Corsixth Theme Hospital Engine issue

sonicsheppard

Thanks very much for the reply @kiryo , but unfortunately I'm still having problems. I believe the corsixth.sh installer I the Experimental Packages section after installing @zerojay RetroPie-Extras is not actually installing the emulator.

When installing it is extremely fast, and there is nothing appearing in opt/retropie/ports/corsixth.

There is no ~/. config/CorsixTH/config.txt file either, only an emulators.cfg

When trying to launch corsixth from ES, it will just return back to ES.

/dev/shm/runcommand.log gives the following:

 Parameters: 
 Executing: /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth/CorsixTH/CorsixTH
 /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 1007: /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth/CorsixTH/CorsixTH: No such file or directory

Could you try uninstalling corsixth and then try re-installing it to see if you get the same? Would recommend a back-up first!

Thanks so much.

@sonicsheppard Uh... Is there some reason you aren't aware whether or not the installation succeeded?

Hi @zerojay

The folder /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth/ is completely empty, I would have expected some files to be in there? Is that where the emulator should be?

Please let me know if there's anywhere else where corsixth is located.

Thanks,

It's going to be there if it succeeds but why are you not aware if it succeeded without looking for the files?

@zerojay

I'm not sure I fully understand the question, the fact there are no files appearing in that folder is all I'm really going on, and the error that appears in the runcommand.log

Parameters: 
 Executing: /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth/CorsixTH/CorsixTH
 /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 1007: /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth/CorsixTH/CorsixTH: No such file or directory

There are no errors that appear when I choose corsixth from the experimental emulators section of RetroPie-Setup, and it does actually say (installed) next to it.

I'm having a similar problem as the one @sonicsheppard has described in this thread.

I installed CorsixTH from the experimental section (from the RetroPie-Extra repo), RetroPie setup indicates that it is installed, but I can only find an "emulators.cfg" file in the /opt/retropie/configs/ports/corsixth directory, there are no other files or folders. I do have a "bin" and "share" folder under /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth. I dragged the game files into /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/corsixth and the game crashes back to EmulationStation when opening.

I'm not sure what other information I need to include here but any help would be nice, especially if others come across this same issue.

I'll try to take a look at this but it will probably be at least two weeks from now as I'm about to move houses.

I was able to run it in the end by adding soft link to the binary like that:
ln -s /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth/bin/corsix-th ~/RetroPie/roms/ports/corsixth/corsix-th
But I'm not really satisfied with the result, cause it's kinda slow on my Raspberry Pie 3+ and there's some artifacts and issues with font.

@holo Run it at a lower resolution. I think I put some hints in the installer script.

@zerojay I'm already using 640x480, in config file it says it is the minimum. Main issue I'm having is the low fps - on empty map it could vary from 15 to 20 (if I'll open top bar menu then it drops to 6 fps).
