      @george im open with both really. since i already did a bunch of "conf" files on my dosbox that way is not that different,
      granted i have not messed with box86 yet.
      and with being said your script way is nice too for the people who have not messed with it yet. like me :)

        I've been working my way through this topic very slowly and am so impressed at the progress that has been made in such a short space of time!

        Personally, thanks to the pointers last week, I've managed to install all the relevant applications and can now run Wine from the ES Ports menu (but weirdly, Winetricks just hangs with a black screen and mouse pointer, but that's another matter!)

        Through Wine Explorer I have managed to get Captain Claw to work, albeit in a small window in the top-left quarter of the screen. Any attempts to launch from ES have failed though - is there an outline for a script that would work for this? I've attempted a few examples from further up in the topic (amending for my own folder setup naturally) for example:

        #!/bin/bash
xset -dpms s off s noblank
cd "/home/pi/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/claw"
matchbox-window-manager &
WINDEBUG=-all LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/retropie/supplementary/mesa/lib/" setarch linux32 -L /opt/retropie/ports/wine/bin/wine '/home/pi/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/claw/claw.exe' -fullscreen
$

        I'm now at a dead-end again though and any help would be gratefully received.

        Thanks in advance again - this has some exciting potential and it is now my new RetroPie obsession!

          Don't know, but perhaps this will help.

          The -fullscreen in your file is for wine, I think.
          So perhaps you can run claw.exe with a fullscreen option, with something like this :

          .......claw.exe -fullscreen' -fullscreen

          Or perhaps you can configure claw in fullscreen while running and save the config then.
          And then run it again though ES.

          Good luck !

              @folly thank you - gave this a go but got the following messages (had to type this out as nothing appeared in runcommand weirdly):

              xset:  unable to open display ""

wine: cannot find L"/home/pi/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/claw/claw.exe -fullscreen"

              This .sh file is in roms/ports, maybe I've put it in the wrong place? It was the only way I could get it to show up on any lists in ES though.

              I've tried opening it from terminal by navigating to /home/pi/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/claw and then typing:

              wine claw.exe

              and it sits there for a few minutes before telling me claw.exe is a bad type of exe file. Yet it still runs through wine explorer... hmm...

                That a pity.

                    @tedmaul Try to get Space Cadet working first (and starting from ES -> Ports). When that's done, copy the Claw folder to Program Files and look under:

                    opt/retropie/configs/ports
                    opt/retropie/ports

                    and

                    retropie/roms/ports/

                    for guidance how Space Cades is started. Duplicate and adjust it all for Claw and behold the Claw entry under Ports in ES.

                        @mth75 great that you've got Claw working!

                        I'm attempting to get Space Cadet to work, firstly by running the code that was on the github page - I've made it executable but it doesn't appear to be doing anything. Have I potentially started in the wrong place?

                            Do you start from the terminal or from within ES?

                                Maybe try another version? My version is just a copy of the game folder under program files, so no installing needed.

                                    Just an idea.
                                    Perhaps you both can share md5sum's to check your versions against each other.

                                        In the terminal.

                                        Goto the directory where the game is, something like this :

                                        cd /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/claw

                                        With this command it will search for all files in that directory and subdirectory's and create an md5sum of each file found :

                                        md5sum $(find -name "*")

                                        If you want the data in a file (output.txt) do this instead :

                                        md5sum $(find -name "*") > output.txt

                                        Now you can post this information.

                                          Using georges approach with streets of rage remix but no getting music, it worked with twisteros. Any tips on what to try to get music working?

                                          Also some times it asks to install mono and gecko any ideas why and if I can resolve that?
