      @meleu wow didn't know about RetroPie-Manager :S

      Very similar indeed. There are some very interesting features there although I think I would go more "user friendly" in some parts like editing the ES config or the autostart script for instance.

      Either way, kudos to @Botolo for a great project :)

        @fechy unfortunately @Botolo seems to be very busy nowadays and doesn't have time to maintain it anymore...

        I'm putting some feature requests on your issue tracker now ;-)

          @fechy I like the idea of yours in that it isn't derived from recalbox (no slight against their project by any means but it's good to have something independent)

          one idea that's probably beyond the scope of your initial goals would be to have some kind of rom validation primarily for mame sets, so people would just know if it's valid as soon as they transfer their set (similar to what's done with the bios on botolo's fork)

          If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

          Also if you want a solution to your problems read this first: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

            @herb_fargus Thats a great idea. I believe it can be done by reading the Google Drive file with all the romset checks.

            There is definitely a lot of nice features to implement. I'll try to deliver as much as possible.

              Hi all, I've just uploaded a new version with some design improvement and, more importantly, a System Health Dashboard!

                Very cool man!!

                Well, you asked... Then here is my personal list in order of preference:

                1. Edit the RetroArch config file
                2. Edit system specific retroarch.cfg files
                3. Edit/Add splash screen
                4. Manage your BIOS files

                It doesn't matter the order:

                • Edit the Emulation Station config file
                • Edit the autostart.sh script
                • View the Emulation Station log file

                  This is a pretty cool project.

                  I haven't installed it myself, but based on the pictures I guess for starters I would like to see the temperature of the Raspberry Pi on the Stats page.

                    this is awesome!

                    BUT, I can't get it to work on my x86 build lol.
                    Also, it wanted it to use pi as a user, so I guess this is for raspberry pi only build..

                      also I think the install could be simplified if it were converted to a retropie module (you could use this

                      https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/supplementary/retropie-manager.sh

                      and this

                      https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/supplementary/mobilegamepad.sh

                      as an example.

                        Yeah sorry. I haven't tried with anything else but the PI. I've however remove the restriction to install as user "pi". Maybe this helps. You'll have to adapt the default installation path and in the config of the app the path to Retropie itself.
                        If you want to try and you make it work, send me a pull request on Github ;)

                          That is an excellent idea. I'll look into it :)

                              this looks great.

                              Is it to be used from a pc connecting to the pi or directly from the pi.

                              It'd be great to be able to use from windows and just drag and drop the files into each folder.
