ResidualVM on batocera?

suzsuzuki

Grim Fandango is one of my favorite games ever. I'd love to play it on batocera, and already have a version of residualvm to retropie. I tried to compile the version to batocera, but no luck... There's an OpenGL error trying to open

Can someone try to do it? Will be a nice addition for batocera. I can help with that, just need some help too...

I also tried to install windows 95 under DosBox core to play. I can install the game and play, but it's very slow. ResidualVm is the way

hi,
ok, it looks like that ResidualVm is eligible for batocera.
can you give me your .mk and Config so that i fix them please ?
i'm on the irc on french evening to solve this kind of issues. (i'm currenlty fixing the c64 issues)

nadenislamarre Hello ! Sorry to up such an old topic, but is there any plan to integrate Residual VM on batocera ? I'd like to play Escape from monkey island. This one is available on Recalbox and I used to play it and it was working nice. Thanks in advance for your help and thanks very much for your work. Have a nice day!
PS: I'm talking about X86 and not Raspberry (raspberry was not powerful enough and it was unplayable).

I will try to install again and then tell you the libs I used and my makefile, just give me some time...

Another way to have access to window games could be WINE, but nobody seems interested.
Perhaps I will try to rebuild it inside by myself.

Thank Dragu for your reply! In fact, as I get it, it is not under windows (http://www.residualvm.org). It can be built for X86 and RPI since it was done for recalbox: https://www.recalbox.com/blog/fr/post/blog-2018-02-04-residualvm/
Escape from monkey Island and grim fandango are great games. But I totally understand it is not the priority as it is only two games... Please tell me if you try something.
Thanks again!

I would like to see AGS on batocera too: it’s already working on beta for retropie: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Adventure-Game-Studio/

It’s a engine to build adventure games, and it’s already have some gems. I played it a lot into my PSP, that already has a AGS port.

Thanks! And thanks @nadenislamarre for batocera it’s the best of all!
