Unalble to launch Half Life #41

Closed jleboube closed 3 years ago

jleboube commented 3 years ago

Hi. First, thank you for putting PiKiss together. It is an amazing tool!

I recently tried to run Half-Life from PiKiss on my Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB RAM). No matter what I try (Raspbian, Twister, etc), Half-Life won't launch. I can install Quake and play it, but Half-Life is a no go. I do have Half-Life installed from Steam, however, through my testing, I tried with the Steam version installed and without. The same results, which are, click on Games, then Half-Life. The mouse just sits there and nothing happens. Below is what I assume to be helpful information. If you need me to get any log files or any other information, please let me know.

Steps to reproduce: Log into Raspbian Open terminal and run "sudo apt-get update" Run "sudo apt-get upgrade -y" Reboot Paste "curl -sSL https://git.io/JfAPE | bash" into terminal and answer the questions during install Reboot Open menu, then go to Games, then click on Half-Life. Nothing happens.

Try the next on Raspberry Pi OS 32 bits:

  1. Install Half-life through PiKISS.
  2. When asking for your online copy, type n.
  3. Copy your valve directory from Steam inside /home/pi/games/half-life.
  4. Now type in a terminal: cd /home/pi/games/half-life && ./half-life.sh

Thank you for the prompt response. Can you kindly point me to where the valve and Steam directories are located? On Oct 22, 2020, 5:53 AM -0500, Jose Cerrejon notifications@github.com, wrote:

I mean open your Steam folder (I don't know where it is in your operating system), search your half-life/valve directory and copy it inside /home/pi/games/half-life

If you don't know where the games are in your Steam folder, you can search on the net.

Ok. So, here is one issue...I can’t install Steam on Raspbian, as it isn’t supported. I installed Twister OS, which has Steam installed. I will try to find the Half-Life folder and copy it over. On Oct 22, 2020, 6:10 AM -0500, Jose Cerrejon notifications@github.com, wrote:

I followed your instructions and it still doesn’t work. On Oct 22, 2020, 6:10 AM -0500, Jose Cerrejon notifications@github.com, wrote:

Ok. I'll test it again with my Steam copy this week.

jleboube commented 3 years ago

Please let me know if there are any logs or any other areas on my Pi I can share with you to help investigate/test.

I’ve tried this with a fresh copy of Raspbian and Twister OS on Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB RAM. I like Twister and it has Steam pre-installed, so I’ve been using it. Im mentioning this in case Twister has a different log level we can turn on or any other tool to help with testing. On Oct 22, 2020, 6:51 AM -0500, Jose Cerrejon notifications@github.com, wrote:

It's working with no hassle. I've added some improvements. Check it out on this video.
