To play safe, what do you mean with “FX seems to be working ok”? Do you mean the special effects / graphics or do you mean games with a super fx chip [1]?

And basically, what are your experiences with super fx games, e.g. Star Fox? Are they playable?

Yepp, thats true, core_freq makes the difference. My settings:

arm_freq=1000
gpu_mem=384
core_freq=450
sdram_freq=500
over_voltage=6
avoid_safe_mode=1
force_turbo=0

And what sound Problems do you have after overclocking? A crackling on some games?

@motorhead: Work the overlock setting for you without freezes? Do you use a heatsink for your raspberry pi?

If I use those settings, my raspberry pi freezes in emulationstation.

Performance Issues with es-scraper

You changed manually the line from PIL to Image in scraper.py? If you use the scraper.py with the option -v, you get an Image resize error?

@petrockblog,

did you fix this? Or have I to do something special here? Everyone is talking about a menu, after the start of uae4rpi, but there isn’t one.

In directory /home/pi/RetroPie/emulators/uae4rpi there is the executable uae4all. Is this correct? uae4rpi != uae4all
If I start uae4all without the kick.rom file, I see only a black screen which leaves back to terminal. According to the documentation (docs/README), the emulator should work without the kick.rom file.
Regardless of the above, with the kick.rom file I see the “Kickstart Boot Picture”. And thats it. No menu. I can’t only reset the emulation (TAB+r) or quit (TAB+q).

I had only success with the floppy file named df0.adf. Thats my renamed gamerom.

Is this whole thing a bug or am I doing something wrong?

For the sake of completeness (already wrote that in the other post above):

Riddle solved. There was a change [1] on Nov 20, 2013:
Import PIL instead of just the Image class since it doesn’t resolve on all platforms.

-import os, imghdr, urllib, urllib2, sys, Image, argparse, zlib, unicodedata, re
+import os, imghdr, urllib, urllib2, sys, PIL, argparse, zlib, unicodedata, re

Change PIL to Image in scraper.py [2] and resize works again.

Hi,

I have the same problem and I opened a post [1]. Only now I saw this post here. And yes, somethings wrong with the image resize function in the python script.

Oh sorry, the first time I didn’t recognize this Post [1]. It’s the same problem.
