Open Retroarch on your gameshell
Select Load Cores
Select Download Core
Select Chailove
Quit Retroarch

Connect your device to your gameshell with SSH

cd ~/.config/retroarch/cores
(If you use another folder to save your downloaded cores navigate there)

mv chailove_libretro.so /home/cpi/apps/emulators

cd ~/games/

git clone --depth=1 GitHub - RobLoach/ChaiLove-FloppyBird: 🐦 Flappy Bird in ChaiLove FloppyBird

cd FloppyBird

rm -rf .git

nano ~/apps/launcher/Menu/GameShell/FloppyBird.sh
(change FloppyBird if you want another name in the menu)

Add:

retroarch -L /home/cpi/apps/emulators/chailove_libretro.so /home/cpi/games/FloppyBird/main.chai

Save and quit


Move the icon to ~/apps/launcher/skin/default/Menu/GameShell
Make sure the icon has the same name as the .sh file. In this case FloppyBird.png

Reboot and have fun :smiley:

Indeed, also here.

Obviously it should be ~/apps/launcher/skin/default/Menu/GameShell.

Thank you! It worked like a charm! The icon has to be converted to png format from jpeg.

Thats odd, i’m pretty sure i uploaded the file as a .png. When i’m at my laptop, i’ll upload the png file again.

Yes it downloads as a jpg, but if you just rename the download to png it works …
