      Is the file "supermodel-mechafatnick.sh" all i need to get it to install? I have tried the instructions on mechafatnicks site, but couldn't get it to work. I just read that it needs a lib2 dev upgrade, that and a typo where the folder in the roms was wrong spelled didn't let me go further.

      I think i will delete everything i have done so far and just use your script "supermodel-mechafatnick.sh"

        The "supermodel-mechafatnick.sh" is all you need and should be fine.

            Hi,
            I removed my earlier post.

            Indeed, I discovered that the latest version seems to have an issue with the auto-resolution when running the normal way.
            I have to investigate why it isn't working the way it should.

            Can you de-install the latest version and then install this older version ? :
            https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FollyMaddy/RetroPie-Share/bcc1bfb9ef00ded0b060f70df06d10c6660f07f1/00-scriptmodules-00/emulators/supermodel-mechafatnick.sh

            It will produce 3 lines in emulators.cfg with different resolution.

            I hope this will work for you.

                I can't directly see what wrong.
                It looks like the same log from earlier.
                I would expect to see some -res parts for the resolution but I don't see that.

                Do you use a pi4 ?
                Is the binary of supermodel in this directory : /opt/retropie/emulators/supermodel-mechafatnick ?

                  If the binary is there, could it be a permission issue? is it worth running:

                  chmod -R 755 /opt/retropie/emulators/supermodel-mechafatnick

                  just to be on the safe side?

                    Good suggesting.

                    I am confident it should run one way or another.

                    @phialek

                    After you did the permission part.
                    Can you then check if you can run the binary manually ?

                    cd  /opt/retropie/emulators/supermodel-mechafatnick
./supermodel

                    You should then get the help/usage output of the emulator and then we know the binary is working.

                      thanks for all the help

                      the bin is not here:
                      /opt/retropie/emulators/

                      how do i get it there? i thought the script would do it on its own.

                      and yes im using a pi4

                        its in the supplementary folder. i will change its location now.

                        after changing the location daytona 2 is running. but super slow about 20% of original speed. is there a way to make it faster? the audio works great though.

                          In what directory, of the RetroPie-Setup, did you paste the supermodel-mechafatnick.sh module-script ?
                          I think you have accidentally pasted it in the wrong supplementary directory, am I correct ?
                          Before installation you have to paste it in :
                          /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators .

                          For increasing speed you can try to select a low resolution for the emulator in the retropie-startup menu (in the same menu where you select the launch option).
                          The resolution selected there should match the selected launch option.
                          But you have to take it for granted, it will always be a bit slower than a good x86/x86-64 computer.

                            @folly It shouldn't be that slow though :)

                            I suggest keeping at the native res and stretching it. The super-duper long course causes stutters and slowdowns, but the rest should run reasonably nippily

                              Yes i have plaved it under supplementary, because before i have installed yabasanshiro and i had to place the script under supplementary. I thought that was the normal way (im a nooby).

                              What exactly do you mean with launch resolution? The resolution of the supermodel emulator? I had that at the lowest all the time. (396 pixel i think)

                              Now I've changed the global resolution of retropie to 480. At least the game is now full screen but still slow as hell. Every daytona 2 game seconds lasts 5 real seconds. I don't think you have the same low performance.

                              I have just tried scud racer. It doesn't start. The in game bios says no network and the game doesn't launch.

                              Btw Daytona 2 steering is really great with an arcade sticks.

                                Indeed it works quite smooth on my end.

                                I meant the "video mode" (aka "launch resolution").
                                But it seems you already discovered that.

                                For scud you have to go into the test-menu with key 6.
                                With key 5 you can go to options and with key 6 you can select an option.
                                Go to -> "game assignments" -> "link id" -> "single" (not master)
                                Go to "exit" for exiting the test menu.
                                Now scud will work in single mode.

                                For speeding things up you should ask @mechafatnick, because he has more experience with that part, I think.

                                      Right now im reinstalling it. Maybe because of the wrong folder in the beginning something's got messed up.

                                      Reinstalling from the right folder didnt help. Still slow like before.

                                        I think that your video-mode-resolution is much too high, as seen from the log.
                                        You should try a video mode with a lower resolution.
                                        Personally I think that should improve the speed.

                                          As said before im using the lowest resolution from supermodel3

                                          I've also tried to put the monitor into 480p mode via raspiconfig. Didn't help.
