Dreamcast mvc2 crashing at stage 2

tackett1980

Ok on the way home from work will give that a try.

rejesterd

@tackett1980 Sounds good. If it doesn't work, I have one more thing for you to try (which is to just update the retropie-setup to pull from the newer branch). Then there will be no fiddling with config files that way.. you'll just replace one file under the ~/RetroPie-Setup directory and then install it from source using the standard retropie_setup.sh. I didn't suggest this before because it's typically better to append an existing installation than to modify it, but in this case, it seems warranted.

@rejesterd

You know what’s odd?

The new binary and the binary .sh file are both gone....

That’s really weird. I did not delete them.

rejesterd

Interesting.. maybe the retropie-setup script did that. It did that to me on redream if I recall correctly.

I think the new way I've found to perform the installation should work better. I just want to blow away my existing reicast installation first, then reinstall (to make sure the steps I give you are correct). I'll come back to this later tonight.

In the meantime, you can do the same (uninstall reicast using the retropie_setup.sh, then just take a look at /opt/retropie/configs/dreamcast/emulators.cfg, and manually remove any reicast entries that may still be in there. That should get you ready to run the updated installation script that I'll post here later.

rejesterd

Ok, hopefully this will do it..

Steps to install the correct version of reicast on RetroPie (i.e. build from the 'stable' branch, not the abandoned 'master' branch):

1.) Run RetroPie-Setup > Manage Packages > Manage Optional Packages > reicast > Remove.

2.) Open /opt/retropie/configs/dreamcast/emulators.cfg in a text editor, and remove any lines pertaining to reicast. Then save the changes.

3.) Make a backup copy of ~/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/reicast.sh. Either copy it to your Windows machine, or copy it to to your home directory on the pi (/home/pi/).

4.) Open ~/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/reicast.sh in a text editor, and replace it with my version of the script shown here

5.) Run RetroPie-Setup > Manage Packages > Manage Optional Packages > reicast > Install from source

If it still doesn't work after that, open emulators.cfg in a text editor again (as you did in step 2), and see if the reicast line specifies the variables %XRES% and %YRES%. If it does, replace those with 640 and 480. Here's my emulators.cfg for reference:

default = "redream"
lr-flycast = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-flycast/flycast_libretro.so </dev/null --config /opt/retropie/configs/dreamcast/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"
redream = "/opt/retropie/emulators/redream/redream %ROM%"
reicast-audio-alsa = "/opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin/reicast.sh alsa %ROM% 640 480"

tackett1980

@rejesterd

Doing the steps now.

tackett1980

@rejesterd

It could not build...

rejesterd

:( I'd have to look at the build log then.. I'm doing this blind with respect to the Pi3. That will be under ~/RetroPie-Setup/logs/.. it should be the newest one if you sort them by date. Put it up on wetransfer.com if you want, and I'll take a look.

tackett1980

@rejesterd

I’m workin on it here. It says it can’t find the .elf in the Linux dir. which, in fact it is gone.

I had the file backed up so I transferred it over and going to give the install another shot.

tackett1980

@rejesterd

Ok, even though it’s there it still says it isn’t there.

I thought I’d go ahead and update the setup script to see if that would fix the issue and it won’t do that either. Something about save my work something is open and try again.

I’m crashing for the night going to take a stab at it again in the morning.

rejesterd

Well, the .elf is the file you're building (it just gets copied from 'reicast.elf' to 'reicast' when the build completes). So you don't want to use an old copy. Again, we'd have to look at the whole build log to see what's going on.

tackett1980

@rejesterd

Ok. I got it to build.

It crashes back to emulationstation.

There is no xres, yres.

I added that and still crash

Run command log shows nothing.

EDIT

I got it to boot, the issue was the the emulator was still looking for the old reicast-for-mvc2 we were using. I changed it back to reicast omx and it booted. I got super excited because somehow all the characters were unlocked but still...crash back to emulationstation at stage 2, same issue.

rejesterd

The reicast.sh under ~/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/ should be the build script. What you showed is the start script (which should be under ~/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/reicast/, and eventually copied to /opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin/).

I can't imagine the build was actually successful if the above is actually what your reicast build script looks like.

rejesterd

@tackett1980 said in Dreamcast mvc2 crashing at stage 2:

I changed it back to reicast omx and it booted

What is the first image you see when it boots? If you don't see a black screen with REICAST written in huge white letters, that means it's not the updated version. That's probably the easiest way to confirm if the new build was actually successful (again, need to see the build log to know for sure).

tackett1980

@rejesterd

No I see the standard Dreamcast marching logo animation like the old build.

Why in gods name are all the characters unlocked now? Lol

Sorry I posted the wrong file. I guess I had the other one on the clipboard accidentally. I’ll post the correct one when I get home, I had to leave.

rejesterd

@tackett1980 I think the best thing I can do at this point is to compare your build log to mine. I'm kinda wondering if this is related to sound now, as that's the major difference between our configurations.. I'm using alsa and your using omx.

But also, your runcommand.log shows "Warning: Unstable optimizations is on". That should be off by default. Can you also post your ~/.reicast/emu.cfg? I can at least compare that to mine to see if there are any obvious differences.

tackett1980

@rejesterd

Ive tried it both ways with unstable optimizations on and off when we first started this adventure and it didn’t make any difference. My emu.cfg was posted back then as well and I haven’t changed it since we messed with it in the beginning without success.

I’ve also ran this in oss, omx and sound disabled. I don’t have salsa or alsa or whatever it is as an option in mine that might be a pi4 deal.

Where can I find the build log so I can post that for comparison?

I’m probably going to try this again, because here is what I think happened to the build this time.

I edited the script file and saved it.
The reicast install was not successful after that it did not build the .elf file
I tried to update the setup script after that and could not because it wouldn’t merge the changes.
I then had to terminal:
Git reboot —hard
Then I was able to update the setup script
I was then able to do the reicast install.
I then updated the reicast from source.

So I think in that procedure somewhere I probably overwrote the build script you had me replace.

If you're going to RetroPie-Setup > "Update RetroPie Setup Script", that might be the problem. Once you manually edit the build script (~/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/reicast.sh) with a text editor and save the changes, just run Run RetroPie-Setup > Manage Packages > Manage Optional Packages > reicast > Install from source. Do not choose "Update RetroPie Setup script" from the menu.

The build log will be the newest file under ~/RetroPie-Setup/logs/.

tackett1980

@rejesterd

Ok I have a feeling that’s what did it as well.

I’m going to give it another try, but when I did it last time it failed to build the .elf file.

I’ll do it again, and post the build log.

We will get this working, it’s personal now. Lol

rejesterd

@tackett1980 Sounds good. Also try deleting this file if it exists..

/opt/retropie/configs/dreamcast/data/Marvel vs. Capcom 2.state

Wondering if that became corrupt somehow and is affecting things.. not likely, but possible.

It is strange to me that the unlocked characters cheat is apparently enabled for you. I actually don't know how cheats can be enabled for reicast yet.. I actually asked that question on the forum not too long ago. So that will be another thing to take a closer look at.

One thing I'm still not understanding is how your old emu.cfg file is being preserved, if you've removed then reinstalled reicast from source. Seems like that file should be replaced with the default one. But that's just an assumption, as I actually haven't tested that specific issue. But I'll scroll up and find your emu.cfg that you posted earlier and take a look.
