Development of module-script generator for lr-mess, lr-mame and mame standalone
-
Confusing, but yes indeed, with the normal -cart lines they do load properly.
I have had that working too, earlier on.
But some games don't work as they should and sound is missing too.
Do you have that same problem ?
I was thinking the lr-mame_libretro.so way booted them better.
Btw. I also tried with the mame-basename without succes, and yes I added /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/supracan in mame.ini .
It seems it is not loading the rompath from the mame.ini.
Forcing it in the commandline is working now using this :/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -hash /opt/retropie/emulators/mame/hash -rompath /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/supracan -v -c supracan sangofgt
I will test this part again on where it is going wrong.
I did have a go again with with the lr-mame_libretro.so.
No luck with the lr-mame_libretro.so nightly on pi4, it seems a 64bit one, and I run 32bit OS.
So tried on my x86_64 ubuntu 20.04.
Well boomzoo loaded, but others, no. -

Well boomzoo loaded, but others, no.Like you, It doesn't work on my side for all games. I played with UI parameters and everything stopped working ! The 5 options above are the best ones for me.
For
mame-basename = "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -v -c supracan %BASENAME%"
It works well for me. It's strange if it doesn't work on your side
Seems to be a picky emulator.I'll retry hhtien1408 solution

Seems the mame basename line doesn't work on both x86_64 and the pi4.
But it works if I force the rompath.Where is your mame.ini located ?
Mine is in :
/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame/mame.ini -

It works on my Pi4
Where is your mame.ini located ?
in
opt/retropie/configs/mamenew edit:
I added the location in my comment above -
Perfect !
That works !Just tried the lr-mame_libretro.so nightly on my x86_64 renaming it as /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-mess/mess_libretro.so
It just runs trough the runmess.sh script just like mess_libretro.so does.
The file-size is a bit different but other than that it's looks the same package but just the name is different. -

@dteam Ok. Because I use softlists and cart type so I do not need -cart. All roads lead to Roma in the end. Different methods, same result. All supracan games should work as they are.
-
@folly Sound weird. Do you download the suggested lr-mame nightly I gave you download link? Do you use the same method with me via softlist and cart type chosen? I do not use automatic script just do manually. It should work under Ubuntu. Maybe you miss some points on the road.

Thanks for letting me know. I will try run_mess.sh when I have free time later.

I tried as you suggested, but it seems i am missing something here.
Not sure what though.Don't have that much time to try every time, I will try again later.
Btw. how good are you games running ?
-
@folly perfect as it used to be in official MAME. Tested! See some pictures above for fun!
-
Pictures are looking good :-)
Can you check your sha1sums with mine ?

@folly If you download from MAME Softlist 0.202 archive, they should be the same. I will check SHA later and tell you results soon.

You don't need to download the softlist. It's already in / opt / retropie / emulators / mame / hash with the latest standalone version of MAME if you updated it.The problem is that MAME points there but not Lr-Mess and maybe also lr-MAME. You need to force them to go there or "cut and paste" the hash files into the appropriate folders for lr-Mess and / or lr-mame (only if you want to use softlists - not an obligation - advantage = cheat codes and MAME artworks).
Do you have sound with your Supracan games.
I have no sound on my side -
@dteam Could you share me your compiled mame standalone you are using to test?
I would like to use script run_mess.sh without using softlist just for my trial.
No sound with all games of supracan system due to emulator even with the lastest official MAME 0.232.
Thanks! -

@dteam thanks a lot. Could you share me your compiled mame standalone you are using to test? Thanks!
Now, I'm using MAME 0.229 on my Pi4 (usually, I update it from source). If I do the update, it will be
0.3320.232 probably. -
@dteam 232 not 332. Could you share me your current version?
-
@hhtien1408
sorry my mistake. My current version is MAME 0.229 -
For Datach, I'm able to run it with those lines:
mame-system-nes_datach-cart = "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -v -c nes datach -cart2 %ROM%" mame-system-nes_datach-cart-autoframeskip = "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -v -c -autoframeskip nes datach -cart2 %ROM%"
I'm not able to run it with Lr-Mess and softlist for now
