@Epic_Jezzman said in Can't save my games and my PS1, N64, SNES and GBA games don't work.: I just wrote RetroPie to the 16G microSD using Etcher. Then I put it in the Pi and hooked up my HDD to the Pi to get the folders (configs, bios and roms). There are 2 modes of operation w.r.t. USB connected to the Pi - transfer and running ROMs - which one did you use ? Did you create a retropie-mount folder on the disc ? As to the emulator i use for gba, it should be the standard one that comes with RetroPie. I haven't added any emulators or anything like that. I think that's lr-mgba - it's shown when you launch the game on the Runcommand launch screen. Are you sure the ROM is ok ? Get the log file (/dev/shm/runcommand.log) after you launch the game, then post its contents here, surrounded by code blocks (```).

@kfleischmann This seems like a custom build - not something standard in a RetroPie installation. Check the onstart/onend script, they might have something to do with it - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#runcommand-onstart-and-runcommand-onend-scripts.

New emulators? Sega Model 2/3? Naomi/Atom?

@Swedishkiller12 It has more power and an important software part (GLES compatibility) is solved/improved. The emulators on N64 still could need some work, but the Pi 4 will most probably be a big improvement on N64 games. We can't say more than this.

Okay, I think I found the solution. There were a couple of roms without "[!]" in the name. Because I was trying anything I could think of, I deleted those files and now everything is fine. Emulation shows every N64 rom now. Sorry for asking your help. Thank you for thinking with me for finding a solution. Best regard to all of you!

@Thorr69 @Parabolaralus Ok, thanks for the help and info!

@Efriim Thanks! Gonna give it a go.

@mitu Quick update. Changing line 447 in /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus/bin/mupen64plus.sh fixed my problem. I have changed pulse to alsa. Further more I've created a simple script, named n64audio to run at start/boot. In this script: #!/bin/sh sed -i 's/pulse/alsa/g' /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus/bin/mupen64plus.sh Made the script executable sudo chmod +x n64audio After that sudo crontab -e And added the line @reboot /home/retropie/n64audio Now after every reboot pulse will be changed to alsa in the file /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus/bin/mupen64plus.sh , if the line pulse exists. So if I update RetroPie and mupen64plus gets updated and overwrites my file (and put pulse back in to play) it will be overwritten on the next reboot. Again, thanks for all your help!

Here are some settings for Conker's Bad Fur Day: ~mupen64plus.cfg [Video-Rice] #This will fix the colored black tail and a few other things. Sometimes this setting isn't found in the cfg. #I think it loads only hi-res textures for when there are far away objects it would load lo-res. LoadHiResTextures = True #This will fix the transparency of the fence. NormalAlphaBlender = True It might be possible to add these to the .ini files for the specific game. But I'm going to move on to other things for a while and probably won't get back to this. There are some settings that improve performance and I don't know exactly which ones these were, I could post my entire plugin configuration if someone wanted it. The setting for the dancing toadstools remains to be found, maybe I imagined it. And here are two settings for Starcraft 64: ~mupen64plus.cfg [Video-GLideN64] #The game fails without this, however it slows down the menus immeasurably. BackgroundsMode = 1 #FBinfo needed for scroll updates in-game, however the logos at the beginning are no longer able to be seen. DisableFBInfo = False

@Gameboy please fill out https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first so we can get the full picture of your scenario, thanks :)

Thanks for the guide! Suggestion: put the es_input configuration as actual text that can be copied/pasted from the post and not a screenshot image :) Also put all configuration file content (es_input and inputautocfg) inside code blocks for better readability. # Like this option = value To do that, you need to surround the content with three back-quotes (```) or simply click the "code" button in the toolbar of the post editor.

I also wrote this once: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/12836/guide-how-to-n64-controller-setup-with-micro-s-n64-pcb-converter-and-mayflash-usb-adapter If you wanted to compare. :)

@edmaul69 I tried it, all of the buttons appear to be working properly.

lr-mupen64plus-next is released. And it is good, you must try it and ignore my previous post. It is in the experimental section.

Thanks everyone. i figured it out. Had to configure the buttons a little weird but now they work.

@Ashrill just be aware save states will not function when using omx as the audio plugin. Also the default volume is insanely loud and can't be adjusted as far as I know.

@pockketz said in mupen64plus-gles2rice-highres & mupen64plus-GLideN64-highres won't play .zip files: on the doc page .zip files are accepted extensions This is only for lr-mupen64plus, as it is the only one that is RetroArch configured through libretro. So yes, you will need to unzip your n64 roms if you want to use the other emulators. One of the many draw backs to n64 emulation.

@brunozero I have not noticed any issues with exiting mupen64plus on my pi. Please read and answer the questions so we can help you: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@CursedLemon Its going to vary by game, some games can run playable in 720p with the right emulator. But some games, like the zelda games, are not going to render above the n64's native res. You may get better performance overclocking the gpu but it wont effect the resolution. I'll take a look at what mine does with the framebuffer and get back.
