Skyscraper stuck on version 3.7.7 for Raspberry pi 5.

[Scraperdude]

Hi everyone

I'm experiencing the following error when trying to use Skyscraper with my Pi5:

The version of Skyscraper you have installed is incompatible with options used by this script. Please update Skyscraper to the latest version to continue

When I update it defaults to 3.7.7. I see the latest version is 3.9.

Here are my specs

-Raspberry Pi 5 8GB
-Coolwell For Raspberry Pi 5 Power Supply 27W USB-C PD Power Supply Output 5.1V/5A, 9V/3A, 12V/2.25A, 15V/1.8A ETL Listed-GaN PD 5A 27W with Switch ON/OFF
-SD Image made from Retropie website (Retropie 4.8)*

So far I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, then updating it to no avail.

Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Update your RetroPie-Setup script and then re-install/update Skyscraper.

Our 4.8 image is not compatible with the Pi5 - what image did you specifically use for installation ?

@mitu I followed this guide to install RetroPie.

Should I then abandon the Pi5 and get a Pi4 instead?

Not yet.

When I update it defaults to 3.7.7. I see the latest version is 3.9.

Not sure what version of RetroPie-Setup you're on, but the latest version of RetroPie-Setup will install the 3.14 version of Skyscraper (latest, at this time). So, make sure you're fully updated before attempting the installation/update again.
