@mitu ugh... got it. I see what you mean now.. "save core preset". That worked. Thanks... and I also jumped on the bandwagon for the safe-shutdown script while I was at it. Works great as well... no more text when I shut down. you're top dog for sure!

@Darksavior said in MAME ROMS and Retropie 4.6: I recommend using finalburn neo first and use one of the mame's (2003plus, 2010, or 2016) for games fbn does not emulate well or not at all. This is good advice :) I have fbneo set as the default emulator for my Arcade Roms and just going through and checking my modest collection ... (from A to E so far about 70 roms) about a dozen games won't work with fbneo and have had to use a different emulator. Also have to change a fair few of the default controls mapping as well. Also, the MAME Romset revision is pretty important as well. If the OP has downloaded a version(s) that isn't supported ... then nothing will work.

@lostless said in Sega CD ROMS Fail to Load: @Metal-Ghost you can just duplicate the bios file and rename it for genesis plus gx. Then you’ll have a bios for both picodrive and genesis plus gx Or you can do this in RetroPie: Press F4 in Emulation Station to get to the command shell. Enter cd RetroPie/BIOS/ to go to the BIOS directory. Copy the BIOS file to another with the correct name for lr-genesis-plus-gx with the command cp us_scd1_9210.bin bios_CD_U.bin. (Mind the capitalization, as Linux does, too.) Or even quicker but more write-intensive, do 2. and 3. in one command: cp RetroPie/BIOS/us_scd1_9210.bin RetroPie/BIOS/bios_CD_U.bin Return to Emulation Station with exit.

@YFZdude So I was able to get SSelph's scraper to work, but after a while, it started giving me "hash not found" errors and a "panic: runtime error". I've been searching for solutions for this, but I've found next to no information on the issue and the github page doesn't seem to be active. I'm gonna try Skraper and see if that gives me better results.

@mitu will do... thanks again! Great find and fix!

@mitu Sorry, for whatever reason it suddenly started to work. I didn't change anything and it's the same games that I tried before. Weird to say the least. But thank you for your time and help.

Disabled full kms driver and went back to fkms still no dice.... however, I uninstalled wolf4sdl and installed ecwolf and it now works flawlessly. Thanks Ghost I will mark this solved for now.

@mitu Yes, that solved everything. Thank you kindly for your time and help. I appreciate it a lot.

@goldug said in Runcommand messes up resolution for some reason: because I hadn't changed anything, but yes, it seems there is now for some reason. You added something, there is nothing in stock RetroPie that creates those files automatically.

@ReadyPlayaWon said in .mu3 multidisc PSX does not work: it needs to be .m3u ... not .mu3 I think that was just a typo, the screenshot shows the file as .m3u and the file is also listed in the EmulationStation's gamelist (so the extension is picked up). @neogeo1981 - can you double check the extension of your .cd1/.cd2 files and make sure there's not a .cue present ? The OS might hide the extension and this might explain why they still show up in the list.

Correct, @mitu , I created a separate system that lists the conf files: <system> <name>p2000t</name> <fullname>Philips P2000</fullname> <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/p2000t</path> <extension>.conf .CONF</extension> <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ p2000t %ROM%</command> <platform>p2000t</platform> <theme>p2000t</theme> </system> Runcommand looked good: Parameters: Executing: /opt/retropie/emulators/dosbox-sdl2/bin/dosbox -conf "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/p2000t/Monkey.conf" fluidsynth: warning: Requested a period size of 64, got 480 instead fluidsynth: warning: Failed to set thread to high priority fluidsynth: warning: Failed to pin the sample data to RAM; swapping is possible.

If we collectively believe this is a problem with a 20-year old emulator, I am also content to call this one good enough and run without a joystick. :)

Everything is fine now, the site came back online, restarted the install and it went fine till the end. Thanks!

Another reason could be that the rom name doesn't match the video name.

@mitu By saying that I use Archlinux, it was to say that I understand how it works. In the end I found the "xpad driver" bug. I could already see myself doing a new installation. The only thing that doesn't work for me is when I run .sh to run retroarch, generate favorites ... from ssh yes. But it is a lesser evil that will have a solution. My next system with retropie will already be a minipc with ryzen. That although I have all the consoles, I love to emulate.

this seems to be concerned to this thread, have a look at the last posting: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/27507/libretro-cores-wiped-out-restored

well, i deleted the custom es-systems.cfg file, reinstalled all the emulators and they now appear on the system list and games are launching well. Thanks a lot for the help. I have lost the system PC Engine CDROM that i created outside PCENGINE as a standalone system, i need to figure out how to create it again without making a custom es_systems.cfg file ! This topic can be marked as solved !

Thank you both It Worked!!!! that did the trick !!!!!!

I ended up trading my ps4 controller with a friend that had one that came with her console. Kinda sucked because I really liked the Electric Purple color but I'd rather have a working wireless controller than one that's just a paperweight. I wonder if Sony changed something slightly with their controllers that kept it from connecting to Raspberry OS. I guess this topic can be closed now since it's technically resolved.

@DavidDraper said in Issue with multiple "USB Controller " controllers...: /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig I thought whatever is in there is automatically copied into /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads; It's the same folder, the latter is a symlink to the former. pi@retropie $ file /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads: symbolic link to /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig
