Some "compiling from source" emulators crashing

@darknior said in Some "compiling from source" emulators crashing:

Hi

Some of the emulators crash when i try to compile them from source.
Is some one who know to repair this can help me and UPDATE Retropi Setup script ?

RETROARCH : I can't update the engine from one month ago ... with all the news versions i can see on GIT, there are many improvements we can't use ...

what's the crash? you can find build logs in /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/logs/. are you running an overclock? what power supply? please fill out https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

I also have a question for RETROARCH i can't understand myself ... RETROARCH is the MENU to launch all the emulators CORE we use on PI. It is always the same because we only have one RETROARCH installed on the PI.
How is it possible i have the NEW BLUE menu on FB and the OLD GREEN on NES and others ???
I wish the MENU has not been include in the FB CORE ? ...

i guess you have edited or deleted /opt/retropie/configs/fba/retroarch.cfg, and it's using retroarch defaults rather than retropie. reinstall lr-fbalpha (by binary) and then delete /opt/retropie/configs/fba/retroarch.cfg, and then rename /opt/retropie/configs/fba/retroarch.cfg.rp-dist to /opt/retropie/configs/fba/retroarch.cfg

PPSSPP : We are blocked on the old 033676c version, the last v1.4+ correct many bugs an maybe the PAD configuration one. I love this emulator and it is working really fine on PI3 with many games ...

reinstall from source to get latest version.

Drastic (NDS) : There is only the BINARY installation, no source code possible to update ... why ?

because there is no source. it's closed-source.

NP2PI (PC9801) : Impossible to install from source, it crash, and no binary.

lr-hatari : Impossible to install from source, it crash, and no binary.

same questions as at the top :)

@darknior Usually the blue menu happens when you delete the cfg file of the emulator. If you reinstall the emulator, the old green one will come back. Update the retropie setup script. Then updated all installed packages. Works fine here.

Drastic is closed source. So all we get are binaries.

darknior

Yes i have update my CFG this night and try again FBA this morning and the GREEN MENU come back alone lol

Why are you using the green OLD MENU and not the NEW BLUE ? It is more beautiful :p
But i think i have some bugs to save some settings with it ...
To change and test it it's only a line to change in my retroarch.cfg file ?

So bad for Drastic, i wish it will evolve on PI ... because it is an fantastic emu, and the LR version is so slow :(

@darknior
the xmb menu is pretty but maybe performs worse with pi1/0. plus all the documentation is full of screenshots for the old menu. maybe we could switch at some point...

To change and test it it's only a line to change in my retroarch.cfg file ?

to change menu_driver is only a one line change, but if you're not using the default retropie-generated retroarch.cfgs you may get other problems. i would do as i instructed above.

darknior

@dankcushions I always use Retropie generated CFG files.
I edit some in SSH but no many, and only to copy or update a setting already tested from my PI on TV, but some time it is faster to do by hand in SSH when working on many systems at same time.
And now i have finally good understand how working CFG files and the order to respect for the include system :)

What is the option i must activate for the blue menu if i want to try it on my PI3 and make a feedback on the forum please ?

Darksavior

@dankcushions That would be nice to finally switch to the blue menu someday. 1.6.7 seems to have some menu performance optimizations but I don't have a pi1/0 to test.

menu_driver = "xmb"
to use the 'green menu', it's
menu_driver = "rgui"

darknior

@dankcushions : I'm using the last official image of Retropie DL on the site.
I'm not overclock my PI3 and use à 3A supply, with it i never see again the voltage icon on my TV :)
All other source compile fine, ES and many emulators ...
I only have a crash for these 3 entry ...

WOW thanks a lot, i see this option but not understand it lol

dankcushions

@darknior there are some strange errors at the end of that log, but i don't know if they're a problem.

retropie is hard-coded to build version v1.6.7 of retroarch (we don't get the latest nightly because it can break the various patches that we apply, but this does get updated regularly). is that's what you see when you open the menu? in which case, it's working as intended.

darknior

@dankcushions Ok fine, if it is normal i understand the reason.
Why not hide the RETROARCH source code update ? Because like we must respect the Team choice, the BINARY update is enough.

@dankcushions Ok fine, if it is normal i understand the reason.
Why not hide the RETROARCH source code update ? Because like we must respect the Team choice, the BINARY update is enough.

i don't know that the binary is ALWAYS updated at the same time as the script. plus it is one binary for all pi models (or maybe two, one for rpi1/0, one for rpi2/3, i forget), so you miss out on the unique compiler flags for the pi3, which may give a (probably unmeasurable) performance boost.

plus for me, it is easier to edit the retorach.sh file to make it build the latest nightly, which is useful for testing things. i don't want that to be hidden away.

@dankcushions Why my RETROARCH install crash ? Maybe i don't have the last one :(

@darknior said in Some "compiling from source" emulators crashing:

For NP2PI

It crash at the end when it not found a directory

https://gist.github.com/Darknior/eb3af61fb461366a9a41f52c290043fe

i think there's an error with the script here - i have a fix in mind and will look into this

dankcushions

@darknior for lr-hatari, i guess the retropie patch isn't working on the latest source code. paging @BuZz!

BuZz

@dankcushions I'll sort both issues. np2pi broke after I changed a build path the other day. the other is due to makefile changes upstream. But don't recommend lr-hatari emulator really.

BuZz

@darknior regarding the retroarch errors - Looks like you have a corrupt git checkout of the shaders - you should remove /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/shaders and re-install retro-arch. Corruption could point to sdcard problems.

I am also having issues with both np2pi and Commander Genius crashing while the installation script is running. I will place my relevant log files and error messages below.

Raspberry Pi 3B (not overclocked)
RetroPie 4.2.16
RetroPie installed on top of Raspbian
2.4A power supply

np2pi:

Could not successfully install NEC PC-9801 emulator
/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/np2pi/np2pi/bin/np2 not found

Commander Genius (shows as installed because it worked months ago, but updating currently fails and this has left cgenius unable to run):

Could not successfully install Commander Genius - Modern Interpreter for the Commander Keen Games (Vorticon and Galaxy Games)
/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/cgeneius/vfsroot/games not found

EDIT: Thank you BuZz! np2pi installation is now working for me.
