Spalsh Screen & wermy's retropie image

Post by Sc726 » Tue Aug 15, 2017 10:04 am

Hi I have modified the Splash screen that came with Wermys Retropie Image but I'm have trouble changing it, has anyone got any suggestions or a guide to how to do this? Even a point in the right direction would be great... Many thanks :D

Whenever I plug in my PCB/raspberry pi combo into the TV through a mini HDMI adapter, it doesn't even reconize it. I'm confused. Usually when I have a retropie .IMG, I put it in Apple Pi Baker and burn it to a micro SD card. What does the setup script do? How do I insert my WiFi SSID and network password?(I'm on mac) What do I do with the SD card after that? Please help.

The setup script is used too setup the pi too use the screen driver and battery monitor, too setup WiFi you can connect a keyboard, select the WiFi option and type in your ssid and password, or you can use the wpa supliccant method, you will be better of googling that method because it's a bit lengthy to explain here

Is there a document showing the changes made in the script? I would like to make the necessary changes in Recalbox instead of Retropie. Thanks.

There is the ili9341 spi tft driver installed, retrogame for gpio buttons and a battery monitor script using the ads1015

When you set up the wi fi and you go in to edit the script, is that the only way to change wi fi, or can you use the wi fi script on retro pi as well?

Would the setup script work on a Pi 4 dev build? I want to try making a more powerful version of the mintypi with a stripped down pi 4, and it would be a lot easier if I could just use this script instead of making my own.

First off WHY? the pi 4 needs decent power to operate and how are you going to fit a battery in the tin along with the pi? and do you know how hot the pi 4 gets? how do you plan to cool it?
