@sleve_mcdichael ok i made the file amiberry.conf copyed and put the text in you gave us.

rom_path=/home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS/amiga

saved it over network to a the spashcreens fold and now going to move it to

/opt/retropie/configs/amiga/amiberry/conf/

if this works wow. Thanks does this mean i need to move or make a file called amiga in BIOS/ and that is where i need to put my kickstarts?

@mitu said in Error running 'git pull --ff-only' - returned 1 Updating Retroarch:

You can actually see the error in the logs, you've modifed 2 shader files locally and they can't be updated:

... Already on 'rpi' .... Your branch is behind 'origin/rpi' by 3 commits, and can be fast-forwarded. (use "git pull" to update your local branch) error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge: crt-yo6-KV-M1420B-fast.glslp shaders/barrel-distortion.glsl Please commit your changes or stash them before you merge. ...

Thank you for that! I never changed any of the shader files so I'm not sure how that happened and that's probably exactly why I missed it in the error log. But I appreciate you chasing that down and I'll go look for that and make the change right now!

@mitu
I ended up having to do a full re-install of Mint Mate 22 for other reasons. This is my third install in the past 2 weeks and I hope I do not need to do so again.

Let it be known that even after a fresh full-reinstall of Mint Mate 22, the same lack of joypad recognition continues. I have to access the setup through terminal via the sudo command in order to make it work. Otherwise, accessing the setup through the Retropie OS itself does not enable joypad function in Mint Mate 22. I did not have this issue with Mint Mate 20.

@mitu hi sorry yes I meant Raspberry Pi 4. I have since deleted all of the PS2 ROMs and replaced with PS1 ROMs in .chd format and I’m still getting the same error message about not being able to parse the data

@sugarfree wow, its amazing how you just solved my problem with only two lines of code. Thank you so much, words fail to express the relief you just brought me lol

nevermind it works now !

@mitu thats okay. Im sure i can find another driver and solve the problem with that one.

@thewillrussell said in Number of Problems On Retropie: Splashscreen directory can't find mine:

I tried posting a follow up post on the topic but that asshole moderator Mitu took it down

Oh, no. Come back after you've learned to behave in a forum.

Please post the contents of the .cue file - you can open it as text, since it's just text. Did you also checked the BIOS files that @abj mentioned - are they present in the BIOS folder ?

@mitu you're exactly correct. I ran dos2unix on the file and it works as expected. Thought about /r not being a thing in unix files 30 seconds after I posted.
No clue how it happened, both were edited in notepad++.

The issue will be fixed upstream, one way or the other.
As a temporary workaround (until this fix is merged), you can try installing libhidapi-dev manually and then re-run the installation from the RetroPie-Setup script.

@mitu Thank you very much! Updating the kernel and redownload the package did it! 🤗

@mitu said in No games launching currently (please help); everything worked the last time system was shutdown:

Well, are the games there or not ? You can use the File Manager entry in RetroPie to browse any folder on the system, including the ROMs folders.

Yes, everything looks good on the ssd still.

@mitu said in No games launching currently (please help); everything worked the last time system was shutdown:

Wasn't enabled before or did you use another method to add the external disc ?

It was, and all was working fine, but I did it again (hit the enable script) because I didn't know what else to do.--> I looked at the external drive again after this, all still looked good.

Currently, I have disabled usbromservice. Moved a single game over to the pi sd card, tested, and it also did not launch when trying to be ran directly from the sd card.

---> UPDATE: It has something to do with those blessed shaders we last talked about in another thread.

I had a setting set on retroarch config of use "this shader" for all cores.

I disabled load shaders and all is working again.

We were talking about this in another thread-- How do I know which shaders are supported?

The other thread:

https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/34887/can-t-get-shader-shader-presets-that-i-have-uploaded-to-pi-to-show-in-ui/8

Honestly like you said in the other thread, I don't need that many because half of them won't even work due to performance issues.

Thank you @mitu for everything you have helped me with. I'm sorry for crying wolf on a mistake I created.

@mitu said in Error when I try to run Emulationstation on ubuntu 18.04 desktop:

DBUS_FATAL_WARNINGS=0 emulationstation

that worked thanks

I'm experiencing the same issue. The ".svg" file from your Custom theme in the ES Theme menu isn't being recognized. You can uninstall the custom theme, but you must choose a new one before proceeding with the uninstall. You shouldn't see this message when you boot into a Rom.

@mitu Thanks. After I built RetroArch with your commit, works well now.

@140714071407 it looks like you've got the old ZeroJay version of RetroPie-Extra. Currently it is maintained by ExarKunIv at https://github.com/Exarkuniv/RetroPie-Extra
