@mitu I'll go to the Streets of Rage Remake and the BennuGD forum and ask if they can help sort this out. I might have to write to the developers in Spanish at BennuGD, but I'm thinking that it might give them a heads up on what's going on with the SorRMaker.dat file. Thanks for letting me know about what goes on when the core is created and your response on this issue. I'll keep you posted if any of them gives some feedback.

@phillip_benoit I've been doing PRs to a respectable number of open source projects for a few years now, and from all of them, only one of the projects has consistently reviewed my PRs in under 3 weeks. If the project is popular and is handled by few people, you should be accustomed for them to take several months to look at your PR.
I would rate RetroPie as one of the most decent projects I've contributed to, in terms of pull requests accepted and time taken to evaluate them, especially considering the small number of people working on it.
My point is: you can change projects, but it's no guarantee that you won't be ignored on the other side as well. "Occupational hazards" I guess.

@mitu it seems that in Debian (LXQT) this issue is not present. I think i'll just switch to it. I assume that this bug is related to the GNOME desktop environment

@mitu Seems so. Thanks for your suggestion.

I think it's a temporary error (website or internet connection), it works fine on my (PC) install. Re-try the installation later on.

@BuZz said in I have to know - Imy upgrade procedure it's ok ? It's present some errors inside the LOG ?:

@DjDiabolik it's normal. They are built in packages (the code they install is part of RetroPie-Setup) and always update to ensure the latest runcommand, joy2key etc is installed. It's just how it works

OOOOKKK........ now i have a lot of knowledge about that :)
but in fact, the NOT presence of errors in the log it's peacefull.

How i already say... have to know :) And now i know :)

Thanks for info :)

@mitu I guess It is your prerogative. No worries at all. It is the learning process which is the most interesting part, and giving back to the community with no interest in profiting at all.

@mitu
Thanks a lot for the great advice! This can be closed now.

@windg Thanks. This should be fixed now.

@mitu I DO NOT KNOW how to THANK YOU!
I know wife and i had made this image together for 2 years
and in a blink i messed it up i was so afraid to tell her lol
I can't believe it is back loading!

took your advice and went with the newer extras
I truly want to thank you kindly for your time
now i can back this up and have a deep breath lol

@mitu thanks. I will try that and see

I added this facility to RetroPie. Users can choose to suppress a few non-essential prompts (update & install prompts, fetched latest script & the notice screen) by setting the IAMSURE environment variable. Other screens, including removal & uninstallation prompts are still presented.

Please merge the PR.

@Skynet85 Hello,

Are you using lr-pcsx-rearmed? I recently submitted some updates to that emulator.

Previously, the GunCon trigger, A, and B buttons were hard coded to the mouse’s left, right, and middle buttons. I switched it so that those are instead mappable via Libretro’s Gun Trigger, Gun Aux A, and Gun Aux B. I also added the Gun Reload input for button-activated offscreen shots.

Does your Wii remote rearrange the button configuration when a nunchuck is attached? You can go into the RetroArch menu and remap buttons if so and if you’re using the latest version of that emulator.

Lr-duckstation should already operate the way I described above, perhaps without the Gun Reload feature (I never tried it).

And if you’re using neither of those emulators, then I don’t know. Someone else will have to help you 😀

@BuZz OK.I've tried to dynamically change the DNS server to visit github.com and successfully installed retropie on Ubuntu(amd64).Maybe I just need to post a solution on local forums to instruct others.

@mitu This is just what I was looking for. I performed an update within retropie config and got the same result. couldn't access any setup menu. copying the ROMs and Bios over, but a couple of BIN files wouldn't copy (admin permission required). I guess after I reflash the SD card, this won't be a problem putting all my ROMs back?

@nickelino-0 said in lr-tyrquake:

Have a merry christmas & an awesome new year

Thank you, merry Christmas to you too.

@mitu I apologize for my lack of knowledge on this one. This must have happened when I loaded and compiled the MESS group of emulators, or when I added the Singe extension to Daphne.

At least now I know what's been causing me all the headaches. I didn't know there would be a difference in the two. The goal was to get as many emus working on my system...but obviously that created a small snafu I wasn't aware of.

So fixing this... I'll go through the RetroPie Setup repository and hopefully get back on track.

Thanks again for your help. Wow... I guess I really need to be more careful when I play around with all these fantastic emulators.

UPDATE: all is working great. I'm on the right repository, DosBox-Staging 77.1 is loaded and all is good. This can be closed.
