I recommend to use the artwork for Battle Zone as far as it is running now. There are only two games where i use those, and Battle Zone is one of them, makes this great game look even better (the other one is asteroids btw),

@Cricket628 always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the rules of a new forum. But now you know, and knowing is half the battle. You need help with anything else feel free to ask.

I've saw a method to make a Linux Virtual Machine and try to reduce the filesysystem as shown in this video: I'm going to give it a try today, couldn't get any luck with 7Zip as I'm trying to write it onto a new card.

@xreser Please post more info about your set-up, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. What theme are you using ? Can you post a fragment of your gamelist.xml file with chinese characters ?

@cyperghost The output of my raspi-gpio get 3 was "level=0 fsel=0 func=INPUT", but if I put it in line 322 the Pi always turns off as soon as emulationstation loads, even if completely disconnected from the case. However, I just realised something... the power socket on the MEGAPi case it's not just a cutout, like the HDMI port, but it has its own little board, I didn't notice until now, I just mindlessly plugged the power directly to the Pi, and that was the problem, the multi_switch.sh now works perfectly. Sorry for wasting your time :( (however, the fact that multiswitch086.sh almost worked without using the power board was in itself impressive). As a partial way to make amends I'll correct an error on the installation instructions of the script: Here you have to add a sudo before chmod, otherwise it gives you "permission denied" wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/ES-generic-shutdown/master/multi_switch.sh && chmod +x multi_switch.sh

Okay...Thanks.

@mitu thanks for the input. I will order the 710 from amazon. You have been most helpful, and I appreciate your patience.

@rodney007xx said in Help for new user please, retro pie issues on 3b+: @simpleethat > My friend said that his interface of retro PI looked nicer, perhps its because he is using a pre-made image with a different skin? You can install many so-called "themes" for Retropie. See the Docs about how to install them, and for a list of many (all?) of the themes with screenshots. Welcome to the Retropie community. Have fun. :)

@saccublenda @mitu Hold on there is a solution

it has to be a bravia

@mitu i see... t y anyways

@granderjoree just for future reference you need to remove the # before the line in the config file in order for it to be read. # means ignore this line. That's why permit root login was not working for you.

@mattrixk lol yeah man I'm having fun with it all, made one theme already but working on anither now just couldn't get rid of that text so I could add my own. I will have to upload my first theme to share soon. Thanks again.

@Brutilus Did you install any driver for your controllers ? Update your RetroPie installation (if you haven't done already) and reset your controller configuration, then try to install the ps3driver and pair your PS3 controllers. Make sure they work, then report back if they haven't. You can debug your input configuratio/detection by looking at the Emulationstation's log file - in ~/.emulationstation/es_log.txt.

@pengu1n said in Does Retropie 4.4 Run on the CM3+ Lite?: I ran into a login prompt at the console on reboot though...which was strange That happens when systemd is updated - a known Raspbian behavior - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#why-emulationstation-doesnt-start-automatically-after-an-update.

Thanks @mitu, I actually just got it working! @darthzabuza have you watched this video by Herb Fargus - It solved my issue. I put the controller into Switch mode (four lights cycling across one at a time) when initially pairing. The whole procedure worked with my M30 even though the video was made for the SF30 Pro. Hope this helps.

If I were to hazard a guess, I would say that changing over to a USB boot means that your USB ports are staying powered on when your system isn't running. You should probably just unplug the power source after shutdown.
