New 4.1.20 RetroPie images for testing
-
@Rascas said in New 4.1.20 RetroPie images for testing:
@BuZz Not in the repos (packaged), only if you are using rpi-update ;) And using rpi-update is generally considered unstable. But that shouldn't be a problem, although I didn't test it with emulators. I just wanted to know if you did this to include/fix some gamepad driver or something like it. And thanks for your work :D
The image is built based on the last Raspbian Lite image, so I may have just imagined being on 4.9 on another system I was testing. My bad - certainly no rpi-update is run anyway.
[edit] unless the last raspbian lite has an unpackaged newer kernel - which could be possible since they pushed out a quick zero w fix
[edit] nope, it's just my memory - images are definitely 4.4.50 as has been mentioned. will edit first post.

Downloaded the new image, went to install the Virtualboy emulator.... but can't seem to find it anywhere.

@BuZz said in New 4.1.20 RetroPie images for testing:
Ability to set custom ES themes in configs/all/platforms.cfg (can any setting in RetroPie-Setup/platforms.cfg).
What does this mean? I must have missed this development.

@AlexMurphy Yea I actually tend to agree.. but I wasn't aware that ES was being worked on again. Who can we talk to about getting the kiosk/child mode fork merged in with the newest? I really rely on that more than anything but it has the issue with subfolders still which is a killer.
-
Also thank you @BuZz and others for keeping RetroPie going great! Just sent a donation. I have started an arcade cabinet side job on etsy and I've customized retro pi for it, so I will be making a donation for each unit I sell. Keep up the good work (and please find someone to get kiosk mode into the core ES :P)

Good job !!!
But i tried to connect to my pi Zero W in SSH with Putty and he say "my network connection isn't established."
I can download update, my wifi connection is correct, ping also, samba work arlready, ...
No problem with other devices (PI2 and PI3) -
@figolu31 did you read my post? I detail SSH.
Please do not post on this thread for help - this is a thread for testing before release. If you need help you should not be using this image.

Where did you look?
I'm primarily after testing feedback rather than this being a support thread. If you are saying it's missing, I'll take a look.
-
@figolu31 Its missing. I looked in all the different packages sections (main, experimental etc)
Can't find it at all.
Also: Excuse my noobness etc - downloaded/installed this image but my version says 4.1.19. Is that normal?

It's under optional packages as lr-beetle-vb for rpi2/rpi3 users (not available for rpi1/zero - I've just changed the code so it is, but it probably won't be playable on an armv6 based device).

You can ignore that, it's just because I didn't commit the version bump before I started building.

Friend could you add a favorites system to the official standard emulationsystion? I really want to see my favorite games at the top with not having the extra ES kids and kiosk features plus the mode switcher
-
thank you Buzz and everyone, i'm very pleased to see Attract-Mode still being supported, thanks

@sergioad this is not the place for feature requests. There are already threads regarding favourites

@BuZz ok, did you saw my new wiki page? I hope you like it 😀 talking about the new version I like the changes
Apologies for my request friend

@AlexMurphy Who is working on ES now? Looks like Aloshi is gone, but there are hundreds of forks.. which is being used in RPi?
RetroPie v4.2 • RPi3 Model B • 5.1V 2.5A PSU • 8GB SanDisk class 10 microSD • 16GB External USB Thumb Drive
Roms, images and configs stored in USB and symlinked from normal microsd location
Xarcade Keyboard encoder + Zero Delay Joystick encoder -
@dsstrainer Various forks and changes are being developed by members of this forum. Hopefully some of that will be merged into ES. Or RetroPie will use its' own fork.
-
@dsstrainer Our fork is here - https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation
Please can we get this back on topic. If you have something to say that is not related to testing the new images, please start a new thread.
Seems so far the only use of this topic has been for people to ask support questions, which was not the intention.

@BuZz Sorry.

Shaders applied to one core seem to be applied to all cores (on the upside, they run freaking great on my pi-zero!)
