Ok, good point.
So perhaps it can work.
I will try some more games then. -
I tried these games without success in both lr-mess and mame (sha1sum)(cue/bin) :

(seems nothing is working)I will have a look for games in the hash table (/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/hash/pippin.xml)
This xml also says :
Todo: Some (maybe all?) Pippin discs are compatible with macsSo there is an option to try it on one of the mac systems.

@folly Maybe, but as I understand Mac emulation is possibly the trickiest on RetroPie-Setup. I haven't even attempted it as it seems very daunting.
I tried Super Marathon on my end, same issue. -

I tried Super Marathon on my end, same issue.I did have some succes in the past with basiliskII and sheepshaver.
But sheepshaver isn't part of Retropie, but it can run on RPI (at least in the desktop)
I remember that the mouse was not always working correct.Perhaps I can dig this up a bit.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I think OS7,OS8 and OS9 is open source now.

I have successfully compiled SheepShaver (the kanjitalk branch) for RPi2+ and the RPi400 as well, and installed it under RetroPie 4.7.1, with custom scripts etc. It resides under Macintosh alongside Minivmac and Basilisk II. I can boot OS7.5, OS8.6 and OS9 using ROM images from PowerMacs 7200, 8600 and 9600 and different hard disk images, one of which is my own old 8600 image.
SheepShaver requires a compile with absolute addressing mode set, and there has to be a kernel parameter set for it in /ets/sysctl.conf to allow access to this addressing space. Otherwise it will not start. I have made notes of how to do this that I can share. Or check this thread that I opened on the SheepShaver forum:
https://www.emaculation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11017Frank

Nice, I compiled already.
Start-menu works but I still have to look for the roms and images on my old computer.
This can take a while.
Not yet tried/used sysctl -p.Summarized :
Downloaded from : https://github.com/kanjitalk755/macemu
Extracted manually in : /home/pi/Downloads/macemu-masterAll commands to compile for pi4 :
sudo apt-get install build-essential git libgtk2.0-dev x11proto-xf86dga-dev libesd0-dev libxxf86dga-dev libxxf86dga1 libsdl1.2-dev cd /home/pi/Downloads/macemu-master/SheepShaver make links cd src/Unix/ NO_CONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh ./configure --enable-sdl-video --enable-sdl-audio --disable-vosf --disable-jit-compiler --with-gtk --enable-addressing=direct,0x10000000 make -j4
The SheepShaver binary comes in /home/pi/Downloads/macemu-master/SheepShaver/src/Unix
Start SheepShaver in the above directory with (in desktop) :
./SheepShaver
-
The compiled program starts the configuration GUI allright, but will fail to start the actual emulator. This I found requires sudo rights - at least in RetroPie - and means that SheepShaver must be started with sudo. Also, in RetroPie, when starting an application as sudo, it will have to perform its own xinit to connect to the display. I use the following lines in the emulator.cfg to start the three generations of OS in SheepShaver:
sheepshaver_os9 = "sudo xinit /home/pi/compile/SheepShaver/SheepShaver --rom /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh/ppc_mac/newworld86.rom --disk /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh/ppc_mac/OS9_boot.image --disk %ROM% --extfs /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh --screen win/0/0 --windowmo des 0 --screenmodes 0 --seriala /dev/ttyS0 --serialb /dev/ttyS1 --bootdrive 0 --bootdriver 0 --ramsize 268435456 --frameskip 0 --gfx accel true --nocdrom false --nonet false --nosound false --nogui true --noclipconversion false --ignoresegv true --ignoreillegal fals e --jit false --jit68k true --keyboardtype 5 --ether wlan0 --keycodes false --mousewheelmode 1 --mousewheellines 3 --dsp /dev/dsp -- mixer /dev/mixer --ignoresegv true --idlewait true " sheepshaver_os8 = "sudo xinit /home/pi/compile/SheepShaver/SheepShaver --rom /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh/ppc_mac/newworld86.rom --disk /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh/ppc_mac/MacOS8.6.mine.bootable.image --disk %ROM% --extfs /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh --screen win/0 /0 --windowmodes 0 --screenmodes 0 --seriala /dev/ttyS0 --serialb /dev/ttyS1 --bootdrive 0 --bootdriver 0 --ramsize 268435456 --fram eskip 0 --gfxaccel true --nocdrom false --nonet false --nosound false --nogui true --noclipconversion false --ignoresegv true --igno reillegal false --jit false --jit68k true --keyboardtype 5 --ether wlan0 --keycodes false --mousewheelmode 1 --mousewheellines 3 --d sp /dev/dsp --mixer /dev/mixer --ignoresegv true --idlewait true " sheepshaver_os7 = "sudo xinit /home/pi/compile/SheepShaver/SheepShaver --rom /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh/ppc_mac/PowerMac7200v1.ROM --d isk /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh/ppc_mac/OS7_boot.img --disk %ROM% --extfs /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/macintosh --screen win/0/0 --window modes 0 --screenmodes 0 --seriala /dev/ttyS0 --serialb /dev/ttyS1 --bootdrive 0 --bootdriver 0 --ramsize 268435456 --frameskip 0 --g fxaccel true --nocdrom false --nonet false --nosound false --nogui true --noclipconversion false --ignoresegv true --ignoreillegal fa lse --jit false --jit68k true --keyboardtype 5 --ether wlan0 --keycodes false --mousewheelmode 1 --mousewheellines 3 --dsp /dev/dsp --mixer /dev/mixer --ignoresegv true --idlewait true "
Important notice. When you use the config GUI, SheepShaver creates a sheepshaver_prefs file in the home directory, which in the case of a sudo means in /root. But I found the whole config GUI kept remembering settings I don't want, so I delete the prefs-file and hand all parameters directly in the init lines above.
Another notice: The mouse may not move smoothly across the mac desktop. In order to smoothen the movements, I set --frameskip 0.
If you want to try this, there are working ROMs out there. The newworldrom works fine. And there are blank HFS disk images too as well as install disks I believe directly downloadable from Apple. I think. I had my own old OS7.5 install CD-ROM, so my OS7.5 runs from a blank HFS hard disk on which I installed the OS from a disk image of the CD. Or go to the SheepShaver forum, where you can find links to all you need.

I will have a look at your information.
I have it running in the desktop without the
sysctl -p
part and withoutsudo
.
Basically only doing what I have said in the last post.
Here is a screenshot :
-
I suppose this is plain Pi OS, and not RetroPie?
-
I run RetroPie on top of the plain Raspberry pi OS, indeed.
So booting intocli
and runningemulationstation
does pretty much the same as the retropie os.I my opinion it shouldn't matter, and I am way more flexible.
When I have the time, I will make the emulators.cfg to see how it goes.

hi guys, after long time i updated my fork.
i rewritten completely the HDMI <==> CRT switch option, plus i synced the fork with the main repo (some adjustment were needed).
regards, and thanks again for your interest in my little tool :)
-
@dteam very nice what you did, would you mind to integrate it in my repo (i.e. to call it directly from the retropie menu) ? lemme know !!!!!
v.

Hi Valerino, the only thing I did is Tutorial: Handheld and Plug & Play systems with MAME and the stuff here (excepted most of the MAME artworks done by others). Everythings about the script is from @Folly .
Do you talk about the theme (Cygnus modified) on Google Drive or the "Systems Scraping"?

@dteam yeah right, sorry. my bad, i read the post above the auto-generation of lr-mess scripts and i confused the nicknames. its @Folly . would be great to have its work merged into mine !
Hi Valerino,
I am all open to join the forces.
This means we can improve so much more with the three of us.Curious, have you tried some generated scripts within your fork ?
Perhaps it's best to discuss the merging ideas in a separate thread.
Joining the best of all and taking the future developments of RetroPie in consideration, like the ability to use external repositories.What do you both think about that.
-
@folly hi man! sure we can join, also with @DTEAM too and anyone interested. i haven't tested it yet, but having read briefly your thread it should work without problems integrated with the retropie menu (maybe asking for some input by the user, should be possible).
i'll try to look at it this evening/tonight (i'm in italy), and i'll tell you back.
-
Great.
Ok, we are somewhat in the same timezone (I am Dutch).Remember the BIOS files go into /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS/mame .
I changed this because of MAME, so both lr-mess and mame use the same bios dir. -

I'm canadian, I'll be on the night shift 🤣

What do you both think about that.We should continue in Development of module-script generator for lr-mess and mame standalone . Actually, only Folly and me have discussed in this thread and It's up to date.

Ok let's do that.
We can always do a new thread if it comes to that.

@valerino hi there
first a big thank you on your lr-mess work.i d like to share my beebem finding. You can have it centered and at full size by starting as "XINIT: beebem %ROM%" in emulators.cfg if FULLSCREEN enabled or setting 640x480in videomodes.cfg fro example i use this mode from runcommand BBCMicro_beebem013 = "87-40"
About sound. Indeed there is no sound with latest compile source available 0.13 but I noticed this weird behavior (windows latest runs great with full sound) with compiled beebem in linux/arm
while in a games like fortress if you open gui and change the sample rate down or up (just change sampling rate) then emulator will have sound for a while. Preferred is lowest (11k)
When you lose and exit to game menu to start again, sounds is gone until you do same.Thats all. I guess on UBUNTU x86 is working ok in my understanding (havent tested)
But Ill test your lr mess and advmame setupif of any interest to anyone here is my
beebem.registry
