@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 :)

Espgaluda - I'm currently taking a brave step into the world of bullet hell. Love this one. Street Fighter 3 Alpha - I got my son into Street Fighter and we enjoy learning new moves together. Amazing 2d artwork in these. Wipeout + Wip3out - Wipeout pushed the world of gaming into mainstream acceptance. Looks cool has great 90s club music and brilliant visual design. (I'm partial as I used to work with one of the designers) And of course it's got great gameplay. Sonic - Favorite game of my yuf. Golden Axe - Used to play this with my brother and we still do now and then.
(Also I'm playing through Super Metroid right now for the first time, I love the music and the different areas.)
