      @bizzar721 Can you post output of runcommand log?

      please try this
      sudo apt-get install -y libsdl-gfx1.2-5

      This is the sdl-gfx for Rpi fixed

      After that you can try to install SDL2 as @zanac mentioned with
      sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev

        I will do. Are you saying this binary is compiled to accept launching command (as in how it's currently set up)? Or should I use the "vanilla" openbor I set up? I also tested with .PAK and .bor folders.

        EDIT
        Using OpenBOR with game selection script here is the runcommand log:

        Parameters: 
Executing: pushd /opt/retropie/ports/openbor; /opt/retropie/ports/openbor/OpenBOR "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/openbor/Battletoads & Double Dragon IV - The Return of the Dark Forces.bor"; popd
/opt/retropie/ports/openbor ~/RetroPie/roms/ports/openbor
/opt/retropie/ports/openbor/OpenBOR: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2_gfx-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
~/RetroPie/roms/ports/openbor

          @bizzar721 I assume this binary is vanilla. So it will accept PAKs only via its own launching menu. But if the menu is up it will run every game. The CLI can be patched later. I think it would help if you post content of error log.

          If you have used the first fix you can try to run the pikiss openbor binary, too
          I have saved it for later use. It is downloadable from here

          https://github.com/crcerror/RetroPie-OpenBOR-scripts/tree/master/binary

          You can also Google for pikiss openbor then you see the install script which installs sdlgfx fix

            You must install gfx of sdl2 that command is gfx sdl1

              @zanac so it is
              sudo apt-get install libsdl2-gfx
              Or
              sudo apt-get install libsdl2-gfx-1.0-0
              And
              sudo apt-get install libsdl2-gfx-dev

              Can you please correct my commands and tell @BiZzAr721 how to do?

                Didn't know you guys were working on building an updated OpenBOR engine. Exciting news! I was going through and installing games while updating my spreadsheet for compatibility earlier today. Got up to "C". Maybe I'll wait and re-do it to see if the broken games work.

                Who's Scruffy Looking?

                  @hansolo77 yes and we hope it will work. The error output of @BiZzAr721 seems that we are hopefully on the right track. Sadly I do not have access to my Pie till end of next week so I just do guessing here. @zanac is the most asked man in this thread now.

                  @BiZzAr721 as we are using a precompiled method there is no need for sdl2-dev (IMHO)

                      Using
                      sudo apt-get install libsdl2-gfx-dev & sudo apt-get install libsdl2-gfx-1.0-0
                      here is the runcommand log from zanec's gl openBOR:

                      Parameters: 
Executing: pushd /opt/retropie/ports/openbor; /opt/retropie/ports/openbor/OpenBOR; popd
/opt/retropie/ports/openbor ~
/opt/retropie/ports/openbor/OpenBOR: error while loading shared libraries: libvpx.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
~

                      I used pikiss setup script and let it set up dependencies and installed OpenBOR (moved binary from /home/pi/games/openbor) which worked.

                      Tried zanac's GL version again and received same runcommand log error.

                        @BiZzAr721 how does the pikiss open or behaves? Do save games work? Does it use pak files? Is it slow and last which revision it is?

                        I think it is possible to get newest revision to run. Now you can Google how to install the missing sdl2 depencies.

                        Thank you for your tries

                        Edit about libvpx there is a guide

                          @zanac I am not a real help at the moment - I have no access to my Pi the next 10 days. So I would be glad if you can help @BiZzAr721 ... There is a new dependecie needed libvpx. It is for video encoding.

                            i confirm, the new version use libvpx and also a new vorbis decoder.... just use apt-get, it's very easy to solve these problems! Guys, just study a little use of linux!!!! ;)

                                @zanac I believe you that it is running - in a few hours @BiZzAr721 will surly post his out findings. I guess he is eating something in the moment or does something mad with his parachute. But as you said we need another video encoder then I think we are on the right track.

                                  It was a video just for fun, anyway please dont worry about resolution i will share a new binary soon that will be better on rpi, that GL version is for old crt tv that i use with pandora box (allwinner) inside My arcade cab

                                    @zanac Thank you for coming on board and sharing.

                                    It was 2:30am when I tested that last time. I'm out with family for the day, but I will do some more testing tonight. Please let me know anything else you believe will be useful. I might not be skilled in linux and the various commands but I am good at problem solving. I am glad to be able to contribute.

                                      I'm the manteiner of openpb4, retropan Project, a porting of retropie for allwinner Board, actually i think that My skill is good enough for help also official retropie Project will enjoy new openbor. I also made some patch in emulation station that were included after some test in official retropie so this is not a new Experience for me.

                                        @zanac I saw in your video that you call single pak files just via selection menu. Do you use a script file that renames or moves the pak files or are you using the method (I prefer) like @darknior did. Call the files directly with OpenBOR /rompath/filename.pak

                                        Darknior made a small but clever C patch to trick the command line.

                                          but not included in this binary!

                                          Here you are a new release... in this i removed the force of 384x224 and is needed for allwinner chipset:

                                            Pikiss is using OpenBoR v3.0 Build 3016
                                            Saves not working (tried with Golden Axe Death Adder at level 3)
                                            Very similar to what we already have

                                            Using Zanac's Binary and the guide you linked me too

                                            libvpx.so.1 still didn't fix it

                                            I will try the files from this git - maybe it will work
                                            https://github.com/volumio/RootFS-RaspberryPI/tree/master/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf

                                            I will be out for the day again, but I will try to have some results tonight

                                            EDIT
                                            Tried files from the git - here's runcommand.log

                                            Parameters: 
Executing: pushd /opt/retropie/ports/openbor; /opt/retropie/ports/openbor/OpenBOR; popd
/opt/retropie/ports/openbor ~
/opt/retropie/ports/openbor/OpenBOR: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libvpx.so.1: file too short
