Hi,

ok. But then I must install all drivers by hand, lot of work.
I have updated retropie, so it should be the newest version.

@clyde Thanks for the suggestion I will give the Mayflash a try.

I found out where the files are and how to import and export saves finally. Thanks again @mitu.

How to prevent the controller configuration from popping up when the new handle is inserted

RetroPie doesn't do that. If this is the same system as the one you've posted in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/28624/, then you're not using RetroPie.

@thorndike said in Joystick configuration on Atari Fight Stick:

First, when configuring the joystick through emulationstation which set of configuration options should I use to configure the joystick? The first set of directional inputs, or those farther down in the configuration menu?

You can use both to navigate EmulationStation, but most games expect something similar to a D-Pad (the first), so I'd use that.

I am currently using the first set of directional inputs but the joystick is very sensitive. If using the other directional inputs don't make a difference is there a way to adjust the sensitivity of the joystick?

You can try to increase the deadzone for the joystick using evdev-joystick , a command line utility.

@mitu Thanks!

@john1967 please fill out https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

booting to emulationstation is default behaviour for the official image, however here is how to configure it for a manual installation: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#how-do-i-boot-to-the-desktop-or-kodi

@solidhyunkel Hello and welcome to this forum.

See Running ROMs from a USB drive for detailed instructions about that.

@mitu Thanks!

@dankcushions I cannot do that now but may you please look at my other post

@Zering Sorry I did not know

Thanks. I changed the power to a new official one and this has solved the lightening bolt issue. However the controller cutting out remains.

No matter what I do, as soon as I connect a second controller the light goes out on the first one and controller one cuts out. Its driving me nuts. Can anyone help please.

@Muffy The overheating problem is solved by updating the raspberry pi kernel, which you have to update manually in the terminal.

@stevenhurwitt said in lr-pcsx-rearmed missing in optional packages.. what now?:

hey so i saw that this is installed by default now, but i can't get any PS2 roms to load on raspberry pi 4. was trying to follow this guide, but none of the packages show up as optional packages.

Is it PS2 or PS1 ? The lr-pcsx-rearmed emulates only PS1 games. Check if you have the correct BIOS files - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/

@dankcushions thanks mate - i did see the comment on the verbose logs.
In learning about how to trigger them and retrieve them, I went into the RetroPie configuration editor and then notice there was an Aspec ratio setting. I set this to 4:3 and everything is perfect now.

Glad Im solved it and thanks for your time.

Excellent forum by the way

So you were right I only need the rotation part and then needed to set the aspec ratio.
video_allow_rotate = true
video_rotation = 3

This was the magic line:-
aspect_ratio_index = "0"

@mitu Im actually running the pi as a head unit for my car, and the head unit program exits to desktop, so I want to launch retropie from there.

@mitu No, I am outputting at 1080p. Which was a pain. Whenever I try to change the resolution in raspi-config it just backs me out, so I had to set the resolution via terminal /boot/config.txt.

Disregard. I figured out the issue. I originally downloaded a Romset and it had a Gamelist included. So I guess if a gamelist is already in the rom folder, it ignores the one in config.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

chmod + x rpi-eeprom-mgr

It probably needs to be

chmod +x rpi-eeprom-mgr
