@Tim-s-up said in Cascade of issues with my new arcade built:

Thanks Mitu. Noted for the 3rd party images, but I my questions are more Retropie in general I think.

I understand; start with the base RetroPie installation and if you still get those errors, come back and post in this topic.

@quicksilver
Thank u i will give a try :)

so im still getting this on my runcommand.log and the game just go back to emulationsatin

Did you wait a while to let the disk check finish?

@andrewsi starting it from gdb inside a ssh session could work to have text mode, unless you tried that. But could be it wont break on correct location either then. Not used gdb that much for such problems

@psytron said in Raspbian Buster - retropi install on os - retropi crashes when turn controller off.:

I should have pulled the latest before running the script

Support for Buster (and the Pi4) has been slowly been tested on the development branch, which recently was merged to the main repository. There still might be some quirks, but you should be able to install from binaries (without re-compiling).

The audio crackling is caused by the audio resample method in the mupen64plus.cfg. This issue was fixed a while ago but looks like it is broken in latest Dev builds of retropie. There is a pull request that should fix this issue it just hasn't been merged yet.

Awesome! I set up open box to start with 1280x720, verified it via the log, and it worked perfectly with the threading set false. Looks way better than it did set true, has better response/less lag, and of course the screensaver doesn't kill it after 10 minutes.

Thanks so much for your help with my problem.

@shavecat as far as i know. why not try? :)

@Spectreman - As @arcadez2003 pointed out it does work well on mame2003 and mame2003-plus using ROM moonwlkb the other [parent/clones] hang.

@mitu

I can confirm: downgrading SDL to v2.0.8 solved my problem!
Thanks for the help, as always. :-)

@mitu So when I got home I took the microSD card that was in the raspberry pi zero W that I think is faulty. And just moved it over to the new raspberry pie zero w that arrived in the mail today. And it seems to be working a lot better. It booted up just fine to EmulationStation and I’m not getting any of the button issues that I was having when I had it in the Retroflag GPi case. It occasionally gave input configuration crashes too.

I tested only one Atari game on it and it seems to be working (where as before I could never keep it from crashing long enough to run a game). However I’ve only started transferring games over and havent tested any others. Either way it’s not freezing like it was just a few seconds after loading up emulation station. And it has yet to crash. Which means so far that’s a really good sign.

When I’m done transferring the files over, doing a scrape for the game images, and can actually spend some time playing games on it. I’ll be glad and certain of what the issue was. But based on all the trouble I was having and I’m using the exact same microSD card with everything that was installed before. So far I’m convined that I had a faulty raspberry pi zero W.

@mitu Fixing the case sensitivity worked! Thanks for your help.

@fluffypillow Thanks man, and sorry again for the "double-posting", I'll answer you here

I did the workaround you told (put 'providers.gog.enabled: false" in settings.txt) and worked! Nice :D

I don't have much GOG games, but here's the list if you want

Aquaria / Bastion / Botanicula / Death to Spies: Moment of Truth
Mark of the Ninja / Gorogoa / Fran Bow / Grim Fandango Remastered
Hyper Light Drifter / Pan-Pan / Shovel Knight / Odallus: The Dark Call
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines

@mitu Excellent! I'll give it a shot.

@Bendix94 Check out this thread: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/18985/diablo-ii-and-other-games-on-retropie. There is 2 videos, one of them is still working. It's not Crash's video though (I think), I believe it is from Salvador Liébana.

@Efriim

thats okay thanks for trying :) and the DS3 works fine as is i just moved onto Wii U Pro controller cause its much more comfortable and lasts longer but what can i do. DS3 for now.

@Superman550 emulationstation-dev replaces emulationstation when installed, you don't have to do anything to make it start. Do report if you still encounter this error.

@SeraphisCain The build/install script for the package is not updated right now, you'll need to have a bit more patience - it's not something on your end.
