Yes Final Burn Alpha (FBA) works better IMHO. FBA is a multi system emulator. It does neogeo just fine (and better than the arcade emulators). One thing though you'll need to have the neogeo bios in with your roms (not in the default bios folder) for some strange reason. I use the retroarch/libretro core (lr-fbalpha) https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Neo-Geo

I had all sort of issues with the controller when using FBA...I was able to make it work with lr-mame.

General / How to change the emulator order

« on: February 05, 2017, 06:17:53 PM »

Hey guys, I know this question has been answered before but here's my issue.

I moved one of the displays to a different location in the attract.cfg file and it seems to work at first since the order is changed but when i move to the next display, attract mode exits and gives me a segmentation fault.

Any ideas?

I will give that a try, thanks!

do you have a pi3? why are you using gn-geo-pi? Just asking.

I do have a pi3. Do you recommend using another emaulator than gn-geo-pi?

thx

That helped, thanks. I can now start games.

I'm now having issues with the controls. I'm using Gn-Geo-Pi as the emulator, a SNES controller and the following in the gngeorc file:

p1control A=J0B2,B=J0B1,C=J0B3,D=J0B0,START=K49,COIN=K53,UP=J0a1,DOWN=J0a1,LEFT=J0A0,RIGHT=J0A0,MENU=K27

The buttons are working but not the Right, Left, Up or Down.

Any ideas?

I learned a lot by playing with the config files.

I even added a new emulator (i.e menu option) which is called "help" which provides information such as keyboard and gamepad commands for all the emulators.

Thanks again guys for your help! Besides having some issues with NeoGeo ROMs, everything is working AOK.

Cheers!

You want to make a new emulator in attract mode for each system.

For sega32x:

1. press TAB

2. Once in the configuration screen go to emulators

3. Go to the bottom and add emulator

4. Name it sega32x

5. in the executable line put this

Code: [Select]

/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh
6. in the args line put this

Code: [Select]

0 _SYS_ sega32x "[romfilename]"
7. in your rom path(s) put this

Code: [Select]

/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/sega32x
8. in your Rom extensions put this

Code: [Select]

.32x .smd .bin .md .zip .32X .SMD .BIN .MD .ZIP
9. in the system identifier put this

Code: [Select]

sega32x
10. generate rom list

11. press escape (esc)

for game gear

a. repeat steps 2 and 3 above

b. Create a new emulator

c. name it gamegear

d. in the executable line put this

Code: [Select]

/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh
e. in the args line put this

Code: [Select]

0 _SYS_ gamegear "[romfilename]"
f. in your rom path(s) put this

Code: [Select]

/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/gamegear
g. in your Rom extensions put this

Code: [Select]

.gg .bin .sms .zip .GG .BIN .SMS .ZIP
h. in the system identifier put this

Code: [Select]

gamegear
i. generate rom list

press escape (esc) twice to go back to the main screen....they should be there.

Thanks! Everything works perfectly now. I will now try Intellivision using your procedure.

Cheers!

I Added this to  /home/pi/.attract/emulators change /media/usb0/roms/ to your roms location map!

Sega Gamegear.cfg

# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.2.1 # executable           /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh args                 0 _SYS_ gamegear "[romfilename]" rompath              /media/usb0/roms/gamegear romext               .gg;.bin;.sms;.zip;.GG;.BIN;.SMS;.ZIP system               Sega Gamegear info_source          thegamesdb.net artwork    flyer           /media/usb0/roms/gamegear/boxart artwork    marquee         /media/usb0/roms/gamegear/marquee artwork    snap            /media/usb0/roms/gamegear/snap artwork    wheel           /media/usb0/roms/gamegear/wheel

Now i can collect games inside attract mode and they work if you have the right emulator installed hope this helped

All good now, did a typo...Thanks for your help!

For PC and pi without retropie:

ghostfur is correct if it is the retropie image...almost...
remember your path and hers/his will be different..
the default paths for retropie are

32X

Code: [Select]

/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/sega32x Game Gear

Code: [Select]

/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/gamegear
What problems are you having..the retropie image should not need any configuration.

The emulators appear in Emulationstation but not as choices in Attract Mode.

I will try both suggestions. Thanks guys. I will let you know the results.

I'm using retropie 4.2. Where should enter this information? Create a new emulator? So many questions...sorry. I tried the other solution above and the issue remains. Strange that it works in Emulationstation.

Hi,

Does anyone have a list of all the Colecovision rom names?

I have over 100 of them but they are not named correctly and as such are not recognized by CoolCV.

Thx
