      I don't understand why you think there should be an Emulationstation folder in you $HOME after you install the package through the RetroPie-Setup - the installation folders for all packages are in /opt/retropie. After installation, you should be able to start Emulationstation using the RetroPie shortcut (.desktop) file added by the installer.

      @mitu said in How does one make a script module for an emulator / branch: @HoJo215 said in How does one make a script module for an emulator / branch: DRI3 was the problem. Isn't this a runtime settings for your X.org configuration ? Actually I think it's part of the graphics or at least shader profile being used in mesa. I have padoka's bleeding edge repository in use.. Otherwise known as unstable. So things can go awry.. Like they did until I took a gander at the Makefile, saw some unused options, put 1 + 1 together and made some edits.. It worked a out beautifully. Especially on the Flycast-Wince emu with the same Makefile edits. I'm playing Sega Rally 2 on 2x internal resolution, 2x br and a 4x pass xbr shaders without one hiccup. Keep in mind this my first run with retropie x86. I decided to make small form factor emu box a month or so ago and gripped up a coffee lake NUC to guinea pig with. So everything is trial & error as I run with it.

      To reply to my own post with more info...I believe this to be a bug with the Mednafen core and/or Retroarch. Possibly moreso Retroarch Using the Vulkan renderer worked great for a while then all the sudden mid game my battle swirl went away and all i get now is a black screen with this as well. Same with the GL renderer as mentioned before if this is what you're reading. I replicated the same scenario with another device as well... The swirls work fine initially then stopped working entirely for some unknown cause however i was reading this issue which had a very valid workaround: Github-beetle If on both OpenGL and Vulkan you want your battle swirlies and they just stopped working start the game, toggle ANY option on and off in Retroarch then resume the game and everything is fine. I cant believe i had not even tried that even by accident... Edit: I ended up recording a video of this along with what actually works as a fix. Keep in mind there are NO core overrides and this is with stock retroarch settings which use OpenGL.

      Thanks for the reply. Removing the line autospawn=no enabled PulseAudio again if I'm not mistaking. Already tried the 3rd answer on that thread with no luck.

      @dox1842 I'm glad it's working and the resolution is expected behavior, but keep in mind that this only fixes the singular hotkey issue. While that's a positive for now, as long as you have 'save on exit' enabled and you continue to change your settings further, each system will have different configuration settings and problems like the one you just solved will begin to surface in other areas.

      @willindiana You can edit retroarch.cfg and set the driver. May I suggest you try also the lr-beetle-psx core ? It has Vulkan support and since you're on x86 it can be installed from the optional packages section.

      @xadox said in Different Shader Versions: Is RetroPie using special optimized shaders for the pi? it uses a curated subset of the shaders that have been shown to work well or work at all. many shaders in the libretro repo will crash or not work right.

      To be a bit more clear: when selecting a non-working preset retroarch just dumps me back to the filter selection screen without making any changes.

      @herman27d said in Bartop - Donkey Kong themed: @edmaul69 I bought a wood kit and it came with a 1 player panel and also a 2 player panel. ...didn’t think I would have 2 people playing it at one time very much so went with the single player option. ...it’s only a 19” monitor so not super huge I did the same thing, but for different reason: my button layout uses 12 buttons and 0 joystick. For second player, I put an USB controller.

      Sorry for the lengthy delay in replying... IRL got in the way :-) OK so it's definitely only the navigation sounds missing. I've tried several themes and none seem to have sound. I'm guessing they must not be supported in Ubuntu as i don't seem to have them in the Sound Settings menu item. Oh well :-)

      Yes, I can see that I have to run most of the games I try at low settings. Not so worried about that, and the Dreamcast and Saturn emulators still have a ton of issues. However, I still want to try. Wish I could figure the exit issues out...... Kinda figured that would be the easy one....
