Booting into terminal fixed the problem and the games worked.
Thank you for the help 🙏

@ryan said in Hello New here please help:

I am making an arcade with a IPAC2. How can I set up a two-player system once I'm on retropie? Thanks.

https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Keyboard-Controllers/#configuration-example-ipac

Added an automatic installation script today:

Also some stability fixes and expanded controller support since my last post.

@CodeKing Try installing the desktop first - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#where-did-the-desktop-go - and then selecting the boot to desktop - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#how-do-i-boot-to-the-desktop-or-kodi.

Make sure you're package list fully updated first - run sudo apt update from a terminal or use the RetroPie-Setup update function to update the OS/packages.

@Noe5 Please add more information about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Also i have found out i needed to update all emulators from within Retropie-setup. i seems the achievements normally only work with the latest versions of the emulators.

@mitu mb xD Thanks anyway

Still though, would have been nice for Citra to benefit from USB ROM transfer and stuff.

@mitu Thanks for the answer, I understood everything, I will think.

@mesprit It's just the way to make things easier. On barely every mashine BASIC will show Hello World with

10 print "Hello World"

The CPU instructions for doing this are different so you might need a different BASIC interpreter for every "system".

But this is also very abstractive - but hope you get it.
Imho you can use a Pi0/1 image on a Pi2/3 revision but you will loose benefits for some optimized emulators. That's what @mitu said in his previous posting.

It depends on how is it connected to the Pi - if it's HDMI, you can get an HDMI splitter and connect both your TV and the screen at once.

@VictimRLSH I remember that commercial!

@benret Raspbian Jessie is no longer supported - I think you get a nice message about that when you try to run the RetroPie-Setup script.

Installation on Buster hasn't been 100% vetted, but most bits should work - support for it will probably be part of the RetroPie release that supports the Pi4.

For now, using Raspbian Stretch will give you the best supported Raspbian version for RetroPie.

RetroPie though uses Raspbian Lite underneath, with very little changes added to the system. As far as wireless/networking goes, there's literally no change from a stock Raspbian Lite installation.

You can use the RetroArch network interface to send commands to RA through a script that's called when you press the button - http://docs.libretro.com/development/retroarch/network-control-interface/#enabling. It looks like the interface supports the 'Disk Next/Prev' commands so you can switch disks, but I don't see a command to get the current disk index. Maybe you parse the RA log to get the current disk index and determine if you need to go next/prev in the disk index list.

Worked for me too! Thanks!

I've released v1.2.0 of the Godot "emulator" scriptmodule!

Changelog Support for GPIO/Virtual keyboards (GPIOnext or Adafruit's Retrogame, among others) for single board computers, such as the Raspberry Pi.

Here's a little video* of a game I'm workin on using Godot for the Raspberry Pi.
