In the RGUI menu in FCEUMM I just edited my buttons to have Y on my SNES pad act as B and B on my SNES pad to act as A. Then I turned Configuration per core to ON and Configuration save on exit to ON and then chose Quit RetroArch to save these settings. When I exited and booted up a NES game my buttons were saved to this new configuration.

I had experience with this previously on the Wii port of RetroArch and it worked so I figured I would try it on my RetroPie.

I also just tried this on lr-fba and changed my buttons for Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, now I can have my weak punches and kicks on the shoulder buttons and my mediums and strongs on the face buttons. Saves me changing them each time I boot up that game.

I can’t seem to find where I need to change the hotkey button in my config. I am using an iBuffalo USB SNES pad.

Damn, the Supergrafx appears on the menu with the roms listed, but it doesn’t launch the games.

EDIT: I checked the runcommand.log in the /tmp folder and found that it failed to extract the rom from the .zip file. I extracted the SuperGrafx roms and re-added them as raw .pce files and it now works. At least I am figuring stuff out on my own without annoying people on the forums :P

[charco]

Added Turbografx 16 CD simple theme and it worked first time thanks to your guidance :)

Time for some Castlevania.

[charco]

D’oh! Thanks again, I will try to add PC Engine CD tomorrow evening :)

[charco]

Success! Thanks so much. What kind of wizardry did you do? Where had I made the mistake?

[charco]

Here it is, thanks for taking a look.

[charco]

I changed the permissions on the file, tried the file in both folders. Same error.

[charco]

Na I just cannot get this to work. It is saying I have an invalid config and won’t boot emulation station now. I have reverted to my previous config. Below is how I edited the config file. I edited it just like yours, or so I thought!

<system>
<fullname>PC Engine SuperGrafx</fullname>
<name>pcengine</name>
<path>~/RetroPie/roms/pcenginesupergrafx</path>
<extension>.pce .PCE .zip .ZIP</extension>
<command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ pcengine %ROM%</command>
<platform>pcenginesupergrafx</platform>
<theme>pcenginesupergrafx</theme>
</system>

[quote=99418]ok, goto

/home/pi

now make a new folder named

.emulationstation

now in that folder drop es_systems.cfg

and restart

[/quote]

Yeah, that folder is already there. The issue is I cannot move, edit, or copy my es_systems.cfg file that is located in /etc/emulationstation

EDIT: I added the Themes folder from /etc/emulationstation to /home/pi/.emulationstation

[charco]

Now I do not have permission to transfer my es_systems.cfg

KILL ME!!!

[charco]

It worked! Thanks a million! I transferred the pcenginesupergrafx folder into /etc/emulationstation/themes/simple with no issues. Now I will add a roms folder for this system and edit my es config similar to yours to see if I can get it on my ES menu :)

[charco]

Thanks, will try that this evening.

[charco]

It seems to just let me change the password with that command, how do I change the username? Also, I am doing this from a terminal session on the Pi and not in any specified directory?

[charco]

No joy. I use that command on my pi, enter a new password, retype the new password and get confirmation that it has been updated successfully. When I try Filezilla it does not connect with the new password but only connects with the old details User: pi Password: raspberry

[charco]

I plan on doing something similar for PC Engine CD and SuperGrafx so I might do that if I am successful with those. Thanks man.

[charco]

My neogeo.zip is 1,404kb and you can see the contents of the directory in the image attached.

[charco]

What about FBA Libretro? I swear by it on my Wii and Windows.

[charco]

Thanks, I’ll try that tomorrow after work :)

[charco]

Yeah I got that, thanks. I am unable to move the SuperGrafx folder to the simple folder though as it says there is an issue with permissions. I am using Filezilla.

[charco]

I guess this one and PC Engine CD will be included in the next release anyway.

[charco]

[charco]

Press F1 in game to pull up the RetroArch RGUI, go to Settings -> Video Settings and change aspect ratio.

[charco]

The permissions on the /etc/emulationstation/themes/simple folder do not allow me to add the pcenginesupergrafx folder to it.

[charco]

Hi, I am new to this, so apologies for my noobishness.

I would like to add this to my RetroPie menu and I can’t seem to find any tutorial thread on how do so.

Am I right in thinking I can simply backup my current es_systems config, add the contents from the theme text file to it, save it as my new config and add it back to my Pi 2 along with the SuperGrafx svg file and background image to the relevant folder for the config to find the correct assets and it will work?

EDIT: I think I understand, I add this theme to where the themes are kept but I will have to add the system to my es config file to add the system and then it will point to the right theme.

[charco]

Wow, that’s really great that this can all be configurable. Your idea for separating rom sets by region and translated roms is something I would also be very interested in. I’ll definitely take a look, thanks!

[charco]

Cool, thanks. I think I’ll try to find an AdvMAME romset, plenty of space on my SD card anyway so what harm :)

[charco]

No, what does this do? I don’t quite understand. I could search for a 0.106 romset, I just don’t know if it is worth it for the new games I can play with this set. Are there many classics fully supported that are not available in MAME4ALL?

[charco]

My lockups stopped when I deleted the gamelist.xml files via ssh aswell. Not scraping anything until this bug is resolved anyway.

[charco]

No problem! Glad I could help, enjoy your GBA games!

[charco]

I wonder does the issue only occur when there are a large amount of roms. I am using full rom sets on a 64GB SD card, Floob, I think you are only scraping a fairly small amount and are not experiencing the issue?

[charco]

Yeah mine was locking up on the system selection screen aswell.

[charco]

Hold x on the keyboard when lauching a game and you can set the default emulator for that system.

[charco]

What is the command to stop Emulation Station from running? I might try scraping again if that is guaranteed to be the safest way.

[charco]

I think this has something to do with gamelist.xml files. If I delete or add roms via ssh the gamelist file can not reconcile with missing games and Emulation Station freezes. The issue resolves itself when I delete the gamelist file.
