The archive site doesn't automatically archives everything, though undoubtedly somewhere there's a backup of the Citra source code and probably also of their dependencies.

@mitu said in Raspberry pi screen not working:

hdmi_cvt=800 480 60 6 0 0 0

Wow! Now it's working great! Thanks.

I had tried all other options except

hdmi_cvt=800 480 60 6 0 0

@skankieflank You can install it like any other emulator, though we don't have the latest version (yet) added.

@bur There's no reason this shouldn't be possible - I saw Drastic DS emulator on Android has dual screen support - so at least on Android it's possible with Raspberry Pi. I'm waiting on a HDMI 3.5 inch screen so I can test it with my 5inch Waveshare screen, and I'll report back if I have any success.
As for doing it in Raspbian, I sure hope that would work but no idea at this point.

@martinfr said in RPi 1 Model B only reports 256MB RAM under RetroPie:

To my surprise, the OS only reports 256MB of memory (checked through ssh).
Is that expected? If not, how can I tell it to use the full 512MB?

I think so - the rest of the memory may be reserved for the GPU, since it's used by both the front-end (EmulationStation) and the emulators.

how do i add game overlays? i have the images but whats the steps? thanks for any help

@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 Supporting all the outdated images that have come and gone would be a pretty big burden.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.

Man this is so awesome! I love it, nice work.

I've never heard of shadow foam before, but will check it out. I attempted something similar a while back with my Switch using this packaging foam and a scalpel. Had a smart flight case for it to sit inside as well.

The cut out I made wasn't as clean as I had hoped tbh, it was functional, but not smart enough for my liking.

Maybe it's something I'll revisit in the future using this stuff.

@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.

@ortsac https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/36657/hide-complete-boot-message-from-rpi-booting?rq=1

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.

@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.
