Very nice looking! Is that a kit or did you do the whole thing from scratch?

No internet connection to install Mame
It's been a while since I ran into this, but I think that it's an old problem where the original repo was stored with code.google.com (which has since closed). Try replacing the mame_install.py file with this one: https://raw.githubusercon…

2 USB ports, how do I set controls for two xbox controllers?
pressing 'button3' on any usb gamepad will open the menu as well. Xbox controllers need to be set up by first activating them on the main menu ('enable xbox controller') and then you'll also need to edit '/home/pi/pimam…

Problem with Keyboard in Piplay menu
Piplay can use either joysticks or keyboards to navigate the the menu. That sdl_joystickGetAxis message is generated by pygame (the underlying codebase of piplay) whenever it receives joystick information from the system. The main desktop gui and co…

PS4 Controller
if you use it wired as a usb, then you can. Otherwise, I'm not entirely sure. I know I saw a github repo a while back that was working on it, not sure if they ever got it working or not.

Cannot open /home/pi/pimame/config/piplay-sound.state for reading: No such file or directory
I believe that there is an error using the mouse in this version. It's been a while since this version released, but I think that someone else had pointed it out early on. you may try just using a keyboard and I'll look into it more when I…

GPioneer - A side project compatible with PiPlay
it's just the number portion of the pins labeled gpio#. I guess that it's based on the Broadcom Soc Channels, but that's about the extent on my knowledge about that. :D

Pi2 / N64
it's worth upgrading if you want to play n64. We haven't officially added n64 yet, but there's nothing stopping you from manually adding it.

Problem with my joysticks
I think that the version of pisnes that got packed into the latest version of piplay was the old version that didn't have xin-mo support. grab this build. Unzip the file and copy/replace the snes9x file to /home/pi/pimame/emulators/pisnes. That…

NES emulator laggy
are you making sure that piplay is not being run from inside the desktop? in Raspi-config, did you expand your filesystem? Also try changing your memory split in raspi-config. If you are running a pi1 set it to either 64 or 128, if you are running a…
