r/batocera

So in Batocera, I only have this issue with PS1 games but they appearing multiple times in my library (I also haven’t scrapped yet lol). I just have the folders in my PSX rom folder but is there a way I can stop this? Because inside each folder is multiple .bin an .cue so I’m not sure if I have to delete some or what to do. Thank you.

Another one of a kind build by FITZPATRICK ELECTRONICS. Inspired by my latest PI-5 RetroDeck and CyberDeck here goes the PI-5 K Plus RetroDeck. With a Glass fiber PETG chassis I designed and printed myself. Powered by the 16GB RAM Raspberry pi 5, 512 GB nvme. 7 inch touchscreen display. Mini wireless keyboard. A dedicated raspberry pi battery hat modified with 4 high quality lithium laptop batteries for 5+ hrs of battery life. PINN bootloader installed to the NVME to dual boot between Batocera for all my retro gaming needs, and Twister OS for everyday workflow and educational computing. This monster is sturdy, rigid, and lightweight an absolute power house. Follow my YouTube channel for the full build FITZPATRICK ELECTRONICS!!

About 10 years ago I bought an arcade1up MK2 machine. That started me down the path of home arcades and emulation. Since then I have acquired a total of 5 machines that are all either customized or modified in some way by me. Roughly 5 years ago I found batocera while googling how to fix a cheap KinHank super console and thought immediately that this was how I was going to round out my collection with a shooter arcade. I currently have a 2 player fighter, 2 player multicade, driver, 4 player and single player machine.

I bought a refurbished dell optiplex 7010, a Seagate 2TB USB SSD, and an 8bitdo sn30 remote and set off on my journey. I'm a mechanic and don't know jack shit about programming of any kind. I'm also not a carpenter and I can't cut a straight line to save my life. 4 years I worked on adding games and bought 2 sinden light guns for it. Had everything pretty well dialed in and then I changed the theme and it was stuck in a boot loop. I talked to the good people on the discord server about it and nothing would get it out. So 4 years flushed down the drain but I was back to almost where I was in about 3 month after I nuked the drive and started over.

Sitting in my garage 1 night with a glass of whiskey I looked at some left over lumber in the corner and thought maybe I could make something. I wasn't planning on an arcade at the time, just felt like building. My son came out and saw it and asked if it was going to be an arcade. He likes to tear down pallets and build stupid shit when he's bored so we decided to call it the "The Pallet-cade". I used furring strips with the rough side out to make it look like pallet wood and used a MAP gas torch to char and weather the wood. I thought the 50x30 deck was going to be too big, but thus far it appears to be just about perfect sized. I added an external HDMI port to the back wall of the deck and 4 USB to the front was to plug in controllers in the event you want to sit down or just not play with joysticks. I also have a remote power button that I have a plan to put center in between the 2 center USB'S.

Its almost done at this point and I have verified the machine is functional and plays games very well to this point. I have about 12 more button holes to drill (start and select for each player, 3 buttons for the trackball harness and 1 button hole spinner) and then I can seal and paint the mdf. It does have 2 lift struts or gas springs under the lid to open it for service and storage that i am really anxious to hook up and test out.
