[EMULATION] Amiga4Recalbox v0.8999999999, install in one click (or so)

[voljega]

@benjo2000 strange indeed ! Anyway it is true that amiberry is lacking for now cycle exact emulation so these problems can happen I guess

It is not the pi2 I tested a lot on it ....

[mrseguin]

@voljega nice to know its not related to pi2 No cycle exact ah .From my recollection for some games its mandatory

Great stuff.

I install lastest version Amiga4Recalbox compatible with recalbox 4.1 2017.12.02 but I can't run on my raspberry pi 2
I try coping all the neccesary BIOS files in /recalbox/share/bios and /recalbox/share/bios/amiga but when I select a game always returns to menu (some of them ran in previous version of your addon for recalbox 4.1 beta).

Log:
/recalbox/share/system/logs/es_launch_stderr.log
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "emulatorlauncher.py", line 215, in <module>
exitcode = main(args)
File "emulatorlauncher.py", line 144, in main
command = generators[system.config['emulator']].generate(system, args.rom, playersControllers)

KeyError: '1'

@pillabichos unless you don't have any controller connected, I don't know how to resolve that

[pillabichos]

@voljega I connect a joystick and runs ok!
In previous versions I can use just the keyboard ???

[voljega]

@pillabichos you mean in the old batch version ?

Hi Voljega,

i puted 5 roms checked with MD5 like on GitHub written in the folder /recalbox/share/bios
but nothing changed. I klick on one adf file Blues Brothers, California Games but after the screen is getting dark and the sound stoped everything comes back to the main menu...
Is there something special I have to check in the settings? Am I have to reinstall everything?
I only want to play Amiga games right now so I don´t have any other roms for the other systems.. should I check and try?

[voljega]

@marco-rizzo-scheible No nothing special to check, if you installed through the script...

Do you have a controller connected and configured through EmulationStation when launching the game ?

[Marco Rizzo-Scheible]

right now I use the keyboard.. I think i have configured a PS3 Controller

[voljega]

@marco-rizzo-scheible try with controller connected

[Marco Rizzo-Scheible]

thank you voljega that was the solution.

[voljega]

@marco-rizzo-scheible nice, well I guess I have one more bug to correct !

[pillabichos]

Thanks voljega for add this so interesting feature to recalbox 4.1

[RustyMG]

Hope this will be added to 4.2

[voljega]

@rustymg not-so-fresh-spoiler : it will

[acris]

@RustyMG no recalbox 4.2
recalbox 4.1 is dead now , realase is YY.MM.DD -> RECALBOX 2017.12.02

[RustyMG]

Fantastic news!

I've "been away" from my Pi due to finally getting an Xbox one to play some class Indy games (e.g. Candleman) but had to go back to my true love - retro gaming!
I never updated from 4.01 to 4.1 as I didn't want to lose my CD32 set up (from the guide on these forums) which from what I read, wouldn't work on 4.1, but the lure of a finally working C64 emu plus Amiga may make me update!

[voljega]

@rustymg CD32 won't be entitely there with first version though (it will work like my script but won't be officially supported), I need to work on Amiberry's newest version for that

[RustyMG]

As long as the cd32 emu works from your setup I will give it a go, as I have lots of cd32 comilation iso's, where the amiga games have been patched to work so they don't need a keyboard and can be started and played etc with just a joypad.
