@ExarKunIv @mitu appreciate the replies! thanks for the information! I will move on with other pi tasks. :)

@sleve_mcdichael ah I'm an idiot. I forgot to run the game before running the cat command. Will be back!

@dclegend By default, there are no onstart, onend scripts - it's an extension that can be used by users to add their own customizations.

Try to see if the program doesn't search the current folder for the file needed. This way, you can cd to the game's folder and run it from there.

@quicksilver I know this is an old topic, but the link seems to have changed. I was looking up the information for this issue and found this:

@quicksilver
Shame :\

@mitu It was there...until I reinstalled with the dispanx flag set...sorry about that.

So i added it back to the sorr directory and I can now get the game to launch using your original instructions. However the window is still just small in the upper left corner of the screen. :(

I've put a guide up here for SORR 5.2 and RetroPie 4.7.x - although this is with a Pi 3.
I'll do another one when I get a Pi4.

@darksavior said in Exit button AND video options in sorr Streets of Rage Remake?:

So in finding out there's going to be a sor4 and it looks absolutely horrible, I decided to reinstall sorr today. It's an old problem so I'm not sure if anyone's ever figured it out:

In "PC" mode, all video options are available but no Exit button.
In "PSP" mode, most video options are greyed out but it has an Exit button.
I tried the other modes but they don't seem to offer any differences.

Is there a way to have the best of both worlds?

Or @zerojay if you're not too busy, maybe you have a solution. Thanks.

I don't have any solutions. I knew about the PSP switch though but I think it disables multiplayer so I didn't use it.

@exarkuniv Thanks I will delete all the files and try changing the mode!

@mattrixk Thank you for confirming!

@Dochartaigh Is this the forum you're posting on?

Yes, that's the forum I posted on. Here's my post.

@backstander said in Streets of Rage Remake (SoRR) - How to SAVE, and any OpenBOR info?:

@enderandrew that's interesting! Have you had a chance to try this?

So basically they said to try this:

try deleting the existing .CFG files for a game and run it again so you get default settings

I don't have a PC to test on unfortunately (well, I do, kinda but I don't feed like formatting a USB stick, putting my Windows bootcamp image on it, and booting up my Mac in Windows anytime soon ;(

But the biggest problem the guys at Chronocrash told me is the files (besides the config and .PAK data file the fix you posted deals with) - like the actually .exe file (for lack of a better word) are built on an extremely old OpenBOR engine - so NONE of the new (or even years old it sounds like) .PAK's will run on it (if I understood them correctly). If it was newer I would definitely go through the trouble of trying this fix out on a PC but I'm pretty sure the base engine it's WAY too old to run any of their cooler new games (and the ones I'm playing in DOS from around 2004 are pretty limited to be honest...not enjoying them much).

I believe BuZz, one of the moderators here, is working on a recent OpenBOR build for the Pi but still has some kinks to work out.

I posted the working configs in my process thread here:
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/46824

But honestly, you'll benefit from doing the work yourself too. One of the things in particular is that the controller I'm using (Wireless Xbox360) is mapped on my device as Joystick #5, and Event #7. If you only have 1 controller, yours may be listed as something like Joystick #0 and Event #1 or something. Also, it looks like it's picking up a serial number or something in the actual device name, so it might not work at all. But you're more than welcome to give it a try, maybe you'll get lucky. Also, I'm using the default keyboard mapping in the game, so if you've changed it, you'll want to reset it.

I just double checked, and it doesn't look like the the port assignment is needed for anything more than identifying the actual button maps. The configuration uses by-id so it'll work no matter what port or joystick # it's assigned to. The only issues you'd have would be if the controller you're using ISN'T the same, and if the ID is incorporating a serial number.
