Keeping Restopie up to date?

Hello,

What is the best way to keep Retropie upto date?

Normally we would use apt-get update.

Update from binary on the setup script.

Hello,

Sorry I’m new to this world, can you explain that a bit more as I don’t understand?

Many thanks

From the terminal:

cd RetroPie
sudo ./retropie-setup.sh
update setup script
Exit the setup script

sudo ./retropie-setup.sh
Full binary installation
sudo reboot

Alternatively starting with retropie 3.0 there is a retropie menu in emulation station that has the setup script option so you don’t have to go into the terminal.

You can also do individual binary installs for individual emulators.

See these videos:

Full binary install:

Individual emulator update:

Updating to 3.0 from 2.6:

I find it easiest just to start with a fresh SD image but that’s just me.
