      @Deathweaver .svm files should go in the main scummvm folder, not within the games' individual sub-folders:

      pi@retropie:~/RetroPie/roms/scummvm $ la atlantis.svm 'Beneath a Steel Sky (CD VGA)' 'Day Of The Tentacle (CD Dos)' 'Flight of the Amazon Queen (CD DOS)' 'Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (CD DOS)' 'Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards (Amiga)' lsl1-amiga.svm 'Maniac Mansion (Floppy DOS v2 Enhanced)' maniac-v2.svm monkey2.svm 'Monkey Island 2 - LeChuck'\''s Revenge (Ultimate Talkie Edition - DOS)' monkey.svm queen-fallback.svm 'Sam and Max Hit the Road (CD DOS)' samnmax.svm sky.svm 'Space Quest 2 - Vohaul'\''s Revenge (Amiga)' sq2-amiga.svm '+Start ScummVM.sh' tentacle.svm 'The Secret Of Monkey Island (Ultimate Talkie Edition - DOS)' pi@retropie:~/RetroPie/roms/scummvm $

      Gridmonger is a free and open-source dungeon mapping tool to replace pencil-and-paper mapping when playing old-school computer role-playing games (cRPGs). It aims to do one thing and do it well:

      Cool, nice work! I'll be sure to give this a go next time I play something mappable.

      @Soryn79 said in Quick and easy guide for adding music to Emulatonstation on RetroPie. Noob friendly!:

      I recommend changing:

      while pgrep omxplayer >/dev/null; do sleep 1; done (sleep 10; mpg123 -Z /home/pi/bgm/*.mp3 >/dev/null 2>&1) & emulationstation #auto

      to this: (the --no-splash is optional)

      emulationstation --no-splash & while pgrep omxplayer >/dev/null; do sleep 1; done (mpg123 -Z /home/pi/bgm/*.mp3 >/dev/null 2>&1) #auto

      Changing it so that it starts after ES loads just makes more sense to me. This makes sure that the music will always start 1 second after the video ends regardless of video length.

      Hi there, I tried your version and whilst it works beatifully on startup, it breaks emulationstation when pressing F4, it just hangs on a blank screen.

      I thought I'd let you know.

      Any ideas?

      Best!

      @retropieuser555 I usually test sonic adventure 2 since the slowdowns are seen right at the first level. CPU 2000/GPU 750. There are a lot of framedrops on that downhill. With vulkan those are almost eliminated.

      Without vulkan, the standalone version of flycast is faster than the included retroarch version. Cmitu has a wip script if you want to try it. Loading games from ES loads to flycast's menu instead. https://github.com/cmitu/RetroPie-Setup/tree/flycast-standalone

      I'm not sure what's up with redream. Overall, it's way faster than any version of flycast but the huge frame drops to the point where it can make the game freeze for a split second makes me go back to flycast.

      No, RetroPie cannot be installed on the SteamDeck, it's not using a compatible Linux distro.

      If you have a SteamDeck you may want to take a look at EmuDeck for something similar to RetroPie.

      @Retro-Arcade-Fan said in This was ahead of its time for a 1991 game:

      does seem to run on rails

      In fact the genre is called "Railshooter" ;)
      It was quite popular in the early 90s, just have a look at the MEGACD-Games.
      I had Starblade on my 3DO in 1994, quite impressive for its time indeed!

      More emulators preinstalled with the RetroPie image.

      @windg Some of the emulators are large and this would increase the size of the image. Defaults are sometimes changed, but I don't want to make an image with many more pre-installed emulators.

      However you can always take the 4.8 image, install more emulators, and then make an image from it to use as a base.

      @ranaday789 With the pi I want to squeeze every bit of performance I can and 64bit can be slightly faster than 32bit if the emulator is properly made for it.

      In my tests, I'm not sure if it's 64bit or if it's bullseye (I didn't try 32), but I got a significant boost with lr-snes9x on my pi3b+. This is with the few alterations I did to the retropie-setup script so it's not properly optimized.

      Here are some benchmarks though they're from benchmarks apps and not emulators:

      Hi!
      Is it possible to build the ZEsarUX module for libretro, which is used in the popular Miyoo Mini console?
      You can get the toolchain here - https://github.com/OnionUI/dev-miyoomini-toolchain
      Big thanx for you emulator!
