@exarkuniv a ok now i saw it.

You can also put maze of galius
Its easy it works with apt install mazeofgalious

Freedink also its not working

remove xorg from depends and add libvorbis-dev and timgm6mb-soundfont

And change the running script/file with:

sudo /usr/games/freedink -S

And corsixth needs fixing

Add to the depends the following: matchbox timidity freepats lua50 lua5.3

and to the running script in ports replace it with:

#!/bin/bash
xset -dpms s off s noblank
matchbox-window-manager & /opt/retropie/ports/corsixth/bin/corsix-th

I dont know if you fixed freesynd but zerojays was not working what i did was:

clone this repository: https://github.com/winterheart/freesynd.git

Depends: cmake,libsdl-1.2-dev,libsdl-mixer1.2-dev,libsdl-image1.2-dev,libpng-dev

cmake
./configure --release
make
sudo make install
game files in:usr/local/share/freesynd

Freeciv needs also sdl2 to be installed that is not in the depends

Openxcom has also thrown an error in compiling

replace the sources of glshim.git with the sources of gl4es to work

@retropi19 im appreciative on all the help you are giving me.

but can you possabley use the correct format when posting code. this helped me post things in the right format it will make it easier to read

and not that i want to make more work for you, but please open issue tickets on my GitHub for fixes or requests. it is easier to keep track on what needs to be done.

again thanks for your help

@exarkuniv i cannot open issues on your github
the issues section is not there
Your git is https://github.com/Exarkuniv/RetroPie-Extra ???
I just want to help as much as possible,since i like the ports more than the emus.

Can you put this script also the person there claims that plays windows games using box86/wine

https://github.com/Retro-Devils/Mugen-Pi-4

@exarkuniv Yes, I've included a small patch that makes OpenBOR able to load the PAK-files with commandline argument. Greetings to @darknior for having the initial idea of this.

The big differece from rofl0r and "mine" which is a fork from rofl0rs ... you do not need to extract the PAK files. You can directly use the PAKs provided and I don't know why it is not reviewed by the moderators. Even if this version is quite old it provides good results in running old games.

ExarKunIv

@cyperghost thank you for clarifying for me. i will add something to the name to make it different from the one included with the main RetroPie Setup so it does not get ignored

cyperghost

@exarkuniv I think you can compile and try ;) You'll see the difference quite early.

I'm going to do my best to do as good as zerojay. He did set the bar high.

I'm still learning as I go. So be patient is all I ask.

@sleve_mcdichael i was able to bind my 8bitdo FC30 in cavestore with no issue. i have asked them about the location of the save file.

I did get my gamepad working in nxe-evo, eventually; I had to use the keyboard to navigate to "options" and then bind the controls manually. Did you have to do that or was it plug-and-play for you?

Also haven't figured out my graphics issue, I've posted an issue on their repo about it.

@sleve_mcdichael i had to use a keyboard also. once i did that, it worked great

Got it, okay I think we're on the same page. Graphics issue has to do with framebuffer resolution. Am experimenting with game and runcommand settings. Looks great at 1024x768, but runs pretty sluggish. Runs better at 640x480, but the bottom of my image is cut off...

maybe it needs the fkms option to run fast??
