      @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.

      Once installed, I can just add new packages like I've done before through the menus right??

        @Jiryn that's right. The GUI/ emulation station you can head into retropie menu and select setup, that runs the script that you can use to install other retroarch cores and emulators you want

          Oh btw, not sure anyone else has this problem but just an FYI, don't use run ahead with the saturn_beetle core. It absolutely destroys the framerate with that core, at least it did for me. I couldn't for the life of me figure out why Saturn games had suddenly stopped working as well and had forgotten I added in latency run ahead a few weeks back

            This might be a stupid question, but is it true to say that right now Retropie supports Vulkan via Retropie -Setup for:

            Dolphin

            and not support Vulkan for

            PPSSPP, Lr-PPSSPP, lr-flycast-dev, lr-flycast

                @DTEAM It supports it. Just set the video driver in RetroArch to Vulkan and create an override for the core or game. An exception to this is the standalone PPSSPP that needs x11.

                  I don't have Vulkan as an option in RetroArch Drivers-> Video . I only see (gl, sdl2 and glcore)

                    @DTEAM Yes, in the current state of development, you have to manually add the green lines from this commit to enable Vulkan:
                    https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/3785/commits/1b98fb55250bb02ac55f47288d1fb84990a93bc5. After that reinstall RetroArch .

                      PPSSPP works for me with your advises and this command line in emulators.cfg

                      ppsspp_test = "XINIT-WM: /opt/retropie/emulators/ppsspp; /opt/retropie/emulators/ppsspp/PPSSPPSDL --fullscreen %ROM%; popd"
                      

                      For NAOMI, Atomiswave and Dreamcast it doesn't work (won't load), but now I see the Vulkan option in the RetroArch driver selection.
                      Should I select something else in the RetroArch GUI or it's something to add in the command line?

                        @DTEAM Try reinstalling lr-flycast-dev and test with this emulator again.

                        Good news that we can run standalone PPSSPP under Vulkan. Performance is better than with Libretro. I hope this solution will be permanent because Vulkan provides a great boost to PSP games.

                          Thanks, now it works!!! Big difference in performance

                          I don't know for standalone MAME if anything is feasible for Vulkan. Will see

                            This is a great shout, it always bugged me that ppsspp wasn't working in vulkan simply due to a longstanding bug. It's good this windowing function gets around that. God of War for example plays at 60fps in vulkan without needing to turn on frameskipping.

                            In OpenGL it's stuck around the 45-50fps

                              Good Morning Friends,

                              yesterday i started to do the manual installation for the first time by using the linked tutorial.
                              Everything went good so far, i also followed the recommendation to add "kernel=kernel8.img" to the config.txt of the boot folder.

                              Only issue i have...my Raspberry Pi5 does not show up in my Wifi-Devices List :/
                              To understand: i dont use a PC / SSH to add files to my Pi, i use my smartphone via WIFI and a File-Commander.
                              I never had this issue with the Pis 1-4, so i think i forgot something which is enabled by default in the official images.
                              Is there any option to be activated to make the Pi visible in the connected WIFI-Device-List?

                              Thanks in advance and have a great day!

                                @sirhenrythe5th Well, I cannot really speak for the exact use case you're going for - I'd search for broadcast settings online - but have you checked if you can connect to SSH via the IP? Meaning, getting a SSH client and trying to connect? I seem to recall that SSH comes turned off by default in more recent Rapsberry OS releases, so it'll be a good first step to check whether it's active but undiscoverable, or whether it's not discoverable because it's inactive.

                                Just a thought.

                                        So I finally got a Pi 5…. Only to find that retropie isn’t ready yet. Checked out batocera but it’s still in beta too. So I think I’ll wait patiently for retropie as I did with the rpi 4. Godspeed all you devs! And thanks for all the work that you do the wait is always worth it

                                          Folks, i managed the manual installation and am pretty astonished that it went that well ;)
                                          Everything works fine, i just got one little issue and wanted to ask here if anyone has similar experiences.

                                          First of all my system:

                                          • Raspberry 5 (4GB), genuine Powersupply
                                          • installed Retropie 4.4.8. on top of Bookworm 64-Bit Lite
                                          • no changes but added "kernel=kernel8.img" to the config.txt of the "BOOT"-Folder

                                          The issue i have is a well known one...but i dont know the context with this new OS:

                                          "lvl0: VolumeControl::init() - Failed to find mixer elements"

                                          I did not change anything on the sound-options, Devices are set on their default values "SYSTEM" & "HDMI".

                                          What is new on my setup: for the first time i am using Videos in the gamlists scraped by "skyscraper".
                                          And these are the only items, that are affected by this message.
                                          Click-Sound in ES and InGame-Music do play always, just the Videos stay silent...sometimes.
                                          And this makes it even harder to find out what the problem is, sometimes the Videos play with sound, sometimes they don´t and the error-message appears in the terminal.

                                          I tried to search in the forums, but the majority of mixer-errors were pointed to older ALSA-errors as far as i see, and ALSA is no choosable option anymore.

                                          Has anyone an idea where i can start to search for a solution? ^^

                                          Thanks and a good start in this week!

                                            @IsabelleXL Just curious, is there something preventing you from following the manual install instructions? For what it's worth, I've installed mine manually from day 1 and have been running it without issues since. Folks here are happy to help as well. If you have a Pi5 and would like to run RetroPie on it, I think there's no better time to start than now!
