quake 1 mission packs

[symbios24]

Hello there, i`m jim

I`m using retropie v4.2 on a raspberry pi2 and installed libretro-tyrquake, quake 1 and episode 5-dopa working fine but mission pack 1 and 2 are not working, when i click to them they return me back to the main menu of retropie i followed the instructions here "https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Quake"

darkplaces quake engine works perfect but lr-tyrquake only works with quake1 and dopa

I appreciate if you can help me

Thank you

I have the mission packs running on android and PC. See new documentation docs.libretro.com

I feel this issue could be closed if a Retropie/Raspberry Pi user can confirm mission packs are working which I expect they are

Tested on RetroPie 4.3 (not current, I know) and can confirm the setup script DOES NOT appear to detect/setup the mission packs.

@thatman84 Are you able to link to any specific new documentation? I couldn't find any mention of how the mission packs are accessed once the pak files are placed inside the appropriate folders.

[thatman84]

Afaik you scan the directory and they will be listed in a playlist. I don’t have anything setup to test right now.

As for accessing them from Retropie that’s something I am not familiar with.

Here is the current documentation

Heads up @thatman84 , OPs original issue is that some of the retropie launcher scripts for the quake mission packs don't function correctly.

I looked into this a little deeper. Although I haven't recreated OPs original issue, I believe any issues like this may actually reside in RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/libretrocores/lr-tyrquake.sh and have to do with upper/lower-case letters.

lr-tyrquake.sh does not detect (and thus create launcher scripts for) the three extra mission packs/episodes if either the foldername or pak files within use any uppercase letters. I wonder if there is a situation where the launcher scripts are created, but then upper-case letters interfere at runtime, causing OPs issue.

If someone can confirm that lr-tyrquake itself is accepting of both upper/lower-case pak files and other resources then this issue could be closed and potentially reopened as a RetroPie-Setup issue: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues
