Official recalbox 4.0.0 beta thread

[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?

[Guest]

Hi @rob. The es_systems is located in /recalbox/share_init/system/.emulationstation/ To which tutorial are you referring to?

[Guest]

Hey @Metzger130. No need to edit the es_systems.cfg The ".pbp .PBP" are present in it already and to swap discs, without having them as pbp file, needs a little adjustement in retroarch (as described in the Tutorial, which needs an overhauling), but I recommend the pbp method, since it's working like a charm.

Bonjour, Petite question. Lorsque l'on upgrade d'une beta à une autre, toutes la configuration n'est pas conservé ? Je suppose que certains fichiers de config sont remis à zéro ? Je pense particulièrement au fichier smb.conf Du coup avant de passer à la dernière beta je dois sauvegarder quels fichiers ?
