Help! Attract Mode install guide!
-
Hello,
I really want the ability to have videos playing while scrolling through the main menu of systems. I currently have videos for my roms which is really nice. But now I want videos for my systems too. For whatever reason, I can't have system view video snaps for emulationstation. However, system video snaps are available in Attract Mode.I went ahead today and installed Attract Mode from the experimental packages via the RetroPie Setup menu.
Before installing Attract Mode, I updated RetroPie Setup Script, RetroPie and Rasbian. But after installing Attract Mode, there is no option to actually select Attract Mode. I've tried a couple of solutions I found online, but they didn't work.First I tried this but I got a "line 1 error message."

https://github.com/mickelson/attract/wiki/Compiling-on-the-Raspberry-Pi-(Raspbian-Jessie)I already know there are a few ways to install Attract Mode, but that requires a fresh install iamge. I'm currently using a very convenient tripple boot image with kodi, rasbian pixel and retropie and don't want to mess with that. I just want to install Attract Mode along with my current setup.
Is there an easy way to install Attract Mode from the RetroPie Setup menu and be able to select "restart in Attract Mode" option from RetroPie menu?
Thank you -
@yfresh59 bump! If anyone has any ideas, would be greatly appreciated. Or if someone can confirm that Attract Mode WILL NOT work with my tripple boot setup. If it doesn't work with my setup then I'll put Attract Mode to rest and stick with Emulation Station.
