There really are a lot of changes that make for a good install of retropie for Gpi. From boot/config.txt changes, to dtbo device tree overlay files (and renaming them to prevent an over-write), to quieting the boot text, to using a custom kernel with a boot logo, to a good splash screen video, to a good theme, to picking the right default emulators, to working around controller input issues with xboxdrv, to configuring proper es_system settings, to many other tweaks and changes. While it may never end up being an official "version" of retropie for Gpi, it really does become difficult to manage every single tweak and change that makes it better for Gpi. The guides might be the best bet for now, and maybe some day scripts can be created from the guides info that can just be run to make all the changes.

It was the bloody power source! I didn't bother hooking it up to a decent power brick because I figured the Pi zero didn't need as much juice as my Pi 3... Idiot... Thanks for your inputs guys.

@Chuck_B lol. There is a tad bit of slowdown, but nothing detrimental.

@gtoal I don't see how this applies to the topic at hand - the poster specifically said it's a non-W(ifi) model and they don't try to use wireless at all.

I saw this thread, so I set up lr-hatari, got it working, and updated the docs, mostly just from the core's github readme. It worked pretty much first try, but the docs previously only covered Hatari standalone. One thing I am not clear on is how you get the core to look at different BIOS files in order to emulate the STE or Falcon, but I haven't tried that yet.

@K9Kraken said in GPI Case XRoar emulator crashes. (Solved): -Way to exit emulator without having to reboot the system. I wonder if this is because of --disable-kbd-translate. Do you have a game to compare how slow the new version (compared to the previous one) runs ?

Wow... So far indeed solved... Followed : https://www.reddit.com/r/retroflag_gpi/comments/c1psvj/dpad_not_working_in_pcsxrearmed_and_gpsp/ .... and played crash bandicoot fullspeed !
