new scriptmodules (lr-vice-xvic, gsplus, proper lr-mess integration!)

Hello
my Pi is in an Acorn Electron keyboard and consequently does not have a scroll-lock.
Is that key hard-coded or is there a way for me to remap it elsewhere? Is there an .rc or other file I can configure?
TIA!

Hi,
Seems you can do this :

@valerino Just catching up on this after seeing it a few months ago... So this is now available to install within RetroPie, in the RPi-Setup menu? What is it called there?

To install things, you have to use the branch from @valerino, look at the first post.
Read this post thoroughly and look at the NOTES !
Click the link in the first post and read the readme on Github on how to install.Edit :
My advice : install lr-mess from the binary (if you don't have a specific reason to use the source one). -
@valerino Running into problems with the script, ive installed the MESS emulator several times and all was working fine, then I tried to do a clean install on a freshly downloaded version of Retropie &followed the steps from your read me file.
I've been trying to get it working for the last week and all I get is the same error, any help would be appreciated.here is a copy of the log where it stops doing its thing

thank you

Why don't you install the binary version ?
-
@folly I'll give it a go, I'll let you know if I run into any problems.

I am now building it to see if I get the error.
But this can take up to 4 hours.Last month it compiled fine.
But I always notice that the pi gets really hot while compiling.
You have to make sure it will stay cool.For me there was only 1 reason to compile.
There is an update on the P2000T which will then support cas files.What is your reason to compile it ?

Well that was a lot easier and works, cheers @Folly, that will save me loads of time if I have to do it again

wanting to have a play around with bbc, electron & Phillips cdi.
it used to compile fine for me up until a week or so ago, then I started to get the 'couldn't find mess_libretro.so " error.
I always built it from source, just followed @valerino instructions. -

Mine crashed now while compiling.
So, I stop for now.
Perhaps some another time. -

Perhaps some another time.was it about 1hr into the install? thats what ive narrowed it down to, tried it on ssd, usb and sd.
Anyway thanks for your help @Folly , at least if its a bug or something has changed @valerino can maybe have a look into it -

But the last few days my pi4 gets stuck more often, I just installed a cooler.
Hope it get's better.I looked at both branches but Valerino didn't edit this file.
It's the same as from the original RetroPie-setup.
Perhaps it's best to try it again in a few weeks.
Maybe it's an issue in lr-mess. -
I just had a look through this thread and I couldn't find any reference to this, but has anyone gotten lr-mess-vectrex up and running with overlays yet? Thinking about going down that rabbit hole but wondering if there has been anyone who has done it yet before I attempt it?

Yes, that works !
You can use the same methode as used with lr-vecx.I have some background information about that in my repository :
https://github.com/FollyMaddy/RetroPie-Share/tree/main/00-scripts-00#run-with-a-backgroundoverlay-picture-for-handheld-or-vextrex-with-retroarch-in-lr-messSo if you already have the overlays working, they should also work with lr-mess.
For handhelds I made a script that will generate these configs :
https://github.com/FollyMaddy/RetroPie-Share/blob/main/00-scripts-00/generate-overlay-configs.sh
The goal is to add vectrex also sometime.btw,
Speech synthesis works with lr-mess, with lr-vecx this is an issue.
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/29077/vectrex-speech-synthesis -
@folly Thank you! I'll look through that!
-
@roslof @Folly Where did you guys get the overlays and artwork for Microvision? I was able to get the console up and running but my Googlefu is failing me on finding the artwork. I have the stuff from the MVEM site, but I can't get those artwork files to work with MESS.
Also, thank you for the notes above. That was all fantastic and I was able to get the console up and running with little hassle thanks to your advice. The only thing I can't find is the artwork.

and https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sm6gdOcaaQaNUtQ9tZ5Q5WQ6m1OD2QY3
Everything excepted Microvision for handheld artworks
Another way to run Vectrex with MAME standalone (like MESS without Lr)
go in /opt/retropie/configs/vectrex
open your emulators.cfg or create Itadd:
mame-vectrex= "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -c vectrex -cart %ROM%" mame-vectrex-autoframeskip= "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -c -autoframeskip vectrex -cart %ROM%"**
To set your "Input (general)" and "Input(this Machine), follow step 10 and 11 of this Tutorial -----> Tutorial: Handheld and Plug & Play systems with MAME
In your /opt/retropie/configs/mame/mame.ini
set the location where you will store the artworks
artpath /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame/artwork;/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/artwork;/home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS/mame/artwork
