Which EmulationStation version are you using ? Perhaps you need to quote the path to the emulator, since it has spaces in it, or try to rename the "Project64 3.0" folder to not have spaces in it. How is the es_systems.cfg file set-up for the N64 system ?

@dcaputi i don't know the joystick but having a quick Google it sounds like there might be a driver needed

Does currently work on Ubuntu or other Linux based desktop environments?

You could probably use jstest or evdev to check how it's recognised as well

When I downgraded VLC to have faster video previews, it created the problem. Just re-use the script proposed by RapidEdwin08

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RapidEdwin08/RetroPie-Setup/master/vlc-downgrade.sh -P ~/ chmod 755 ~/vlc-downgrade.sh ~/vlc-downgrade.sh

And select option 2 to re-install the original VLC version. Now you can re-install EmulationStation

@phillip_benoit create a branch for each change, before adding your changes, then create a PR from that branch.

Afaik and according to this

It doesn't affect all pi models. The pi 3 which I have is affected unfortunately 🙂

@Folly Thanks, I got everything running now!

Please take note that you can use jpg format in addition to png.

At least I've been using a mixture of png and jpg images :)

Curiously, I have something similar on 18.04.1, which is also a recent thing. I just stumbled across this post but already made my own thread with my own findings this evening:

Let me know if I can help grab any further information here to get this resolved.

Thanks!

@navi87 said in EmulationStation custom options menues:

Is there any way to manually edit and replicate the menu on ES when you press start as shown in the video? Where would such files be on the sd card??

As i said - 2 years ago - that's not the RetroPie's version of EmulationStation, so it's doesn't apply to the RetroPie's EmulationStation, where the same answer I gave then is still valid.
