@meleu any change there's an image out there that already has the pi 0w patched in already ? I want to install it on a separate SD card to compare the two versions. Thank you

@newer https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#how-do-i-boot-to-the-desktop-or-kodi

I'm experiencing exactly the same problem.
I hope someone has a solution.

Okay everyone, thank you for your help, i did it !!
Now, i know that a Cheap USB HUB is not a good idea ! x)
I bought a new one, not really more expensive, and Tada !

Thanks for everything !

@Everett1954 I was able to get about half the Creativision games working with Advmess. However, I wasn't happy with the results because I couldn't get Planet Defender to work. I wound up manually installing the creatiVision Emulator (Linux Source dated 24 April 2016) (source file: creatiVision-1604240src.7z) from this website: https://sourceforge.net/projects/creativisionemulator/ This emulator uses SDL.

Having unzipped the files into a new build folder, I compiled it with cmake /home/pi/build(using GNU 4.9.2 on my Pi) and make. Once the executable creatiVision file was created, I then set up a layout etc.

All of the games seem to work and appear to work at full speed.

Your mileage might vary. I did this more than a year ago on Jessie, and I'm using Attract Mode, rather than emulationstation, and I also use xboxdrv for controls.

Also my emulators.cfg looks like this:

default = "creatiVision" creatiVision = "/opt/retropie/emulators/creativision/creatiVision -r %ROM% -b /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/crvision2/bioscv.rom -f"

Note the reference to the bios file bioscv.rom.

You may need to adapt the emulators.cfg for emulationstation, but I can't help you there.

@Bak-Sakk-N'Krak I've used the torrent that @mediamogul mentioned a few times without any issue.

Additionally, is your HDMI routing directly to your TV or is it passing through a soundbar or AV receiver?

Working great now Zig! Thank you so much.
Is there any chance the kiosk mode version could get merged into the main release version? I think these features are absolutely core features and would love them to be the new base minimum.

@administrators @obsidianspider hmmm Interesting.

I probably misunderstood @RobotLimeLtd reply. On my version 4.1, yes I did have the SegaCD bios file in the bios folder. That I know does work. When I went to go update to 4.2. I simply formatted my sd card so there is nothing on it. Installed RetroPie 4.2. Plugged in my USB that has all the roms, bios, configs just like if your adding a new game (not over the internet). If that makes sense. All my games such as NES, MegaDrive, Atari, PS1 (which has bios) all works fine. SegaCD does not. I never once tinkered with where the files.

I love the new fixes on it though.

@administrators " you've modified something on your system that has changed the defaults." What modifications can I have done to make it change? I only have changed the occasional ES themes and changed the splash screen.

Overall thanks for the responses!! Means a lot. I may just install the new update at a later time.

Something got corrupted during the install. I did a fresh install and it works fine.

@milok Useful for me, my gf deleted the retroarch.cfg and the one it autogenerates apparently is completely different from the default one? A lot of stuff is changed, including the entire psx interface for retroarch, and bios location.

@qix77

I'm on 4.2.1 and I can confirm that ZDoom is ready and waiting under the 'Optional Packages'. As far as 'Brutal Doom' goes, I have it installed and it tends to run pretty well unless you have the enemies cranked all the way up to 'Nightmare' and do something like throw a grenade into an occupied room. Then it has to work out where all the blood an body parts are going to fall and the game will stop until it does. Playing it on 'Hurt Me Plenty' seems to run very well though. You should be able to install it without issue using the Documentation for ZDoom.

Sorry for not replying earlier guys, and thanks for the replies!

@TMNTturtlguy I tried pressing TAB when in-game (lr-quicknes). Nothing happens. I can control the game fine from the keys however. I'll try to find Select+Y on the keyboard!

@BuZz I removed the device, switched 8bitdo hack ON and added it back again. Didn't help. Then I realized I need to remap the controls in ES, which worked. Thanks!

@Danorak1981 yes, updating is the best fix! But the Zero gamepads can't be updated I'm afraid.
Funny thing, I have one older Zero gamepad and one slightly newer. The hack is needed for the old one but not the new one (and the Zero can't be updated).

@mattrixk Thank you for confirming!

@Cybermen I think you are over-thinking this. RetroPie is updated incrementally. Every few days. Sometimes twice in a day. Only a few minor changes happen between each version. Even between 4.1.x and 4.2. It is the stock image that is updated to the "new version" That was previously last done back in November 16. The new image is 4.2 but even if you install that updates have been implemented since that version of the image was done. The last update for example was 2 days ago.

@zerd_sword hi!

I have this very same issue with a recent purchase.

Got a RPi Zero W v1.1 and Retropie hangs after a while. It occurs while emulating SNES and NES (the only ones I tested), copying data via samba, browsing scraped metadata, and even while sitting idle on the ES screen. It seems random but it appears to happen after the system is warmed up, although I removd the official case I got to no avail.

I only have the one so I have no means to verify other board does work indeed, so I was wondering whether you figured out how to identify the faulty hardware. Was there anything different on the new one? Different manufacturer maybe?

Here's a picture of my board printed data: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iSIXzlZtVigopNxecTbHC9xb4ylrXizs/view?usp=drivesdk

If you have any info, please advise.

Thanks!

@Rascas Excellent. Thank you.

@chubsta said in Daphne controller configuration:

input configuration script doesn't refer to the joypad anyway but i find that unlikely.

I haven't tested it myself, but I assume the new input configuration script is referring to the mapping of buttons only. Daphne is an emulator that grabs the first joystick event it can find and there is no way to configure it to do otherwise outside of an external mapping solution.

A tip to hopefully make your joystick appear as the first event is to plug into the upper left USB port. If that doesn't work, then try launching Daphne while it is the only USB device plugged in at all. If that also fails, you're left with very few options other than key-mapping your controller to fool the system into thinking it's a keyboard.
