could you explain on a noob level how to copy the 2.6 binary? I’m on 3.0 and can’t get my PS3 wireless working, although it works just fine wired, and it does pair wireless on other emulators, just not mame4all.

I just found out there’s a couple seconds between when you select a game and it fires up that you press “x” and it takes you to a screen where you can choose between lr-mame4all and mame4all, but I think AdvMame is still separate.

@Floob – awesome-just tried that at lunchtime and it worked, at least with one game I tried (Donkey Kong). Other games I tried (ms Pac man, DKjr,) it would not insert credits or start the game but I’ll mess with it more tonight

EDIT-messed around some more last night. Very weird, in lr-mame4all the wireless controller only works with the DKONG ROM, i tried 10 other ROMS and nothing-can’t get insert coin or start to work. Re-did the retroarch congif and still no change. also, the sound bits were missing from dkong in lr-mame4all, even though I have the audio files in the samples folder and it works in mame4all. Changed back to mame4all as default emulator and PS3 wired works great. all games, including sound, so, for now I’m just going to use my PS3 controller wired. Not sure why the other ROMS didn’t work or had missing sound in lr-mame4all but I’m pushing my technical capabilites limits already and just going to keep gaming. Maybe PS3 wireless for mame4all will get figured out in the future.

Ultimately, the video is great and my PS3 controller does pair wirelessly, just have the issues with it working with the mame4all emulator.

@floob I’ll gladly give that a try, but dumb noobie question- is lr-mame4all included as part of the retropie image or do I need to load it separately? I don’t see an emulator folder called lr-mame4all to place ROMs into for testing. Appreciate the help and replies.

I had a similiar issue-if the monitor is older turn it on first, then power up the Pie, or check this out:

SOLVED! – HDMI not working on Raspberry Pi

I should have said I was on a beta version so tonight I wiped my SD card and re-imaged with Retropie 3. Had the PS3 controller working with NES, Sega, and Mame4all via wired connection wonderfully. Then followed video to go to wireless and it works wirelessly with NES and Sega, but not at all with Mame4All.

[ninjatool]

so I transferred a couple ROMs into FBA but they don’t load, so I’m probably doing something wrong there and I can’t see where the emulator is for lr-mame4all (or how it’s different from mame4all. I test more I am able to move through the ROM menu in mame and even select a game using the PS3 controller wireless, but once it loads I can’t enter credits or start, (or press TAB on the keyboard, seems like keyboard is completely disabled), and did confirm it works on sega and nintendo emulators.

Floob – great video. I’m a complete newbie but have gotten my raspberry pi set up and working due to your videos (and so many others posting on the forums). I added a PS3 controlled to an already working Nintendo USB and it works on everything but mame4all, which is what I really want it for. When the PS3 controller is connected, my keyboard won’t work in mame4all either, to hit Tab and map the joystick, but when I pull the bluetooth out, it does again. Have you tested the PS3 wireless with mame4all? Cheers!
