Latest flatpak fails to run #48

Closed pizzadude closed 2 years ago

pizzadude commented 2 years ago

When running the latest flatpak, I get this error: image

pizzadude commented 2 years ago

the portable version works

JakobDev commented 2 years ago

This looks like a missing permission. Here is the code for the directory: https://github.com/Rosalie241/RMG/blob/53044626a0cf60db1938adab83258a4f619d5751/Source/RMG-Core/Directories.cpp#L200-L217

This looks like permission for xdg-pictures, but grating this permission does not fix the Issue.

I apologize for the issue, removing the ScreenshotPath line from the mupen64plus.cfg configuration file should resolve this issue.

I changed the default screenshot directory, which was already set when you've run a previous version of RMG, so it didnt change accordingly.

Removing the ScreenshotPath line didn't fix it, but changing it to something like:

ScreenshotPath = "/home/username/.var/app/com.github.Rosalie241.RMG/data/RMG/Screenshots"

fixed it. Thanks.

Hello,

I'm also running into this issue after the most recent update. Would you happen to know what the directory path is for the mentioned config file? I'm having trouble finding it on my steamdeck.

Thank you for your time.

Got it! Thank you. I had to show hidden files, and there was no username folder between /home and /.var Changed screenshots path and I can launch the app now. :)

Odd, i'm not sure how the steam deck handles things (i'm on fedora kde)

Glad you got it working though.

This is how I fixed mine on SteamDeck:

  1. I created a "Screenshots" folder in the "Pictures" directory under "Places" when viewed in Dolphin while in desktop mode.
  2. Then, go to Home and click on the hamburger icon (Three lines in the top right of the Dolphin file browser)
  3. Select the "Show Hidden Files" option
  4. Go into: .var -> app -> com.github.Rosalie241.RMG -> config -> RMG -> open the "mupen64plus.cfg" file
  5. Find the "ScreenshotsPath =" section and add the dirctory path for the screenshots path, in my case it looks like this: ScreenshotsPath = "/home/deck/Pictures/Screenshots/"
  6. Then save and close the .cfg file
  7. Open Rosalie's Mupen GUI and play your games!

Thats how I got mine to work, hope that helps. Obviously if you create your screenshots folder somewhere else, you'll need to use the correct path.

Brilliant, I hadn't created a screenshot folder for a start, so, that was never going to work. Will give this ago later on, cheers.Username...is that just your steam name I take it?Sent from my Galaxy -------- Original message --------From: DS08 @.> Date: 12/09/2022 01:11 (GMT+00:00) To: Rosalie241/RMG @.> Cc: bonzai1888 @.>, Comment @.> Subject: Re: [Rosalie241/RMG] Latest flatpak fails to run (Issue #48)

Ive made a bugfix release (v0.1.6), should be in the flathub repos in a few hours which should resolve this issue by changing the screenshots directory when it hasnt changed from the broken previous default one from v0.1.4.
