Little big adventure 2 problem

@espegael Use the 1st one and add the section with [autoexec] to it at the end.

espegael

ok i'll try it tomorrow, just a last question before leaving. Do i have to copied and renamed the conf file like you said at the begining or do i have to modify this one adding the auto exec part at the end?

mitu

@espegael Copy the file first on the USB, then open it there and add the lines with the [autoexec] section.

espegael

Ok i tried it and it disnt work... maybe i dont know with file i have to exzcute on retropie to have the game

mitu

@espegael You should be 'executing' the .conf file you created. Do you get any errors ?

espegael

@mitu i see the artictle online but i dont understand all..

http://dosonthepi.blogspot.com/2015/01/run-dos-games-in-retropie_15.html?m=1#add-dosgames

It says to create a script to aut mount the exe

mitu

@espegael You don't need to follow that page, it should work with the .conf file from the GOG installation. In the interest of science, I've experimented with it and got it to start, ~~but asks for the CD~~. Here's what I've done

Copied the game folder (from the GOG installation) in ~/RetroPie/roms/pc-data/lba2/lba2. For some reason LBA doesn't like to start from *C:* directly.
Added a lba2.conf file at ~/RetroPie/roms/pc/lba2.conf, copying the Dosbox configuration file from the GOG installation and modifying the [autoexec] section to read

[autoexec]
@echo off
mount c /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc-data/lba2
imgmount d "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc-data/lba2/lba2/LBA2.DAT" -t iso
c:
cls
cd \LBA2
LBA2.EXE
exit

A link to the complete .conf file is here.

I start the game from the PC system, running the LBA2 entry that corresponds to the .conf file I created. It gets to the game menu, but since I don't have a keyboard, I can't say how it runs.

Ok thanks a lot! I do exactly what ypu said and it worked

I tried to play but the keypad is going wrong.. the down button is enter

2 is to go up

7 is f1

Well any idea to fix it?

Can't say I have, I don't play any dos games with the gamepad. Maybe you can start the DOSBOX mapper and re-map the keyboard for the game.

espegael

@mitu cant because i have to do CTRL F1 but i dont know where is the CTRL buttons

O dont know what to do.. on recalbox it was working i just add mapperfile=lba2.map

I try to do this on retrpie but it doesnot work

This works if you have that file available, which I assume is not the case on RetroPie. Maybe it's generated automatically by Recalbox or by auto-configured based on something else, but here you need to use the Mapper, re-map the keyboard and save the file, which you can then reference in the .conf with mapperfile=<save_file>.

espegael

@mitu ok right it finally works. I found the CTRL and F1buttonns and configure the keymap

It works on everythink except on the number pad.. i think there is a problem with the NUM bouton. I see that the NUM led dont light when i push it.. i test on another key and its the same... my configuration configures the page up bouton and not the 8 bouton i think

The same problme appears with CAPS bouton, does raspberry support the changing of CAPS and NUM
it ligh on my computer but not in the raspberry
