      @retropi19 so I installed matchbox and ran the command you posted but it didn't understand the command xset. I apparently had to install something separate for that. Now it recognizes xset but says unable to open display. The game will still boot however but I don't think it's using matchbox.

        yeah i thought so its a whole process to make it work to pass-thou the whole runcommand
        go here

        https://github.com/zerojay/RetroPie-Extra/blob/master/scriptmodules/ports/firefox-esr.sh
        save the script to your computer edit with sudo nano firefox-esr.sh
        replace in the script the names and the descriptions eg instead of firefox put gridwars
        and in the /usr/bin/executable section put the location of the executable with the executable in the end

                @retropi19 Im having a hard time compiling a newer version of OpenRCT2. I download the newer version from their site but when I try to build it it says it cant find cmake instructions or something like that

                  you need to install this packages: sudo apt-get install make cmake

                    @retropi19 I believe I already did that as it required cmake with the older version of OpenRCT2 as well

                          Did you delete the folder you compiled before the older version or you compiled on it the latest one? if not delete totally the folder and try the latest version

                          otherwise maybe the latest version is the problem try the 0.2.1 version and if it does the same try the 0.2.0

                          to create a shortcut do this

                          cd /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports
                          sudo nano Openrct2.sh
                          inside type the game location eg: cd /home/pi/openrct2 press enter to go a line under
                          and type the command that you start the game
                          finally press control+x and yes to save

                            @retropi19 Alright so I found part of the problem. The newer version of OpenRCT2 requires cmake 3.9 or higher and the cmake included in the repository is only 3.7.2. Any idea on how to install a more updated version of cmake?

                            EDIT:
                            So I was able to update to a newer version of cmake but the OpenRCT2 build now fails. Here is a copy of the CMake error log

                              or you post this on the github page of the port maybe they can help you more or you try to install an older version as i said before eg: 0.2.1 or 0.2.0
