FIXED: Change 'common.cfg' aspect ratio index to 23.

What a superb work man! I always dreamt of doing something like that

@mitu said in Where does Arcade folder store configs on which emulator for each game?:

/opt/retropie/configs/all/emulators.cfg

Thank you, that is exactly what I have spent the last few days looking for. I've been looking in the rom folder and the config/arcade folder.

@TheRealSmilebit Ok, and just one more question, what holesaw size did you use for the trackball? (2 1/8 inch?)

Thanks!

Here is a thread about an joystick encoder like the one of your kit. You may try the solution posted there by @absolut1978 .

"This grid screen" … is there a picture meant to be? Because I don't see one.

However, please provide the information that is requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@SpudsMcToole said in What runs Viper Phase 1 (arcade)?:

@gomisensei I've got three versions of AdvMAME installed - normal, 0.94 and 1.4 - and none of them will run it, just crash back to the ES menu. Which one are you running it on?

just the lastest base advmame, uses a different romset than the ones mame2010 uses, tho...

@Kopfsturm Dude, this thing is awesome! What a beast!

Beautiful graphics! Thanks!

oh cool i'll take a look into it thanks!

My wife got some of those in at the retail store she works at. All I can say is that I very much do not recommend them. They are smaller than what 3/4 sounds like when you see them in person, it's quite a cramped experience. They are also extremely light and a bit flimsy.

@Mayki
how did you managed to to switching between ES and fruitbox and can you post pic of your control layout?

Thanks

It won't start up under Wine w/Exagear either.

@larsks I don't use mame4all, so I can't say for sure about the axis, hopefully someone else will be able to.

What might help is binding the arrow keys to input control in mame4all. Technically, if your up/down/left/right is bound to dpad in emulation station, it should also translate dpad input to arrow keys. This is how you are able to navigate the menus like retropie-setup with a controller. You might need to run joy2key by hand before launching mame4all. Not sure.

@xwons said in Trying to organize my arcade rom library. There's so much information that I'm lost.:

Apart from that, if I want to trim my collection (eliminating clones and duplicates) I found a tool called RomLister (https://www.waste.org/~winkles/ROMLister/) but it starts by asking me a xml file and I have no idea where to get it.

Validating, Rebuilding, and Filtering ROM Collections in the Retropie Docs explains a lot of this and more.

I think your problem is that all controllers (both the arcade and the N64) have the same name and Vendor/Model IDs, making them appear as the same controller to the system.
When you configure your N64 controller(s), the arcade buttons configuration is overwritten - since they appear the same - and thus your configuration is broken.
Here's a topic discussing this - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/6264/you-have-to-use-identical-controllers-for-multiplayer-games-please-prove-me-wrong - but it's not the only topic with this problem.

Impressive, the design looks great.
