Hello there!

Thank you hipp0 for the great work. 

I’ve installed your image in my RasPi 4 8gb flawlessly, but after getting in the boot (incredibly fast, btw) I’ve wanted to set up the controller.

Edit:

Ok, thanks to this page in Batocera’s web, I’ve figured it out, so I let my post as a info, for all the people with XBOne controllers:

sorted audio , my son hit a button , just one more thing i need to know  the mapping for psp emu seems all wrong when i use d pad to move it is like the actual action buttons x,o,square triangle have been mapped to d pad , is there a way to re map just the psp emulaotr many thx.

I put this image on a 512 gb card in hopes of adding more roms.  However, I can’t seem to expand the card to its maximum size.  Any idea how to do this?

This is not a retropie image.  It is a batocera image.  These instructions only work for retropie.

I listened to all the feedback from the first one and made a lot of changes to the second release. This time I wanted to focus on all the systems your more likely going to play vs the complicated older systems that didn’t work that well (primarily Commodore/X81/).

Removed clutter & games that weren’t working, and organized the games better. Also I pishrunk the image from 238 gigs down to 222 gigs so that every 256 gig card should work now!

*Updated BIOS for different systems if you wanted to add your own system.

*PDF support added (you can scrape your favorite game manuals)

*Batocera manual, and game manuals. Press the option button to view game manuals!

Help:

*If Wifi isn’t working try plugging directly into your router to help wake up the wifi and it should work. 

* To change your time follow this guide: https://wiki.batocera.org/timezone#:~:text=Starting%20with%20Batocera%2031%2C%20you,hour%20format%20if%20you%20want.

*If your having trouble getting a bluetooth controller working: https://wiki.batocera.org/bluetooth_controllers_-_manual_setup

———————————————————————————————————————————————————

Bonus:

* There is a comics folder if you SSH into the PI (default login/pass root/linux *I recommend changing the default password so you don’t get hacked) Recommend FILEZILLA for SSH https://filezilla-project.org/

———————————————————————————————————————————————————

Final thoughts:

*Tested on Pi 4gb/8gb & someone mentioned it worked on pi 400 haven’t personally tested.

*If a  game doesn’t work well, make a list of games you come across, so that future releases can be improved. Many of the systems were fixed like Amiga 1200, Amiga CD32, Sega CD, NEO-GEO CD by converting from bin/cue/iso to chds

*Retro Pirate Box 1 will no longer be seeded as this one is much better and has pretty much everything the first one had. I encourage everyone to try to make a better version using my base/bios/roms and let me know if you do. I am not great when it comes to getting MAME, MUGEN, SCUMMVM, or that new HALF-LIFE mod emulator running. So if anyone can figure that out that would be cool!

*I noticed one mistake where there were a couple duplicates in the NDS folder, so if you SSH its just about 2 dozen games that are duplicates that can easily be cleaned up if you have OCD like me. So the official NDS count is 290. Basically delete the (U) and leave the (E) version. To fix this mistake would of taken me all day of copying back and forth and didn’t want to delay this release.

also trying to download 3 but no luck.
managed to get the other one working, i see there is files for the atari jaguar but cant get them on the system?

Hi Hipp0

I downloaded both v2 and v3 versions but none is working, i have a RasPI 4 8gb but only got checksum invalid messages

I’m not used to linux OS, i don’t know how to try to solve it, can you give me suggestions?

Thank you!

Thanks for the reply,

i used a Samsung EVO plus 256Gb card, and tried to flash either with Etcher and Win32diskimager 

Edit: nevermind, just seen version 3 😀

Hi hipp0! This image is fantastic, great job!

I only have an issue with the neogeo emulation, since no game is working right now. I tried adding the missing neogeo.zip that was in the bios folder instead of neogeo rom folder, but no luck.

I am using a pi400, and it’s the only system that doesn’t work.

Any advice?

Thanks a lot for your help
