Use the Core input remapping options in RetroArch to re-map your button.

@greenhawk84 It could be a bad dump or just a different version of the game, in example regional difference. The patch just requires a specific version of that rom, otherwise it can't patch it correctly.

@mitu

Thanks man!

@mitu said in How do I change NES color palette?:

Can I do that for SNES also?

I don't think that for SNES emulators such a think exists. What are you actually interested in ?

Make the colors more like the real Snes. But maybe I´ll just use a CRT filter of some sort instead :)

@thedatacereal not sure how to do your suggestion. :(

Update: GOT IT! Yea, win!

@mitu thanks a lot for help, but dont work last version in windows xp, try test it later in my pc home with windows 7

This is just my two cents, but I've not had good luck with 3.0 cables. Sometimes the controller wouldn't be recognized. I ended up stuffing them in a drawer and getting some 2.0 cables. They were the cheapest 3.0 cables on Amazon, so higher quality cables might work fine.

I eventually got some 8bitdo wireless controllers. They can sometimes be a headache, dealing with bluetooth issues. But the tangled up extension cables were a bigger constant headache.

@mitu I had the same issue! I also noticed somehow all the files inside the /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch directory was missing, so I forced the updated in the core packages configuration menu inside the Retropie Setup screen. (Manage packages -> core -> retroarch -> Update from binary)

I suggest a SNES style controller. It will easily handle both NES and SNES games. Three button Genesis/Mega Drive games also work fine. Six button Genesis games are a bit awkward, though.

My personal favorites are the Retrolink Dual link Capcom SNES controllers, the buffalo SNES clones, and the PS4 Hori Fighting commanders. The Hori is especially nice because of the six button layout and quality d pad, but they are more expensive. Be wary of the buffalo controllers as they are very nice, but they have ghost input issues (all three buffalos I own have that problem).

I do not like the 8bitdo wireless options personally. I have found them to be quite overpriced for what they do. They also have a significant problem with signal interference in my abode, but I have something like two dozen wireless devices running in the same apartment with 4 radios running at legal maximum signal. Your experience may vary.

Controllers for larger hands include the Hori Pokken controller, which is excellent but bulky. The xbox one controller honestly works pretty well and has a good pad, but it's large. The PS4 controller is expensive, but might be a good wireless option for small hands (I like the ps4 controller, but my wife has spider fingers so she likes the xbox).

Do not by the super cheap multi controller packs from Amazon. You would be better off playing Ninja Gaiden with a keyboard than using those things.

@mikepd213 Re-install all your packages, do an update, then try again. You probably messed up the permissions (executable bit) on your files.

@m2306 You bought that controlblock so I'm not sure how you can overclock properly. Should've bought a zero delay usb encoder, connect your joystick to that so then you can buy a flirc case or a heatsink+fan combo.

Do you need to overclock? No. Should you, if you had the ability to? Oh YES. Snes requires all the power it can get. The latest snes emulator, lr-snes9x, requires even more. If you want bleeding edge snes emulation the pi can handle, then you have to use that one. It's actively supported so any bugs will get worked on faster than the rest. MSU-1 support as well. As an example: I still get slowdowns on kirby3 at 1.5ghz. There's also a setting to speed things up to fix the original emulation slowdowns. So games like super r-type don't get slowdowns anymore.

Arcade games need it too. It's such a hassle testing each game to see which one runs the fastest and with proper emulation. In a perfect world, if the pi could run the latest mame, then one arcade emulator would be so awesome. As it is now, I have to juggle between four arcade emulators, other people even more. A faster speed would help the situation a bit. I'm still slowly moving games from mame2003 to fba and I need to re-test the 4player konami games again to see if I still get slowdowns, so I can eliminate using fba2012.

I forgot about lower end emulators like nes and genesis. They can also benefit by having the ability to enable the run-ahead setting to shave off a few frames of input lag. That feature requires tons of power too.

I would've gone with something more powerful like an odroid xu4, but the level of support will always make me stick with pi's....that and I have no idea if my original snes pad driver will work on the odroid. I would want a silent cooling solution and I heard the giant heatsink version doesn't cool properly.

mame4all is not a libretro emulator. it doesn't use the config files you are editing. details on what it does use are here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/MAME#mame4all-pi

@mark1986 would you mind elaborating on how you did this? I have my games booting from USB, and want my saves to go to my USB as well so I can take it out and put it in my handheld and resume save state

I'd probably rewrite it like

#!/usr/bin/env bash ROMDIR=/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/snes MSUROMDIR=/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/msu rom=$1 if [[ $rom == *"act2_msu1.sfc" ]]; then rom="${MSUROMDIR}/Act Raiser 2 MSU v1 Kurrono, Conn 2018-03-25/act2_msu1.sfc" fi if [[ $rom =~ *"actraiser_msu1.sfc" ]]; then rom="${MSUROMDIR}/Actraiser - Abyss Rebirth OST, MSU v1 Darkshock/actraiser_msu1.sfc" fi # and all other roms... /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ snes "$rom"

@thelostsoul Yup DKC2 was the best one, I really love the pirate theme. The game is still epic, especially that cart level in the 4th world of DKC2. Thank God for savestates lol. I literally sweat from my ass when I play that level. DKC2 also had the best music out of the 3 DKC titles. These are one of the best music I've ever heard in a game:

@panamanian I think you need to get the 8Bitdo Wireless USB Adapter

Please someone correct me if I'm wrong?

Edit: No. I was wrong.
Controller Compatibility
8Bitdo controllers and arcade sticks (excluding 2.4G controllers)

That's to bad. Wish they would release a USB Adapter for the 2.4ghz models.

@downup

The closest thing is setting all_users_control_menu = "true". However, this would obviously mean that all users would be able to control the menu and not just player three. However, you could unbind the controller mappings for all RetroArch functions and map them solely as keyboard keys. Then players one and two wouldn't have access from the controllers, but anyone using a keyboard would.
