Return to Castle Wolfenstein - IORTCW source port

Quackwalks

@ExarKunIv Moving "iortcw" to the front of the list of emulator names didn't work.

@Quackwalks I just looked through my scriptmodule for RTCW and the port builds both singleplayer and multiplayer into it's own config folder in ports like this.

function configure_rtcw() {
    addPort "$md_id" "rtcw-sp" "Return to Castle Wolfenstein - SP" "$md_inst/iowolfsp.arm"
    addPort "$md_id" "rtcw-mp" "Return to Castle Wolfenstein - MP" "$md_inst/iowolfmp.arm"

Try adding rtcw-sp to the front of the list of emulator or rtcw-mp if you are using multiplayer. If this still does not work then try adding rtcw instead.

This won't work! This is just the setup for emulator.cfg you need the running binary. Hence the script should search for iowolfsp.arm and iowolfmp.arm

EDIT:
I really wait for a modification that just watches a running pid from bash-file runcommand.sh ... that's all :)

@tpo1990 @cyperghost I tried rtcw-sp, trcw-mp, rtcw, iowolfsp.arm and iowolfmp.arm at the beginning of the list of emulator names with no success. Thanks for trying though. This is kinda crazy because what other names are there to try? I think I've tried all there is for this game.

@Quackwalks Hmmm... Well I prefer the mpg123 method for mp3 play.
You can read more about ---> here: Quick and Easy guide credits for this method fly out to @synack
Meanwhile mpg123 can also fade in/fade out --> here: mpg123 fade in/fade out , you can ask me if you've any question regarding this one.

@Quackwalks Then i have no idea what to use for make it able to mute the music when starting rtcw at the moment. But maybe @cyperghost 's approach could work.

Error message when I try to create a server (local or online, it doesn't matter):

ExarKunIv

@tpo1990 when i ran the update script for Retropie i get a error for rtcw.

@Turrican2k "For Multiplayer. Add all the multiplayer pak files: mp_bin.pk3, mp_pak0.pk3, mp_pak1.pk3, mp_pak2.pk3, mp_pak3.pk3, mp_pak4.pk3, mp_pak5.pk3, mp_pakmaps0.pk3, mp_pakmaps1.pk3, mp_pakmaps2.pk3, mp_pakmaps3.pk3, mp_pakmaps4.pk3, mp_pakmaps5.pk3, mp_pakmaps6.pk3 from your RTCW installation to /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/rtcw."

Turrican2k

@quicksilver I did it completely according to the description! A total of 19 files that I have transferred from the Platinum Edition. The single player works anyway, multiplayer has the said error message ...

@Turrican2k I'll see if I can replicate your issue

@Turrican2k Set sv_pure 0 in the .cfg file - or toggle the console (via ~) and write sv_pure 0.

Turrican2k

@mitu Thank you very much, that helped!

However, you have to enter in the * .cfg seta sv_pure "0".

tpo1990

@ExarKunIv What RPI model did you ran the update script on?

@Turrican2k You can also disable the "Pure server" option in the multiplayer server options. It should be there when choosing multiplayer map. This is easier that editing the .cfg file or changing it in the console.

Hi all, I've just tried installing this, but I get the following error:

Could not successfully install RTCW - IORTCW source port of Return to Castle Wolfenstein.
(/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build.rtcw/SP/build/release-Linux-arm/iowolfsp.arm not found).

I'm on a Pi 3B running the latest Buster build.
To install I ran

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tpo1990/RTCW-RPI/master/rtcw.sh -P $HOME/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/ports/

and then I installed from source in the RPsetup menu. Anyone know what's going on?

Also, when I do manage to install this, do I need to have all the single player pak files (pak0.pk3, sp_pak1.pk3, sp_pak2.pk3, sp_pak3.pk3 and sp_pak4.pk3) to run this? My version of RTCW only has pak0.pk3 and sp_pak.pk3

Thanks

There's an error during installation from source - look in the logs sub-folder and you'll find the detailed error in the latest log file. My guess it's missing a package dependency and compilation fails.

Hi mate, this is the last section from the log:

Don't really know what to do with this do. Do you need to full log or is the GLES file the only issue?

mitu

@Evert That's because there's no GLES1 dev package available for that Debian version - it used to be https://packages.debian.org/stretch/libgles1-mesa-dev, but in Buster that package is not available anymore - https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libgles1-mesa-dev.

@mitu ok, so does that mean that IORTCW won't work on the new buster image? Is there a work around or does the port require to be updated for buster?

Can't say if/when it will work, but at the moment it's not building for Buster in the current form.
Anyway, since the Buster image is still a work in progress, you'll have to wait until it's actually released. Otherwise, use the current stable image and it might work.
