![]() Reboot your GPi Case and you should see Pico-8 on the menu.(This image is included in the latest version of the theme already, you can also just update the theme) Save this image as system.png and copy it to the /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/themes/Super-Retroboy/pico8 folder. If you are using that theme, here is the image I used for mine. For the Super-Retroboy theme, the only thing it uses is a custom system.png image for the logo you see on the main Emulationstation menu.Once you find your theme, copy an existing system folder and name it pico8:./opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/themes.Try looking for your theme in the following: Themes can be found in a few locations.The easiest way I found to do this is to (1) find the theme and then (2) copy a system folder that already exists and rename the copy to be pico8 and then (3) replace whatever images that are used with the them with Pico-8 images.įor my example, I’m using the Super-Retroboy theme. Depending on which theme you are using, you will need to add the graphic and any configuration file needed by the theme. You should have something that looks similar to the following:.SH /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 "/home/pi/pico-8/pico8 -splore" pico8 pico8 ![]() ![]() (SSH) Run this command and add an entry for the Pico-8 system to be recognized by Emulationstation:.After going through the steps above, you should be left with a pico-8 folder that looks like the following:.Remember, your SDL folder might be a different version so substitute the SDL folder name for the name in your pico-8 directory. (SSH) Run the following command to remove the SDL folders.This should create a new file called sdl_controllers.txt under the /home/pi/pico-8/ directory.You should be able to map the B, A, Y, X, D-pad, L/R shoulder, start and select buttons. left/right analogue sticks or triggers), just push B. For buttons you don’t have or that cannot be mapped (e.g. Push the appropriate button that matches the green highlighted one on your screen. controllermap 0 > /home/pi/pico-8/sdl_controllers.txtĪnd follow the onscreen directions on your GPI Case, you should see an image like this on your screen. Run the following controller map command:.If this guide is being used in the future, the path will look like whatever the latest SDL version is. You should have a new subfolder that looks like /home/pi/pico-8/SDL2-2.0.10. zip file and extract the folder contents to the /home/pi/pico-8. (SSH) We need to now setup the button controls for Pico-8 since they might not be mapped correctly as defaulted.Pico-8 needs this to interface with the GPi Case GPIO setup. (SSH) run the following command to install wiringPI.This will be the menu item you will see in RetroPie if you setup the theme to launch Pico-8 from the menu. (FTP or SSH) create a dummy shell script called Start PICO-8.sh and save it to the /home/pi/pico-8 directory. ![]() You should now have a folder path that looks like /home/pi/pico-8 (FTP) Download the Raspberry Pi version and transfer the pico-8 folder to the RetroPie home directory on your Raspberry Pi. ![]() Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) Source - ( SDL2-2.0.10.zip at the time this was written) If you have any comments or suggestions please pass them along to me on my social media pages:įTP Transfer software to connect to the Raspberry Pi - WinSCP for Windows, Cyberduck for MacOS Again, these were my steps to getting this installed, UNIX guru’s or a chimp at the zoo might have a better, more efficient way to do this! Doing this is all up to you and I’m not responsible if something goes awry or messes up your device. The Pico-8 Fantasy Console is a great way to play, share and even create 8-bit style games that happen to run perfectly on the GPi Case! Below are the steps I went through in order to get this setup and configured on my GPi Case.įor this you will probably need some basic understanding of UNIX and how to navigate and run commands.
