-
i compile retropie 4.4 by myself .but when i lauch emulationstation i got some issues like below:
lvl2: EmulationStation - v2.8.1rp, built Feb 14 2019 - 22:51:47
lvl2: Creating surface...
lvl2: Created window successfully.
lvl0: Error - File type unknown!

Aborteddid any one can help me ?
this is my platform details：hardware

Your installation is incomplete, you're missing the
resourcesfolder in the right location - see:

@mitu thank you for you help ,it soloved.but i got another issue
when luanche the emulationstation with thme carbon the screen blurred

Please add more info about your system - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Are you running on a Raspberry Pi ? Which model ?
The screenshot is very blurry and I can't make much of it, if you're running on a PI, considerraspi2pngto take a screenshot of the framebuffer. -
@mitu the detail:

The platform is not supported OOB, but by the looks of it I'd say there's something wrong with either the display drivers or the SDL installation.
The screenshot shows the resources are missing (fonts & images), but there's no error in the log file you posted. -

Is this the problem?

@littlehui said in emulationstation can not lauche:
lima driver only support opengl es. Is this the problem?
No, actually is the other way around - Emulationstation needs OpenGL ES for your system to work, but it relies on SDL2 to offer that. If your SDL2 library is not compiled with OpenGL ES support, then it won't work. The RetroPie-Setup script takes care of compiling or installing such SDL2 version (for Raspberry PI at least), I'm not sure your system provided SDL2 library has GL ES support and - also important - accelerated GLES support from the Lima driver.
