OpenBOR 6xxx OpenBeta Testphase

OliB

I guess I must do it at this section:

#TODO: Fill in all of the current RetroPie Emulator process names in this list.
emulatornames =

But, what is the correct name of openbor beta? Is it "OpenBOR OPENBETA" Same as the .sh file is named?

mitu

I think it's openbor or openbor-beta ?

OliB

@mitu openbor is already there. Try it with openebor-beta now
But did you think the section in the script is the right one?

Yes, there should be just one section with the emulator names.

@mitu @OliB No... it's OpenBOR
For that reason I don't like the python-script, every call has to be checked twice. Hence there will be a BGM Player inside ES I prefer and recommend the mpg123 method ;)

OliB

@cyperghost THX Try it now....

OpenBOR

YES !!! It Works THX to ALL

cyperghost

@OliB You're welcome
It would be better if the py script would check for a file like mutebgm
This file is created by runcommand-onstart.sh and will be removed by runcommand-onend
But I do not use that script so my interest in improve this script is very low. Maybe if I find some time.

OliB

@cyperghost Maybe I can give that a try.. if I find the time... ;-)

Hi guys I need help. Im running retropie 4.4.4 on Pi3b+. I've Installed the newest branch
from: wget http://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/OpenBOR-63xx-RetroPie-openbeta/master/scriptmodules/openbor-6xxx.sh -O /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/ports/openbor-6xxx.sh
After Restart ES, I go to ports menu and there was an entry named "OpenBor Beats of Rage Engine. After Start I, get this screen (see pic1)

Is this really the 6xxxxx Version?

THX

mitu

@OliB I think this is the normal screen when you start OpenBOR without parameters.

OliB

@mitu Sorry, I'm a noob and I'm a little bit confused. A few games are running well. Examples: Crisis Evil 1 & 2, but He-Man didn't start. Some questions:

What kind of parameters do you mean?
Which, let's say *.pak romsets are compatible with my installed version?
Is it mandatory to replace the OpenBOR EXE provided by darknior?

THX

cyperghost

@OliB if you installied 6xxx branch there should be a script OpenBOR - Module Selection you may set openbor 6xxx AS default Emulator for Rom. Press a button if loading screen appears and select proper Binary in UserMenu

Can someone upload a video how to install the newest version of OpenBOR to retropie?

It would really help alot of people! (including myself) on how to get this up and running.

cyperghost

@Winklepicker Why don't you use the scriptmodules provided here?
Just follow instructions and you've OpenBOR 6510-dev from Oct.2018 on your system. I do not update the patcher as long 6510 versions are in developing status. But you can compile on your own you want? Video instructions? For what? Half year later it is deprecated.

Just follow instructions and you've OpenBOR 6412-dev from Nov.2018 on your system. I do not update the patcher as long 6412 are in developing status. But you can compile on your own you want? Video instructions? For what? Half year later it is deprecated.

I did try that, but there is no sign of "OpenBOR" install in the "experimental packages" section, it does not show.

cyperghost

@Winklepicker there should be at least one entry from openbor as default install in exp section. Please recheck that

Hi
On the last Double Dragon game i have some bugs because it's made for the last OpenBOR build.
And i read they fix many problem on OpenBOR with the last build ... and the stable version 4.0 is coming too :)

http://www.chronocrash.com/forum/index.php?topic=4000.new;topicseen#new

Is some one as compiled the last build and can share it here ?
I'm always on the old Retropie v3 :p

cyperghost

@darknior I have OpenBOR 6510-dev 4month ago compiled here
You may do the newest compile on your own... I hope for a new release, too and will provide patches asap. I think it does not make much sense to rely on dev-branches.

Unfortunately I dont see anything in regards to OpenBOR install in the exp packages section
