      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).

      !hack SEARCHTERM

      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 :)

      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.

      Struggled with this as nothing was working (I only had a wireless USB keyboard handy so I couldn't even get the pi to book into recovery mode). Figured out a pretty easy solution.... 'sudo passwd -d pi' deleted whatever was in the password field so I then could just use passwd to make a new one!

      @Darkrx8 So the socket was something like so:

      URBEST Inlet Module Plug 5A Fuse Switch Male Power Socket 10A 250V 3 Pin IEC320 C14 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ME5YAPK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_gpZcCbSJSXWX8

      Also, how exactly did you do up the wiring to the power strip in order for the built in button to be a master switch?

      @time-bandit said in Help with setting up my first rp 3b+:

      With or without vibration isn't a big thing for me. If it works great if not no biggie im more interested in replaying some of the old classics.

      We've seen reports where the controller would not start vibrating because it's not properly recognized by the OS, event if it works. I think you should consider another controller, but hey !, it's your money.

      Somehow I wasn't able to get Samba to work from my Mac but using SFTP with Filezilla (free program) works like a charm. It's worth a try if the Samba shares don't work out. Good luck!

      You can see a few examples here : https://www.deviantart.com/acidezabs/gallery/

      Those are really nice. I constantly have to restrain myself from buying these because I know I wouldn't stop. Still, there's one I couldn't say no to. I've had him for a few years and I still get a kick out of seeing him on my fridge.
