Dee2er, sure seems like this version has been the most challenging for you... Just wanted to say thanks for your perseverance. Looking forward to the next release. I think I've been using the ARpiCADE since late 2017, early 2018. Love it, even the challenges it gives us users sometimes.

Atomiswave is a missing link to the bios. I only figured it out a couple of days ago. Will post a fix after dinner.
Forgot last night, sorry. Run this command from the terminal to fix it (or wait for the next update):
sudo ln -s /boot/firmware/romsArcade/naomi/awbios.zip /home/pi/.config/retroarch/dc/awbios.zip

Hello Dee2er...

Do Atomiswave games still go in the NAOMI folder?

Do I still use NAOMI as the "emulator" in the romlists?

Arcade Italia generated a romlist for me, but it's not working... is the BIOS entry messing things up or something else? Can you post a line from your Atomiswave romlist?

Tried pulling out the "awbios" and "Atomiswave Bios" parts and still.. no go. Do I need the AWBios placed in the naomi roms folder maybe?

Normally, yes as far as I know. I will be trying this out today myself.

Adding the AWBIOS file to the naomi folder rectified the issue.

Thus far most games have worked. The King of Fighters locks on a black screen... will try a different rom source.

Now to go acquire snap, vid, and wheel files.

Sorry for the noob question but how to i get to the terminal? I went into the service menu and pused esc and got to a very hard to read terminal then typed the line and it said sudo ln not found?
