rdhanded2Participantnice. Glad I could help.

not sure if you can edit this or not and I am not near my pi to test it.
rdhanded2ParticipantThe above will make it work.
rdhanded2ParticipantIt is a driver issue with the retrousb adapters, I have the same issue. A change was made to the kernel that messed up the drivers a while back. I have mostly solved it by rolling back the kernel to a previous version that worked with the adapters.
sudo rpi-update 4e2845e0cbe7e701f0431e66a26f730de264e7a6
enter the above through putty or terminal and it will take care of the problem for the most part. If I ssh into my pi and then return to playing games it will still scroll sometimes but a full power off corrects it. Only work around I have found. The problem does not happen with the iBuffalo controllers.
rdhanded2ParticipantFormat the drive fat32
rdhanded2ParticipantYa, you don’t want to just cut power repeatedly.
rdhanded2ParticipantWell if anyone here has a 3D printer and wants to tackles them I would buy a few!
rdhanded2ParticipantI have no issues with games being sluggish that I have noticed. I have been playing Broken Sword 2 lately and it seems to run fine for me. I am using a pi2 overclocked to the pi2 setting.
rdhanded2ParticipantLooks awesome! The dual usb panel mounts fit great. Did you make the attachment piece for them?
rdhanded2ParticipantThis happened to me recently. I went into the retropie options menu and reinstalled dosbox from binary and it fixed the issue.
rdhanded2ParticipantIf you can share how you fixed your issues for anyone else who might have the same problem.
rdhanded2ParticipantAwesome work!
rdhanded2ParticipantI experience that as well as extremely long boot times since I have so many games installed. If I attach my external hard drive the boot takes a few minutes and exiting emulationstation it takes forever to get to the 5 second prompt.
rdhanded2ParticipantInstalled and looks great. I like that you changed up the preview pics for the different versions of the same game such as USA/EURO/ASIA versions, etc so that it is not just the same pic repeated. I am a fan.
rdhanded2ParticipantI will give this a try tonight and let you know how it goes. Looking forward to it. Thanks!
rdhanded2ParticipantI have a question. I installed the files and when I select either shutdown or reboot I get permission denied. Probably something simple I am overlooking but and help is appreciated.
rdhanded2ParticipantThis is a pain because games such as Nintendo World Championships require the player 2 start button to start the game.
rdhanded2ParticipantThis pic is from severdhed of his build. I did similar and it works well for me.
rdhanded2ParticipantI saw another user one here who used a microswitch and a hair tie. I did that and it works great. I will find a pic that I have and post it.
rdhanded2ParticipantThat is a good idea
rdhanded2ParticipantI can’t answer your question but you can remote log into your pi through putty or something similar and you can read the text on your pc much easier. You can even log in with a smart phone.

rdhanded2ParticipantI would love to check these out if you get them uploaded.
rdhanded2ParticipantI have several extra sd cards. I am going to do another clean install on a new one. I will test the splash screen before and after I update the setup script.
rdhanded2ParticipantI am not sure what the fbi tool is but even the default splash screen did not display before I even touched anything other than updating the script.
rdhanded2ParticipantI am having the issue after a clean install of 3.2.1 and then just updating the retropie setup script. I can choose the splash screens from the retropie options menu but they do not show. I can add my own and select it but it does not show. I updated the splash screens but nothing. I made sure it was enabled as well. I disabled it and restarted then enabled it again and restarted. Still no splash screen.
Again, this was all after a clean install of 3.2.1 and an update. That is all that was done to the image.
rdhanded2ParticipantI am having the same issue. Happened as soon as I ran up updater. I posted already but have not heard anything yet.
rdhanded2ParticipantWhat do you have it encoded it, what is plugged into it, and what power supply are you using??
rdhanded2ParticipantThe red square means over-temperature. Your pi is overheating.
rdhanded2ParticipantIgnore, commented in wrong thread. Sorry

Some buttons like arcade buttons can be wired either way, some such as what you have can not. You stated that if you connect your button and run the script it resets immediately. That is because the button is closed and it is completing the circuit. To solve this you need a button that is open, and only completes the circuit when pressed.
I don’t know where you are located, but any electronics shop or radioshack type store should have a switch that will work or can order you one for a couple bucks. Ones like pictured below cost about $0.35 each when I buy them. Depending on where you are though, that might not be anywhere close.
Also, could possibly the script you are running be edited? I don’t know about python code or what you are using but you might be able to edit the code to use what you have now. Just a thought.
11/25/2015 at 16:55 in reply to: Playstation 1 running RetroPie – Making the reset switch work? #110685rdhanded2ParticipantBecause it is the wrong type switch for what you are wanting it to do and changing the switch is cheap, easy, and solves your problem.
11/25/2015 at 06:23 in reply to: Playstation 1 running RetroPie – Making the reset switch work? #110659rdhanded2ParticipantDo you need that whole board?
11/25/2015 at 06:22 in reply to: Playstation 1 running RetroPie – Making the reset switch work? #110658rdhanded2ParticipantFind a similar sized switch that you can solder in it’s place that is normally open. Then it will function how you want it to.
Buttons are either normally open or normally closed. Normally open is what an arcade uses so when you push the button, it completes the circuit and gives the desired effect. That is a normally closed button, so the circuit is always closed and when press it it opens the circuit and in that case resets the machine.
rdhanded2ParticipantI would be very interested in these for sure.
rdhanded2ParticipantI do use it, it just does not work on virtual boy and a couple others. Or at least it has not for me.
