the main reason i use png’s

[InsecureSpike]

yup I’m sure you can disable them via the retroarch gui

[InsecureSpike]

but could it be possible?

[InsecureSpike]

hi floob, can this v1.0 be used to apply scaliness to non libretro systems?

[InsecureSpike]

yeah, thats what the default emulator is like, but now to make it closer to the original console, shaders have been enabled, the original gameboy had a yellow-green pallet, this gave caring shades of yellow/green,

so this is as close to the original display at the moment we can get!

[InsecureSpike]

my console did way back in the day!

[InsecureSpike]

that’s correct! the game boy had a yellow/green – grey/green pallet.

use the google and you’ll see

[InsecureSpike]

ah, nope i’m using Razer Onza Tournament Edition. yup, maybe thats it then

[InsecureSpike]

ok, well i’ve been playing Mario Kart 64 for 20+mins with no issues!!

have you all upped yer memory split?

[InsecureSpike]

thanks,

sudo apt-get install sysbench

[InsecureSpike]

what are the commands for stress tests?

[InsecureSpike]

theres a fair bit of chatter on github…

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues

[InsecureSpike]

what speccy game was it? what emu? I’ll give it ago shortly

[InsecureSpike]

guy’s what happens when playing lower spec machines?

as testing with N64 is a little bias as it don’t run too great on a Pi3, anyway!
forget the N64, PSX & PSP for now they are very taxing for the poor lil Pi’s

game gear?
gameboy?
gameboy color?
gameboy advance?
master system?
nes?
pcengine?
megadrive/genesis?
snes?
neo geo?

[InsecureSpike]

personally i’d never use such a large gb card, as if the card fails, you’ll have lost lots of your project, if you have lots of roms, please consider using a 4-8gb card with a large gb usb drive or hdd/ssd

if your smaller one works no issues grab yourself a usb drive

[InsecureSpike]

should be good, just format it to ext4

[InsecureSpike]

also, what are you wanting to do?
run roms from usb?
transfer roms from usb to pi-SD card?

[InsecureSpike]

guys have you updated your set-up since your initial installation?
via the binaries in the Retropie set-up menu?

[InsecureSpike]

[quote=121753]hey guys, so no way to get music on it?!?

[/quote]

[quote=121760]Nope. Use recalbox if you want music.

[/quote]

can never really understand why people want music? as it’s not as if it changes with the system is it? or when scrolling thru the game list?

[InsecureSpike]

[quote=121676]Hello,

Yes I did reboot.
what do you mean by binary update?

Thanks!

[/quote]

go to the retropie config menu and select Retropie Set-Up.

then from the next menu select “update setup script” once that is done exit, then re enter, and select the first option, “update binaries”

[InsecureSpike]

awesome mate!

[InsecureSpike]

haha, well said!

[InsecureSpike]

did you reboot?

have you done a binaries update?

[InsecureSpike]

could try this

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

right at the bottom add

max_usb_current=1

[InsecureSpike]

there nothing wrong with using 128gb cards, but this is what i’m trying to say, what happens if your card corrupts? or god forbid, an update fails or encounters a problem?

[InsecureSpike]

i’m wondering on card compatibility with Jessie (i could be completely wrong)
also card size…

Pi 3 and 128GB MicroSD?

heres Wheezy compatibility list

http://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards

[InsecureSpike]

i’d suggest a smaller gb sd card say 4gb – 8gb (x2) then get your self a 128gb usb drive, as using such a large sd card could run into issues if corrupted, then all your roms will be lost,
with a usb drive you can keep all the retropie system bits on the sd card and have your roms on the usb drive, separate & safe

these are what i use, the SD cards seem to take lots of rewriting too,

4gb Kingston SD card

128gb Kingston USB drive

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/371052738512?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

[InsecureSpike]

I had 2 of them

[InsecureSpike]

edit the es_systems.cfg

sudo nano /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg

edit these bits… <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/amiga</path>

i would also move it to

/opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation

so as updates won’t write over it

[InsecureSpike]

try the writer from here, I’ve not tried it myself, but a fellow member posted a link the other day (sorry I can’t remember who you are)

but I’d probably stay away of doing that way, as if you develop a fault in you file system, you’ll need to probably start all over again.
I’d suggest just running your roms from your pi drive!

[InsecureSpike]

ok thanks, what file types does it support?

thanks

[InsecureSpike]

can this run GX4000 roms?

It’s a shame that the system select screen isn’t more moddable as you can’t even change the colour of the carousel bar.

Carousel bar color is not configurable as an option in theme configuration xml files. It is hardcoded, but EmulationStation is an open source project. You can modify this colour as you wish, afaik in line 302, where it’s value is 0xFFFFFFD8 (RGB+alpha?). https://github.com/Aloshi/EmulationStation/blob/unstable/es-app/src/views/SystemView.cpp Then compile this source as decribed here: https://github.com/Aloshi/EmulationStation/tree/unstable#building I am not a programmer, so didn’t try it by myself Your previews are awesome, thank you. Any chance for Game Boy and NES packages?

[/quote]

oh this would be awesome if someone could fix this!! I hate that bar!!!!

also! awesome work ruckage!
looking forward to your next preview sets!!

thank you

[InsecureSpike]
