ParticipantOff.
zerojay
ParticipantYou probably aren’t overclocking or aren’t using the same settings. I can confirm that Megaman Powered Up runs super smoothly here, for instance.
zerojay
ParticipantSee the wiki page posted above.

ParticipantX86 is 32-bit, generally. amd64 or x86-64 is normally the 64-bit versions. X11 is a standard for graphical servers, drawing windows on screen, etc…
zerojay
ParticipantNo idea. You’ll have to ask the guys at RetroAchievements.
zerojay
ParticipantYou need to match your ROMs to the version of MAME being used and verify your ROMs using the DAT files provider.
zerojay
ParticipantDonkey Kong runs fine, you just aren’t using a ROM that matches the version of MAME being used.
zerojay
ParticipantThe Raspberry Pi filesystems are case sensitive. SCPH1001.BIN is not the same as SCPH1001.BiN for instance. Set the BIOS name to SCPH1001.BIN and it should work provided your images are good.
zerojay
ParticipantMake sure you do not turn the volume up to 100% in the Midway games or you will definitely get crackling. Keep it to 80-90% at most.
zerojay
ParticipantWe will need more info than you’ve provided to help you with that.
zerojay
ParticipantMount your USB stick to the standard roms directory.

ParticipantI just switched my RetroPie installation over to a hard drive and I’m no longer getting the pauses at all.
zerojay
ParticipantRun “free” and see if swap is getting hit hard.
zerojay
ParticipantThat’s entirely dependant upon the emulators being used. You’re best to take a look at if the various Retropie cores do, but I suspect they do not.

ParticipantA fresh install of Retropie 3.5 already should have Kodi installed to my knowledge and it is also based upon Jessie, not Wheezy, so Wheezy packages will not generally work with Jessie.
zerojay
ParticipantI believe if you are using Retroarch, there is a command in its menu for switching disks.
zerojay
ParticipantNormal behavior on the original machines as well.
zerojay
ParticipantThe main kodi directory is /home/pi/.kodi/ and I believe you may find the plugins directory under userdata.
Directories that start with a . are hidden by default, by the way but you’ll still be able to change directories into it.
cd /home/pi/.kodi/
zerojay
ParticipantYou do not have RetroPie installed. You are using Raspbian. Start by using the Retropie sd card image.
zerojay
ParticipantA question for you: Why do you want to replace it? Is the emulator actually better than the one included in Retropie? If so, you should let us know by filing a bug report and we’ll then replace it with the better emulator if it’s the case and we can get it working.
As for how to replace it yourself, it depends entirely upon where it comes from. If it’s in the Raspbian repositories, you could probably apt-get install it yourself. I’ll bet that uae4all will come back once you run a binary update. I guess you could uninstall it and then symlink uae4all2 to uae4all as well so that Retropie actually runs the second one instead. Hope they have compatible command lines or else that won’t work.
zerojay
ParticipantThat’s odd because almost everything in RetroPie-Setup is done using Dialog so…
zerojay
ParticipantN64 is hit or miss. Some games work well, some games do not. Some games work well with certain options enabled or under a different emulator, some do not.
zerojay
ParticipantCheck permissions on the files to make sure the emulator can read them.
zerojay
ParticipantPull request: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/1270
And it’s now integrated into RetroPie-Setup. Update the script and then you can build it from the experimental menu. Let us know how it goes for you.
We’re looking into building a dialog box to allow you to set your username/pass and enable/disable achievements in the RetroPie-Setup menu. Hopefully we’ll have something soonish.
zerojay
ParticipantThe instructions had a lot of issues but I was able to get the core working as well as earn achievements. I’ll submit a pull request to the repo soon.
zerojay
ParticipantI’ll give it a shot. If it works and the achievements work as well, I’ll submit a bug/pull request for it.
zerojay
ParticipantAnd there is no quicknes core for retropie at this point.
zerojay
ParticipantIt worked for me quite well so far with SNES games. My only issue is that there’s no switch to enable hardcore mode (disables the use of savestates and other cheats) so even though I’m not using savestates, I just get the regular achievement and not the hardcore version. :/
02/15/2016 at 18:37 in reply to: (Dragon's Lair, Space Ace, etc.) Anyone interested in Daphne laserdisc system? #117103zerojay
ParticipantI pinged Rookervik and he’ll be updating his themes as well to add Daphne. While I’m not personally very interested in these, I’m glad to have something else to add to Retropie. :)
That Monaco GP simulator is interesting however as far as I can tell, it’s only for Windows.
zerojay
ParticipantExtremely few games use splines or Bezier curves, so the recommendation to use “spline/Bezier quality = low” isn’t really worthwhile. About the only game I can think of that uses them are the Loco Roco games and they play fast enough with them set to defaults. Setting it to low won’t give them a speedup and will just make the game look horrific as almost everything is rendered with Bezier curves.
zerojay
ParticipantBeats of Rage is *NOT* remotely the same thing as Streets of Rage Remake. It is an engine for making side scrolling beat-em-ups but was not used in SoRR. SoRR does not have a Linux build for ARM platforms and therefore cannot be played on the Pi unless someone releases source code which isn’t happening.

Participant[quote=113857]
sudo chown pi:pi home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/kodi.sh
[/quote]
This isn’t going to work unless he is currently in the / directory. So either cd / first before typing it in or use the following:
sudo chown pi:pi /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/kodi.sh
zerojay
ParticipantCan you post your lr-ppsspp and ppsspp settings so that we can try to reproduce what you’re seeing?
