      How is this related to RetroPie ? If your only usage of the Pi is for Kodi, then I'd recommend you install a Kodi distribution like LibreElec.

      @sleve_mcdichael - ah thanks for the info! Last time I set up a pi system (3b) was about 6 years ago so I'm out of touch :)

      @Lolonois - thanks for replying so quickly. I was reading the MobyGames section on https://gemba.github.io/skyscraper/SCRAPINGMODULES/ and it sounded like it could be something cool, but maybe i'm trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. So far screenscraper, openretro, etc are covering things really well. I might look into it more and report back if there is anything worthwhile there. Cheers!

      FWIW, in short: it instructs the kernel to relax the USB protocol for devices that do not implement the USB HID spec by the letter, either because of poorly engineered/implemented firmware or the vendor did not foresee/test a specific setup (in this case connecting four devices of the same kind).

      The hexadecimal numbers relate to <vendorid>:<deviceid>:<applicable quirk> (Links to kernel source code tree).

      @d3r3kdrumm0nd please mark your initial post title with [solved] as a courtesy for other users who might face the same issue.

      @pie_droid Yes, you would have to have to use the same setting you paired with on the pi. It gets recognized as a different controller otherwise.

      @jdotfite

      I reached out to losernator and he was kind enough to provide an explanation and a quick fix:

      "Piemarquee2 gets the rom name from the list of running processes, and game-specific options should affect that.

      It seems that mk.zip.cfg was recognized as a rom file
      quick fix : rename marquee "mk.png" into "mk.zip.png"

      I created a duplicate mk.png and mk.zip.png to take care of the menu and in-game and all is good now!

      @busywait said in Advise Regarding High Scores in Donkey Kong:

      The sounds are a little harsher in fbneo (more high-frequency?)

      The sound in FBNeo should be accurate (one of our devs has access to the cabinet). Make sure you are using the right sample file for each emulator, iirc MAME need sample files with the matching samplerates, while that shouldn't be a major problem (apart maybe quality loss) for FBNeo which will convert at runtime if it doesn't match the expected samplerate. You might also want to play around with sound settings in FBNeo's core options if you don't like the default (requires restart). Btw, i'm using that sample with dkong on FBNeo (it's not copyrighted content afaik so it should be ok to share).

      @busywait said in Advise Regarding High Scores in Donkey Kong:

      The girders are more pink in fbneo

      FBNeo has the right colors (iirc the pink is not the only difference), it was fixed around 2011 in MAME and backported to FBAlpha in 2018.

      @churchill7 in mame2003-plus and mame2003 this core option will be hidden unless you're playing a game that uses the feature. I recommend running pacman then going into the core options.

      https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/blob/7ea22d44c0d899cf7670d458cd6dac0942839d2d/src/mame2003/mame2003.c#L187

      The default is probably decent though like you observed in Tron.

      @mitu

      That seems to have sorted it! Thank you!

      When I stared out I first visited the retropie docs
      https://retropie.org.uk/docs/PC/#install-gravis-ultrasound-gus

      Which redirected me to this guide from 2015, that suggest using .sh scripts.
      Now that everything is working I'll start converting everything over to just using conf-files, and optimizing the games :)

      Video smoothing often makes the picture way too mushy for my taste, especially if the original resolution is very low. I prefer good crt shaders like the zfast shaders from @ghogan42.

      As for other video settings, I prefer the "core provided" aspect ratio, because I don't like, say, a 4:3 picture stretched to today's common 16:9, or the 3:4 ratio of many classic vertical games stretched to the native 4:3 on my DIY cabinet, making all game characters appear a little overweight to outright obese.

      @melbmatt50 i did - both links are instructions for “headless” (no screen) set ups. you just need to plug your sd card into the pc you used to the write the image and create files in the /boot/ partition.

      If you use a Euro (PAL) rom on a US (NTSC) machine, the game will run fast.
      If you use a US (NTSC) rom on a Euro (PAL) machine, it will run slow.

      So, if you are in the US running RetroPie on a US TV, you should not use a European rom. You can switch the Pi into PAL mode (if you have a TV that can tolerate it) and it will run at normal speed, but I wouldn't recommend it if you can just get the US version instead.

      As outlined in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first, we don't support 3rd party images.
      Selling systems with the RetroPie image bundled is against the project's license, and the games/roms included are also probably not licensed. We don't support scammers.
