@tomjohn77 If that suggestion doesn't work just reorder the manually edited es_systems.cfg so that the the system you want to start on is at the top and the system you want to be left of the starting system is on the right then put the Retropie menu "system" in the middle of es_systems.cfg

@WilsonB Hey that is an emulator problem, and you can maybe configure it the dev menu of the emulator right when you are starting any game in MAME you would get a text that says "press any button to go to dev mode'' so I would recommend you try and switch the controller scheme using that menu. I had the same problem with the PSX emulator, and I saw a video by eta prime explaining how to switch the PSX emulator controller scheme to have analog functions.

Did you set this image up yourself? If there's no reason you know of for that file existing, then it should be backed up to be completely safe and then removed from that location. After it's been removed and Emulation Station is restarted, the Jaguar system should show up. If there is a reason for it existing there, the Jaguar information your looking to copy can be found at /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg.

@SonPluck The images won't be re-downloaded unless you delete them. There is an option to overwrite or append to the gamelist. Append will preserve the existing data including the last played and number of times played and only add in new games.

@SonPluck No problem. But it says to hold any button to skip.

There is no gamecube or ps2 emulator for the rpi3 and it's way beyond the capabilities of the RPI.

Did you disable the retropie splashscreen ? Please post the contents of your /boot/cmdline.txt

Note you can speed up boot by disabling "wait for network" in raspi-config.

Also - Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

Please provide as much information as possible.

I can always ask a generic controller question.

You can do so and someone may be able to help. However, you'll always be working at a disadvantage in regard to troubleshooting any problems going forward, as you will never be sure exactly what was changed in the image that could be a contributing factor. This will not only exhaust your own time, but also that of others trying to help you.

I just wanted to update this post as I fixed the issue. I had installed the Adafruit-Retrogame manually and forgot to add the rules (see end of this guide https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-Retrogame)

now it's working, hope this helps fix similar issues.

@herb_fargus Thanks for the reply. I have tried a few things with no luck. If the text names are hard coded that will be the reason. Thanks.

I will just scrape meta-data then maually edit either developer or publisher with the horizontal
or vertical text.

Just a quick thought which location is a 'safe place' to avoid the metadata being over written on a system/theme update?

Thanks

@Acrylikhan installed Ultimate doom on PC using DosBox to extract wad file. Everything works great... all is correct in this tiny universe here.

@wiiant the real question is if there are any ARM specific optimisations for the pi that would lend any benefit over the current vice emulator or if due to the lack of processing power of the pi it would run like cold tar in attempting cycle accuracy ;)

looks the source is available, but will require basic compilation knowledge and even more retropie specific knowledge to turn it into a module for retropie. I don't really have time to look into it but there are guides online for compiling under Linux and there probably is a specific guide for compilation on the emulator site or readme

@Shay You may want to check the link in my signature. I just made a quick video about this right before Christmas. I am at work right now so everything is blocked but the Enable HD graphincs for N64 video should help you out.

@Chip1184 have you restarted Emulation Station since adding the ROMs? As @BuZz says, please read the wiki for first time setup guidelines.

@ljustino did you read the link above regarding romset versions ?

You may be able to launch your python script from the runcommand-onstart script and reset it with the runcommand-onend script.

See: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#runcommand-onstart-and-runcommand-onend-scripts

I backed up what I needed and started over fresh. Everything is working fine now. Thank you though.
