Can you please be more specific ? Is this one of the packages included in RetroPie or something you created ? How do you - manually - run the package commands ?

One of the package incluse in RetroPie,
I launch the install via Retropie_packages.sh mame2010 install_bin ( for example )

Mame has been installed but no rom folder in /home/pi ( Like the other package )

From one of the previous posts:

To install lr-fceumm, you'd call

sudo ./retropie_packages lr-fceumm depends
sudo ./retropie_packages lr-fceumm sources
sudo ./retropie_packages lr-fceumm build
sudo ./retropie_packages lr-fceumm install
sudo ./retropie_packages lr-fceumm configure

The rom folder is created as part of the last step - by the scriptmodule configure function. If you just run install_bin, that won't happen.

ok that clear :) thank U :)
can I ask you one more think about this ? :)

i wanna install openbor (not official version ) but it don't install by my script.

i donwload the .sh in

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/OpenBOR-63xx-RetroPie-openbeta/master/scriptmodules/openbor-6xxx-RPi3/openbor-v6510-RPi3.sh -O- | tr -d '\r' > /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/ports/openbor-6xxx-4rpi3.sh

i Launch it with

sudo bash ./RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh openbor-6xxx-4rpi3 depends
sudo bash ./RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh openbor-6xxx-4rpi3 sources
sudo bash ./RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh openbor-6xxx-4rpi3 build
sudo bash ./RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh openbor-6xxx-4rpi3 install
sudo bash ./RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh openbor-6xxx-4rpi3 configure

and the pi tell me
" No module 'openbor-6xxx-4rpi3' found for platform rpi3 "

( i try to launch install_bin but it's not a binary version so it's not working but it's logic ;) )

but if I launch by ES menu, the script is ok ,that working

I'm sure is the same .sh, I try to delete it and it's disappear and if I donwload it again it come back to the ES list

the command seem to be correct but i don't understand why my script dont' launch it

( it's not the most important but i wanna understand ;) )

Because the scriptmodule is not named openbor-6xxx-4rpi3. If you look at the file, the name is openbor-v6510-RPi3:

rp_module_id="openbor-v6510-RPi3"
rp_module_desc="OpenBOR - Beat 'em Up Game Engine v6510-dev (official!)"
rp_module_help="Place your pak files in $romdir/ports/openbor and then run $romdir/ports/OpenBOR.sh from ports section."
rp_module_licence="BSD https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/OpenBOR-Raspberry/master/LICENSE"
rp_module_section="exp"
rp_module_flags="!mali !x11 !kms"

ok it's mean more logic, but i saw openbor-6xxx-4rpi3.sh in scriptmodules. So I would launch it ( like a stupid noob who I am ^^ ).
