Amiberry - lha - problem with naming

Retropie v 4.4 and Amiberry v2.25

@George-Spiggott i have tried with your solution but nothing.

Uninstalled Amiberry
Deleted the config folder and rebooted the system
Installed Amiberry from source
Runned "Apprentice_v1.3_2288.lha"

but i've got the same error.

I don't understand why :(

@gerry_keys The only other thing I did was updated the XML again when I reinstalled.

I don't actually know if deleting the Amiga config files after uninstalling helps but I deleted all of them. I was left with some empty folders that would not delete. It is possible that they are overwritten when Amiberry reinstalls but I wanted to be thorough when I did it.

I also have a custom joypad config file that I keep in Amiberry/conf (to mitigate Amiberry's Xbox joypad issues) but apart from that my Amiberry setup is entirely vanilla.

@George-Spiggott first of all thanks for your support.

Can you please send me your .xml file in order to check the differences ?

George Spiggott

Sure I'll do that tonight when I have access. I updated my XML via the button in the Amiberry GUI, it isn't modified by me.

Many many thanks @George-Spiggott !!!

in addition (if you have the time for me :) ) could you try to run "Apprentice_v1.3_2288.lha" and check if it works?

Sorry for these request, the passion for the retrogaming is too big for me :)

George Spiggott

If I can find a copy I will. Don't tell me where to find it here, I'll google it.

@George-Spiggott thankyou so much

Incidentally, does anyone know what the naming format is for WHDload games is, specifically what do the four digits at the end of the filename mean? What, if anything, does CDTV in the filename trigger in Amiberry?

George Spiggott

I tried Apprentice with a verbose filename, it worked fine. The XML file is pretty large and I cannot attach it here. This is the apprentice entry.

<game filename="Apprentice_v1.3_2288" sha1="39d97b0d129136ce9afe6f0adc290ef81701f0e6">
<name>Apprentice</name>
<subpath>Apprentice</subpath>
<variant_uuid>9b3892ef-8ff0-5502-9938-5fb8f64827f8</variant_uuid>
<slave_count>1</slave_count>
<slave_default>Apprentice.slave</slave_default>
<slave_libraries>False</slave_libraries>
<slave number="1">
<filename>Apprentice.slave</filename>
<datapath />
</slave>
<hardware>PRIMARY_CONTROL=JOYSTICK PORT0=JOY PORT1=JOY SCREEN_Y_OFFSET=</hardware>
</game>
