EmuDeck Diagnostics & Autofix
Added 2023-10-26 13:48:30 +0000 UTCEdit: New autofixes: .bat launchers & SRM not showing the proper parsers
I've added a new functionality, every time you open EmuDeck, it will run some diagnostics and will fix whatever it finds. Since this is a backend feature, there's no need to update, next time you open EmuDeck those diagnostics will run, you get a message if you had something that wasn't properly setup.
Right now this is what we are checking:
Windows
- Checks for beta installation corruption, downloading the latest EA build if needed.
- Checks that RA is not using subfolders for states & saves and fixes them in case they were ( we create a backup just in case )
- Removes old .lnk files in the saves folders.
- Checks all the saves folders and fixes them in case they are not properly created.
- Added detection for old .bat configurations with instructions on how to update
- Auto fixes some cases where the dynamic parsers will just delete the parsers instead of create them
Windows & SteamOS
- Checks and removes the lock for CloudSync, in case your upload failed or something happened that kept CloiudSync blocked.
SteamOS
- Checks and removes if there's a duplicated EmulationStation DE launcher.
- Removes old .lnk files in the saves folders that could have been synced from Windows.
- Makes sure the Steam Rom Manager and EmulationStation DE shortcuts are created in the "Start Menu" in desktop mode.
- Looks and fixes a bug that might cause cloudSync to do uploads but don't do downloads
I hope with these almos all of the issues can now be fixed automatically

2023-11-25 20:17:45 +0000 UTCI recently updated and I’m on the “Emudeck is loading. Please wait a few seconds if this takes too long to restart…” I’ve restarted emudeck and I’ve restarted my Legion go and it’s still stuck on this loading and it’s doing the same thing… EDIT Let it sit for a good long time, and it finally switched over. I would suggest changing the verbiage here from wait a few seconds to this could take several minutes.

2023-11-16 07:00:28 +0000 UTCDiscord invite link is expired. Also having an issue with SRM: Error encountered while reading user configurations!
2023-11-14 04:15:16 +0000 UTCI love how emudeck functions, but I am getting Exactly the same issue here,
2023-11-14 03:15:31 +0000 UTCI also would like to remove the yuzu parser from EmuDeck's UI
2023-11-12 20:32:38 +0000 UTCHow do I add the Ryujinx parser to SRM? I've installed the emulator but no parser got added.
2023-11-12 20:19:09 +0000 UTCFor all the angry people, Ithink you are doing well.

2023-11-09 18:59:45 +0000 UTCI've been having trouble with this since I downloaded and now it won't even get passed the damn diagnostic screen. Imma bail, thanks for putting in the work but I never even got to play or use anything since its been nothing but issues. Bye

2023-11-08 15:05:55 +0000 UTCUsing this on a Legion Go. So far only having issues with tg16-cd and psx (psx rearmed) and neither can find the bios, although I've dropped them into the "bios" folder. PSX constantly loads and says can't find bios, and defaults to crappy built in bios. Is there some other place to put them, or a way to point to the bios from within the emulator? Kinda scratching my head on this. NES and regular TG16 are working fine because they don't require bios files.

2023-11-07 20:42:43 +0000 UTCDo the Legion have some kind of gamepad / keyboard mode like the Ally?
EmuDeck
2023-11-07 14:27:44 +0000 UTCSo I installed Emudeck on my Windows Laptop - this didn't have Emudeck installed before - and the same thing is happening. When I try to launch stuff like ESDE the icon pops up then it vanishes and the app doesn't load. What's going on guys?

2023-11-07 07:27:00 +0000 UTCI'm not sure where this question should be posed, so I'll try here and see where it goes. I installed EmuDeck on my Lenovo Legion Go and I'm encountering a few issues that I'm not seeing on my ROG Ally (or SteamDeck). -When starting games in EmulationStation (ES), the emulators/games aren't opening in full-screen for some reason. Is there a setting I need to change? -Also in ES, the controls aren't working as they do on the Ally and SteamDeck [e.g., usually I push in both sticks (L3 + R3) to exit into Retroarch)]. I noticed the ES icon in Steam shows a keyboard/mouse and not a controller. Maybe related? -Maybe my primary concerns point back to the following question, but which installation method should I have chosen for the Legion Go? I went with Windows Handheld, but maybe I should've chosen the ROG Ally since it appeared to work well (at least on the Ally itself)? Thanks for any assistance.
2023-11-06 13:51:38 +0000 UTCSo on my ROG Ally I have the problem with some of the Emulators and programs that they do not launch. For Emulationstation / Dolpin for example the icon pops up on the task bar so it does try to run but it instantly closes without any message.In the case of Ryujinx the usual command prompt style screen runs but it then closes before the main app interface loads. I have tried to reset config / update / reinstall / remove and newly install the offending apps but still they do not work.They were all working fine when initially installed so appear to have been borked by an updates to either EmuDeck or Windows / Ally. Did anyone else have this issue or can recommend what to try?

2023-11-06 10:46:40 +0000 UTCArmory Crate was also closed.
2023-11-06 05:05:38 +0000 UTCI'm having issues running the steam Rom manager on my Ally. I toggled the parsers that I wanted and it's saying to click the preview button but there isn't one. Left to right ist showing "Add games, Log, Settings, Exceptions, Parsers". I added all my games to the rom file and steam is shut down. Is there a step I'm missing or something?
2023-11-06 05:00:39 +0000 UTChey, Are there issues with the shader set up applying in the emudeck menu set up ?

2023-11-05 14:36:53 +0000 UTCBefore = retroach\saves\mGBA\PokemonLeafGreen.srm and AFTER = retroarch\saves\PokemonLeafGreen.srm
2023-11-04 17:17:56 +0000 UTCAfter this update, my retroarch game saves keeping getting moved out of the emulator folder and to the root of the save folder. This is preventing my games from seeing my saves files.
2023-11-04 17:15:36 +0000 UTCIs the early access discord still open? Cuz I need help and can't solve an issue installing emudeck :(
2023-11-04 05:06:35 +0000 UTCI reset the SRM config but now there is no more snes9x for super Nintendo for emulator???

2023-10-31 17:06:14 +0000 UTCAll my retro games and emulators are broken since I do this update. I parse with steam manager but I see that all my link are with .bat but no .bat but .PS1 in the emulators tools launchers directory so what I have to do now. Everything was working like a charm and now nothing is working I just do not know how you can broke everything like that :(
