I.K.E.M.E.N GO on Raspberry Pi 4 [Now with an Install Guide!]

"No config found for system mugen"

ok, so I thought I followed along with everything, but when I go to launch "IKEMEN-GO" in MUGEN, I get "No config found for system mugen". I get the same message when trying to launch another game from there. What did I miss?

@GIJoel same here... there's no Linux executable (.deb) in the folder either. My guess is that the latest update messed up big time.

radiofreero

@SuperFromND where's the executable, and why is the default mgn file blank? Shouldn't the mgn file lead to the executable?

SuperFromND

Ooookay, so sorry for the wait everyone! I guess I didn't test thoroughly enough, as it seems like the current install scripts don't actually create a new system correctly. Gonna have to look into it later. @_@

Hello everyone! Long time no update but I figured I'd let the community know in case this helps anyone else.

If anyone wants a working version of the setup script, I have scripts that will compile the latest nightly:
http://www.trinitymugen.net/~Creator/Jesuszilla/scriptmodules/ports/ikemen-go-nightly.sh
http://www.trinitymugen.net/~Creator/Jesuszilla/scriptmodules/supplementary/golang-1.21.sh

EDIT: 2024/08/16: Uploaded new scripts because we upped the Golang version due to a library update. Please download the new scripts from the URL's above!

Replace the scripts in the setup steps with these if you want a working version of the latest nightly installed separately. @SuperFromND should be working on new scripts in the future but this will allow you to install a separate nightly build for now (which includes 3D stages but beware: they don't perform well on Pi 4 as of the date of this writing; someone is working on improving the 3D rendering as I write this post).

A user in the I.K.E.M.E.N Discord confirmed these modified scripts work with Pi 5 as well and 3D stages do perform better there from what I've seen from footage (I have no Pi 5 to test myself but the confirmation is good).

EDIT: If replacing the steps in the tutorial above with my scripts, make sure to surround the URL's in quotes " " like so:

sudo wget "http://www.trinitymugen.net/~Creator/Jesuszilla/scriptmodules/ports/ikemen-go-nightly.sh"

~ Is a special character in shells so that could cause errors trying to use the command otherwise.

@Jesuszilla thanks for sharing! i got ikemen-dev working except for the .mgn file bit.
i got mugen working on wine through emulatonstation some time ago but i wanted to try ikemen without duplicating data so i symlinked my existing mugen folders under my wine roms dir, created .mgn file for the corresponding symlinks so it looks like this:
Screenshot 2024-05-26 at 02.39.04.png
when i run a game off emulationstation ikemen will run with the default pak.
this is how the entry for ikemen in es_systems.cfg looks:

<system>
    <name>mugen</name>
    <fullname>M.U.G.E.N</fullname>
    <path>/home/osmc/RetroPie/roms/mugen</path>
    <extension>.mgn</extension>
    <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _PORT_ mugen %ROM%</command>
    <platform>pc</platform>
    <theme>mugen</theme>
  </system>

my emulators.cfg looks like so:

ikemen-go-nightly = "XINIT:/opt/retropie/ports/ikemen-go-nightly/ikemen-go.sh %ROM%"
ikemen-go = "XINIT:/opt/retropie/ports/ikemen-go/ikemen-go.sh %ROM%"
default = "ikemen-go-nightly"

a game in my gamelist.xml looks like so:

	<game>
		<path>./AvengersVsX-Men.mgn</path>
		<name>Avengers vs. X-Men</name>
		<desc>description</desc>
		<image>./media/images/AvengersVsX-Men.png</image>
		<video>./media/videos/AvengersVsX-Men.mp4</video>
		<releasedate>20130318</releasedate>
		<developer>infinitymugenteam</developer>
		<publisher>infinitymugenteam</publisher>
		<genre>Fighting</genre>
		<players>1-2</players>
		<playcount>23</playcount>
		<lastplayed>20240526T020120</lastplayed>
	</game>

and this is my runcommand output (ikemen runs fine, just not Avengers vs. X-Men):

initially i copied the Avengers vs. X-Men folder into the ikemen roms folder but got the same result.

then i copied the linux binary and files into a windows mugen folder, and that did run but i'm hoping i can use emulationstation.
what am i doing wrong?

Jesuszilla

@madalone Yeah unfortunately multiple game support had to be removed because it wasn't working properly, hence the need for these "reverted" scripts. I believe it's a future todo for @SuperFromND.

@Jesuszilla thanks for the reply, hadn't seen it until just now. i'll be patient then. been running mugen with wine :)
