      @julenvitoria Thanks a lot for the tips. I was able to build the gl4es lib for the RPI4 and this made OpenBor run. However, I tried Streets of Rage 2X and the game crashes just after the "start" screen. This is the runcommand log, if it is of any help

        @janderclander14 Hi!!! I downloaded Street Of Rage 2x from here (download android PAK, inside the zip you'll found it) and it works fine for me ;)
        Could you tell me the size of your libGL.so.1 file? Mine is 1595 kb and works fine on my pi 4

          @julenvitoria Thanks, that worked! I was using the latest version of the mod (1.9.3) and for some reason it crashes. Version 1.7 works fine.

              @janderclander14 You must compile the libGL.so.1 file for your raspberry pi 4, otherwise it will return to ES because it is compiled for rpi 3 / 3B +... Clone this repo to your rpi 4 and compile it following the instructions for raspberry. After compiling it you will find that it still doesn't work ... well, if you take a look at issue 129 you will see that you need to do make with -j4. The code to like in RPi 4 should be like this:

              mkdir build; cd build; cmake ..; make -j4
              

              I have also tried this other

              mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j4
              

              Both work but I need to do more checks to know which one works better or what affects not having the flag -DBCMHOST=1 (I'm a little noob...)

              @shavecat You must compile the libGL.so.1 file for your raspberry pi 4, follow this instructions ;)

                EDIT: [SOLVED] User error. For my configuration, I needed to move the active directory to opt/retropie/configs/ports/openbor

                @julenvitoria , like others, I'm very excited about this.

                I followed the instructions for Raspberry Pi4B. No trouble compiling libGL.so.1 as described with the -j4 switch. Moved the compiled file from ./lib to the /opt/retropie/ports/openbor-6xxx folder (renamed the old one first).

                When running the openbor-6xxx emulator, it fails for me. Viewing dev/shm/runcommand.log shows "failed to add service - already in use?"

                Example trying to launch He-Man.pak

                Parameters: 
                Executing: pushd /opt/retropie/ports/openbor-6xxx; /opt/retropie/ports/openbor-6xxx/OpenBOR "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/openbor/He-Man.pak"; popd
                /opt/retropie/ports/openbor-6xxx ~
                * failed to add service - already in use?
                LIBGL: Initialising gl4es
                LIBGL: v1.1.3 built on May 10 2020 20:10:23
                LIBGL: Using GLES 2.0 backend
                LIBGL: loaded: libGLESv2.so
                LIBGL: loaded: libEGL.so
                LIBGL: Using GLES 2.0 backend
                

                Running from the command-line works just fine. Issue occurs only when launching via ES.

                  mkdir build; cd build; cmake ..; make -j4

                  So im trying your bulid code both of them
                  but it gives me that -

                  
                  pi@retropie:~ $ mkdir build; cd build; cmake ..; make -j4
                  CMake Error: The source directory "/home/pi" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
                  Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.
                  make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
                  pi@retropie:~/build $ mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j4
                  CMake Error: The source directory "/home/pi/build" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.

                  make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
                  pi@retropie:~/build/build $
                  
                  

                  Does the roms going to the same place like pi3b+ in the ports openbor folder (then paks files there )
                  Or is it going to rom/openbor folder ...

                    @shavecat You must first change to the directory where you cloned the gl4es repo, then run the commands...

                    git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/gl4es
                    
                    cd gl4es
                    
                    mkdir build; cd build; cmake ..; make -j4
                    

                    It will be compiled... then you must copy libGL.so.1 to the openbor-6xxx directory

                    cd lib; sudo cp libGL.so.1 /opt/retropie/ports/openbor-6xxx
                    

                    also you can try the repo that I created ... it is a fork of the cypherghost repo but I changed the routes because I included ligbGL.so.1 for raspberry pi zero and raspberry pi 4. The structure of the repo is very different and I didn't know very well how to do it (I'm a little noob...)

                                @shavecat Hi!! There is some game that allows saving the options as default (for all games). One of them is Asterix and Caesar’s Challenge. You can also try to run a game, the configuration of that game will be generated automatically when changing some configuration parameter (for example fullscreen). Then go to /opt/retropie/configs/ports/openbor/Saves and rename the file as default.cfg . Run another game and tell us the result, please :)

                                        @julenvitoria You should give BATOCERA a try here OpenBOR is added as standard system.

                                        There are lots more of people....
                                        Just to mention a few @zanac, @darknior and @BiZzAr721 are the real OpenBOR heroes.

                                          I understand that you have some decision-making power here, I hope I am not completely wrong.
                                          This works, it is functional several people contributed to a greater or lesser extent.
                                          I would like to know why it is not included at once in the retropie-setup script?
                                          Really, need more test? any way to help.
                                          Sorry if the written text may sound bad, but the language difference is present.

                                            I don't, you mis-understood.

                                            I would like to know why it is not included at once in the retropie-setup script?

                                            Include what ? OpenBor as a separate system or @cyperghost's script ? You can submit a PR to be included to the RetroPie's project repository.
