@uberlumby said in Retro pie script update failure:

@retropieuser555 good tip I'm just trying to update emulation station I did it manually no big deal I'll reset once retroarch 1.9.0 gets supported officially.

Why did you get 1.9.0 same reason? I got it because retro achievements popping up would freeze on 1.8.8

I was trying to fix a problem I found recently where lots of lr-mupen64plus-next games have various achievements listed as "unsupported". Thought it might be due to using the older retroarch, but unfortunately it didn't fix it.

@clyde said in Updating 4.6.x to 4.7.1:

My 4.6 installation became 4.7 just by the normal update process

And as I just checked, it's 4.7.1 now. So yes, it went all the way from 4.6 to 4.7.1. 🙂

@etheling said in Update retroarch.sh to enable KMS/DRM on x11 platform?:

Other than patching files under RetroPie-Setup, is there some way to achieve this that I didn't realize?

No, you need to patch the scriptmodule to have both vulkan and KMS support.

You could rename the folder /opt/retropie/emulators/ppssppto something else and then modify the /opt/retropie/configs/psp/emulators.cfg and make a new entry for your copy. Retropie will ignore it then and won't touch it.

@mitu said in RetroPie Setup no Longer Working After Failed Update.:

The error message is quite clear - have you tried running the commands recommended ?

I honestly didn't even notice that until after you pointed it out lmao. Thank you, it worked!

Unfortunately no success, I had already disabled the hybrid filter, and lowering the resolution even to 720x480 had no positive effect.

Any sensible addition to the documentation is welcome.

@VictimRLSH Thanks. Then at least it matches my experiences.

Are you using a 4k TV ? Try forcing an 1080p resolution - use raspi-config to set it.

@mitu thanks for reply. The original fresh install was years ago. From memory I followed the instructions from an ETAPRIME YouTube video

@mitu Thanks!

Everything working good now! :D

@dankcushions said in Pi4 upgrade question:

you should be able to just update as usual - https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Updating-RetroPie

as always, take a backup first.

Thank you. I'll give it a go.

Thanks !
I try for the last 4 days :(
Do you know if its possible to try to do the clone of the ffmpeg first ? its seems that's the module with the problem

@fullauto2009 An upgrade in place is not recommended, as it's not supported even by Raspbian. Note that attractmode is not compatible yet with the Pi4.

In the end everything is working fine ... thanks.

thank you again.

@JL-2600 UPDATE: I ending up trying to update to 4.6 again, but this time it updated only RetroPie and nothing else. Everything seems to be working just fine this time!

When I originally tried the update a few days ago, it also updated the emulators, so perhaps it was one of those emulator updates that was causing the problem.

Thanks!

you know what i did. i just did a fresh install - retropie 4.6 image. thanks for all the info and help, but a fresh install isnt that hard, it takes a couple of hours and then everything is working fine. also, the time and effort needed to upgrade the whole lot with all side complications possible - and having to resolve them -, that would perhaps take longer than just simply imaging the whole sd card to a disk image (.img) then flash it with retropie 4.6 and then mount the .img and return the whole lot to its folders.

@InfinityBeing I think your posts are unrelated to this topic. Please don't post here - you already have your own topic.
Sorry for the noise on the topic @BuZz, @magicfly.
