BETA 4:

• Work around issue with RetroArch GUI not accepting input/freezing.
• Fixed up RetroArch control configuration via our new integrated input configuration.
• Moved RetroArch joypad cofigurations to /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads

BETA 3:

• Integrated controls configuration for EmulationStation and RetroArch – On first start EmulationStation will ask for controls to be configured, and will then also configure RetroArch based on your choices. Note that there will be a delay after selecting OK whilst this is done – this will be improved later to give feedback so it doesn’t look as though EmulationStation has frozen.
• New experimental modules/emulators: limelight (Networked game streamer for Steam), lr-tgbdual (gameboy color emu with link support), DXX-Rebirth port (Decent 1/2), r-mednafen-wswan (Wonderswan emu), lr-mednagen-gbp (NeoGeo Pocket emu), uae4arm (Amiga emu), lr-fuse (ZX Spectrum emu), lr-caprice32 (Amstrad CPC emu), lr-gw (Game and Watch simulator). All modules prefixed with lr- are libretro cores for use with Retroarch.
• New startup picture with new RetroPie logo.
• Added additional ES theme “Color Pi”
• Dosbox bug fixes / Ability to launch custom shell scripts.
• Wifi configuration under RetroPie menu.
• PS3 controller setup improvements

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release.

Also allows launch of certain emulators with specific configurations, such as render plugin for mupen64plus, and model configuration for fuse.
• RetroArch render resolution is also configurable on launch. Video output is no longer switched by default, but can be adjusted by the user if needed.
• New retropie menu in EmulationStation with easy access to retropie-setup, file manager, audio settings, controller settings,
  raspi-config and so on.
• Emulationstation entries are now sorted (by name) – should mostly match alphabetical order of rom folders.
• Work to ensure user configurations are preserved. More configuration files moved to /opt/retropie/configs/ structure.
• EmulationStation restarts on exit by default unless a key is pressed. Makes it easier for those that want to quick and let it restart to pick up any new roms.
• New platforms.cfg file that contains emulator names / supported file extensions. This can be copied to /opt/retropie/configs/all to override extensions added to emulationstation (A reinstall / re-configuration of the a related emulator is needed after to update the emulation station configuration)
• Addition of AdvanceMAME 1.2 (based on MAME 0.106) which may be useful for rpi2 owners over the 0.94 version. Framebuffer output code adjusted to work better with the Pi.
• rpix86 is included again by default (was missing from the last image).
• Updates to the usbromservice. If you want to sync rom folders it now requires a folder in the root of the usb stick called “retropie”. The roms will be synced from a sub folder called roms. It also can backup/restore your custom emulationstation gameslists / data.

• Various other emulator updates and fixes.
