Return to Castle Wolfenstein - IORTCW source port
-
Guess i am going to have to wait for the RPI 8B to play the 2009 Wolfenstein port lol
-
Is there a list anywhere of ports that aren't distributed in RetroPie like this one? I've already found some for Shadow Warrior and Rise of the Triad, but I was wondering if anybody else knew of others.
Edit : I'm trying to install this port on my Pi 3 B using the tutorial. When I try to build it from the experimental section of RetroPie-Setup, I get this error :
'Could not successfully install RTCW - IORTCW source port of Return to Castle Wolfenstein.
(/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/rtcwSP/build/release-linux-arm/iowolfsp.arm not found)'Is this a known issue? How do I fix it?
-
@Zering I think it is because of the changes that have occurred in the source, it would be necessary to make changes in the installation script, it was also working well for me on a Raspberry pi 4 and it stopped working, that's why I proposed the changes to the message that there is higher in this thread.
Try to modify the script that you have downloaded with the modifications that I proposed and if you do not know how to approach it you are waiting for tpo1990 to review it or I will send you the one that I use in some way.
-
@Cesarpuig How do I modify the script, and what am I modifying?
I'm happy to learn but I don't have the foggiest clue how to do this. -
@Zering not to discourage you, but it may be best to wait for an official fix then.
-
@Zering in this link you have the script that I use to install it:
Update: rtcw.sh
Replace it with the one in the following folder of your rpi
/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/portsTry to install and comment please, I will help you in any way I can
Your tests will serve the rest because I have tried it on an rpi4, and I think I remember that your case was an rpi3
-
@Cesarpuig Sure thing.
Can I access this folder from a PC, however?
-
@Zering Yes with SSH software (in my case I use FileZilla Client), but I think it is not a good idea to extend this topic in this thread, it deviates from the subject and it is not necessary, there will be several threads in the forum such as transferring files through SSH, and many tutorials on the internet, it will be more graph to try to explain it to you from here. If you comment on any, do not hesitate to refer me and I repeat, I will help you as much as I can
-
@Cesarpuig All right, I think I've figured it out, I'm rebooting and trying to build the port again. I will update this post with the results in a bit.
Edit : It doesn't work. It fails to install as before. I get a different error though :
'Could not successfully install RTCW - IORTCW source port of Return to Castle Wolfenstein.
(/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/rtcw/SP/build/release-linux-armv71/iowolfsp.arm71 not found)'I guess it is possible I did something wrong though.
-
@Zering you can try to use my file (forked from tpo1990) with the updated scripts
https://github.com/tacgnol3/RTCW-RPI/blob/master/rtcw.sh
I didn't tried to install from scratch, but i updated by build without problem with this.
-
forgot to add, i disabled the config in my version since i added the venom mod and manually tweaked the config. if you are interested, don't forget to uncomment those 2 lines.
-
@Zering Give me time and tomorrow I will try on a raspberry pi 3b, tell me your OS version and retropie ?, I will try the original script that created @ tpo1990, and the one that I have modified by me, also the installation has created a log in the address / home / pi / RetroPie-Setup / logs /, or something similar, I speak from memory, where there will be more information about the problem, please publish it.
-
@tacgnol Those modifications are the ones I made. What raspberry pi are you installing it on?
-
@Cesarpuig rpi4
yeah, I just wanted to have something ready to go/download while tpo1990 is tweaking his own script. Thanks for those info by the way !
-
@tacgnol thanks to you for answering, you have tried it on a rpi4 just like me, tomorrow I will try it on jna rpi3, and I comment
-
@tacgnol Thanks, I'd like to try your script but I can't find the two lines you've mentioned. I looked at cesarpuig's script for comparison and both look identical?
@Cesarpuig I'm on a Retropie 3 B+, running on Raspbian GNU/Linux 9.11
I've got version 4.6.Here is the log of RTCW's installation :

@Zering
I have tried on my raspberry pi 3, with retropie 4.18 and raspbiam strech, and I have the same problem, none of the scripts nor the previous one from tpo1990 works, nor the modifications that I have added to make it work on my raspberry pi 4, I think that there are two options:1st clone a previous commit.
2nd Open an issue in the iortcw repository.
For the moment I am going to opt for the second and I comment.
EDIT:
I have opened an issue in the iortcw repository, if we cannot solve it so we will try to clone a previous commit that we know works -
@Cesarpuig How do we clone a previous commit?
I'd be very happy to test anything, I'm very eager to play this, I've been wanting to play it since its release in 2001 ^^
-
@Zering Sorry, I forgot to mention that I used the rpi4 in my previous answer to you.
I haven't tested on rpi3 with the new script, but it seems this morning a bug report has been filled :)
My script used the exact procedure explained by @Cesarpuig .
-
@Zering I don't know how to do it from retropie (raspbian), I am not familiar with this operating system, today I have done some tests and manually compile and build it but I don't know how to do it from the script, tomorrow I will do some more tests
