looking at the Linux build it's already compiled. when i get the pi version to start building it stats that OpenBOR is not found more specifically that /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/openbor-fflns/OpemBOR is missing now i am going to try with the openbor that is able to be installed with the retropie setup and see if that works.

@mitu How are you, dear friend? I told you in my reply that I have installed Openbor from the retropie repositories, I changed the flags:
64bit gl vulkan x11

@ExarKunIv I attempted this unsuccessfully but will give it another shot.

The configs in openbor are not user readable / not in any way like a retroarch.cfg.

And like I referenced above, my openbor saves are for some reason saving to: /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/Saves

@mitu oh, so if it's exactly 8 characters, then...?

Huzzah!

EDIT: I've been using seven just because that's what GitHub likes to show me:

Is this good? https://github.com/s1eve-mcdichae1/RetroPie-Setup/commit/802ddfd0ed7ec31d483e3468d76fb8dd4896276a

Seems to work on quick test. Does it break anything else?

What's the smallest a commit sha can be and still work? Any reason not to just make it -gt 0?

@jimmyfromthebay Sorry. Experimental packages.

Install OpenBOR from RetroPie-Extra as a system rather than as a port and it should work fine.

I just tried He-Man (v1.6.0) and it ran perfectly.

@leonjordan i had a number of problems installing the openbor scriptmodules. i suggest you try RetroPie-Extra version of the openbor scriptmodule, which will install an up to date build (65xx) with ability to direclty launch .pak files without extracting them.

@zerojay The extensions were missing from es_systems.cfg in the openbor section; I just had to add them😊. It's launching now!!! Thank you so much for all your help guys. Really appreciate it.

@mitu

openbor on pi5 could be work?

@mitu That did the trick, thanks!

@mitu ok sorry, I thought it was a fairly simple operation to do (copy and paste) unfortunately I will never be able to get in touch with the builder authors. thanks anyway and sorry

@mitu said in openBOR can't install libpng12-dev on 4.6.1:

@Buckey-Jaw said in openBOR can't install libpng12-dev on 4.6.1:

I accidentally ran wget http://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/RetroPie-OpenBOR-scripts/master/openbor.sh -O /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/ports/openbor.sh

Accidentally, you say ?

was able to install this with no issue, but not showing ports in ES

You should post in this topic, where @cyperghost added this script, and add a link to the new installation log.

okay impatiently lol, I'll head over there, thanks!

@mitu This worked perfectly, thank you for all of your help. :)
