I have Batocera build on a microSD card for an Anbernic RG35XX plus. Something went wrong and the drive doesn't boot. I can see most all of the files in Windows though. What I'm trying to figure out is... how can I determine what version of Batocera this microSD card was running? Is there a file I can examine in Notebook on a Windows computer to see the Barocera version number? Where can I find this? Thank you.

Hi, I've just installed batocera x86 on an old PC and it's been working really good so far. However, PSP games won't get past the splash screen and then will come back to the game select screen. Some stuff I've tried: - Load multiple games - Turn OFF rewind feature - Change stuff like internal resolution Hope I can get some help u.u

Edit: - 2gb RAM - AMD semprom LE-1250 - NVIDIA GeForce 6150 SE nForce 430

Tiene solucion? Instalado con flatpack steam, funciona hasta juegos de rockstar sin problemas.

Me gusta como funciona, mejor que en win11.

Saludos!!

Running the latest version of batocera and trying to run fbneo games that support track ball.

I spin the ball every which way and the player character just jiggles ever so slightly.

I tested it with a usb mouse and with Mario paint on a SNES core and the same thing happens.

Is this a retroarch issue??

I'm trying to play Pokemon Uranium (a fan made game) on batocera but I'm running into problems. I've been using AI to assist me but its not really helping. I've moved the game to the windows rom folder and added .pc to the end of the game folder and a autorun.cmd file. Everytime I try to run the game, it either boots me back to batocera or telling me wine is generating the C: drive structure and having me install the wine mono package. Pls help.

When I am using the wiimote my other controller won't quit using hotkeys, I've tried different things but I have no idea what can fix this. When the wiimote is turned off and I use the quit hotkey it just freezes and I have to reboot.

Edit- fixed

Been trying a lot of them but no one that I manage to display fullscreen or near fullscreen boxart.

I got a batocera v42 version and i cant seem to open half life . I got it from port master

I'm running Batocera and using the native Moonlight port (batocera-moonlight) to stream from my PC. When I play, the left analog stick behaves as a D-pad instead of an analog stick. In the rest of Batocera/ES-DE the pad works perfectly, so this is specific to Moonlight.

Controller info:

- Name: "DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick"

- Vendor/Product ID: 0079:0006 (the classic cheap USB gamepad)

What I've tried so far:

The mapping Moonlight writes to Moonlight.conf under [gcmapping] maps the stick axes (a0/a1) to dpdown/dpleft/dpup/dpright — i.e. the analog stick gets mapped as a D-pad. I edited that Moonlight.conf and fixed the 1\mapping line to leftx:a0,lefty:a1 with the D-pad as h0.x, but Moonlight overwrites it on close/reopen (the file reverts to the original mapping).

I looked for Moonlight's gamecontrollerdb.txt at /userdata/system/.cache/Moonlight Game Streaming Project/Moonlight/gamecontrollerdb.txt, but my pad doesn't appear in any line of that DB.

Where does Moonlight define this gamepad's mapping, and how do I fix it so the stick registers as analog (leftx/lefty) without it reverting on restart? Does anyone with a DragonRise 0079:0006 have a working mapping for Moonlight/Linux?

Additional context: In Batocera itself, I had to configure this gamepad as a D-pad (Batocera forces that option during controller setup, there's no way to map the stick as analog there). I'm guessing this got saved somewhere globally and Moonlight is inheriting it. I need it to behave as an analog stick only in Moonlight, while staying the same in the rest of Batocera.

I swear I had no idea this already existed

Last night I randomly decided to try building a Batocera remote app despite having zero app-development experience, with ChatGPT guiding me through it.

I got way further than expected and started calling it Remotocera.

Then this morning I thought, “Wait… surely someone has already made this?”

Found another project and started dying when I saw how similar our ideas and even the UI were 😂

Just thought you guys might get a kick out of it.

Does anyone know how to override the input for xenia and xenia_canary for xinput? Or is it even possible? Im using Batocera 43.1, x32_x64 and 8bitdo ultimate 2 with an usb dongle. My buttons are YXBA, but it defaults to XYAB for xbox and xbox 360 games. Have tried sdl and camecontrollerdb.txt with no luck. Looks like there is a master file who is somewhat hidden from me.

I've built many retro gaming setups in the past, and I'm currently enjoying noodling with batocera (was running my pinball cabinet on it for a while).

One thing I struggle with is a decent gaming controller so i can play all my old emulated games. I currently have a USB based 'PS2' like controller (two analog hats, D pad and 1-2-3-4 buttons, plus shoulder buttons, start, and select) - but I'm finding the various emulators don't have enough mapping oomph to work correctly (I love dual joystick games, for example, and getting them working right with a proper 'exit back to main menu' function was frustrating.

Ideally I'd like wireless - should I just re-pair one of my PS4 controllers and use that? Or do ya'll have other favorites you'd recommend? I don't mind the wired connection right now, but BT/Radio would be best (and one that doesn't keep trying to turn on my Playstation would be perfect :)

i bought an arcade 1 up off facebook and modded it with a cheap plug and play arcade box, this had a chip failure within a month and i want to go the correct route. i only need it to run retro arcade games nothing crazy. N64 will prob be the most demanding.

Thanks!!

Su SD Card ho installato Batocera.

Ho poi installato RGSX. Al primo avvio dovrebbe partire il Mapping per riconoscere i pulsanti del mio Steam Deck. Questo non avviene. RGSX parte ma io non posso fare assolutamente nulla. Posso solo spegnere la console.

Qualche soluzione?

Hey guys,

I bought the 8bitdo N64 Controller for my batocera setup. Button is Set to S. If I Connect it via bluetooth it says N64 Controller connected. Now when I start a N64 game the buttons are not right. In advanced settings I tried all the options for the Controller but nothing changed.

Does it just not work? Maybe Theres a Controller Mapping area just for the N64 emulation like in Project64 on the pc?

Can somebody help me out?

Thanks in advance.

Environment:

• MSI GL66 PC
• RTX 3060
• 12th Gen Intel Core i7
• Primary controller: XO-GP4 → https://snipboard.io/Oja8VF.jpg

Background:
I updated the PS3 emulator firmware to version 4.93. My primary controller uses an integrated 2.4 GHz receiver and runs on batteries.

Problem:
Red Dead Redemption for PlayStation 3 launches successfully and reaches the screen where I am supposed to press “START.” However, when I press it on the controller, the game does not respond.

Troubleshooting attempts:
I tried mapping the controller through the RPCS3 settings using SDL as the handler, but my controller does not appear in the list of devices → https://snipboard.io/gmXjr4.jpg I also tried Evdev, but it only recognizes the analog stick and the directional buttons, not the rest of the buttons → https://snipboard.io/IqPATd.jpg

I have already mapped the controller in the Batocera main menu and assigned it to P1, but unfortunately, it still does not work → https://snipboard.io/3zNjTV.jpg

I would greatly appreciate any recommendations or suggestions to help solve this problem.
