@ExarKunIv Thank you man, let me check that at home tonight.

ExarKunIv · 7 Dec 2022, 20:13

im doing a clean load to do a good test today, to do more testing on all my scripts. so i will be testing that one to make sure all is good

i did test both
rott-darkwar.sh and
rott-huntbgin.sh

both work fine now, just drop the resolution to what works for your screen

NIGHTKILLER05 · 13 Jul 2022, 12:55

@ExarKunIv It worked like a charm, thank you (an also thanks to @sleve_mcdichael ) !!!

Hey, can I suggest a port? It would be great if you could port "Heretic II" to the PI, oh, and also "Zandronum" and the "Raze" engine, based on Gzdoom.

Thank again guys you are making great things here!

No problem. We do try to address any problems that come up.

Hey, can I suggest a port? It would be great if you could port "Heretic II" to the PI, oh, and also "Zandronum"

Only if someone has made a Linux version of them, I have no idea on how to do the programming to make games work on different systems, we just find the people who know and make install scripts to make it easy for everyone else.

but i can look around

"Raze" engine, based on Gzdoom.

I did try to get Raze in the past to work, but it was a pain in the ass since it needed a compiler called RUST, but that was a year ago, so i can take a look into it again

Thank again guys you are making great things here!

If you ever come across anyone who has made something that does work on linux. You can always suggest it and we can give it a shot.

Hey, If anyone is interested in making work Hexen II's Portal of Praevus expansion pack, you need to clone the existing sh file to launch the game, rename the new file to something like "Hexen II Mission Pack Portal of Praevus.sh" and add "-portals" at the end of this line:

 #!/bin/bash
"/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh" 0 _PORT_ "hexen2" "-portals"

After that, you need to modify this file "#!/bin/bash
"/opt/retropie/configs/ports/hexen2/emulators.cfg" adding the variable "%ROM%" like this:

hexen2 = "/opt/retropie/ports/hexen2/glhexen2 %ROM% -f -conwidth 800 "
default = "hexen2"

Almost forgot, you need to make a folder called "portals" inside "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/hexen2/" and copy the following files from your Portal of Praevus CD (the "music" folder is optional, more info about the music in http://uhexen2.sourceforge.net/music.html):

"

And that's it, now you can launch the mission pack from the Hexen II Mission Pack Portal of Praevus.sh script.

ExarKunIv · 14 Jul 2022, 15:38

@NIGHTKILLER05 for some reason or the other I must of pulled that out of the script in the main repo, since it is included from the original script maker

i will re-add it, since it should be there. Good catch

(i cant keep it all straight, lol )

NIGHTKILLER05 · 14 Jul 2022, 20:50

@ExarKunIv Speaking of ports, I am unable to make nblood work properly, I was able to play some minutes, after that I did try to make "cryptic passage of Blood" work , with no avail, with this .sh file:

#!/bin/bash
"/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh" 0 PORT "nblood" -ini CRYPTIC.INI
Then I did try to re-install and the installer menu shows this error:

Help me please, Blood is one of the best bloody FPS games of the 90's !!!!

ExarKunIv · 14 Jul 2022, 21:08

@NIGHTKILLER05 i have not finished cryptic passage for it yet. but the main game works just fine

ExarKunIv · 19 Jul 2022, 18:34

Time for a big update on whats going on with RetroPie_Extras

First we now have a GUI menu to install the scripts. It is still a WIP so please let @sleve_mcdichael what you think and what needs to be added or improved.

we decided to go that way since we are adding more scripts to this repo it is causing the main RP menu to be laggy when you first get into it. If you have everything install

so now you can pick what you want to install and what to leave out.

But if you just like to have everything install with just one command, the old install way it still there.

./mass-install-extras.sh is now what you use.
Everything else has stayed the same

I have been going through each script and testing them all, some I have removed due to them just not working or whatever they are now in RetroPie-Extra-unstable.

I will be moving anything that gets broken there to keep Extras clean

so now you can pick what you want to install and what to leave out.

To add some context, this isn't about actually having the packages "installed" in RetroPie. Just having them "exist" is enough to slow it down. When retropie_packages.sh is called, either explicitly or indirectly via retropie_setup.sh, it includes packages.sh via source and then runs rp_registerAllModules:

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/retropie_packages.sh#L57

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/retropie_packages.sh#L61

This in turn includes via source every module in the RetroPie-Setup directory.:

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/f271ce9dee01fb224aaac44d6e9c1230d1ab5087/scriptmodules/packages.sh#L906

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/f271ce9dee01fb224aaac44d6e9c1230d1ab5087/scriptmodules/packages.sh#L880-L1013

This is done so that functions from one module can be made available to another module without duplicating the code.

The consequence of this is that, the more modules there are to include, the longer it takes to source them all and so the initial loading time of retropie-setup.sh is proportional to that amount. The more modules that merely exist in RetroPie-Setup, the longer it will take to load the setup utility.

My first solution was simply to manually copy only those individual scripts from RP-Extra that I actually intend to use. But I figured others might also benefit from this and so I took the learning opportunity to create the GUI installer script that you see today :)

Please try it out. Try to break it. Let me know if you succeed, and how :)

JimmyFromTheBay · 26 Jul 2022, 15:10

Having trouble with a couple of things in RetroPie-Extra.

HEBORIS: installs and runs, but most of the sound is missing and the game only runs in a tiny corner of the screen, even if you set it to 640x480 in Runcommand.

TEXMASTER2009: installs and runs, but again only in a tiny corner even if you set it to 640x480 in Runcommand, and there doesn't seem to be any ingame fullscreen option. There's a config-file option but I can't find where the game has installed to - it's not in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports like most ports are - so I have no idea where to edit it.

(Also it runs with a message saying "Raspberry Pi GPIO Disable. (Need to be root.)". I have no idea whether this is something I should be concerned about.)

WIZZNIC: Seems to install but then nothing happens - you get booted straight back to ES. Again I can't tell WHERE it's installed - I tried adding a folder called "wizznic" in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports with the game files in it but that had no effect.

ExarKunIv · 26 Jul 2022, 15:23

@JimmyFromTheBay for all of them you need to update the RP-E as i just updated everything

but

HEBORIS works or for me it does in full screen, not sure about the sound as my setup has no speakers

TEXMASTER2009 has been removed due to only small screen and no fix found
WIZZNIC has been removed due to only small screen and no fix found

I updated it about 15m before I posted that comment.

HEBORIS works or for me it does in full screen, not sure about the sound as my setup has no speakers

Hmm, mysterious. Where does it install to? I'll see if I can find a config file or something.

TEXMASTER2009 has been removed due to only small screen and no fix found

Bah. There's a thread elsewhere on the forum about installing it directly which includes a pic of someone running it in fullscreen, will try that method instead.

that is a very old post, things and software has changed so things that worked 5 years ago in full screen, most likely will not anymore, which is why we need to use XINIT

but give it a try, if you can get it to work in fullscreen i can update the script to do so

EDIT
but since @zerojay already was on that post, and he is the one who wrote the script to start with. most likely its not going to work

ExarKunIv · 26 Jul 2022, 21:23

Ladys and Gentalmen it is time for a Big Update

First @sleve_mcdichael has updated our new GUI interface for installing RP-E. Now we can pick what section we want to install instead of installing everything, Or if there is only a few things you want to install you can pick just the ones you want.

Please give it a try and let us know what you all think. Soon moving forward that will be the only way to install the scripts.

I will be removing the Old way in the near future.

Now for the good stuff.

I have gone and installed and tested every script. I have removed all that dont work/build, or ones that only play in a small window. they are now in RetroPie-Extra-unstable

Here is the current list of the working scripts that I have gone through. I only tested this on a 27" monitor so if there are any screen size issues on bigger screens I can only do so much

NOTES
ECWOLF installs, but something is wrong with the patch file that fixes the missing esc key. Im working on that
OPENDUNE the config file it not installing correctly, also working on that

To get full screen on most of these if you dont know you need to drop the resolutions in the RUNCOMMAND screen to whatever size looks good for you.

Soon moving forward that will be the only way to install the scripts.

I will be removing the Old way in the near future.

Just a note that the new install script does incorporate -a and -r flags for users who still require a non-interactive terminal command to add or remove all RP-Extra scripts without using the GUI.

Usage:

    ./install-extras.sh [-u|--update] [option] [rp_setup_directory]

Options:
    -a  --all       Add all RetroPie-Extra modules (may severely impact the
                    loading time of RetroPie-Setup and retropiemenu configuration
                    items, especially on slower hardware)
    -r  --remove    Remove all RetroPie-Extra modules (does not "uninstall" the modules
                    in RP-Setup)
    -h  --help      Display this help and exit

I wish I could figure out what I'm doing wrong with this one. It acts exactly like Texmaster does in terms of only playing in a tiny window, and nothing I try fixes it.

I did notice that the error message it displayed while installing/uninstalling referenced ZeroJay rather than Exarkuniv, no idea if that's significant.

but give it a try, if you can get it to work in fullscreen i can update the script to do so

I found the install directory and the config file, and changed it to fullscreen rather than a window, but it made no discernible difference. There were permissions warnings when I edited the file, but it still seemed to save the changes.

ExarKunIv · 27 Jul 2022, 01:09

@JimmyFromTheBay post what your ''emulation.cfg'' has in it.

As this point I'm going with some how you are installing a old script.

Or better yet. Post the whole install script, that way we can see what one you are using.
I'm going with you are changing the resolution through the runcommand, correct?

	#!/bin/bash
	"/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh" 0 _PORT_ "hexen2" "-portals"
