@EctoOne that makes sense ... but how do i load a game if i never get to an interface the specify the game ??
-
@dunnieboy You need to install uae4arm from the RetroPie Setup first. I think it's under optional packages. After a reboot the system should show up with something like +Start UAE4ARM Gui in it. That will start the gui then and you can create your Configs for games. You can also try to create configs automatically. See https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Amiga I never tried that myself tho. I just started my Amiga setup yesterday so I'm new to this as well. :)

I can see the emulator but when I run it , it craps out ... UAE4ALL is able to launch into its interface , UAE4ARM cant ... here is a video showing the problem ...

Perhaps someone will make a youtube video for all of this soon ;-)

@dunnieboy Thats weird. Its somehow skipping the GUI and starting the emulator right away. Sorry i cant help you with this, it worked for me with no problems. ;/
Nice upside down video btw. ;)

Did you update all packages in the last day or two? (You say v4.1 which is older than current version). Looks like I need to fix up the standalone launching though, however you should be able to launch adfs directly. Runcommand log in /dev/shm/runcommand.log will have more info.

Or just press f12 to enter GUI.

I ended up following the whdload instructions and getting the hard disk emulation working ... works great.
Amiga WHDload booter for RetroPie
Now if only I could figure out how to get my PS4 controller to remember its settings so I do not need to run through the config every time I start ... I should be golden.

@BuZz This is going back about a month now: I updated all installed packages at that time. I haven't had the time to look at it since. It also 'broke' my Powerblock, in as much as it would start the RPi up but wouldn't shut it down-time actually gaming is quite rare, so I just restored it to its previous state so I could carry on using it as intended.
I haven't really gotten to the bottom of it: I'm more disappointed by the fact 4Arm won't play a few of the games 4All will, but it has let me focus on playing a couple of SNES titles which I think was overdue-too much time was spent trying to sort too much out rather than enjoying what I had. I do want to get to the bottom of it, but reluctant to go down the Amibian route as I like the fact everything is running through ES.
What is the reason why that after the update the games and their directories displayed on screen like that?
@dunnieboy, despite this being 2017, I don't actually use Facebook (shock horror!): the WHD loader is a route I'd consider, and now it's proven the linked method in your post above works, is there a link to a non-Facebook page with the same content?

There is a website that has at least the same info you need to set it up (i used it to get started), but the problem is that it also contains download links to sets of games. So does the facebook site, so i'm pretty sure that it's against the rules to link it.
You can try this https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/8188/amiga-per-game-list-and-launch-in-emulationstation-whd-version/4

@Danorak1981 I actually made my own google doc of the steps necessary without game links.
