Memberfound a solution:
Try this for the dark places.sh
#!/bin/bash sudo darkplaces-sdl -basedir "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/quake" -quake
herbfargus
Memberdouble check the documentation again and notice its port 22.

If you’ve somehow borked up your ssh you can try re-enabling it again with sudo raspi-config (also make sure you’re not having any network issues/ make sure your wifi dongle if you have one is still working)

MemberSame issue here (that’s why I’d gather its in the experimental menu)
But if it runs outside of emulationstation fine it might have something to do with the launch script.

MemberLooks Brilliant!

Memberjust for reference see this post:
Joystick input number changing with different number of controllers

MemberThe solution is listed above as well as in the wiki:

Memberin future builds you should look at including opentyrian in the ports menu:
http://dosonthepi.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/install-opentyrian.html
also there was an issue with permissions with /tmp/runcommand.log but a simple chown pi:pi /tmp/runcommand.log fixed it.

2.: switch the usb port or swap hands?

Memberthe source code readme specifies it as .78 https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro but they also have done some patches so I don’t know about total compatibility- mame has always been a mystery to me
I also removed the garbage rows.

MemberI’m partial to the first one

Memberyou may need to install/restart samba shares in order for it to show up on samba shares
herbfargus
MemberNot that I know of.
herbfargus
MemberI tested it out tonight: you can also access the splashscreens folder over samba shares (once you restart samba shares from the setup script)
herbfargus
MemberSo you created a folder and put the video in it?
/home/pi/RetroPie/splashscreens/video/yourvideo.mp4
herbfargus
MemberUpdate your setup script, and under option 3 there is a theme installer. Install whichever theme suits your fancy (I prefer carbon) and then you can switch the theme from ui settings in the emulationstation start menu. Or you can wait like a day or two until 3.1 is released and carbon is installed by default on it.

MemberI don’t know about a windowed mode but you can do a custom viewport:
herbfargus
MemberAhhh… Yes that’s the one thing I didn’t try. I’ll update the wiki when I’ve got time- as that is very important to know.
herbfargus
Membermade a wiki page for it.

MemberThe vast majority of laptops only have HDMI output, not HDMI input like a television. so if you are wanting to set up your raspberry pi from your laptop you’d either have to use something like putty and manage things from the setup script in the terminal. you can also use winscp for transferring files and whatnot.
see this page for ways to remotely manage your pi:
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/First-Installation#transferring-roms

Memberthis is the wiki page on the runcommand menu if there is any confusion:

Memberits in the documentation:
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/RetroArch-Configuration
so if for some reason the up and down axes are really swapped you can just add
input_player1_up_axis = +1 input_player1_down_axis = -1
in your
/opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg
and it should invert themherbfargus
Memberbtw I’ve done more testing and at least in my case it seems to be the cue file that isn’t working- I can load the bin file directly from the rgui but I don’t get sound (I’m testing with sonic CD) so its possible the cue file you have may not work with lr-genesis-plusgx whereas lr-picodrive may accomodate varying cue files better. but thats just my guess, I’m not entirely sure what the issue may be.
herbfargus
Membersame issue here- but is there some reason why you can’t use lr-picodrive to run sega cd games?
herbfargus
Memberits a limitation of the hardware. ive never got satisfactory results on my rpi. it takes a lot of tweaking to get things barely functional but it just depends on the game and the settings. i usually just stick with the pc for n64 emulation. some people have also overclocked to get it to work.
herbfargus
Memberyou may need a powered usb hub:

herbfargus
Memberits in the plans for the future- probably won’t be a point release of 3 but once we do finally get to 4 I’m hoping something like that can be implemented.
Probably wont be a pretty gui- it will still be a dialog gui.
herbfargus
MemberThis is something that would need to be coded into emulationstation.
It can be done but its doubtful we’ll get to it anytime soon especially since emulationstation development is pretty much at a standstill for the time being- anything with emulationstation is best done upstream but if aloshi never picks it back up then we’ll have to look at integrating things on retropie’s branch.
if you want that type of setup you may be better off with the likes of hyperspin or recalbox (if that’s even part of recalbox- I wouldn’t know)
There also may be a way to script it but I haven’t the foggiest on how to implement it.
herbfargus
MemberThe wiki is a useful resource:
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Db9_gpio_rpi
If you don’t run rpi-update does it work?
herbfargus
MemberAre you sure this isn’t your issue?
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Can’t-Insert-Coins%3F
herbfargus
MemberSounds like a possible bad cable or lack of power. Test with another HDMI cable and or 2A 5V power supply.
herbfargus
MemberI added a wiki page to eliminate any confusion:
herbfargus
MemberThere is only one n64 folder- read the wiki:
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Nintendo-64
There used to be separate folders but now emulators can be switched dynamically with the runcommand menu as mentioned above.
