RetrOS, Built on RetroPie!
-
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".
-
@Floob it should still update to 4.0.2to video the internal update script from the retropie sources
-

@Devil78 LOVE IT.... LOVE IT....! Where's the download, you did say end of November, it's now December!

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. -
@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!

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

it's being modified all the time https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation/commits/master
whatever changes in there are in each new version of retropie, or if you update emulationstation via the script.
-
@Devil78 is attract mode natively available through the set up because I didn't see it or is that something you added
-

They are currently independent advancements. However, to my understanding, they will be reviewed and considered for inclusion in RetroPie once each is finished.
-
@Devil78 OK I updated the script which now has attractmode, which wasn't there before, I installed it from source, I rebooted my pi and it reverted to a command prompt after the emulation station boot screen crashed, how do I get attract mode to automatically boot? And what's going on here?
