My apologies I just tested it. It looks like there is an issue. The assets may be out of date. I'll look into it.

for reference:

/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/srb2/build/bin/srb2-2.1.17 not found

@argii ok should be fixed. if you update your setup script and try to reinstall again it should work.

updated retropie-setup.
re-installed srb2.
still giving me the same error.

@herb_fargus EPIC !!! Got it to work. I think the first time I didn't do a hard reset. This time I made sure the setup script was in fact updated and then did a hard reset, then re-installed srb2 and BAM !!
Sonic is jumping around.
Looks ridiculous on a 50 in. screen but fun as hell !

A HUGE THANK YOU.

@argii glad you got it sorted

I know this is kind of an old thread, but I just learned about this game from the announcement that the ability to install it is included in the new RetroPie 4.3 image. I did a quick glance through this thread... am I correct in understanding that the port will install not only the script to launch it from ES, but also all the required game files? Or do I have to download it from their website and extract out the data files like in some of the other ports??

@speedy-da-doge Try installing it from the RetroPie setup, it's in the Experimental packages section, called srb2.

Will definitely try this game out! Thanks for the info, I know I'm late.

I just heard about this game today (a little bit late, I know). I read about the latest release and it mentioned it was a DOS game, so I was hoping that I could get it to run in DOSbox - then I learned that it hasn't been a DOS game since the 3rd demo!

Then I stumbled upon this thread - This is awesome! Thank you.

Edit: Good article about evolution of SRB2 Sonic Robo Blast 2's 20th anniversary
