      @theawfulone in-game, open the RGUI (RetroArch Graphical User Interface) with default Select + X ("north" face button). From there, navigate to quick menu (this should be where you start already) then to controls >> port 1 controls. Set up the buttons how you like, and then go back to the controls menu (one level up from port {n} controls) and "save core remap file."

      Do this once each for GB and GBA. Saving it as a "core" remap file will apply the changes to every title on that system. You can also set overrides that will apply on a per-game basis (and override the core setting) by saving a "game remap file" instead. "Content directory remap" isn't very useful, in most situations, since the configs are already separated out by system anyway so they will already only apply to a single content directory, even using the core remap.

      This means that even if you use the same lr-gambatte emulator core for GB and GBC games, you still have to remap them separately (unless, you put them all in the GB folder, which you can do with a simple edit to your custom es_systems.cfg file.

      @dankcushions Yeah, that's what I thought, but I couldn't find the options anywhere. I forgot how well-hidden the "Show Advanced Options" menu is...

      @mitu I see thx, so do you think this is very specific or maybe more common and with more roms? or do you even know of a compatibility list of lr-gpsp?

      Problem solved, I don't know if this is a general "issue" but the filename had double spaces in the file name . Deleting one and the rom worked.

      @dankcushions said in GBA Not Launching (bios added):

      update retropie-setup script, then install lr-gpsp from source.

      Fantastic, took a while, but that's fixed it!

      Apologies for not spotting the earlier post, I was scouring through the tag PI ZERO W rather than RASPBERRY PI 0W

      No, it's not specific to the RetroArch version, overrides don't save the hotkey configuration, it's saved only when saving the whole configuration.
      You can try to add an extra configuration line in /opt/retropie/configs/gba/retroarch.cfg with

      input_toggle_fast_forward_btn=X

      where X is the button input code for L2 - you can find it from your gamepad autoconfiguration file in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/<gamepad.cfg>.

      @mitu sorry to necrobump, but as far as I know, pokemmo is written in java so it might be possible. Got it working on the lxde desktop, not sure about how to run it without the xserver though. also it is available in the repos

      @TedMaul About Wario Land, I played 1 and 2 and the second game is brilliant and by far better. Its a really good top notch Nintendo quality game, which should say a lot (Quality of Seal 👌🏻). Can't say much about the other parts, as I didn't play them. From my brief experience the third one seems to be good too.

      Hey guys

      I followed your advice and I'm pleased to report that GBA games are now working under the other emulator and they are working really well. No more stutter! Thank you! Finally my GPI can run more than GB games! :D

      I've had this problem recently with Legend of Mana for psx. It was the controller type that was set to analog, but the game refused to work until I changed it back to standard and restarted it. Some cores/games are a bit finicky with analog controllers and how they're configured, in my experience. Try messing with that option to see if solves you problem.

      Okay, so now I'm getting blanking AND random "No Signal" to the TV. The no signal issue recovers when I exit the game. Could it be my seven dollar HDMI cable?

      Solid One

      Try gpsp's non-retroarch version. With this version, you'll probably have less lag on GBA games, since it consumes less resources than the default retroarch version.

      I've tested this version on a Raspberry Pi 1 B+, and I remember playing some GBA games without lag. It was on 2015, and back then, if my memory serves, there was no lr-gpsp yet.

      I don't know if it'll work on your Pi Zero, but assuming Pi Zero and Pi 1 has approximately the same hardware, there's the chance that it can work.

      Thanks for the reply! I installed Retroarch on my phone to see a bit of what you mean. Fewer shaders are available and the same shaders I use on my PC look different thanks to the phone's much higher PPI, and/or maybe some other factors. I suppose this would mainly apply to people playing on Windows or Linux on a 1080 - 4k screen. If you feel this question is of no use here, feel free to remove it.
