Suggestions for ports

Looking at those commands I already have a sneaking suspicious that all my problems boiled down to not using rustup to install rust and just trying to use apt-get install... I am still getting a feel for all this and never have needed cargo or rust to compile from source yet.

@romhackfanatic thats where i started. i just followed the commands other people here posted to get games going, after doing it a few times i started seeing what i needed to do to mess with it my self.

here is a good list of clones that are out there. i went through it and started seeing what i could get to work and what i could not. it helped me get a small handle on how to get stuff working, but i still have much to learn -
Has anyone done "Monaco GP remake"?
There's Linux binaries, and given that it's a classic SEGA arcade game that has no CPU - it's not in MAME.
Still need the ROMs to run it.
I think it would be a good candidate for porting, especially since anyone with an arcade cab with a steering wheel is probably going to want it.http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=134445.0
Asking the author to open-source the code...

Just wanted to update for those in the future - I ABSOLUTELY GOT THIS WORKING FLAWLESSLY! I was able to get it compiled with the launcher just for anyone else who reads this.
Thanks so much exarkuniv for going out of your way to help and give such specific direction. I really can't thank you enough.
I'm curious... what's the process for creating an install script for the retropie project? Just off the top of my head, this and the Ultima VI engine 'Nuvie' I feel would be good candidates to be added. I'd love to give back and that seems something mroe than doable with the right background knowledge.

@romhackfanatic A port (or any other emulator) is installed through a scriptmodule - an install/configuration script that's part of RetroPie. You can see the existing ports' scripts in the project's repository here.

This maybe a dead end but does anyone use a proper Linux machine and have the standalone desmume emulator up and running? I know we have drastic and that works very well but I'm just curious if anyone has messed about with that version of desmume? I'm just wondering as if it's 32bit it may even be possible to run with box86?

the strange thing is that i also tried avp in my RPi3 and it has sound/audio there.

@retropi19 Latest Raspberry Pi OS updates have added Pulse Audio support, if you have the desktop installed then it will be installed and set as default sound output. Maybe AvP doesn't support it ?
i have the os fully updated installed sdl also did an rpi-update
Don't use
rpi-update
as a regular update mechanism, it's not advised unless you're trying to test the next beta firmware/kernel. -
@mitu still did not solve the problem,has anyone else tried it?
as i said in Rpi3 the sound works fine
installed pulseaudio and enabled it but now i have sound only from headphones
how do i get sound from the tv speakers??

@retropi19 said in Suggestions for ports:

I didn't say to install PulseAudio, I just suggested that, by updating your OS, you might have installed PulseAudio and it has taken over as sound output and AvP might not like it.
-
@mitu i did that but it did not work so installed pulse audio now i need to get the audio from the headphones to the speakers any suggestion?

Use the
Audio Settings
menu inRetroPie
and choose your audio output. -
@mitu i did that and i had only sound in headphones
-
@retropi19 If the problem is not specific to one Port, I suggest you open a new topic and add some details about your setup, including the info from https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
