@oyyodams Thanks! Really good news!

[Goden57]

Thnx, updated on Pi3b+
Niceeee

[williamperri]

I added a RaspBerry PI3 B + ... I found in the Forum that the image is still in Beta. I installed the image on PI3B+ and it worked for a few days. I did an upgrade suggested by RECALBOX, but after that the Operating System did not initialize ... I refined the image with BUILD 28566561, but none of the games (nor the natives coming with the image) do not start ... Could someone help me, for know where the LOGs are so I can investigate?

@williamperri : At the end of the first message : beware : after install the beta, no updates !

[williamperri]

@oldgreg I am new user from RaspBerry... and Recalbox... You know if have another old builds to RaspBerry PI3b+? I will try with anothers builds... Because, in this build (2018-08-23) any roms start :(... Thanks.

[OyyoDams]

@williamperri first remap your pads, then if it still doesn't work, post a support archive.

Hello,

Fresh installation of 11/12/2018 beta with the p3+ link yesterday. I am using recalbox on sd card 16go and usb key sandisk256go / system parameter on any external source.

1. virtual keyboard to fullfill wifi key does not appears.
   Impossible to set the wifi without keyboard.

2. kintaro ursus scripts to pilot safe stop + reset button + fans not integrated

So far, emulation is ok. Extrem overclock 1500mhz works.
Still testing.

Thank you guys for your hardwork and dedication in making us happy.

Regards

3. Gamepad loss while entering in retroarch. The gamepad (sfc30pro) works on emulation station interface but the inputs are not communicated to retroarch. You have to reinitiate the system manually

[OyyoDams]

@vdeolive about the virtual keyboard: known issue, just go back and enter again, the virtual keyboard will appear.

I've played with a sf30pro yesterday on the latest build without any issue. Be sure to reconfigure the mapping.

Thanks for the 11/12/2018 update. These are the issues I've run into so far:

• Controller setup glitches with genuine Sony PS3 six axis controller once you get to the trigger buttons. It's working fine in the stable release and one of the reasons I switched to Recalbox.

• Atari ST .ipf images in compressed .zip still no longer work and just return to menu like with previous test versions. Stable version works fine.

[mi7chy]

Added some additional roms and after updating game list through Start menu it's been stuck at "PLEASE WAIT" on Recalbox Emulation Station white screen. Can ping the IP but can no longer SSH into it to do proper restart. Updated from stable release 18.07.13.

Hi !
I'm using recalbox rpi3 12/11/2018 beta (4ad393af) on a Rpi3B+,
OS is runing, but can't launch any game ( game build in ) . Black screen and go back menu.
Kodi not running black screen ...

[OldGreg]

@guy-don : Have you remap your gamepad after upgrade ? It's the solution, most of the time...

[vdeolive]

Hello,

To be more precise i am playing with bluetooth dongle (i've bought the recommanded one on your shop) in order to reduce input lag. Sfc30pro is updated on last firmware from 8bitdo.

The sfc30pro is recognised and i can configure it.
It works on emulation station but when you enter retroarch, pad is not recognised anymore. I have tried several times to forgot the pad and reconfigure it but still same issue. Pad connected with cable works.
Only with bt, gamepad is lost on retroarch.

Any idea?

Thanks

[OyyoDams]

@vdeolive my latest test was with internal BT of the B+. I'll make a test with the BT dongle and check if it works.

@OyyoDams

For me, the new version of the beta doesn't solve the bluetooth pad (SF30pro, fireware updated) issues, without dongle :
_ deconnexion from ES to retroarch. Sometimes, waiting several minute allow the reconnexion of the pad.
_ some L2/R2 issues

remapping the pad doesn't solve the problem, but USB-C connexion does.

Maybe "retroarch input driver" in config could solve this issue ?

Thanks for the update. wondering if HDMI to dvi is fully implemented, coz i tested on my old 19" 4/3 screen, and it just vent black. tested on my newer 24" also over dvi, no problem there.

@OyyoDams

I tried the overlock using Extrem mode.

Recalbox OS (not only ES) crash after several second each time (and I need to make an "hard restart" by unplug my Pi).
