      Oh, there was a weird report on our discord saying that retropie only had .44 available some time ago (i told the guy to write a report here), so the issue was only about the build script description being outdated ?

      PS : between new supported games and redumps, there should be around 2 dozens of romsets that changed since 1.0.0.0

      Tested with symbolic links as discussed by Parabolaralus here, seemed easier, and for anyone running my specs they should have no issue running gamecube games. Runs flawlessly so far.

      @mitu Thanks to another thread of yours I have found the solution.
      https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/17492/retropie-4-4-and-tronsmart-mars-g02-with-wireless-dongle-problem

      The issue was that the controller by default comes recognized as a X mode (Xbox), I had to change it to D-mode (Android) by pressing 5 seconds the button home. After that joydev inmediately recognized it as Sharwan model.

      Once again, thaks a lot for your help.

      Thank you for the reply. Before I saw you replied I tried reinstalling the drivers using the method you so happened to post in the thread I linked at the top. That worked for me. I will say I installed drivers 340 instead of 440 so that could of been my issue.

      For anyone that runs into this problem in the future here is a guide to install Nvidia drivers the way mitu recommended in this thread.

      One reason the roms don't show up could be the Option "Parse Gamelists Only" in Emulation Station's Main Menu -> Other Settings (Screenshot). It should be set to OFF to see every zip file in the rom directories in Emulation station. If they will run, however, depends on the correct rom/emulator combination, see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Arcade/.

      I think I found the solution.
      In mupen64plus.cfg you can find the overscan options.
      Need some fiddling around with it but probably this is what I was searching for.

      Though I don't know why the standard resolution (640x480) doesn't need overscan and higher resolutions need this to be able to fill the whole screen. Any one know why?

      Quick update.
      Changing line 447 in /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus/bin/mupen64plus.sh fixed my problem. I have changed pulse to alsa.

      Further more I've created a simple script, named n64audio to run at start/boot.
      In this script:

      #!/bin/sh sed -i 's/pulse/alsa/g' /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus/bin/mupen64plus.sh

      Made the script executable sudo chmod +x n64audio
      After that sudo crontab -e
      And added the line @reboot /home/retropie/n64audio

      Now after every reboot pulse will be changed to alsa in the file /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus/bin/mupen64plus.sh , if the line pulse exists.

      So if I update RetroPie and mupen64plus gets updated and overwrites my file (and put pulse back in to play) it will be overwritten on the next reboot.

      Again, thanks for all your help!

      @Zore I don't see any errors in the log file. Can you also post the contents of ~/.emulationstation/es_input.cfg ? Check the permissions on that file also, if your user is able to write to it.
