Hi i'm a first time poster here on the retropie forum but i have a question. would it be possible to add more solarus engien games to the retropie (manualy) if so how?

I tried, I wasn't successful. I installed solarus from source; made the data.solarus; checked to see if the perms worked, double checked to see if I got anything mixed up; I renamed all of the files and references; triple checked to see if I named everything right.

I don't know why it didn't work. I don't want to give you instructions that won't work. Unless someone else figures this out and shares it looks like we won't be able to add new solarus games.

@Efriim You can take a look at the script I prepared to add The Book of Mudora, and see if you can modify it to your needs.

I finally found the error file for the solarus game I installed and added. It says that the game was made for Solarus v1.50 and the Solarus version that retropie installed was only v1.45.

saccublenda that is a nice script, I notice It installs Solarus v1.53 so that will probably work very well for installing solarus games.

@Efriim Uh..., that was not me, it was @saccublenda.

@mitu
I noticed after, I was starting to accept that it was a name change, or you used to write scripts under a different name. Of course it was just megaman that I saw.

@Efriim Yes, the Mega Man avatar already caused some confusion before...
