I was able to fix giving admin rights to RetroFE. Now the program can access the emulators correctly. Thank you.

General Discussion & Help / Error cache ?

Hi guys.

Retrofe has some type of error cache ? There's a way to clean it ?

I'm asking this, because once in a while, no emulator starts. Everything is normal, with nothing modified, and when you open the frontend, no emulator works. Someone with similar problem?

Here's the log (I tried to send by pm or email but I did not find the option to link the log). Thanks.

EDIT: I just solved the problem. The folders in my emulators contained the # character at the beginning. Example: # Sega Genesis. Then I imagined that the program, reading this character, stopped there. I removed the character and now the game runs. This is a tip if you can change the code to work around similar problems.

I don't have a Xbox One controller but I do have an Xbox 360 controller. For that you use

up = joyXHat0Up
down = joyXHat0Down
left = joyXHat0Left
right = joyXHat0Right

where X is the joypad number. If this is the only one plugged in then this will be 0.

To get the button numbers for the rest of the controls go to the Windows Control Panel -> Devices and Printers. Right click the Xbox controller icon,  select 'Game Controller Settings'. In the 'Game Controllers' window highlight the Xbox controller then click properties.

A window will open up with all the Xbox controller pad and button settings. When you press a button on the controller, the button number should light up red inside the settings window. On the 360 controller button A=1.
In the controls config file for RetroFE minus 1 off that number.

So if you want Button A to be 'Select' then use:-

select = joyXButton0

Again, where X is the joypad number. If this is the only one plugged in then this will be 0.

I hope this helps, I think I have confused myself!

Thanks man. My problem was the Dpad,  now works fine.

Ok. Thank you.

The only collection that works is the Sega Genesis, which already comes with a game.

EDIT: I'm getting it fixed, now I'm trying to link the Roms to the emulators.

A doubt, in the games part, how I edit that part where it places the category, number of players, etc. Thanks.

This issue deserves its own thread next time; it's not very theme related. :) I will answer your questions though:
- If RetroFE closes unexpectedly, you can usually find the reason in the log.txt file. It's more often than not an incorrectly defined collection, though I really should consider not crashing on them.
- If you add new information to the XML files, you need to remove meta.db so RetroFE can add the information. I still plan on adding an automatic date check so RetroFE can do that by itself, but for now you'll have to delete it manually.

Thank you. Yesterday I was able to solve it. My problem is to be able to edit the game information in the theme, like in the image I sent above. And also loading some game, I point to where the emulator is but it does not start.

Thank you. I was trying to set up in FE itself. I will use external software.

I was able to map buttons A and B, but I could not map Dpad.

Hi friends. I'm trying to setup my Xone joystick to use with RetroFE but it's not working. Is the Wireless Windows version. Any help ? Thanks.

I do not know if I explained it correctly. I've added new roms, and the fields where the category is placed, number of players, year, are empty. I just want to put this information. I sent you an image for you to see. Thank you.

Good job, it's a cool theme.

I'm using it at the moment, however I have a problem. I created some collections and made some images. Collections load normally at first, but when entering the games part, the program closes.

When entering the standard collection (Sega genesis), it works normally.

Any tip? Thanks.
