@mitu said in It's possible to integrate Samurai Showdown Perfect in Retropie?:

EDIT: samsh5fe titlescreen is still 'Samurai Showdown V Special', maybe it's not the 'perfect edition'.

Fullname of samsh5fe is "Samurai Shodown V Special (Final Edition, location test version)", it is indeed what some people refer to as "Perfect Edition". The word "Perfect" feels kinda counterfeit though, afaik they simply removed some gameplay elements from "Samurai Shodown V Special" (probably making the game more casual in the process) to make room for a story mode.

Except if you are using a non-merged romset, you'll probably need its parent samsh5sp.

@fcibx6r1un said in It's possible to integrate Samurai Showdown Perfect in Retropie?:

From what I understand the "Perfect" edition of the game is an emulator that runs the "Special" edition, and overlays it with new content. It isn't a self-contained ROM.

To be more precise, the commercial emulator from "Samurai Shodown Collection" uses some quirks to replace the title screen and to add an english translation to the story mode. FBNeo use the raw romset and doesn't have any of those quirks.

The NesPI 4 SATA controller is affected by the issue detailed in https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=245931. There's a workaround for it, described in that topic.

I found out where the files are and how to import and export saves finally. Thanks again @mitu.

@dreamcastkid thx! not using the SCPH1001 bios did the trick.

@mitu Tried all of that, no luck still....

@mitu Thank you! Resolution gave weird results, but screensize seems to work :) For emulationstation that is.

I also managed to rotate the screen properly for the games, but they only have a very small box in the middle, the rest is black. I shall figure this out, and once I do I can finally play, haha.

@lucent88 said in Rpi 4 w/ official 7in touch screen no hdmi out:

is there a way to make it detect on plug and unplug or do i just need to reboot, every time?

With the config.txt approach, yes, a reboot is needed since the configuration is only applied on boot. Not sure if there is a way to enable it at runtime - maybe for the HDMI port.

Run the speaker system for the cabinet to the audio jack.

That's the best way, and it's pure sound from the card.

HDMI sound is good, but really for a console style setup.

I have 3 MAME and 2 dedicated Arcade cabinets. All but one is set up this way. The one cabinet is all original, so I didn't mess with the set up. The rest all use 2.1 sound systems plugged into the audio jack of whatever I have running the cabinet.

@mohrad I think you 'll need to do it cause the vanilla driver is wrongly recognizing any touches in the first place. Also the install does not work for me, maybe because i created the steambuild folder in the wrong directory

I switched it to 1080p and it works perfectly. Thank you!

@kgm316 via what method are you changing them? please fill out https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

Oh ok, thanks @mitu

And in the meantime I've tried just about every possible setting in lr-yabasanshiro and Nights is still choppy. It's not far from being playable, but it's not playable currently (much like Panzer Dragoon Saga).

Hey - raspberry pi 3b+ here - i was getting crackling when I plugged in my monster bluetooth speaker in via audio jack (it also had an audio jack). Then tried very old computer speakers, no crackling...not sure if this will help you at all, but worth noting in this thread.

@mitu
I haven’t been able to find it online, all I have is the user manual that came with it (though I’ll have to find it again)

@mitu got it, thank you! thumbsup

Starting the service as early as the 'local-fs' target doesn't always work, if the framebuffer is not initialized, then you can't display anything. For the Pi4, the display is re-initialized when the KMS/DRM framebuffer emulation is loaded, so any images shown before that will simply be erased.

You can try using the modifying the existing asplashscreen service (defined in /etc/systemd/system/asplashscreen.service) and see if changing the dependencies will make it start earlier, but the result might not be what you want.

@Botspot said in What APT packages are installed when I run the installer?:

Is there a centralized place I can look to get this installed package list?

No, there isn't a central list of packages. As I said in the Github issue you opened, each package that is part of RetroPie has it's own list of dependencies, which is automatically installed when that particular package is installed. The dependencies are declared in the module's depends function. Since the user can install or remove any package, the list of dependencies can change.

A base installation will install the 'core' and 'main' packages, you can see here, you could get the list of dependencies for the packages in those 2 sections and consider them a minimum list of dependencies. Some of them might already be installed on the system, so when removing RetroPie you might take that into account.

EDIT: the initial dependencies for the RetroPie-Setup script to work are listed in the Manual installation page.
