Older version of Retroarch in RPie. Running Linux Mint on Intel Nuc
-
I have Retropie running on my NUC, but the retroarch is the older version (green/grey)
Deleted the version I had and reinstalled +upgraded retropie, but still have that version. Is this the default version that's used and is there a way to upgrade? I've upgraded via the cores menu, but still the same. KODI upgraded though when I was running upgrade commands.
I did a search but did not find anything.
Thank you. -
It does say 1.4.1 though in the corner, but it is the older look. Does it just use the old style GUI?
-
@lurkout you can switch to the new gui by first going to retropie-setup -> configuration / tools -> retroarch and installing the assets. then using the configuration editor in advanced mode and setting the global
menu_drivertoxmb(or manually via editing of/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfgwe still use RGUI by default on retropie.

@BuZz Thanks a lot, any specific reason for using RGUI as default? Better performance with more systems?
Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything since I thought I had the old version. -
@lurkout performance / familiarity. We don't use retroarch as a frontend, so there is less need for xmb. I'm quite happy leaving it with the boring old gui for now anyway - but users can switch if they want.
