Raspberry Pi Image for Pi2, Pi3 and Pi4 - with RetroPie

[mxstar1]

i was able to manually upgrade it to 4.0 through retropie config. Only issue so far was the splash screen location was changed, so it didnt show. i just added a splashscreen back to the old path and it works again. Probably better to edit it to find the new loacation, but i dont know how to. So far so good!

Thanks for the updated version just noticed Nevato layout not working on this build as its nested in a folder nevato-theme so attract mode cannot load the files and gives you a broken layout if used simple fix of moving the Nevato folder to its parent folder layouts and deleting nevato-theme.

Is this something I can fix in NEVATO theme? or not?
I'll be testing this image in a couple of days (when I get back from my vacation) - so let me know if I can help.

Hi Guys,

Loaded latest image onto Pi 3. Using xin mo 1 player encoder. I configure my joystick and buttons and all good. I load a game mame libretro runs fine, play fine. If i shut down and restart then launch a game, there's a message from retroarch, saving config file to a directory then my xin mo wont work, I restart and launch game retro message is xin mo not configured. Can I stop retroarch from saving the config as it seems to overwrite the settings for xin mo ?

cheers

Can you confirm which file(s) you edit to get the xin-mo configured. Its important not to add any lines under the #include line on the system specific retroarch.cfg files.
Can you post your mame-libretro retroarch.cfg to pastebin?

I have sent you a PM Mr Floob.

@philby85
Please put on pastebin.com a copy of this file before you load mame-libretro and after you have quit it.
/opt/retropie/configs/mame-libretro/retroarch.cfg (You can access that via the samba shares as well if you want)

What menu options do you choose when you say
"Then I go to retropie setup i edit the mamelibretro.cfg to add shaders and rotate the display."

It would be good to get a copy of the file above after those changes as well.

Hi Floob,

http://pastebin.com/iRz9zcRz this is the cfg after I have configured it and it is working ok.

I will post another one after the problem starts.

Thanks for your help

Update: i think i have discovered why it happens. I had my machine set up with a two way joystick, so if i did not have a keyboard connected i could not navigate to shutdown in the menu. So i would use the toggle switch on the pi power supply. Once i reboot from that the config file is re written. I have now set the joystick to 4 way and I can shutdown from the menu.

For the xin-mo (or any joystick/gamepad) I create the following file and retroarch should auto load it /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/Xin-MoXin-MoDualArcade.cfg

Code: [Select]

input_device = "Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade"
input_driver = "udev"
input_a_btn = "4"
input_b_btn = "3"
input_x_btn = "1"
input_y_btn = "0"
input_start_btn = "7"
input_select_btn = "6"
input_l_btn = "2"
input_r_btn = "5"
input_up_axis = "-1"
input_down_axis = "+1"
input_left_axis = "-0"
input_right_axis = "+0"
input_l2_btn = "8"
input_r2_btn = "9"

input_enable_hotkey_btn = "9"
input_exit_emulator_btn = "8"
input_rewind_btn = "1"
input_menu_toggle_btn = "4"
input_reset_btn = "3"
input_pause_toggle_btn = "0"
input_load_state_btn = "2"
input_save_state_btn = "5"
input_state_slot_increase_axis = "+0"
input_state_slot_decrease_axis = "-0"
input_volume_up_axis = "-1"
input_volume_down_axis = "+1"

Thanks ! I appreciate it.

After updating to the newest image, the dreamcast / Reicast emulator doesn't have any sound ?

anybody know how to fix that ?

[philby85]

Another question. If i set the startup mode in AM to be launch last game, on restart it takes me to the retropie setup screen. Any ideas ?

cheers
