@maskedsquirrels said in Multitap works for some games but not for others, Secret of Mana, Looney Tunes B-Ball:

Ok back to the original problem. The SOM version I have is Secret of Mana (USA) [En by FuSoYa v1.0] (Variable Width Font Edition).sfc according to the file name.

It still links player 2 and 3 together.

It is likely that this hack change something in the headers of the rom, resulting in snes9x not recognizing the rom and not applying the right settings to enable multitap. You should try with an official usa or pal rom to make sure.

I have just pushed an update for the ControlBlock driver. You can now connect a button to P2, "A": Pressing that button will lead to a simulated press of Start + B, as well as a keyboard button press of "F1".

Does this work for you?

@dankcushions This particular log was collected while only running at the title screen. It doesn't look like the video stutters but the audio skips for sure. Not sure if that helps.

@safesinger gamelist file is at /home/pi/.emulationstation/gamelists/<platform>/gamelist.xml or /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/<platform>/gamelist.xml.

Glad to hear that you found the problem.

Just a last report. So, I have installed my new case and the temperature difference is like day and night, dropping around 30° Celcius (from 80° to 50°, but just a small test, it will heat up a little more, but you get the idea)! Its one huge heatsink (whole case is one big heatsink) and no extra boards installed. I am just happy, plus the right emulator and no over heating issues and no fan noise! Still not really well tested, but I can see clearly the benefit.

Just someone is interested in it too, its very inexpensive also. My new case is: BIQU Aluminium Raspberry Pi Modell B for 11 Euros in Germany.

I guess I finally hook it back up to my TV downstairs and play something!!!!

Not so fast. There's some paperwork you need to fill out in triplicate first.

I seriously laughed at this.

@andrehen Glad it works now and thank you too for the final answer, telling us whats going on.

@DingoSlayer44 did you ever find a solution to this? I have exactly the same issue.

Thanks a lot for that!
I have just announces it in a tweet, see https://twitter.com/petrockblog/status/1000702534674198533 :-)

Thanks i'll check it out

@fabio78 Yep, I was just doing it earlier with the lb-snes9x core. It starts out at the default 10 but wasn't the original hardware slightly faster? Anyway, it bumps up by units of 10 after that. 20 worked really nicely. Overclocking the Pi itself seems optional, but it would get you back to a perfect 60fps or close to it.

@dankcushions said in SNES Retroarch config confusion:

@baviaannl no, it should still look like the example @mitu posted above.

/all/retroarch.cfg is always loaded - it is the 'global retroarch.cfg' file referred to in the example.

This is beginning to make a lot of sense, thanks for your help.

@nathiel in the RetroPie Setup click on the tools option and select the EmulationStation line. The first option in the next menu is clear controller configs. After reboot you will be prompted to configure your controllers again. Unless you have a very specific custom config setup this will be the easiest way to start fresh.

i have the same problem with the same keyboard

for the current buttons, you can create bindings with udev (hwdb) but the triggers are not recognized

if somebody could help us, thanx
