    It all started this morning. I was playing AM2R the fan made Metroid game on PC. I thought, "this would rule on my new RG35XX-H." Someone got it running on the Anbernic and there was gameplay footage, but no tutorial. Your tutorial worked! Playing AM2R right now - woo woo. Got Stardew running as well. Also, by following your guide I got GTA:Vice City running! It even supports dual analog sticks! Thanks so much.

    Hi, First of all thank you for your guild, it really helps me getting Balatro and Stardew Valley to my RG35XX +, but i believe there is a problem with tmnt, after following your guild, there was no window that poped up to tell you to skip any file. If you could please address the problem and make a new guide specifically for tmnt please?😅😅😅

    There is a bug with installing TMNT in latest MuOS Refried Beans. For now, you can use the fix posted on the MuOS discord: discordapp.com/channels/1152022492001603615/1180080911434399744/1255211710478942208 Do the install as per my instructions then copy over the 'progressor' file from the MuOS discord. It should replace an existing file in the port/tmntsr port folder.

    Using portmaster, download the VC port files. Then, copy all of the files from your original installed copy on your PC into the ports/gtavc folder on your device SD card Gta-vc.exe should be in the ports/gtavc folder

    I had one of these yesterday. Got MuOS installed, but I'm having issues with portmaster, I got some games running via explore content, but the portmaster application itself doesn't seem to work properly, there's nothing listed under ports, if I pick featured ports or options its boots back to the muos menu. I installed portmaster games through the website download and instructions but this and forager and fallout 2 just boot to menu. But I have got Fallout 1, Heroes of might and magic 3, undertale, diablo 1 running seemingly fine, so I can't be completely useless. But really don't know what Im doing wrong and why my portmaster behaves as it does (I am connected to my wifi) Log file says "//mnt/mmc/roms/Ports/StardewValley.sh: line 81: mono: command not found" no idea why this mono command is missing or why it needs the kissing disease. So there is a mono file on the portmaster github repository, though I haven't seen if it works yet. Clueless about Fallout 2 as the log is blank....and for forager the log is very full claiming its missing lots and tbh I can't be bothered with messing with all that now.

    MuOS is a bit finicky when it comes to connecting to Wifi. Even if it says "connected", it may not actually be connected. If you don't see any games when connected to Portmaster, you probably aren't actually connected to wifi so go into the MuOS setup and disconnect and reconnect then reset your device. If you are installing games manually, then you are likely missing the runtimes that are required for some games. In the case of Stardew Valley, you need the mono runtime which is installed automatically when you install via Portmaster. It is possible to install the mono runtime manually: Go to portmaster.games/runtimes.html and for SDV you need the mono squashfs file. Download this file and for MuOS, it needs to be placed on your SD card at /MuOS/PortMaster/libs
