Official recalbox 4.0.0 beta thread

[tiwacs]

pour un noob comme il se décrit,c’est juste parfait

Jusqu'au moment où, pour une raison inconnue, le système de fichier en 3.3b17 plante un grand coup et pouf ! recalbox cassée avec, et c'est bien normal, un énorme tas de questions angoissées d'utilisateurs qui veulent que ça marche, retrouver sauvegardes et config aux petits oignons... Et là je te dis pas comme ils apprécient de devoir en passer par des umount - fsck en SSH Définitivement non, la sensation de facilité n'est pas la facilité elle-même et le compromis qui consiste à lire la notice aujourd'hui n'est pas bien lourd en regard du temps gagné quand ça cassait. @Olivier :Pour du simple, lire le manuel et brancher une clé USB que tu pourras promener de ton PC à ton RPI, fin de l'histoire : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Use-an-external-usb-storage-device-on-recalbox-(EN)

Pas la peine de vous prendre la tête messieurs. J'ai trouvé la solution et cela marche. Merci à tous mais la prochaine fois au lieu de balançer un "lis la notice" , il serait plus judicieux de faire preuve d'un peu de pédagogie et d'une véritable aide  (un forum est fait pour cela messieurs les modos, entre autre); d'autant plus que vous avez tous fini par me répondre correctement. Maintenant en relisant la notice tout s'éclaire mais à la première lecture, c'est loin d'être aussi simple que certains veulent le laisser entendre, surtout pour un novice. Bref, je ne suis pas ici pour semer la zizanie, je vais découvrir de ce pas la joie du rétrogaming. Le véritable point final de cette histoire est maintenant.

Has anyone gotten the n64 games to run? I cant get any of them to run, all other emulators work perfect. Ive spend hours researching for a solution with no luck. When I select a game, the screen goes dark then comes right back to the menu. Ive played with the emulator options with no luck. Ive changed the video options in the recalbox.conf (n64.videomode) no luck there. In the mupen64 folder there are two ini files which I don't have permission to modify (GLideN64.custom.ini and GLideN64.ini). I use WinSCP to connect. Everyone on the web keeps talking about a file called (mupen64plus.cfg) but it looks like that file has changed with the new update. I lOVE recalbox and don't want to give up. please any help would be appreciate it, thank you!!

Hi @hogcia! Which version of recalbox are you using and how do you connect your Pi to your screen? HDMI? DVI? VGA? Are your games in big, or little endian? Which file extension do your games have? What Pi are you using? Have you tried this: https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/N64-%3A-sound-ok-but-black-screen-(EN) (even though I'm sure that this is not your problem)

[hogcia]

Hi, I will try that link, but the same n64 roms were working when I was using retropie, recalbox is soooo much better though. I have recalbox (V4.0.0-build-73 2016/04/19 00:25 ) and I connect via HDMI. n64 game are in .n64 format. Not sure what big or little endian mean, sorry kind of new here. thanks

That's strange, indeed @hogcia. Come to our IRC and we can help you way easier and faster: https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/#recalbox

OK! so I finally located the  problem on why my n64 games were not working. It has to do with my USB controllers. I have two different aftermarket USB wired controllers, when I have one plugged into my pie, the n64 games will not start, as soon as I unplug the controller from USB and load the game using my keyboard, the game starts fine. One controller is a two button NES and the other an SNES, like I said they are aftermarket but I am using a USB adapter with the SNES. Anyone have any idea what i can configure to fix this? thanks

[hogcia]

here are the controllers...

Hi @hogcia, I heard mupen64 doesn't launch if L and R buttons are not mapped, and they doesnt exist on NES controller. @subs, can you confirm that please?

[Guest]

Subs has confirmed that already in IRC yesterday @hogcia was present at the time, at least he was online.

[hogcia]

Yes that is correct, this is the reason why my n64 games were not loading, the L and R were not mapped, thanks for your help Nachtgarm. Also want to mention that cheap aftermarket/Chinese controllers will give you nothing but headaches. My only other issue is that I want to install a new theme under emulationstation/themes but I keep getting the error below when I try to drag my new theme folder into it: The file is on read-only media, or the media is write protected. Error code: 12 Error message from server (en): Read-only file system I did see something online on how to disable the protection but its not working, anyone have any Idea?

Sound in NES Roms is playing way to fast on Raspi 3. Tried all Cores.

My PCE CD games were working in Beta 3, as .bin only, but now they do not work in beta 4.  Only difference is I now have a pi 3 and had to reinstall everything, but moved same image over and now does not work.  Yes I put the syscard3 in the bios folder.  It is bold so I know it's there and is the correct one.

Strange, I have no problem with pc engine. because only iso with cue or bin with cue work fine.

RECALBOX - SYSTEM PCENGINE CD ## Put your pcengine cd roms in this directory. Rom files must have a ".pce/.cue/.ccd/.sgx" extension.

I have yet to get an .iso and .cue to work.  that is what all mine are, except for the 1 that works and that came .bin .cue.  I am putting them in the pcengine cd folder.  is that where everyone puts them?

[metzger130]

A little update, I was able to get .iso files to work, UNLESS they require the arcade card.  I have been trying to get Sapphire to work, as it worked on beta 3, but it is not working.  I put over non arcade cd game and it works.

**hello.**Pb de ratio d'image sur les jeux mame. Quelque soit le format d'image dans les paramètres même avec(ou sans) lintegrted scale... une idée ??

[metzger130]

I am trying to set up recalbox for multi cd playstation games.  I found a tutorial online but it is telling me to edit the es_system.cfg file and when I look for the file, it is not there.  did it move in version 4 over version 3?  also, do we still need to edit it or are multi discs natively supported now?
