@quicksilver I completely agree. Though if it could be ported over, I'm sure improvements could then be made to the point of 'somewhat decent' playability maybe on an upcoming pi 5 or even an overclocked pi 4 . Here is a video of dolphin running well at 2x native res on a: intel pentium b950 @ 2.10 Ghz (2c 2t) nvidia geforce gt 520m 1GB 4GB ddr3 ram Not expecting results anywhere near this, though gives a good idea of the state of gamecube / wii emulation and the relatively low computing power needed.

It's fixed! I've removed all .ini files in /opt/retropie/configs/gc/Config After that I opened Dolphin and I can use the keyboard now to navigate the menu.

@grant2258 Thank you for the response! I certainly can use the standalone version, which I will probably end up doing. I want to eventually (possibly) replace my Raspberry Pi with a small laptop that runs RetroPie, since I have access to better hardware. So I was hoping to setup a system I can connect to the TV and use the interface entirely with the controller. I'll just have to make due for now, and choose a solution that suits me best.

@mitu Alright, thank you for your help!

@mitu Installing the dependancies listed on the link you provided seems to gave done the trick. Thanks so much! For those who are curious, I ran the following command as suggested by the Dolphin installation page (cut and pasted here for your convenience). sudo apt install cmake pkg-config git libao-dev libasound2-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libbluetooth-dev libenet-dev libgtk2.0-dev liblzo2-dev libminiupnpc-dev libopenal-dev libpulse-dev libreadline-dev libsfml-dev libsoil-dev libsoundtouch-dev libswscale-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libwxbase3.0-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev libxext-dev libxrandr-dev portaudio19-dev zlib1g-dev libudev-dev libevdev-dev "libpolarssl-dev|libmbedtls-dev" libcurl4-openssl-dev libegl1-mesa-dev libpng-dev qtbase5-private-dev

@cigdangle said in Dolphin stopped working since updating packages: RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): 4.2.20

@tonythetiger don't use them. /dev/shm/runcommand.log may have more info. more information about your set-up will help https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first Did you check the documentation on this site ?

@jaydeesox Please give us more information https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first What OS are you using? There is nothing underneath "Here is my error message"

@jaydeesox Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first New topic with info/ error output please.

I figured out the issues, but apparently it is JUST a launcher, when I exit via alt+f4 the dolphin gui shows up and asks for verification, then retro arch appears, so it's actually worse as far as going keyboard free. Oh well, was worth a shot :)

@backstander awesome! Thanks again

@mediamogul Same. It did seem rather appropriate to the conversation at hand too.

@kAnGeL88 Those emulators won't run on the current Pi hardware, so theyre not available on those builds.

I got it compiled on my Ubuntu desktop with a small header modification, but performance was actually worse than the official Dolphin PPA

@WadeBrody It means a PC as opposed to a single board computer like a Pi. x86 referring to the 8086 processors introduced by Intel years ago.

i have a project in mind that i have always wanted to do. My favorite child hood game was the GameCube's Luigi's mansion. In this game, you get what is call the GAME BOY HORROR. i want to remake this game boy horror and as one of the features, be able to play Luigi's mansion on it. i have the ROM for it and dolphin, but thats about it.
