Openbor on Rasperry 5
-
@retro777
yes since the openbor-v5 will only work on the Pi5. i have it written that way
and yes its only on retropie.so a few questions.
1 what did you follow when you built your system. (instrustions)?2 do you have a desktop
3 do you have the
kernel=kernel8.imgin the config.txt?4 can you post the runcommand output. look for it here after you try running a game
/dev/shm/runcommandit will help me see whats going onsince there is no offical image yet. i have to see what you are running
i use the unoffical image from here or used to be there. the links are not working at this time
so my sruff might be different then yours -

1 what did you follow when you built your system. (instrustions)?my pi5 system already built in SDcard.(.iso image)
2 do you have a desktop
yes. but my setting is now not desktop running on startup (console emulation station only)
3 do you have the
kernel=kernel8.imgin the config.txt?boot/firmware/config.txt is here
[all]
kernel=kernel8.img
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
config_hdmi_boost=11
hdmi_drive=2
hdmi_safe=1
hdmi_force_edid_audio=14 can you post the runcommand output. look for it here after you try running a game
/dev/shm/runcommandit will help me see whats going onsince there is no offical image yet. i have to see what you are running
i use the unoffical image from here or used to be there. the links are not working at this time
so my sruff might be different then yourssudo nano /dev/shm/runcommand
create new file appeared!btw, my pi5 running on NVME SSD. SD card to NVME SSD boot changing

where did you get it@retro777 said in Openbor on Rasperry 5:
sudo nano /dev/shm/runcommand
not what i ment.
in the /dev/shm/ folder. you will have a runcommand.txt. i need whats in that.@retro777 said in Openbor on Rasperry 5:
yes. but my setting is now not desktop running on startup (console emulation station only)
hmm for me to really say i need the runcommand.txt. but there is a chance that you having a desktop even though its not running is the problem
-
dear @ExarKunIv
after openbor runnning on emulation station..
pi@retropie5:/dev/shm $ sudo nano runcommand.log
but not shown (empty files)
/dev/shm
-ls
runcommand.log
onlyでも、デスクトップが起動していないのにデスクトップが表示されていることが問題なのかもしれません。
no, my situation is...
x-window only runnning when i xstart command.
default is only emulationstation. -
@retro777 im going to agree with that. i think since you have desktop even if not enabled. it does not play nice with that system.
i never make or test any of the scripts with desktop since any of the official images of retropie don't have it. and then they say something might not work correctly if retropie is installed over a desktop -
@ExarKunIv thanks
how do i enable runcommand.log...? -
@retro777 thats the thing. it is auto when you start a game. be it from NSE, SEGA or a port.
since something is different on your build the emulator.cfg is not working as it should
it does not make anything since its not even starting -
@ExarKunIv
retroarch core will appear runcommand.log
but can't show when runnning openbor..
this is very strange things,,, sad
Parameters:

</system>and openbor-v5 config directory is empty, this is right? openbor directory had config files.
-
@retro777 you need to look in the openbor-v5 folder and see what that emulator.cfg says.
also you said you install this from a image. where did you get it from?
-
@ExarKunIv
i copied emulators.cfg to openbor-v5 folder
cfg files include...
openbor-v5 = "/opt/retropie/emulators/openbor-v5/OpenBOR %ROM%"same error,
run
runcommand.log not shownRetropie iso image get was internet forum.
-
@retro777 yes that is correct.
at this point it is something with the image you are using.
since there is no official image yet. it was made by some extremely amazing person here.
and i think you will have to ask them.i think it has something to do with having a desktop. since the image im using does not have one. and openbor works correctly
-
@ExarKunIv desktop not running on default( i was setting)
but, relation of this things?
I am very sad -
@retro777 i dont know. i dont use or have desktop on my images. so i cant test it.
with the images that are as close to what a stock retropie image would be. it works just fine.the script installs what it needs and it works. since there is no runcommand.log there is not much i can go off of.
since you have the .pak files in the openbor folder that is in the roms folder and retropie sees that from what your pic showed.
and you posted what the emulators.cfg is (granted you should of not needed to move anything) the script puts what it needs, where it needs it.all you need to do is put the files in the right folder
-
again qestion
open bor rom folder is
/retropie/roms/openbor
or
/retropie/roms/ports/openborwhich right ?
-
@retro777 said in Openbor on Rasperry 5:
/retropie/roms/openbor
for both my scripts this is the current location.
for the one that is in the ports folder. that is from the one that is included in Retropie.
i have not tested to see if that one worked or not.
i only focus on the ones i maintain -
@ExarKunIv
thanks, rom folder move to /retropie/roms/openbor
I'll try it. -
@retro777
also since you have 2 versions installed. you have to make sure that openbor-v5 is the one being used to run the romswhen you start a rom you have to press A to open the runcommand.
here for more info https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/
in there you have to make sure that openbor-v5 is the one selected as the emulator being used -
@ExarKunIv
thanks anyway
I'll also try them -
@retro777 try A or joystick button, but same problems...
very strange my situation.
run openbor game, no appear runcommand menu, look like other NES,MD or more.My environment does not seem to go through Runcommand, only OPENBOR.
-
@retro777 what do screen do you get when you try starting a game.
Do it look like what the link in my past post looks like?.
It will be a gray box . You press A at that point and it will open the runcommand where you can pick what to useYou can also try uninstall the other openbor. So there is only one.
Other than that. I have no idea. Something is very strange with your system.
Not sure how setup your system is. But you can always try a different image. That's floating around here
