Description

Hello welcom to my project, i have donit in 1 year time.

First learning Fusion 360, and then creating the parts.

I can't write a hole story about making the machine, but photo's tells enough i think.

The screen fits perfectly, aligns well, and therefore does not let any light through.

For the joystick only, it is handy to reinforce it with a small iron rod in the middle of the stick.

And fill the inside with synthetic resin.

A nice detail the board does output to external monitor.

When needed (switched)

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Raspberry pi zero 2 w or pi 4 or 3.

Retropie 4.8

but use Buster or this will not work beqause mirror setting

insert on bottom of config.txt display_rotate=0X10000

this is the only one i think works with the right mirror option.

On batocera (intel)

from remote putty terminal >

export DISPLAY=:0.0

batocera-resolution listOutputs

batocera-resolution setOutput <your intended output here>

Editing userdata/system/batocera.conf with

"es.resolution=2048x1536.60.00"

This works fine when I set 1024x768 but cant get anything above 1080

Run batocera-save-overlay in the terminal after making your changes?

Have Funn
