@caver01 Yep! I did it!
Many thanks!!!

@jason said in Hotkey Questions:

Looking at the default hotkey list, I see input_state_slot_increase_axis & input_state_slot_decrease_axis

This is to switch the save slot number upwards/downards. You can have more than one saves state slot, using these controls will switch between them (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.).

Maybe this will help:

@madmodder123 I changed the vector images of buttons to symbolic (playstation). I converted them from a raster to a vector in an inscape.
In this thread, @jacobfk20 helped me with the compilation, and everything worked.

I've seen quite a few requests to allow the user to choose the first selected system. Unsure about how to implement that (i.e. need to think about that), but noted.

[As you've come to see the past few weeks, though, "noted" just means I've made a note of it and added it to a list of things to be done. Unfortunately I haven't been having any time to contribute to ES in terms of testing or developing recently, but hopefully when I have some more time I can pick up some of these things.]

@andershp Thanks! Yeah I will explain that part in the next part of my story, but after I got the wood, I honestly worked on this thing from the moment I woke up, until the moment I went to sleep. This was during summer and I was on vacation from work and the University. I probably didn't eat much. I didn't realize you had one too until I read your signature. I'm about to check it out.

@jonathanball Wonderfull :)

@grant2258 Interesting approach. If I'll make another CP in the future (or even a Cab..) I surely will retry with Plexi.

I'm not 100% sure about the hdmi_timings= because it would have to be what ever your CRT is actually using. I've been kind of looking around to see if I can find more information about that.

@simbz23 Check this; it's not original art but really high quality remake of the cabinet artwork. Could be good stuff to base an overlay upon.

@SanyaIV said in Run custom action on custom hotkey?:

What I want to do: ADD a hotkey that does a CUSTOM action.
The hotkey: DualShock 4 contoller [Share] + [PS Button]
The action: Run a script (The script will toggle vcgencmd display_power 0 and vcgencmd display_power 1)

Hi Sanya,

Maybe you could achieve what you want by using Triggerhappy with configurations like here?:

@vretro

I had the same problem and found a solution: the Remote Pi app!

It works like a virtual keyboard and mouse in one. Now you can type all keys and F1 etc. without mapping. And the mouse function is good too for Amiga use.

And this app I use to check memory and shutt down the Raspberry Pi:

Command Pi

Hope this helps!

@edmaul69 I was actually not even born when the SNES came out, so I never had one before. I was also very surprised to see there were 2 versions. I do love the old retro gaming machines a lot more then the new ones!

@thedudester80 said in Splash screen sound using an I2S amp with pi zero:

Can't wait to see it finished.

Haha, trust me. I can't either. It's quite a lot of work and "figuring out"

People can be intrigued by the thought of not having to do much. They like the idea of a pre made kit that they can play there childhood games on and have minimal setup

@MacEns Try going into /boot/config.txt and remove the hash symbol at the start of config_hdmi_boost=4. This will increase the HDMI signal. Or swap out the cable. If it is displaying on and off and your TV is giving you that warning I would say that is your issue. This value can also be changed up or down.

@Ikyrus You could use something like jslisten to monitor for inputs, and invoke a script to switch config files.
