      Sorry for my english ;) Will just say that after mods enable, need the option V-Sync. Without v-sync, the game suffer with tearing (hope you understand my bad english)

        if the game uses sdl1, you can enable the dispmanx backend for it - requires some additions to the module to enable by default and make it show up in dispmanx config, but will stop tearing.

          I'm going to take a run at updating the entire repository to the new standards being used by RetroPie today.

            rp_module_menus="4+" -> rp_module_section="exp"

            anything that installs directly from a binary archive or via apt-get should be inside install_bin_moduleid rather than install_moduleid

              @BuZz That's all that's changed for modules?

                oh and _INFMSGS isn't used (it's still supported by should not be used anymore) - instead we have an optional rp_module_help="" for help text which is displayed in the gui. Also any modules with a "gui" to configure, should use gui_moduleid function - probably doesn't affect any of yours.

                and nobin flag is no longer needed.

                Can't think of anything else right now that would affect your stuff - I tried to not break existing modules too much (the section change is the main non optional change).

                    Everything's updated. Haven't tested though. I'll take a look at SORR.

                      @zerojay Would it be possible to map buttons to exit to the gamepad? At the moment you have to use the Esc key on a keyboard.

                          @zerojay the other thing also is game data should be split out of configure_ functions and then called from the configure function like

                          [[ "$md_mode" == "install" ]] && game_data_moduleid

                          check this WIP PR

                          https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/1522

                          this will be merged shortly. This makes modules work better with the uninstall/remove functionality..

                            @zerojay the other thing is the rp_module_help goes in the header see:

                              Gamemaker module only shows "Package Help" in the setup script while trying to install it.

                              Don't sweat it.
                              When in doubt, take a BYTE out of life.

                                Is SORR on there the latest version? How do I exit from it without unplugging my Pi?

                                    Hi,

                                    First off, thanks for the great work.
                                    I am trying to run Freesynd for Syndicate, but running from RetroPie I just get a black screen and a cursor for a few seconds then it goes back to the Retropie menu.
                                    I know my Syndicate files work ok as it runs fine on Freesynd Windows.
                                    I have not changed monitor res or video driver, just running straight out the box so to speak.
                                    Any help is welcome. Thanks (RetroPie 3.8 on RPi 3 and RetroPie 3.8.1 on RPi 0)

                                      I haven't tried it recently. All I can really say about it is that it was flaky and would crash out after a level or two (save often!)

                                      When I have time, I'll try to take a look at it.
