I did basically the same thing using parts from X-Arcade and two wired USB controllers. I actually made it to use with my Xbox 360 a few years ago, but it happens to be perfect for the Pi.

^^ that’s what I had to do too.

I’m not sure about that rom, but to exit a rom (assuming you’re using retroarch) you need to add a hotkey key to retroarch.cfg. something like this:

input_enable_hotkey_btn = “12”
input_exit_emulator_btn = “13″

I believe 12 and 13 are start and select on an xbox 360 controller, in case that’s what you’re using. Once you do that, holding select while you press start will exit the rom.

I guess I just skimmed the OP and missed that part. It’s strange, I’m also using a 64GB Samsung SD card and had 0 issues getting retropie to boot.

The one I’m using looks like this:

(I am using the B+ though, not a PI 2)

what does the section for mame4all in you es_systems.cfg file look like?

It’s better to use Win32 Disk Imager to install from the images on this site in the downloads section, I’ve found. It simplifies the whole process.

I used the 2.3 image.

Hmmm… all my roms are stored in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms, they are zipped, contain multiple files, and work perfectly. Maybe try getting them from a different source. (I had to find a diff version from 0.37b5 as the collection I found only had around 20 roms in it, but the vast majority of the ones I found work.)

To use the xbox 360 D-Pad in MAME you need to start xboxdrv using --dpad-as-button, then reconfigure MAME through the in-game interface. I got this working on my setup last night. Since I’m starting xboxdrv via rc,local the lines that start my controllers look like this:

xboxdrv --trigger-as-button --dpad-as-button --id 0 --led 2 --deadzone 4000 --silent &

I’ll look around for it myself, but I won’t have a chance until much later today.

I was thinking that’s what you meant, but I hadn’t noticed any games were missing sounds yet. The documentation for mame4all-pi says they should go in a /samples directory, but I haven’t come across that directory yet myself.

https://code.google.com/p/mame4all-pi/

That link appears to indicate that the /samples directory should be at the same level as /roms and /BIOS, but obviously it’s not there.

[labelwhore]

I’m not sure what you mean by ‘samples’ but MAME is working perfectly for me.

[labelwhore]

that’s the setup script for raspian, the one for retropie is in the /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup directory and is named restropie_setup.sh

[labelwhore]

Hmmm… Question, are you guys using option 1 from here?
https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Setting-up-the-XBox360-controller

At first glance, option 3 looks like it may make the D-Pads work better than the other two options. I’m currently using option 1. Any thoughts?

[labelwhore]

If I could replace the analog stick functionality with the D-Pad in MAME, that would actually work for me. What I’m trying to do is get a custom arcade stick I made from a couple Xbox 360 controllers to work in MAME. (I wired the sticks to the D-Pad.) I’ve configured all other emulators to use the D-Pad, MAME is the only one I have left to set up the same way.

[labelwhore]

I’d like to get the D-Pad working in MAME as well. Like the other posters, I haven’t found a fix.

[labelwhore]

I’m using the B+ so those lists are a great start. Thanks!
