Raspberry Pi Zero 2W Build

Resolved the Amiga screen size issue. Auto Height is now called Auto Crop (though it remains Auto Height on the GUI in this version). Thanks to the help I got from @midwan on the Amiberry Github in solving this.

Got a bit of a problem with .HDF files on the EmulationStation side of things. The RetroPie guides say that HDF can be loaded, this is so but they do not show up in ES and do not appear in Amiga entry in the systems.cfg file.

My guess is the working solution is to make a dummy file for ES to pick up on then create a custom configuration of it that loads the .HDF file.

Seems that we didn't add it to
platforms.cfg, will fix this - thank you for the heads up. -

They should appear now, if you update RetroPie-Setup and then re-install Amiberry/P-UAE.

@mitu I have updated. They appear for me now :) Thanks.
Does LR-PUAE have a JIT ? Standard Amiberry no longer does, I'm in need of an Amiga emulator with a JIT to run some of the more demainding CPU games like Gloom Deluxe.
Also If anyone has a list of the posts or any suggestions for which are good, let me know.

Yes, I think it does.

Doesn't Amiberry Lite or the Amiberry version included in RetroPie have JIT ?

@mitu Amyberry doesn't any more, the button is there but it cannot be selected. I'm newly back to this, the last version I used was 4.x which did. Amiberry Lite does have a JIT but I couldn't find it on the download list. Is it part of RetroPie?
Is there a plan to update Amiberry at all? The source version is still v3.3. I seem to recall there was some sort of lock put on it becasue of compatability issues with 4.0.

Not yet, but it will be at some point.

No, it's not. Source version is the same as binary version - 5.7.1 for RPIs. If it's still at 3.3 you're not using the latest RetroPie-Setup.

@mitu It is possible my script is old but I only downloaded and installed from scratch the other week. If it's fixed to a newer version then there is no problem.

The switch from 3.3 to 5.x was done in 2022, after 4.8 was released. I suggest you update since some of the scriptmodules need updating in order to properly install and configure the binaries.

Not much luck with LR-PUAE. I've tried all the settings that I can think of but Gloom Deluxe runs slower than it does on Amiberry. The later 3D games may just be beyond the capabilities of the Zero2 at the moment.
