@GonzoPi said in Prebuilt retropie images not booting:

@wmarcio my apologies, I only included the specific images to be as precise as possible, if I deleted the post and reposted without reference to those specific images would that be more appropriate?

It's not about appropriate; it's about the fact that those are not official RetroPie products. They are repackaged with with copyrighted material and violate the user license. Unless you are trying to install an official image, you won't get help here.

@mitu

Thank you very much for the Link , Very Helpful and Up to date

So a simply answer is It doesn't work Properly at the moment

we're waiting on an update on fixes

@GoldManSex778
I ended up getting a second DS3, I guess there is no need to save for curiosity.

I think they're pretty reasonable for a PI3.

Fixed: I downloaded Satan Paint (spaint.exe) and dos4gw.exe (to run spaint.exe under DOS). I used DOSBox to run spaint.exe and I created the .pcx (blank image) that were missing in the icons.spe file (from the nums0016.pcx to the nums0045.pcx), so I created a new icons.spe file and now it works correctly .
Here is the modified icons.spe file to work: https://github.com/Xenoveritas/abuse/files/2264348/icons.zip

@jonnykesh said in starter pack memory problemo :(:

@kidcy It's obviously not meant to happen. Did you buy a Pi3B+ by any chance?
If it is the "plus" you need the image from this forum and not from the download page.

Thank you Jonnykesh. I've actually got retropie (pi3b+ beta) running! Nice to finally see something on screen!

Now to try and get some games :)

After years of playing Outrun daily I'm taking a break from it lol.
Currently i'm mostly playing games on a small CRT TV, so there are quite some games i want to plat on that that i havent played in a long time, just because they look amazing on CRT and not so much on a modern screen.

Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain (PSX) (I wish the same company made the later games too, it's just so good.)
Rent a Hero (SEGA Megadrive) There is a Fan translated patch out there, this game seems incredibly fun (also someone is currently translating the Dreamcast sequel.)
A.B. Cop (SEGA Arcade) It is allot like Taito's Chase series, but set in the future, since i played the Taito games to death, this one is nice variation to keep the genre fresh.
Rival Schools / Street Fighter Ex 2 Plus / Fatal Fury - Wild Ambition (PSX) counting this as one cause lets be honest... They all look absolutely crap on LCD or Plasma, but pretty decent on CRT. so might has well have some ass kicking fun in these now i can actually enjoy them.
