      Slide over to the thread titled :

      https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/29682/development-of-module-script-generator-for-lr-mess-and-mame-standalone/857?_=1636331293305

      Folly has been working the hell out of the Libretro MESS/MAME core addition to Retropie and just recently dteam and I have been helping him test and tweak the Tandy Coco 1/2/3 setup to be a one-click game play. Setting up the controls hasn't been covered just yet, but we're getting there.

      Read the last few posts and see if it interests you. Our goal has been to get MESS involved more as a goto for all the other computer and hand-held games. So they can be used in Retropie...again... one click to it goes right to the program and auto-loads without any user input (or as little as possible)

      This is the Tandy Coco3 running in lr-mess with a backgorund I reworked from another artist adding in the proper Tandy screen and other stuff. You can see it's working good. Just haven't gotten the retropad control to work just yet as I haven't been focused on that aspect.

      Malevolus

      I made some progress and figured I would share some updates in the event that anyone runs into this issue. I found a Youtube tutorial to utilize Xroar for Coco Emulation on the PC. I had no installed the disk11.rom or the extbas11.rom. Based on the Retropie doc file, only the bas13.rom is mentioned so it might be worth a minor update.

      Here is the Youtube video for reference if anyone would like.

      I also ran into some issues with everything being in black and white but with some searching Ctrl-A resolved the issue.

      Hopefully this helps someone down the road if they run into this.

      Please add some information about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

      What particular keyboard shortcut are you trying out and it's not working ?

      @K9Kraken said in GPI Case XRoar emulator crashes. (Solved):

      -Way to exit emulator without having to reboot the system.

      I wonder if this is because of --disable-kbd-translate. Do you have a game to compare how slow the new version (compared to the previous one) runs ?

      This helped and I believe solved the problem once I tweaked my config options. Thanks so much.

      @steve-bamford yes, sorry my response was a bit quick! I must have skimmed over your question. It's good to see others using xroar. I use it to play the 5 games I had on the Tandy 30-odd years ago.

      @steve-bamford Not a problem. xroar is a "niche" emulator at best. We gotta stick together. Enjoy. Get yourself a full game ROM set and go crazy!

      @stoogesfan87 here are some steps to get the job done:

      Copy the PNG to a directory accessible to the pi user (like ~/RetroPie/ROMs/coco/media/images/ From ES, highlight the folder that you wish to display the image Hit your "Select" button Select "Edit this game's metadata" Select "Image" Type the path where the image is Restart EmulationStation

      For number 6, I can't remember if you can use relative paths or even the tilde (~) so probably best to use the full path. So for step 1 above, the path would be:

      /home/pi/RetroPie/ROMs/coco/media/images/<your_image>.png
