      Good to see to tackle the issues one-by-one.

      FTR I have the gmloader scriptmodule ready for RPI5, I am running a few last tests and when I am satisfied I will file a PR.

        @Lolonois cool. That was one on my list.

          @ExarKunIv I have broken out a separate thread, it is quite a change and I don't want to have the discussion mixed with your progress in this thread: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/36501/run-spelunky-and-other-android-game-maker-games-on-pi5-arm64

          PS: Have a look at your commit bfe5d28. It downloads the same file again and again.

            When you first run it or when you run it again after you have it installed

              UPDATE

              • [Y] -
                aethersx2 Ps2 emulator - has had a few small edits to it.

              If I already have Aethersx2 up and running on my Pi 5 (and it's actually working really well!) is there any reason to add these updates?

                @DTEAM Did you ever try to figure this one out? I've done some digging and all I found was this:

                https://forum.armbian.com/topic/28345-aethersx2-opengl-is-not-supported-only-opengl-30-was-found/

                Seems like whatever we need might be found in whatever "libgl4es" but I can't get it to install.

                There are some PS2 games that work GREAT in "Software Renderer" mode, which you can switch into once you load the game, but there doesn't seem to be a way to start that game in software renderer mode without getting that error.

                              Whenever you run the gmloader scriptmodule (configure) again.

                                @Lolonois ok, thats a easy fix, we just need to add a if function.
                                that can be done once we get the Pi5 version up and going

                                  i was able to install this, but when i change it to OpenGL a error pops up saying cant run, only opengl3.1 is found. so im not sure what it should do if anything on what we run

                                  as far as i know "libgl4es" is for openGL and will have nothing to do with the software driver

                                    @ExarKunIv That's the same error I get. It's weird that you can switch to the software rendered when inside of a game but you can't load a game using the software renderer.

                                      This emulator was not built for the pi. It just happens to work on it. So somethings things just didn't play nice as it would on the platform it was designed for

                                        To be honest, that's kind of what I figured. But I'd also throw it out there to see if anyone was able to find a hack or workaround to make that work. I have exhausted all of my efforts and I appreciate anyone else that tried.

                                        Switching in game isn't a huge deal, you just have to keep track of which ones run under software and which ones under hardware.

                                          @TPR it's possible as more people use it and more time passes someone will figure out how to have per game settings
