@RetroS3xual Thank you for research. Any help is appreciated. Yes i believe so i also read somewhere that it is only up to OpenGL 2.0 that the Raspberry Pi can accept. As long as running with OpenGL through OpenGL ES is slow, i would stay away from it and then only run ZDoom or any other source port with Software SDL renderer, since it runs best in that setting. Maybe i should try compiling GZDoom 1.8.6 as you did. I can create a scriptmodule for RetroPie once we have something working. :-)

@t_mitch That is unfortunate, maybe there is something on warranty, I think the Pi's have been successful they may be agreeable if you tell them. 5V 2A isn't far out of the level guidelines if this is what caused it, while it says nowhere to use a phonecharger, there are HP chargers and others replacements that are often used.

@mitu Thank you so much. This solved my problem. I never knew there was such trouble just copying files. And thanks again for the advice, copying over wifi and ssh 10.000 small files is really a bad idea. :)

@mitu Thanks for your reply. I finally figured it out the problem was PEBKAC!!! I had the joystick plugged into the wrong 5 pin port. I thought there was only the one and I was wrong. Totally my bad but thanks for the help. I'm going to leave this up since I could not find any solutions to this problem anywhere and it might help someone.

@mitu my verison i had was like 4.1 or 4.2 cant really remember but i updated from source

@clyde okay right but a full grown standalone USB2 transfers up to 40 MB/s that is 4 times faster as your LAN. How fast is a Raspberry with his shared USB Controller? 10MB/s? 15? Didn't test but a NAS is dedicated for file moving and if the Pie 4 got some interface upgrades it is maybe as fast as your 2011 Synology (cool device BTW with the best UI I have ever seen)

@lostless Right! The chance of a broken .state## file is high if the emulator gots some bug fixes. It's even nearly impossible to port savestates from RPi0/1 versions to RPi2/3/3+ A savestate feature you can always rely is the SRM state. As it's just a part of the ROM itself and is treated as memory dump. But not every game provides this and afaik only home consoles.

@sanbadgerdude Take a look at https://github.com/anqixu/sixad_rumble or http://wiki.ros.org/ps3joy. Your topic has nothing to do with RetroPie, maybe it's better to start with the links above and see if it helps you.

@superpiboy said in Raspberry Pi 3 B+ released: @ecks Hi, thank you for you reply. 65-70°C is too high for me to my handheld projects. I wonder how much degree RPI3B+ is in normal using condiiton with a heatsink? for example in playing PS1 game ? without overclock. This video will give you an idea for the temps on the Pi 3B+

I was having heating issues after overclocking for N64/Shader usage. Tried the cheap heatsink route, and as suggested, did very little (as you say, probably the glue used). I've also tried larger cases with fans but the way it was set up meant it was just pushing warm air around, it was cooler but nowhere near the results I got with my passive-cooling case. I looked into Flirc cases and then stumbled across the BIQU case, it's about half the price and works fantastically. I've never had the thermal symbol show since using it and the case itself doesn't get too hot either (you can feel it is warm when being used, but no shocks or being too hot to touch as some have suggested with passive-cooling style cases). I also added a little thermal paste on the points of contact - it may not be necessary but I had some lying around so thought it wouldn't hurt.

@pepijn123games No problem, glad you fixed it. Arcade ROMs are always tricky to get right.

@paddyo41 No probs. These type of issues tend to be hardware related 95+% of the time. Hardware is always the easiest thing to swap out. If it persists after checking / replacing hardware then software is the next stop obviously.

@fingal perfect! That’s what I was hoping it would do, but hard to explain exactly. So:witnessed you have to go back to games that you already tried mapp8ng 8n this manner and update those too, because they might have their individual saved key maps. Glad we solved it.

@dankcushions Got it. Thanks - appreciate the clarification. I think I was simply mistaken on what the proper AR should look like for those games. Although I think as a personal preference I like Mat Mania slightly wider (1:1).

@bowman I have never had to use any additional software for file access from my Mac to Pi3. I have always just used the Finder, Go menu etc. That said, you may have a folder permissions issue that you could check using command line. It will be in your long term best interest to pick up some linux command line knowledge and try connecting to your Pi with SSH. You may need to use the pi config to enable SSH, but once done, you can get in using Terminal. Try ssh pi@retropie.local and use the password raspberryto login and now you can navigate with command line to check permissions, delete files that are not visible from the Finder, etc. Or you could try resetting the ROM directory permissions using the technique in the FAQ. This would be a lot easier if it fixes things.

Supposing you have already Emulationstation + Retroarch running, you first have to enter the Retroarch menu and download the mednafen_saturn core. Then you need to paste this: <system> <fullname>Sega Saturn</fullname> <name>saturn</name> <path>~.emulationstation\roms\saturn</path> this is the path to your roms directory <extension>.iso .ISO .mdf .MDF .cue .CUE</extension> <command>%HOME%.emulationstation\systems\retroarch\retroarch.exe -L %HOME%.emulationstation\systems\retroarch\cores\mednafen_saturn_libretro.dll "%ROM_RAW%"</command> this is where you tell ES what core to use <platform>saturn</platform> <theme>saturn</theme> </system> in your es_systems.cfg file; beware of slashes/backslashes and all depending of which OS you're running. Secondly, you'll need to put the proper BIOS file in the retroarch/system directory, see here: https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Saturn And then of course you need to put all your roms in your roms directory. If you don't want to go the retroarch route, I guess you can use the standalone mednafen but I have no experience with it.

I have pretty much resorted to AdvanceMame for anything that the lr-MAME cores (mostly 2003) can't handle with a decent framerate and no glitches on the Pi3, and it's been surprisingly reliable. I can even run the Sega System 24 games on it without any slowdown or problems, namely Bonanza Bros, CrackDown and Gain Ground. Strongly recommend.

@Darksavior I think that must be the case then. None of the games have a cue file. I have to create them. They just have the binary file.
