Feature Requests: What do you want to see in PiPlay?
No, sorry @kristoffer55. It will never happen. The ps3 is way to powerful to emulate on something like a raspberry pi.

contoller problem
If I remember correctly, there was a bug with fceux (the nintendo emulator). You had to run the emulator once to create the proper folders/files, then run the controller config. So try running it again for the nes and see what happens.

Delete roms
oh sorry, was this not a riddle? I don't really use the web interface much, but I think that there is a way to select and delete a rom. I personally prefer using an ftp. it lets you see all of your files and delete them just like you would in …

Arcade Inputs
@Bender- I just had a thought. Make sure that you reboot your raspberry-pi. Running ./retrogame and then quitting it, kills the background process for me. I have to reboot before it runs again.

...They do move the the keyboard inputs though. Do you mean that when you test it in command line, it actually outputs the correct buttons? Did you run the controller config utility inside of PiPlay? (hit the tab key on the main menu, then select …

Mapping xin-mo arcade buttons to exit to pimame menu.
yeah, I'm "working" on it right now. The quotes are because I was working on it and got distracted optimizing (it should be done by tonight though)

Feature Requests: What do you want to see in PiPlay?
@lateo, I just worked in a fix for the controller sensitivity issue that you are having. It should be available in the next update, or you can grab it off of my repo. The only files that need to be updated are pimame-menu/controller.yaml and pimame-…

I can add a multipress option to the menu. I had already worked in a keyboard version, that we just never ended up using.

Same ROM folder for Mame4All and AdvMAME?
you use it on your computer. Check out the FAQ section on these forums. I posted a link that should get you started (the user interface is atrocious)

The Sanwa brand is what a lot of pro's go for. I have a friend that makes pro arcade sticks for fighting tournaments, he swears by them.

0.8.5 Update issues - Menu and Segmentation fault
That means that you made changes to the same bits of code that the update also changed. So it keeps both changes in the file but requires the user to make a choice between them (delete or comment out the other). I would double check your the neo geo…

MAME4All not found
make sure that you ran the mame installer first. And I accidentally left a part out, it should be ln -s /home/pi/pimame/roms/mame4all /home/pi/pimame/emulators/mame4all-pi/roms

I would recommend running clrmamepro to separate out your romsets.

MAME4All not found
This is a known bug that will be fixed in the next update. In the meantime, you can fix it by creating a symbolic link in the command line. type this: ln /home/pi/pimame/roms/mame4all /home/pi/pimame/emulators/mame4all-pi/romsThis will create a …

I'm not 100% sure, as I have not tested this. But I would think something like this for mame4all: - label: MsPacMan visible: Yes full_path: no command: /home/pi/pimame/emulators/mame4all-pi/mame mspacman override_menu: yes …

A few issues with PiPLAY 0.8.5
@kenno124510 - Most of the answers to your questions are floating around on the forums here. As for re-arranging the order of the emulators, you will probably need to turn off both 'abc order' and 'show emulators with roms first'…
