@mitu I might have by accident because at on point I was having a hard time finding where to pair with bluetooth for a controller

@newmanph said in When launching a game, emulationstation switches to desktop, then back to the menu:

Is there any way to make emulationstation work within the desktop? I know it's recommended to just use the raspberry pi to launch emulationstation, but if it's possible I'd like to use the pi for other things as well.

You can still use the desktop, start if from EmulationStation - see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#where-did-the-desktop-go - and not the other way around.

@BuZz thank you...i have fix It with shader update

@mitu Sure thing, I will try that today.

I've also noticed a problem with blending while I was helping to troubleshoot recent issues with missing textures, but I wasn't certain that the blending issue was an existing problem or something new, as I rarely test N64 emulation.

Legacy blending is disabled for certain games - including Zelda - here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/emulators/mupen64plus/mupen64plus.sh#L201

If you're familiar with editing files via SSH, you can edit /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus/bin/mupen64plus.sh and try removing zelda from that blacklist to see if the problem is resolved. I'll take a look when I have some free time.

@muehltime said in I failed. I lost all save games. Can anyone help?:

Are there any legal issues with sharing SaveState files?

I'm not a lawyer nor a forum admin but I believe that, as this kind of file doesn't have any copyrighted material, then it's perfectly legal. And if we look carefully at the forum rules, sharing SaveState files doesn't seem to violate any of those rules.

In my opinion it's OK to share. But the forum admins have the final word about that. ;-)

@supersirlink lets compare notes... youre doing something similar to what i am... https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/12037/building-on-ubuntu-server-16-04

Hmm. I followed your advice and copied the video-splashscreen over to /home/pi/splashscreens and changed the line in /etc/splashscreen.list accordingly. Strangely this doesn't work, the splashscreens never appears.

I even double- and triple-checked the paths and tried different folders, but the splashscreen won't show up.

Edit:

Just got it to work. After copying it over to /opt/retropie/supplementary/splashscreen/ to the default splashscreens and selecting it it works like a charm!

Perfect! Thanks so much for your help. Not sure how I missed that. All updated :)

HI there

I am having exactly the same problems. I've trawled the internet with no luck... did you manage to fix your problem in the end? I'd love to know how if you did!

Thanks...
