      @A-Bored-Ninja feel free to swap out the binary. Takes about 20 seconds. Link is in the original post.

          @quicksilver did you have to do anything outside of installing it from the experimental packages list to get it running? I can't get drastic to boot games unfortunately.

              For anyone who want to try the 2.5.0.4 version on his/her pi this is a step by step guide.

              SSH/Putty to your Pi or plug a keyboard and press F4 to get local command prompt.

              cd /opt/retropie/emulators
              sudo mv drastic drastic.old
              sudo wget https://github.com/Retro-Arena/binaries/raw/master/odroid-xu4/drastic.tar.gz
              sudo tar -xvf drastic.tar.gz
              ls -lah (validate file/folders are in place, just make sure you see folder called "drastic")
              sudo reboot

              The latest release for retropie was 2.5.0.3. With the new update 2.5.0.4 seems to bypass the microphone problem.

              All credits going to Virtualman.

                  @soulfunkdjx Can you do this with the old version already installed?

                      Thank you very much for this, everything worked, but to load into the emulator I have to go through file manager and not through retropie, is there any solution for this ??

                        Yes its still in progress, its decided that the open source fork will be a Retroarch core so that users on multiple systems and not just phones can play it. Wed Jan 13, 2021 4:20 am

                        This is awesome !!
