@backstander said in [HELP] PSX Horror Games Not Loading TRIED EVERYTHING: Keep us updated if you get the Japanese PS1 version of 'Kuon no Kizuna' working or not. I actually booted up the game, got the to menu, but no matter what I choose (there only 2 entries + a 'Disable Rumble' entry) there's some warning or info message that I can't understand and then it goes back to the main menu. I didn't test with changing the game region from the core options, there might be some DRM/region protection message that I can't understand :).

@lproj Oh okay then, I don't want hijack this thread. But to answer your question, in Steam Link app, you connect the gamepad to the smartphone. It works suprisingly good, have no apparent lag and have full support for all gamepads and mouse which Steam supports, but it is not over the internet. Although I am not super interested in streaming for now, this is still an interesting alternative project.

I stick with the hardware 4:3 option you can find in the IPS screen menu, so Two vertical black lines, but aspect ratio is respected. I have issues with it's battery : It is an "MX JOE" 18650 battery, mainly used in Ecigs... NOT so good ..(rewraped they say) this battery is advertised at 3000mah with a max instant current draw of 35 Amps. I do NOT think It is true though, since I have not a long Time to play before I see the small bolt upright. I think I am going to swap for a Sony VTC6 battery that seems to be a little better after reading tests on ECIGS forums... this hat only uses 1 Slot for a 18650, and I was wondering If I could put a 2 batteries slot (in paralel) to get a better autonomy... I admit I do NOT know anything about electronics and I was wondering If this could fry either the hat or the pie... Does anyone have an advice about that ? I know It is retropie forum and It Is NOT related to hardware. But maybe someone in this huge community has the answer.... voilà ! Please pardon my bad English... good day everyone ! merci !

@retropieuser1 unfortunately we do not support third party installs. as well as breaking the license, they are badly configured, ass you've found. please reinstall retropie from scratch as per https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/

@JToivonen got what you mean and here is the "un modified" solution...simply if you're playing plug the usb controller and when you finish just unplug it and it will shutdown automatically!, even when a power trigger happens "electricity went off then come back again" and found that your gamepad isn't connected it will shut down :) here is the python file you just need to edit the line that kills qjoypad to kill whole system add poweroff or shutdown -h as you use in your momentry switch don't forget to make the file run at start and special thanks to pablo idea behind the script is that system creates a js0 file for controller 1 inputs and js1 for controller 2 when connected and so on, the script searches for that file if it's found that mean you've connected the gamepad and probably playing a game and when you finish unplugging the gamepad removes js0 file and when the script discovers the file is not found it kills an app process called qjoypad which you'll change to shutdown please note you're not gonna use //User Variables section in this code so just ignore it.

@smokingman I’m sure all versions have that issue. I have the USA version and it also has that bug.

@paf said in Game description in detailed view does not scroll correctly: The power saving modes (other than "disabled") are not compatible with scrolling description text So disabling power saving solved my text scrolling problem. I hope this will help others to. Man thank you! This bugged me for a long time and I always thought it is something with the Emulation Station Themes and just kinda ignored it. Many thanks posting the solution, you helped me at this point.

@mitu yeah that could work, if someone is savvy enough to be wanting to change configs and such, then they would in theory have the know-how to get the pi online and ssh in anyway. I might have to have a play, see what happens

@reeebs said in [Rpi3] NDS touchscreen: I don’t expect nothing in particular, as the two positions - the real one of my finger and the one of the pointer - are completely wrong: if I move, it moves too, but when I am in a corner it starts from the center and so on That's very telling behavior and explains why the Dolphinbar wasn't recognized. The touchscreen is apparently being read in this case as a standard relative coordinates mouse. If it were being read as an absolute coordinates pointer device, the cursor would snap to wherever it was you touched at. Needless to say, this limitation combined with the wide area required to receive input really hinders precision.

Well...i thought i updated my laptop, but as it turns out as im on it now i did not and its on RetroArch 1.71. Ill do an update and see what happens...My pi 3b+ works even with my current overclocking tests so if things go south... I did reinstall retropie on all 3 machines. My method of testing involved stripping the drive of its partition table, install my OS of choice (deb based of course), and then i installed retropie. Nothing else in between. Edit: More info I was wrong on that. Its RetroArch 1.7.1 on the desktop machine, but i was able to unfortunatly recreate this on the pi by doing an apt update, apt upgrade. It upgraded a few things such as the bootloader and the kernel, but as im watching it it seemed to have partially removed xpad - i say partially because it stated removing xpad and blah blah, but then in the retropie setup script it showed it as installed. Im not sure which action if not both caused the issue, but reinstalling xpad after a reboot did not resolve it. So my Pi no longer works in Retroarch for player one. Does anyone know of any fixes for this, incompatabilities, bugs within the newest kernel or anything of the sort? It is entirely possible that i did the same on the desktop before doing that second reboot so im kinda leaning toward it being kernel issue since xpad was NOT installed.

@lostless Thanks for the link, it does seem like the problem I'm having. I'll have to try the patch that was mentioned at the end of the thread and see how it goes. Unfortunately my build is in a old NES case with the two original controller always plugged in and inaccessible without opening up the entire case. So if I can't figure this out I guess my only remedy is to open the case and unplug the NES controllers each time I want to use the SNES ones. Here's hoping that isn't what I have to do.

@bulletbutter no, but you could copy the relevant config files/directories over, with much the same effect. it depends what kind of things you've configured.

@mitu said in Spectrum Next Emulator: @ballboff Has any game actually been released for the new system, one that would use the new features added to the system ? Yeah the one that I mentioned is called "dungeonette" and it uses the full colour palette of the new system. There are also some demos knocking about and i've heard rumours about a new dizzy game in the works...

@silviustro said in Making a custom product using RetroPie: @markyh444 Pretty sure less than 1% of the people buying something like this would be capable of installing such a script. What about a pre-made image? Just a thought on this. If people aren't able to work through running a script, then you're going to have a nightmare situation with support when problems pop up, and they will pop up.

If you are set on using a big CRT. You gotta make the cabinet very strong. I'd suggest 3/4 MDF or Pine hardboard.

It worked, downloaded it from optional packages from retropie.

@mitu I don’t have a usb keyboard I can use, I have been using VNC and my laptop to set up RetroPie.
