Yeah, still no luck. So strange, as I had been able to use my gamepads in Xinput mode for at least a couple years from maybe 2019 onward till I updated my whole RetroPie OS and packages just a couple weeks ago. However, in going through the comments in github for xpad, it does seem like others are having issues with connecting their wired controllers through Xinput mode. Either way, thanks for your help up to this point and I'll keep digging around.

@windg oh my gosh, that is just unbelievable!

Ok, i renew my question...will there be a 4.7.21 in 2022? :D

@treysonik said in Trouble Updating Retropie on 3b+:

I’d like to let them know and possibly donate more if the problem gets solved. As I said before I don’t change any settings in the emulators themselves and the difference was night and day.

Make sure you use the latest RetroPie version and test again your N64 game(s), then open a separate topic and add the info from https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. A verbose log - as explained in the aforementioned topic - should be helpful - post it on pastebin.com and provide the link in your topic.

@dankcushions It finished while I was at work. Any other updates I should do?!?!
I will remember for next time though... Binary, not source...

@uberlumby said in Retro pie script update failure:

@retropieuser555 good tip I'm just trying to update emulation station I did it manually no big deal I'll reset once retroarch 1.9.0 gets supported officially.

Why did you get 1.9.0 same reason? I got it because retro achievements popping up would freeze on 1.8.8

I was trying to fix a problem I found recently where lots of lr-mupen64plus-next games have various achievements listed as "unsupported". Thought it might be due to using the older retroarch, but unfortunately it didn't fix it.

To anyone having the same problem:

Copy your installed lr-fbneo to a new location (through terminal):
sudo cp -p -r -f "/opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-fbneo" "/opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-fbneo10"

Edit \\RETROPIE\configs\fba\emulators.cfg
and add to the top of the file:
lr-fbneo10 = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-fbneo10/fbneo_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/fba/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"
and change your default emulator for Final Burn Alpha in EmulationStation to lr-fbneo10

@wholee said in XPADNEO error on Update:

When you have the time, would you be able to update the Retropie Setup script?

It will happen at some point.

That's what I call an all-encompassing answer ;-)
Thanks a lot mitu.

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!

Then it means you have the default repositories and there's nothing you should add. Unfortunately, that doesn't solve the problem - pcsx2 does not have native 64bit binaries and it needs the i686 (32 bit) dependencies installed. Your current distro configuration does not have installable packages for the dependencies needed to run pcsx2 - this is not a RetroPie problem, but something that's entirely up the the distribution you're using.
You could try installing the i686 version of Linux Mint and you won't have this problem.

@tylerx Retropie Manager is an unofficial addon and people seem to be having many issues with it. I have used it though - did you follow this?
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

which you agreed to do.

@mitu

That is awesome and there are some great new features!

@mitu fair enough. I appreciate the points made and now realise its wrong. All i'd say is i wanted a retro games box and this looked great. Its raspberry pi from what i've read. I'll wait for the dude to get back from holiday. Just wondered if anyone had encountered the same message and if there was any commands i could try to get emulation station retropie working again.

If the mods want to delete this thread then by all means. I tried but it says i can't once someone has replied. Appologies all.

@solaris old images can be found here - https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/releases

@obsidianspider Related topic - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/13485/new-fail-safe-for-updating/5 - you might have run into the same issue. See also https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/2159, which might have a workaround.

How, by looking at a GitHub, do I know when the last 'binary' has been built?

https://github.com/libretro/nestopia/ ... for example

@angeluskarl77 No problem at all. Glad I could help.

@herb_fargus I know, but it also messed up my arcade cabinet binds, and gave me problems binding control in mame (wouldn't take binds). How do I just update retropie and not emulators and do I have to update kernal?
