amiga not working why? Empty amiga not working why?

Post by Virtualman 04/11/20, 03:54 am

I have Amiga and Amigacd32 working from pi np -
What I don't understand roms/amiga will refuse to work using standard libretro puae
Works perfect with roms/amigacd32... it uses same .lha and emulator?

es_systems.... cfg

Code:
  <system>
    <name>amiga</name>
    <fullname>Commodore Amiga</fullname>
    <path>~\..\roms\amiga</path>
    <extension>.zip .ZIP .adf .ADF .uae .UAE .ipf .IPF .dms .DMS .adz .ADZ .lha .LHA</extension>
    <command>%HOME%\emulatorLauncher.exe %CONTROLLERSCONFIG% -system %SYSTEM% -emulator %EMULATOR% -core %CORE% -rom %ROM%</command>
    <emulators>
   <!--<emulator name="angle">
        <cores>
          <core>puae</core>
        </cores>
      </emulator>-->
      <emulator name="libretro">
        <cores>
          <core>puae</core>
        </cores>
      </emulator>
      <emulator name="winuae">
        <core>cd32</core>
      </emulator>
    </emulators>
    <platform>amiga</platform>
    <theme>amiga</theme>
  </system>
  <system>
    <name>amigacd32</name>
    <fullname>Amiga CD32</fullname>
   <manufacturer>Commodore</manufacturer>
    <hardware>console</hardware>
    <path>~\..\roms\amigacd32</path>
    <extension>.iso .cso .cue .zip .lha .ISO .CSO .CUE .ZIP .LHA</extension>
    <command>%HOME%\emulatorLauncher.exe %CONTROLLERSCONFIG% -system %SYSTEM% -emulator %EMULATOR% -core %CORE% -rom %ROM%</command>
    <emulators>
   <!--<emulator name="angle">
        <cores>
          <core>puae</core>
        </cores>
      </emulator>-->
      <emulator name="libretro">
        <cores>
          <core>puae</core>
        </cores>
      </emulator>
      <emulator name="winuae">
        <core>cd32</core>
      </emulator>
    </emulators>
    <platform>amigacd32</platform>
    <theme>amigacd32</theme>
  </system>

I can only make it work cmd line , RetroBat refuses to load...

Code:

I'm a bit lost... why it's not working?

Sincerely,

i think that i got the same case, until trying with another games in .hdf format, and now it works perfectly.
I'm not sure that it can help you to understand why. But can help to play some fun games.

@Bilu and I finally got this working! After enabling some retroarch extra logging we have full visibility to the problem.

My personal Amiga set from Pi was .lha format - it requires .hdf/zip format. https://github.com/raphkoster/Amiga-LHA-ZIP-to-HDF-converter

Test from RetroBat or command line now works!
V:\>V:\RetroBat\emulators\retroarch\retroarch.exe -L "V:\RetroBat\emulators\retroarch\cores\puae_libretro.dll" "V:\RetroBat\roms\amiga\AlienBreed_v2.3a_0998.zip"

Now to convert rest of the files Smile and change gamelist.xml accordingly.
