@svera said in My modified ROM loading process (launch images, bezel overlays, pause): Hi @johnodon, great job! Unfortunately, I did find an issue when using your script, it seems that while using it we're unable to use retropie launch game menu (the one that shows when pressing a key just before game loads). It shows but I'm unable to control it. I'm using a Rpi 3b+ FYI. I'll look into that but personally I turn off the runcommand menu as I have no use for it. I define per-game emulators in /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulators.cfg. John

@andrewsi starting it from gdb inside a ssh session could work to have text mode, unless you tried that. But could be it wont break on correct location either then. Not used gdb that much for such problems

no, there are still some bugs concerning 1.7.7. on the pi. AFAIR Retropie itself will be updated to 4.5 as soon as retroarch 1.7.7. is stable on the Pi.

@mitu , thanks mate, exactly what I was looking for.

@kelvinnkat said in Does anyone have a version 3.6 RPi 3 image?: why aren't old images on github? When Cortés reached the new world, he burned his ships to inspire confidence in his men to move forward. With RetroPie however, I imagine it's simply a matter of practicality. Supporting the latest greatest release already takes a village. Supporting all the outdated images that have come and gone would be a pretty big burden. Personally, I don't see that 4.x is any less "plug and play" than 3.6. What are some examples that you've noticed?

@pjft i scraped all my things months ago and everything was working perfectly until i updated from 2 months worth of updates... I used screenscraper but that shouldnt matter, like i mentioned earlier, Everything was working correctly.

@moosepr said in Chopped up a table...: @danorak1981 this is super kool! Love the foam, makes it really professional looking! Do I see car tailgate struts? Thanks! The foam is great stuff: www.shadowfoam.com: it's so ruddy addictive. I built my own computer desk and used Shadowfoam inside the drawer to keep it tidy, see here. The struts are actually kitchen cabinet struts for lift up cupboard doors, but you can buy them fairly inexpensively on eBay, but they are essentially the same thing, just much smaller! Made it feel a little more polished, plus it means I can leave the lid open and leave the keyboard there so it doesn't move when I'm doing some casual Amiga gaming.

@dankcushions I can certainly recommend the kit, I was looking for something that I did not need to paint, the formica certainly gives a good finish. There is a slight rough edge where the control panel meets the screen. The design has an angled cut here and the formica chips out slightly. I will try and find a plastic trim piece for it. It is not a major complaint. I am not sure if the other similar kits have the same problem This was the cheapest formica faced kit available. Riches bartops dropped their price after I had ordered, but his is still £30 more expensive when courier costs are taken into account.

Installed version 4.1 and all seems good so far. Thanks for looking, Sam

@meleu that did the job. Thanks

Maybe the stock Super Nintendo controller ports.

@AndersHP said in lag lag lag, I hate it, just ran a lag test and am disappointed with RPi/retropie: @pjft said in lag lag lag, I hate it, just ran a lag test and am disappointed with RPi/retropie: @rig I believe all of them can be changed in the RetroArch menu. You do need to save them for turn to be applied when you restart RetroPie, so depending on your setup you may want to go straight to the config files for that after you're happy with the results. Does this mean that they wont be applied unless you save and restart? Or do they apply instantly but get reset if not saved? Sorry if it's a stupid question. I believe that the changes are applied immediately but as soon as you exit the game/retroarch you lose the changes unless you save them. You can verify this by making changes, exiting the menu and the reentering the menu and checking to see if your changes are still there.

@vbs they were the same before. We flattened the RPI structure so shader previous/next hotkeys worked as they don't work with subfolders

BuZz said in Selling Projects: most of the sellers are selling with the image as the main selling point RetroPie! Kodi! Fully loaded! Each order is also guaranteed to contain a 1989 Upper Deck Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card if you order right now! Edit: The "Fully Loaded" thing gets me every time. One of my friends was saying that he bought a Kodi device on eBay. I made mention that any of the machines require a bit of upkeep to remain fully operational over time and he quickly responded with, "No, I bought mine fully loaded". Funny stuff.

No, not currently something that is supported.

The config.txt is located in the Boot folder, you can edit this via ftp or by putting the SD card into your PC. I had an issue with locking up as well when trying to overclock my rpi3b with the recommended overclock settings I've seen on several sites. I ended up just reverting to default. it's always a good idea to make a backup of your config.txt before editing just in case something like this happens. hope this helps.

@Toast I use this and am very happy with it. The problem with RetrOSMC is that it tries to shoehorn the two projects together into one. This can potentially lead to all kinds of incompatibilities and makes troubleshooting either project much more difficult. The multi-boot solution is functionally identical, but the two projects are isolated to their own partitions and always run as they should in their own space. When you're in OSMC, you get an addon you can select that will launch RetroPie and when you're in RetroPie, you get a menu listing in Emulation Station that will launch OSMC. Once installed, you can simply update both projects to their latest versions.
