Unfortunately Non-Blocking-Mode-Wait 1-5 and/or Res-Fix did not correct the situation.

Thanks for your response

General / Mouse/Trackball cursor/issues when launching from AM

« on: July 09, 2021, 01:28:26 PM »

Running 2.6.1 on a Pi4.

I noticed whenever I play any MAME core that there is a black "X" cursor that the trackball moves about the screen instead of being recognized by MAME. Note that this does not happen when I launch from Emulation Station, only Attract Mode.

Relevant cfg info:

General / Redream launches into black screen

« on: September 09, 2020, 06:46:44 AM »

Hey guys, got a question.

I've been using the Wolfanoz 256 Supreme Pro image on the Pi4 4GB, Dreamcast (redream) launches fine from Emulation Station. Swapped to Attract Mode (2.6.1) and everything works great except for Dreamcast (redream). When I run Dreamcast from Attractmode I get a black screen with a small "X" in the middle and no sound, controls don't respond but I can SSH into the Pi.

Here's the Emulationstation's config (which works):
<system>
    <name>dreamcast</name>
    <fullname>Dreamcast</fullname>
    <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/dreamcast</path>
    <extension>.cdi .chd .gdi .sh .zip .CDI .CHD .GDI .SH .ZIP</extension>
    <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ dreamcast %ROM%</command>
    <platform>dreamcast</platform>
    <theme>dreamcast</theme>
  </system>

And here's Attractmode's config (which does not work):
# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.6.1
#
executable           /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh
args                 0 _SYS_ dreamcast "[romfilename]"
rompath              /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/dreamcast
romext               .cdi;.gdi;.CDI;.GDI;.chd;.CHD
system               Sega Dreamcast

Any input would be appreciated. Thx!
