Not sure why, but every time i try to edit this file, emulationstation breaks. Is there something in the software that will not allow me to edit this file? I do know what i am doing, i have been editing this file to add more "systems" for years now. Also, i compiled attract mode, and it works on the GPA, but it kills Emulationstation, i get an error that "emulationstation" is an illegal instruction message, however...if i take the card and put it in my pi, that is hooked to my tv...ES boots up no problem. Any ideas? I have attract mode running really smooth, but it kills ES in the process.
Thanks for any advice,
Freddy
Yeah, I do have one idea. The error you describe is what would typically happen if you compile something for a Pi 3 and then run it on a Pi 0/1.
Did you compile on the Zero or on another Pi?

yes i compiled on a pi3. i cant get it to compile on the zero. but, i have done this before using a regular retropie zero w image, to run attract mode on another pi zero. I have a pi zero running attract, just not in the GPA, and yes i did compile attact onto the GPA image using a pi3 and am getting those errors. Thank you for the reply. i will try to work around it. Any suggestions?

There should be a compile option to target the Pi0/1 vs. the Pi2/3.
I found this (if you're actually editing compiler options).

You definitely can compile on the the Pi3 and target the Pi0/1/2/3. I don't know if that forum post I linked to is the best for that or not.
