RetroPie doesn't boot into the Vice emulator by default, did you modify the auto-start sequence ?

I have software/some games, how do I load/run my games on the Pi400 C64??

You can copy the game files (floppy/cassete images) in the c64 rom folder and you can then load them from the Vice menu. Normally, if you start in the EmulationStation front-end, they would be listed and you can just start each one from the list with vice/lr-vice.

Do I put all my games onto a Flash drive and plug that into the Pi400?
Or do I put them on the SD card?

@ffaddic ok, I got, I need to convert to .chd by chdman under Linux;) Thx

@bigbay you are welcomed.
If you need any help creating your own image feel free to ask here.
There are resources and options to build a gernan based image.
I.e. you are even able to set some arcade games from Atari and Capcom (Dungeons and Dragons, Aliens vs. Predator, Xybots,...) to german language.
Get ready for "Münze einwerfen!" :D ("insert coin!")

@h2805270 got this running on mine https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Debian/

@mitu
Tried it on a 4k tv and now it works

I'm fairly certain that most of the Disney tie-in games had chiptune versions of the music. I don't really have time to look up which songs charted right now but there's a lot of games that fall into that category.

@iandaemon What about the title "Lock N Chase" or that "Tower of Druaga" game, I remember in the Tower of Druaga: The Aegis of Uruk anime they had a cocktail arcade cabinet in the dungeon of that very game.

@mitu thank you for your help. when checking for the info you asked I saw that after the update it changed the default emulator from MAME4ALL to FBNEO. I changed it back and all is well now.

Thank You

@BZHGames said in Enter the contest for the best CPC players #GAME:

But in France, "abandonware" games are free to use.

Do you have a link to an official law/regulation ?

I don't see how to modify my topic to delete the link. Is it possible or should you delete the topic completely?

I've edited the text, you can do so from the hamburger menu at the lower right of your post.

I don't think anyone really replied as to the best theme for this type of setup? What themes that work well?

Sorry, but you're using a 3rd party image bundled with the hardware, which we don't/can't support.
Note that selling RetroPie is against the project's license - https://retropie.org.uk/about/legal/, so you've been scammed, since RetroPie is free/open source software.

@victimrlsh I know it's meant to have a rotary with push-down for fire, with a separate single "grenade/enter tank" button in the middle of the panel.... so I did the best I could with my panel and it works fairly well.

I have a split two-player joystick setup... left joystick is set to be the player control, right joystick is the gun/turret position control. Directly below and next to the right joystick, I have two buttons for the old school "two-player" games. The button closest to the joystick I can hit with the base of my hand, or just point the joystick and drop down to fire continuously. So that became the "fire" button. The adjacent button is the "grenade/enter tank" button, which I can slap or hit quick with my other finger, then jump back on the joystick.. etc.

Also.... my Joysticks on this particular cabinet are original Wico leaf-button sticks. I tried using the newer cherry switch style buttons that I have on another cabinet.. but the feel is not the same.

If you need a pic, let me know.

And PlayStation retroachievement support as well on 1.7.7+

@Deityfierezy you are better for now with the 3+

A new bang is registered. I don't start a new thread for this, as it is for an external site and not about Retropie itself (and to be honest, its not that important).

This one will start a search in the https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/ website. It will sort the romhacks by date, so you see the newest entries first.

It's private. Thanks for asking btw :) Hopefully when it's FINSIHED (still testing, making tweeks, etc), I'll upload it. It's for now, just a RPI 3B attached to a Official 7" Screen. You could probably imagine it :)

The RetroPie manager has a log file at /dev/shm/rpmanager.log, you can check there for errors.

WARNING: Overlocking can damage your pi.

Hello,

I have been messing around with the pi 1 model b, and I have found that if you overclock the retropi, to 1000mHz, and sigificantly increases your speed of pi and are able to play emulators that you were not able to play before. This includes Sega 32x and GBA. However overclocking your pi can seriously damage your pi. This is because you are forcing the CPU to work faster then it was designed for. Recommand you do this for short periods of time, but never long term. The only Pi that you can successfully overclock is the Pi Zero, which has been designed at the hardware level to run at 1000mHz. To overclock go to retropi settings and then go to overclocking.

Also if you add a keyboard and mouse you can use the ports emulator. In the retropi settings, to to retro pi setup. Click on optional packages, that then scroll down to the bottom of the list, you will find a selection of open-source (free) games to play with a keyboard and mouse. Connect the pi to the internet and download from binary. Reboot the pi and then play. All work on the pi 1 model b without overclocking.

Thank you and regards.
