@LinuxArcadeGuy as i stated that earlier i agree with retrOS.

RetrOS, Built on RetroPie!

LinuxArcadeGuy

Here's a great example of another distribution built on retro pie but calling itself something else

@LinuxArcadeGuy I think calling it a distribution is stretching it. Thats me installing Attract Mode on top of RetroPie so people can experiment with a different front end. Its basically vanilla RetroPie with a different FE. Its not supported or maintained, so very much a demonstration rather than something that is suggested a distribution. The only name I have given it is "RetroPie with Attract Mode".

LinuxArcadeGuy

@Floob it should still update to 4.0.2to video the internal update script from the retropie sources

@Devil78 I think you forgot to provide the link.

EDIT: I googled about "pixel os" and look what I've found: https://susestudio.com/a/ee8A1P/pixel-os :/

LinuxArcadeGuy

@meleu @Devil78 maybe you should call it Retro PixelOS? Otherwise someone may get angry because it already exists

Devil78

Piexel OS ---> PixelOS.
Ok I googled too without results... Aniway I call it PixelOS not Pixel OS
This is Initial Test on a Virtual Machine

@LinuxArcadeGuy
I working on it. New name, new logos, new platform, (X86-32bit not supported before), retropie 4.1.4. And, i hope, Emulation Station with multi language support.

LinuxArcadeGuy

@Devil78 sweet, it would be nice if you could have added attract mode, I'm a firm believer in that retropie group needs to switch, as emulationststion hasn't been updated or improved in over 3 years!

@LinuxArcadeGuy said in PixelOS:

emulationststion hasn't been updated or improved in over 3 years!

Actually, some truly fantastic work is currently being done with Emulation Station in the form of a grid view addition and video previews. I believe there are even a few really nice features from the 'Kid Friendly' ES variant that are being considered for integration. I'm not sure when any of these additions will make their way into an official RetroPie release, but the work shown so far by the developers is amazing.

LinuxArcadeGuy

@mediamogul cool, because you don't really see that on the surface it must be in the form somewhere I've never browse the forum because it's spamed like crazy

Rion

@LinuxArcadeGuy He is talking about this forum not ES official forums.

LinuxArcadeGuy

@Rion is emulation station being advanced Officially or are they user mods? And if it's official when is the perspective release date for a complete version with all the new features ?

Devil78

@LinuxArcadeGuy aniway, Attract Mode is present in this OS, installed with the Retropie-Setup script. It's can be installed directly from binary or source using standard ubuntu tools but i preferred the Retropie-setup script for better integration with all emulators.
