dbar4gun: new Wii remote userspace driver as lightgun
-
@lowlevel1989 this no longer seems to install from the retropie script module. How can I get this to install on my retropie setup?
-
@RynoRoe What errors do you get when installing the package ?
-
@mitu it gives me this error:
Could not successfully install dbargun - dbargun is a Linux userspace driver for the wiimote with DolphinBar support.
(opt/retropie/supplementary/dbar4gun/bin/dbar4gun not found). -

The previous messages are showing the actual error. Try to post them also, along with the your setup info as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@mitu ok I’m running the newest install of retropie on a pi3 while running usb rom service with all my roms on an external drive. Here is the log file text:

Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://www.piwheels.org/simpleOK, I see the error. Should be fixable - I'll take a look at it.
EDIT: it seems the new code is not compatible anymore with RaspiOS Buster and needs Python 3.8 as a minimum.
@lowlevel1989 we can install the 0.13 version for older RaspiOS, before the calibration code was added - is that ok ?
-
@mitu so does this mean I need to somehow install an older version of dbar4gun?
-
@RynoRoe At the moment, yes.
You can try this version ofdbar4gun.shwhich you can replace the$RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/supplementary/dbar4gun.shand re-try the installation. Make a backup of$HOME/RetroPie-Setupfirst, before replacing the file, and restore it afterwards. -
Hi, im really curious about this and wanting to try it out. If i understand correctly this will enable you to use two lightguns simultaneously? I have retropie setup on a Pi400 which only has 3 USB ports, and all mine are currently in use (2 controllers+ mouse). Would this work with the Dolphinbar connected through a USB dongle?
@RynoRoe did you get this working with the older version ? -
@RynoRoe the installation should work now without futher modifications, just update RetroPie-Setup and re-try the installation.
