EmuELEC: Retro Emulation Kodi Addon for CoreELEC!

Ok … on weekend i set my other 905x
Thx :+1::grinning:

Hi, on 905x no problems! Thx :+1:

Hallo,
Is ist possible to use my SD Card for Roms folder?
I installed CoreELEC on internal Storage.

All my retropie Roms are on the SD Card!

Second question: is it possible to add „dosbox“?

hi, above (first page) is the explanation to your question. You can put your roms on any external device… as you read this: „

but If you want to use an external HDD or a USB for your ROMS, make a directory called “roms” in the root of the USB device, then inside create an empty file called sx05reroms , place your ROMS inside the corresponding folder (nes, snes, etc, etc.) then with the device plugged start the add-on.“

Okay :slight_smile: it only says USB and HDD
I give it a try

I am not sure where the SD card gets mounted. if it gets mounted under /media then you can follow the same instructions, if not, I might need to change the mounting script.

okay from SD Card it works, only problem is that i must insert it after boot.

SD Card is mount to media :slight_smile:

other Question, were the hell is emustation here safe the pictures?.
on my sd card i got all pictures for the games
in “.emulationstation/downloaded_images”

but here i dont know were

i dont know if you compile it self.

but i got some Problem with PSX emulator:

on retropie Sonic CD is working

There seems to be a patch in the works for PSX.

Sega CD I knew about, Picodrive had a bug that I already fixed, but I need to upload a new version, will try to do it soon.

I made so many changes to the core that the add-on script needs to be updated :confused: and since its only me working on all of this, it could take some time, sorry.

I can try and upload the compiled cores with those fixes and see if it works for you.

I don’t think I understand what you mean, do you mean scraper images? those will always go to

/storage/.emulationstation/downloaded_images

or inside the roms folder

/storage/roms/[system]/downloaded_images

but I honestly don’t use the scraper included in ES as it doesn’t work 50% of the time.

Thanks :slight_smile:

It worked now with the picons.

In .emulationstation/gamelist
I copy it from Retropie and it works :slight_smile:

Hello Friend, Your setup is amazing, thank you very much for everything, just a quick question, do you know how I can set up the controllers for the ppsspp emulator? I mean, it works great but after I restart the system all the settings get lost, I need to install or setup the controller again

It should automatically save it to /storage/.config/ppsspp/PSP/SYSTEM/ppsspp.ini

does that file exists?

logs would be helpful

by the way, i testet my PS3 Controller (bluetooth) but without your pre config it doesn’t work for me.:confused:

and
Thanks you very much” for this Plugin. I uses my raspi for an Magic Mirror and saw your Plugin :slight_smile:
all i need on one Machine :slight_smile:

Thanks !!!

hi, is it possible to add “drastic” ?
it an Nintendo 2DS Emulator :slight_smile:

Unfortunately no, Drastic is closed source and the version that exists for Raspberry Pi only works on Raspberry pi and was compiled by the author. Unless you can convince the author to compile version that works for Amlogic (or Gles2 in general) I don’t see it happening.

Mhh okay :slight_smile:
Thanks. I just wait for the segacd and psx large file Patch. And it is Perfect for me :slight_smile:

Although it seems this version MIGHT work , but I won’t include it unless I get proper permission to do so

you can try it yourself if you extract it using samba and test it by SSH

https://github.com/Retro-Arena/binaries/blob/master/odroid-xu4/drastic.tar.gz

if you don’t know how to, I can test it later.

I will give it a try :slight_smile:
I‘m Linux specialist :wink:

PS3 NEEDS the workaround (EmuELEC: Retro Emulation Kodi Addon for CoreELEC!) , there is no other way (at the moment) to make it work on ES+RetroArch, I am more than happy to implement any ideas or fixes if other people provide them, but I won’t try to fix it myself anymore as it requires a lot of time I don’t really have right now.
