Reply To: How to add new emulator and make it default?

[herbfargus]

I’m having the same problem here too- it seems to be an issue with emulationstation as it runs just fine from the command line. This is the runcommand error log I’m getting (i get the same error log if I don’t use runcommand as well):

unreal_speccy_portable: ../../devices/memory.cpp:84: void eRom::LoadRom(int, const char*): Assertion f failed.
/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 684: 29913 Aborted                 /opt/retropie/emulators/usp/unreal_speccy_portable "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/zxspectrum/Lunar Jetman (1983)(Ultimate).z80"

And just in case you’re interested, this is the script I pieced together (its not very good but it at least installs it. I placed it in /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators and just ran it from the experimental menu in the setup script)
