame(s) (.251 was the last version I tried on the pi4) wasn't really playable)

                @Jiryn An overclocked pi4 ran system32 games on mame2016. With a pi5, I'm using fbneo. I wouldn't use mame2003 again unless you want to play Killer Instinct or similar games.

                  Hi Mitu,

                  I can't get sound with USB audio. Is there a way to set it on the Pi5. Am I the only one having this problem?

                    Probably not, but also unlikely it's a Pi5 specific issue. Open a separate topic and post the details of your problem and system, along with any configuration you may have tried.

                      Question, Does OpenBor work on pi5?
                      I'm not getting mine to load, is this a pi5 issue that's still being sorted?

                          Apologies if this is unrelated, but I have never been able to get neogeo working on the pi 5. I am using fbneo as the emulator, and trying to run it from "neogeo" as a system, not from the arcade system menu.
                          This works fine on my pi 4.
                          Any ideas?

                            No related to Pi5. Please open a separate topic and provide the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

                                I was using FBNeo for everything, but System 32 seems slow.
                                I think I was using Mame2010 and still getting some weird results on games like Jurassic Park.

                                Though, I may be remembering wrong since it looks great in my video

                                Basically, my PI is so I can play and stream Arcade Games, 32X, and legacy consoles I don't own (The Ataris)

                                    @DTEAM I'm not really sure why the 64 bit restriction is in place for Solarus, but it seems to build and run. I'll test a few games and see if we can remove that restriction.

                                      I confirm. It works well on Pi 5. I tested it with few games . I removed the restriction in the script to run it.

                                        Solarus should be available now for 64bit, there are no more restrictions for it. @DTEAM thank you for testing.

                                          I don't think my case will allow for an SDD.. hell it wouldn't even let me have the official fan/thermal kit

                                            @Jiryn unfortunately yes that case doesn't seem to allow for hats.

                                            Manual install follow these instructions https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Manual-Installation/

                                            The only extra bit is first you'd need to flash raspberry pi os 64bit lite onto your SD card, then those instructions above will get you retropie onto it with the main packages.
