Running 4.1 on a Pi Zero W with a SNES30 gamepad running the latest firmware (4.1).

The bluetooth screen kept causing a crash in Recalbox, so I paired my controlled manually using the instructions at https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Connect-bluetooth-controller-manually-(EN)

This worked until I reboot the Pi. After that the controller wouldn't reconnect. Turned the controlled off and on, etc. If I SSH to the Pi, open bluetoothctl and tell it to connect there (connect followed by the MAC address of the gamepad) it connects right away.

Next reboot, same issue. It's like it's not initiating a connection - I have to tell it to connect manually now.

Any ideas / suggestions?

@acris Yes! There was a USB controller I didn't realize was still hooked up!

I have this same issue. rPi3 running 4.0b5. Can't get any N64 games to run.

TV supports DMT4, 6 and 9 and CEA1, but setting any of them explicitly doesn't make a difference. Running uncompressed roms, even tried from different sources.

Support file can be found here.

@stevex59 At this point I am giving up on getting Rampage working on my Pi3 Recalbox. Doesn't seem to be good ROMs out there. I have the original invaders.zip now working with samples, but not color. Got a pacman working.

@Nachtgarm said in iMame4All in 4.0.0 with rPi3:

Which Versions of the games are you trying to run? Zip-Name?

I was able to get invaders.zip to run, but with no color or sound.

I have tried:

rampage.zip
rampage2.zip (the 1.2 version of Rampage)
pacmanm.zip (midway pacman)
sicv.zip (color space invaders)

With no success.

@Nachtgarm Because several "classic" (i.e. older) games don't seem to want to run with 0.78. The original Pac Man, Space Invaders and Rampage are three specifically I am working on.

On https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Advanced-Arcade-on-Recalbox-(EN) it says:

"imame4all is recommended for older games that does not run in piFBA"

So I assumed it's because the games are too old for more current emulators? Maybe I'm wrong?

@Nachtgarm The 0.78 ROMs from the compatible list ARE working. It's the iMame4All roms that are not.

And I have done a scan of these using clrmamepro against the iMame4All 0.37b5 DAT. It shows that I am missing none of the expected ROMs.

@voljega It comes from /recalbox/share/roms/mame/clrmamepro/imame4all_gamelist.txt as referenced in the "Advanced Arcade on Recalbox" wiki article at https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Advanced-Arcade-on-Recalbox-(EN)

I've tried these same specific ROMs from the 0.78 set and they don't work. That's why I'm working with iMame4All and the Mame0.37b5Roms set as referenced in the wiki article above.

@voljega well they are from Mame0.37b5Roms and all on the imame4all_gamelist.txt file so other than that how would I know? And they are in a folder with all of the BIOS files listed for Mame (acpsx.zip, cpzn1.zip, cpzn2.zip, cvs.zip, decocass.zip, konamigx.zip, megaplay.zip, megatech.zip, neogeo.zip, nss.zip, pgm.zip, playch10.zip, skns.zip, stvbios.zip, taitofx1.zip, tps.zip)

Is there a different BIOS file for iMame4All?

Ah - I missed that you have to set the emulator to libretro before you can select the iMame4All core.

Ok, now that is done, new problems. Anything I try either freezes up within moments of playing or starts directly to the Retroarch menu saying "Device #0 (sdl2) disconnected".

I've tried:

rampage.zip
rampage2.zip
pacmanm.zip
sicv.zip

All from Mame0.37b5Roms and all on the imame4all_gamelist.txt.

Does iMame4All not work with the Pi 3?
