    Thank you hoofa for your kind words:-) And for your question: yes co can! I have the same setup, if you look at the picture of my arcade you can see two USB-ports in the middle, these are for keyboard and gamepads.

    worked perfectly, thanks so much for this! Quick question and slightly off topic so apologies, can you also configure a usb gamepad alongside the xin mo set up in case i want to play games using the pad instead or even to act as player 3/4 etc…?

    Topic: PS3 Controller Pairing issue

    This is a new issue to 3.4 and 3.5.

    Previously in 3.3 it was working fine.

    My Ps3 controllers won’t pair through bluetooth unless I plug them in through usb first.

    Once they are paired they are fine. But I hope that I don’t have to plug them in first before every time I want to play.

    I’ve looked around and I haven’t been able to find any solutions.

    Any ideas?

    do the same peripherals work fine if plugged in directly to your pi? none of these ‘sound’ like hub issues, especially if it’s externally powered.

    there’s a compatibility list on http://elinux.org/RPi_Powered_USB_Hubs but that’s more aimed at people powering their pis from the powered USB hub. i wouldn’t expect the hubs themselves to have issues just powering USB devices, if they are externally powered, but maybe it’s possible.

    i use a belkin slim 4 port powered hub. works fine.

    Topic: Arcade Cabinet – Disable Joystick controls / switch to PS3 controllers

    in forum Controller Configuration in RetroPie
    pohlinger31
    Participant

    Hello,

    I’m working on finishing up building an arcade cabinet with a retropie setup. The cabinet controls are a two player joystick and button configuration.

    My question is, is it possible to disable the joystick controls easily within retropie, and switch over to using PS3 controllers? I want to use the PS3 controllers for games that aren’t conducive to arcade gaming. If I don’t disable the joysticks somehow, the ps3 controllers link up as player 3 and player 4, which isn’t going to work. The only method I could think of now is to just unplug the USB for the joystick and button controls, but it would be great if there was a software switch I could make to turn off the joysticks, and then use the PS3 controllers.

    Thanks for the help!

    [quote=116292]Hi;

    I am having some trouble with RetroPie. I have a Logitech Rumblepad II controller and a Keysonic RF Keyboard.

    When first booted RetroPie it would say controller recognised and let me configure it, now the buttons no longer work and when I boot RetroPie I cannot configure the controller as I no longer get an option to do so. I have tried plugging in a keyboard as well but nothing on the keyboard is recognised until I hit F4 which quits RetroPie to a terminal, then the keyboard works as expected?

    The reason I need both a controller and a Keyboard is because I am mainly interested in Amiga Games and to get the ROMs loaded at the Kickstart Menu you need a keyboard?

    How do I setup up my RetroPie to use a controller and a Keyboard.

    I was using a PiZero with a USB Hub but am also trying a Pi Model B (Same SD Card).

    [/quote]

    From my current experience I have not had a problem with the keyboard. I don’t believe there is any setup requited. When your on the Amiga Emulator just press the Alt and CTRL keys on your keyboard. I think you will find that these both are things your looking for. One of them switches between mouse and controller.

    Hope this helps. Also it doesn’t hurt to make a hardfile with WHDLoad installed almost every game in existence is available for download pre-configured. They still sell the registration for that. I’m a registered member. Love it on my Emus and all my Amiga’s

    If theres more to explain or if I just didn’t understand your questions well let me know.

    Controller used: Logitech F310
    Error messages received: None

    I followed this video step for step

    Everything goes perfectly in Putty with no errors, when I reboot the PI there are no pictures or data

    I used FileZilla to look into the PI’s directory to ensure everything worked.
    /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/snes

    When I go under the directory (/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/snes) there is a gamelist.xml. When I opened it, all the games and data is there. If into the images directory (/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/snes/images) all the images that scraper downloaded are there. So I know it downloaded everything properly, but still nothing is showing in EmulationStation.

    I deleted the gamelist.xml from the emulationstation directory (/opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/gamelists/snes) to see if the two different .xml files were causing a conflict. Rebooted the Pi and still no data or pictures

    I moved all the images from

    to
    /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/downloaded_images/snes

    rebooted the PI and still nothing.

    Topic: Emulation Station config launches at weird times, help!

    in forum Controller Configuration in RetroPie

    [sort of a report but with proper details this time]
    Hi there and thanks, advance, if anyone can help. Here’s my problem:

    I’ve built a bartop arcade cabinet for my two kids to enjoy the games of my youth. It uses only AdvMame and about 15 oooooold school arcade games.

    It’s built on a RaspberyPie 2 B running RetroPie and Emulation Station. I have 5 buttons (insert coin, player 1, fire/jump, alt action, quit) and a 4-direction joystick from Adafruit all direct wired into the GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pie board. The joystick is mapped to ARROW UP, ARROW DOWN, etc etc and the buttons are mapped to various keys (5,6,enter,etc) to send commands to the emulator so the user can both navigate and play the games

    It all works flawlessly – EXCEPT for this:

    When I am in the MAME menu of ES and I launch a game, there’s a brief moment between selecting the game and when it comes up on screen (while the ROM itself is loading). If, during that time, you move the joystick at all, the ROM stops loading and a configuration screen pops up (one with emulator specific configs – Select default emulator for MameAdv, Select default emulator for ROM, etc)

    Because my kids are…well, kids…when they pick a game they are very likely to get anxious and touch the joystick or a button, etc. When they do so, the ROM stops loading and I have to dig up a USB keyboard to exit out of the config menu and get back into ES.

    Is there anyway to either a) disable this or b) re-map what keys call up this menu so that the joystick/buttons cannot do so.

    Thanks for any thoughts on solving this!

    [quote=116298]/opt/retropie/roms/snes isn’t the right folder. it shouldn’t even exist!
    if memory serves, the /opt/ directories should just be
    /opt/retropie/emulators (the actual executable files for the various emulators)
    /opt/retropie/configs (the config files for the same)

    all roms are transferred to and run from /home/pi/RetroPie/roms – the contents here should match what you see in emulationstation.[/quote]
    Right, I think I may have worked it out then. Whenever I’ve had my USB stick in (and I’ve put files into that /opt/retropie/roms/snes folder) then it’s overwriting important stuff on the Pi. So does it copy over roms automatically? That would explain why they’re appearing twice. I’ll tinker more with it this weekend.

    [quote=116306]The splashscreen comes up for a set amount of time, while ES and whatever else starts up behind it. After the set amount of time, (or if you’re using a video splashscreen, after the video ends) you’ll see the ES loading screen.

    I figured out what it was. It would freeze if I had my PS3 controller plugged into the USB. In the past, I was using my PS3 controller wirelessly through a USB bluetooth dongle, and that way it never interfered with the Apple emulator.

    Now, if I just unplug the PS3 controller after launching the Apple emulator, the keyboard controls will work just fine again.

    in forum Everything else related to the RetroPie Project

    Can anyone recommend a good USB hub that works properly with the Raspberry Pi B and Retropie? I’ve tried a few up to and including an Amazon Basics powered hub (AmazonBasics 4 Port USB 3.0 Hub with 5V/2.5A power adapter https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DQFGH80/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_xQpTwbWE7952P). None seem to work well. At best, things like keyboards are only recognized if they’re plugged into the hub at startup. Changing things around after that never works. At worst, peripherals such as USB gamepads aren’t recognized whether they’re plugged in at boot time or any time thereafter. Or is this a matter of the USB drivers for the Pi itself, and if so are there better ones that can be applied?

    1. Just at work now but I’ll read the link again later or tomorrow. I’ve already plugged in a network cable and updated RetroPie.

    To be clear, what’s the difference between these two sets of folders?

    /opt/retropie/rom/snes

    /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/snes

    If I recall, I’ve been copying the roms from the /media/usb0 (or whatever it was) to /opt/retropie/rom/snes …

    I may experiment with wiping the opt/retropie/roms and see what happens.

    8. Good idea, thanks. On the subject, does the splash just play and then resume loading? Or is it meant to ‘mask’ the screen as long as it plays?

    looks like there’s an outstanding issue with the USB transfer here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/1211

    i can’t explain your other issue. i’ve never deleted roms from the file manager, but you can use command line to find out exactly what is in these folders. just go

    cd /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/snes
ls

    then you should get a list of everything in the snes folder (change snes to whatever system you’re deleting from). if file manager isn’t deleting things properly then i guess it has a bug, assuming you’re deleting them from the directory above?

    8. try it with someone elses splash video (eg one of the ones you’ve seen working online). if that works then it must be how you’ve encoded it.

    Further thoughts:

    1. The only causes for this that I can think of is:

    A. Hardware issue related to the SD card or even the USB stick I’m using for transfers. I’ll see if I can source replacements and test with them.

    B. I’m doing part of the installation process or another step wrong. I may download the whole image again and try everything from scratch, step by step, and test with one ROM per emulator.

    Afternoon all,

    As per title, I am trying to deal with the multi disk games available for the psx and think I am getting somewhere currently but the library is a bit of a mess.

    I could manually edit the metadata to show disk numbers to list properly (at this point disk 2 is first, then disk 3 and finally 1) but what I would REALLY like is to only have the first disk show and then manage disk swaps through RGUI when it needs it through direct file names from the SD/USB stick.

    Any thoughts? Is this even possible?

    Thanks!

However, when it plays there’s no sound. Is that to be expected?

    RetroPie 3.4 (latest)

    Using rhaphnet Snes to Usb chip controller. This works great with lr-snes9x-next and the controller works great.

    Changed the emulator to lr-catsfc and the dpad axis’s do not work.

    However the axis does work on the menu in the game. e.g Super Mario Allstars – the menu to select a rom, the axis works then. Even when a rom is chosen (Super Mario Bros 3) the axis works, but when you actually get to gameplay – it stops. Actually just tested again and it seems only the hotkey buttons work in game.

    Swap back to lr-snes9x-next and it all works again.

    hello all, thanks in advance for the help.
    have a weird issue (aren’t they all?)
    my config is RPi1 with 2 USB SNES controllers and latest version (3.4) of retropie
    all works fine EXCEPT controller stays “stuck” on last input in some SNES roms. some of my favorite of course (bomberman2, micro machines, connors tennis,..). by stuck, i mean if i press right and release, it will keep going right until i press another button.
    – controller works fine in menus
    – works fine in other emulators (atari2600, mame)
    – works fine with a bunch of snes roms (mario world, mariokart,..)
    – the problem disappears if i use pisnes instead of lr-pocketsnes. (though i get other button mapping issues)
    – tried other type of controllers and got the same issue (xbox)

    >> i could fix the mapping of buttons for pisnes and call it a day but it seems to not be as smooth as pocketsnes, screen is smaller, etc. so i’d rather get everything working on pocketsnes. anybody encountered this issue?

    Hey, I have Shanwan controllers that both use a single USB dongle. To get Retroarch to use them, you need to set up both player 1 and player 2 to use the same controller. Just make sure to configure player 2 on that second controller. Maybe this will work on yours as well. *crosses fingers*

    Thanks team for checking on this issue. My leisure time has been in crunch!!. I did run the emulator and when it does not run the rom, I checked the /tmp/runcommand.log and honestly when I do “sudo edit” nothing is there.. I was surprised. I have changed 3 romsets because having corrupted romset was one of my thoughts. I don’t think I have the expertesie to rebuild romset. I will definitely check the romsize for neogeo.zip. Also it was a clean install and then I did the USB drive mapping. I do agree with dankcoushious regarding “doing too many thinks at the same time” but this time it was just a simple install.

    What I noted that few FBA roms work and 90% don’t… I cant figure that out either.

    I cannot seem to get my controller to work. Same issue as the OP. I grabbed the most recent copy of RetroPie SD Card image for the RPi2. I then ran apt-get update/upgrade. Then in the RetroPie setup screen i selected the Binary-Based installation. I enabled the xboxdrv daemon from the setup screen. Still nothing. I noticed that xboxdrv was still at ver 0.8.5. I found and installed the 0.8.8 but that didnt fix it either.

    Could anyone explain how to get it working starting with the RPi2 SD Card image?

    7) this is normal. you can see what games run well (and using what plugin) looking at the n64 compatibility spreadsheet on the wiki.

    Ah.

    [quote=116178]4: the location is /home/pi/RetroPie/roms

    That’s done it. Thanks!

    [quote=116149]i’m not sure i understand this. you don’t need to see the SD card file structure on windows if you’re doing the USB method – (reiterating the video) you put the USB in the pi whilst retropie is running, and it will create a folder structure. connect the USB to your pc then put the roms in the relevant directories on the USB, and then you put it in the pi and it will transfer everything to your SD card. you never need to access the SD card on your PC.

    I’ve got it now, thank you – I was getting myself mixed up on the Transferring Roms page where it seemed to list 4 methods, but ‘USB’ and ‘Manually copy files from USB-stick’ seem to be the same process.

    Ok, here’s where I’m up to. I’ve been adding more roms, got ScummVM working (I guess we’ll find out if she likes adventure games like Fate of Atlantis…) and added some more roms.

    1. File issues are re-occurring.

    Last night everything was working fine. Tonight I copied over a second bunch of snes roms but they don’t appear – in fact Snes has totally disappeared from RetroPie now. They’re definitely there on the system SD card. Space is 953M / 7337M. I’ve restarted without my USB stick in and re-ran expand file system but it’s the same.

    In my Genesis, I’ve deleted some roms, but they still appear in the RetroPie UI and can be loaded…?! I’m back to the problem with my original build where files aren’t being refreshed.

    4. Removing emulators – this has re-occurred. I’ve went to opt/retropie/roms and moved folders to /unused in the same location, restart Pi but a number of emulators are still on RetroPie. I wonder if this is part of #1.

    7. N64 performance is poor. Lots of slow down and stuttering music. Any suggestions? I’m on a Raspberry Pi 2 so I’d have thought it would be better.

    People seem to be recommending that you get a USB to ide adapter and use USB.

    The other way seems to be possible, but I think there’s not much support out there for that method. If something happens, you’ll more than likely be on your own.

    I think that only has an “iCade” mode, so I’m not sure quite how that plays with a standard connection. The 8bitdo pads can connect as keyboard, joypad, iCade or just with a USB cable, but I guess I could set mine to iCade mode and see if I can connect.

    Does your controller have a manual or spec sheet?
