      @ExarKunIv I'm probably late to the party, but I'm here trying to install SoRR too, on Raspberry 4, but the libpng12 is not installing at all. I'm not sure I can just get one of the files from here and install manually.
      Aren't these supposed to be for x86?? They're mentioned in the guide and recommended to be used to install, but I'm not finding something that I'm sure will be compatible with Bookworm.
      (Running bookworm instead of the default retropie distro for hardware compatibility)

          Uh... While looking into the bennu forums out of curiosity, I found this. Seems like it came out in january.
          https://github.com/diekleinekuh/BennuGD_libretro

          I wonder if it works at all for this. Won't work for me because now i'd have to choose between 32 and 64 bits, both of them with something missing. :/

            @Azuli yes i already have that in my repo. if you dont see it. you need to update it on your system

            why its not working on your system i cant say. im only testing on my pi5. and when i will go back to my pi4 it will just to test on the official image which is buster

              @ExarKunIv if you mean the "SoRR2" option on retropie extra, it is asking for "libpng12", which I couldn't yet find a way to install on bookworm. I'm looking into that still
              (need my install to NOT be buster, because then my screen won't work as intended. Still need to try bullseye for some middle ground)

              Edit: bullseye doesn't work either with my screen. I'm gonna try installing what I need then updating to bookworm. The twists and turns I'm going through are insane.

                No, they mean lr-bennugd.

                  I have installed this on my Pi4B+ again to see if any changes were made. I noticed that the unlockables (weapons, lives, characters, and other extras) saved in the SoR.dat file are now working. The only portion that seems to cause a crash is when you load the Streets of Rage Maker option. That means that any stages created by a developer won't work (for now). I'm hoping that someone will eventually fix that. Does anyone know if that will be possible? Thanks.

                    Here is an interesting link.
                    Seems it's possible to build bgdi also as standalone for 64 bit.

                      I updated the sorrv2 emulator. It seems to have created a SorMaker.sh file in the Ports folder. When I created it into a .txt file to open it, I noticed that it used the following commands: #!/bin/bash
                      "/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh" 0 PORT "sorr" "./SorMaker.dat"

                      I went ahead and corrected the folder name (0_PORT_ "sorrv2") so it would load the necessary files, but I received the following error upon checking the runcommand.log in /dev/shm:

                      waiting for X server to shut down (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.

                      I followed the folder path (/opt/retropie/ports/sorrv2/sorrv2.sh) and noticed that all the files were there, except for SorMaker.dat. Since the sorrv2 folder in this directory did not have write permissions, I tried using the sudo chmod 777 sorrv2 command. I made a copy of the SorMaker.dat (from the /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/sorrv2 folder). After copying it to /opt/retropie/ports/sorrv2, I clicked the SorMaker.sh option in the Ports section, but unfortunately the same error I mentioned above appeared. I'm not sure if the .dat file is not version 7 DCB compatible, but I'm guessing that it could be the problem.

                      If anyone has an idea of what to do, please let me know. Thanks for your suggestions. I also have a Pi5, so if a build of sorrv2 becomes available for it, I'll see if I can try it out.

                        Searched your repo but can't find it.
                        Which file is it ?

                          It's in the main RetroPie repository now, hence has been removed from the extras.
