gizmo98ParticipantWe had preset shaders per core until RetroPie 2.0. Some users disliked the default selection so shaders are disabled by default.
You can select and test shaders at runtime by pressing F1. RGUI contains a shader menu.
gizmo98ParticipantJust start with “sudo ./retropie_setup.sh” and select the emus you are looking for under “Source based installation”. Ports can be removed under /home/pi/retropie/rom/ports.
gizmo98ParticipantI only have three controllers. Two SNES replicas and one PS3 controller. The PS3 controller works best but has no retro feeling ;-)
gizmo98ParticipantHave you moved the rome to the right location? /home/pi/retropie/roms/snes and /home/pi/retropie/roms/nes?
gizmo98ParticipantThere is also one retroarch.cfg file for every core. Settings in these files will overwrite the global retroarch.cfg settings. Take a look under /opt/retropie/configs/.
gizmo98ParticipantI cannot test now. You can try to run EmulationStation from X11. The binary can be found under /opt/retropie/supplementary/EmulationStation.
I am only aware of three SDL2 applications now:
EmulationStation, RetroArch (don’t know if SDL2 video driver can use shaders(GLES2)), mupen64plus.gizmo98ParticipantIs there a issue with X11 or without X11? It should be possible to start X11 and mupen64plus from RetroPie with “xinit mupen64plus %rom%”.
gizmo98ParticipantAdded and tested. You can update RetroPie-Setup and try the new experimental menu item.
gizmo98ParticipantPlease update RetroPie-Setup and try again.
gizmo98ParticipantJust added you gamepad config:
https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/supplementary/RetroArchConfigs/USB_2-axis_8-button_gamepad.cfggizmo98ParticipantI have already made an install script. CatSFC is definitely slower than pocketsnes-libretro atm.
https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup/blob/testing/scriptmodules/libretrocores/catsfc.sh
gizmo98Participantlibmupen64plus-libretro.so is not compiled. Do you have a Pi with 512MB Ram? Please update RetroPie-Setup and compile again.
gizmo98ParticipantIf you configure “select” as a input_enable_hotkey_btn you also need an input_enable_hotkey for your keyboard. Strange but true…
gizmo98ParticipantAs somewhere else stated mupen64plus-libretro needs at least 1GHz OC. If you have graphics issues try to use another video plugin (rice or gles2n64). Open RGUI with “F1” and select “Core Options/Video PlugIn”.
Mupen64plus standalone needs less CPU power but has other issues (emulationstation + escape key).
Both emulators are still under development, so hopefully there will be some fixes and speed improvements.
gizmo98ParticipantKnown problem:
gizmo98Participantmupen64plus-libretro uses retroarch.cfg and should run with any setup keyboard or gamepad. mupen64plus (ricrpi) standalone emulator should run with any gamepad that is listed here:
https://github.com/ricrpi/mupen64plus-input-sdl/blob/master/data/InputAutoCfg.inigizmo98ParticipantIt’s still under development:
https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/graphs/contributorsgizmo98ParticipantJust check out if shaders are disabled in your individual retroarch.cfg files. The current RetroArch-Setup disables shaders at default:
https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/emulators/retroarch.sh#L111
gizmo98ParticipantBoth can be started from emulationstation. But you can only exit mupen64plus-libretro with escape. See also –> https://www.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/mupen64plus-ricrpi-branch/page/2/
gizmo98ParticipantNo. RetroPie-Setup overrides the whole block if you build and install an emulator.
gizmo98ParticipantThe included n64 emulator of RetroPie 2.3 SD-card image seems to be broken. There are there n64 emulators at the moment. mupen64plus-rpi (deprecated), a newer mupen64plus fork from ricrpi and a mupen64plus-libretro core.
It’s necessary to update RetroPie-Setup to build and install the newer emulators.
Just disable emulationstation with “F4″, update RetroPie-Setup and install one emulator with RetroPie-Setup:
Press F4 cd RetroPie-Setup sudo git pull sudo ./retropie_setup.shSelect Experimental Packages
gizmo98ParticipantHi ricrpi,
your mupen64plus fork works fine standalone. But started from emulationstation there is an issue with the escape key. Every mupen64plus-core key-mapping is not working. Joystick is working fine. There are other SDL2 emus/games which have some keyboard issues with emulationstation like darkplaces quake. I don’t know how to debug emulationstation or mupen64plus.

gizmogizmo98ParticipantI will try to add a install script.
gizmo98ParticipantDo you have the same “start” button problem with snes and other libreto cores? Sounds like a hotkey problem. Just open RetroPie-Setup, select SETUP and “Change hotkey behaviour”. Select 3 and reboot your pi.
gizmo98ParticipantThere are two N64 emulators at the moment. Mupen64plus and mupen64plus-libretro. Both emulators can be installed with the current RetroPie-Setup. Every emulator has issues. Mupen64plus is hard to configure and it is impossible to disable this emulator if it is started from emulationstation. Mupen64plus-libretro should be more compatible but is even slow at 1GHz OC.
Just disable emulationstation with “F4”, update RetroPie-Setup and install one emulator with RetroPie-Setup:
Press F4cd RetroPie-Setup sudo git pull sudo ./retropie_setup.shSelect Experimental Packages
gizmo98Participant@RetroMarine
Your RetroPie-Setup is not up to date. Try:
cd RetroPie-Setup
sudo git pull
sudo ./retropie_setup.shARMSNES-libretro can be found under Experimental packages.
gizmo98ParticipantOverclock to 950MHz and/or try armsnes-libretro core. Armsnes-libretro can be found under “RetroPie-Setup/EXPERIMENTAL packages”.
gizmo98Participant576p is to small and 720p is to big. Someone could ask the minecraft developer to add a fullscreen mode and an exit button –> http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/other-platforms/minecraft-pi-edition.
gizmo98ParticipantMinecraft-Pi seems to have a fixed resolution. So changing the screen resolution with runcommand.sh to for example 720p could be a solution. I will check it out later.
gizmo98Participantgizmo98ParticipantYou cannot configure an escape key. You can only open the menu with “select” + “R1” and select exit emulator.
gizmo98ParticipantI have the same behaviour atm. Press ALT+CTRL+F2. Close emulationstation with F4 and switch back to terminal one with ALT+CTRL+F1.
gizmo98ParticipantShould be possible. Are there installation instructions or sources?
gizmo98ParticipantDon’t know how to fix the escape key problem atm. If it is necessary to quit the emulator with escape or gamepad the only solution is to use mupen64plus-libretro: https://www.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/mupen64plus-not-worth-the-trouble/#post-82350
gizmo98ParticipantYou can switch video plugins under RGUI/Core-Options.
