is it possible for you to post an es_systems.cfg with the appropiate entries for the genesis emulator for the generic build?

ok figured out the bios delema it was a pretty easy but when scraping it gives me the following warning some of your selected systems do not have a platform set. Results may be even more inaccurate than usual

also one more question, having issures building the docker, im assuming thats needed for ps2 and such tried onece before and im having issues either that or i misplaced the bios files

one more question for you, where do the bios files for say psx need to be located, ive got them in the bios folder but on launch it still says they are missing.

sorry to bug with seemingly mundane questions had your competitors build pretty much figured out but made the switch due to lack to development and I must say its very polished. Keep up the good work, but is there a genesis emulator included or is that something that I need to add via retroarch.

was there an issue with rom scraping previously? currently when I attempt to scrape it spits something out at me but for the life of me cant remember what it actually says. I can look again if needed. Thanks in advance.

thanks

thanks so much for the more vanilla build, i can get it to boot but the next question ive got is probably pretty rudimentary. How do I enable my game pad to work in emulationstation? Thanks in advance.

looking to sftp some stuff over, but I cant seem to find the proper credentials. can someone point me in the right direction?

disregard

I am getting the system corruption message as well is there any way around this or should I just stick with retroplayer in vinilla kodi, miss being able to play ps2 on my machine.

Thanks for the tip, I can now limp along and I might be able to accomplish what I’m trying to do now 😊 Not gonna hold my breath on this getting fixed in their end but thanks none the less.

Yes it looks like it's somewhat broken... I haven't looked into it since it worked in the past and it only freezes once you clicked on the window of the welcome message. I guess it's a Retroarch bug and needs some fixing then But since it only works in non-KMS mode it's more of a gimmick than an important feature.

EDIT:
I guess I figured it out... the welcome screen implementation looks somewhat broken... because it locks the qt based menu while you technically could alt+tab back to XMB. Edit the file below in your Retroarch config folder, so copy paste, and try again if you're able to use WIMP.

Code: retroarch_qt.cfg

[General]
theme=dark
show_welcome_screen=false

In general you'll still run into trouble once a window or notification opens. Well maybe it's a Qt bug but most likely a Retroarch fault because other Qt based programs run fine.

Got a question for everyone when I bring up the retro arch Desktop GUI I am unable to navigate with a keyboard and mouse, I can see cursor movement but that’s about all I am able to get, mouse clicks are not registered and I am unable to navigate via the keyboard. I’ve tried numerous different keyboards and mice but yet still no dice. Do I have a driver set wrong? I’ve seen this issue on the retro arch forums but as of yet have been unable to find a solution. Thanks in advance.

Just curious, and I hope I don't come across as ungrateful but any idea as to when the April builds will be being updated? Thanks for all your hard work on this absolutely outstanding project. I love it!

Am I correct in assuming one cannot simply upgrade to the testing version? And keep for example my ROMS they are stored locally on that machine.

ok sounds good

You have to manually download & update. Maybe I'll add a testing repo later too

Do I need special permissions to grab the test builds and kick the tires? Kodi is telling me that the custom update url is invalid or not accessible
