Please Test: Adding support for "All", "Favorites" and "Last Played" systems

@red2blue Make backup of your current binary BEFORE compiling!

red2blue

@cyperghost my current setup is using Kids Mode, i dont really care about kids mode.. question is... is the binaries updated with this current build ^

pjft

@red2blue you need to exit EmulationStation before updating.

cyperghost

@red2blue Yes it will be overwritten!
and make suggestion @pjft
If you can't exit then connect via SSH and type killall emulationstation

red2blue

@cyperghost @pjft okay killed ES, and made backup just in case.

Should i update binary or source?

does this feature come with the latest build on emulation station?? so i can still use the new favorite system?

Update from source. I think that in a couple of days you can get it updating from binary. But since the PR was merged a few hours ago, I'm not sure if the binary version was updated.

@meleu told you already

red2blue

@cyperghost @pjft it froze again at the same line 86% with emulationstation killed... wtf..

cyperghost

@red2blue What's the output if you type ps -a
I'm on 90% of compiling I can upload binary to my github archive! And you can copy it back! Even if this is not the recommended way.

red2blue

@cyperghost how do i do that

And yeah i'd appreciate that.. this is starting to get annoying

red2blue

the outcome is

PID TTY TIME CMD
917 tty1 00:00:00 bash
2184 pts/0 00:00:00 ps

cyperghost

@red2blue It should work....
Well please hold on for a few minutes. I can provide binary
https://github.com/crcerror/emulationstation-binary-archive

Man yesterday I sweared I'll never compile anything. 12hours later I break my rules

red2blue

@cyperghost so how would i go about using that link you sent me in SSH?

Also will this override my retroarch settings?

red2blue

@cyperghost ??????/ idk how to import what you just gave me dude

red2blue

@pjft so i deleted kids mode manually and now its under reg emulation station, under the current new version (idk how since it didnt even fully update) but it doesnt have the favorite "X" button under game list?

Edit: It also doesnt have Favorite's only when i press select

cyperghost

@red2blue Sorry I can't compile
I'm stuck at 100% binary will not be linked!

red2blue

@cyperghost regardless i dont even know what to do with the link you gave me. I tried everything for the last hour...

All i want to do is press x to favorite a game.. idk how recalbox had this months before retropie and its still not functional lmao

cyperghost

@red2blue You can use this
https://github.com/crcerror/emulationstation-binary-archive/blob/master/PI2and3/emulationstation2.3.1RP %40pjft %40hex favorites and powersavings v2

This is a merged branch of Powersavings and Favorite
But it's not official!
You can download and must rename it later to emulationstationand copy it to opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation

red2blue

@cyperghost again, i dont know what to do with the link you sent me.

cyperghost

@red2blue That are precompiled binaries.
You SSH as root and exchange binary old with binary you have downloaded

Rename it to emulationstation and copy it to opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation

Make it executable and you can use this. Meanwhile I try to compile the official branch!

red2blue

@cyperghost bro youre speaking another language to me. can you please do step by step with commands
