Please try? See the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gNe41VUv30
The AppImage is running with a folder called Dolphin_Emulator-x86_64.AppImage.home next to it.

The settings is:

But that result in:

Tested wit different roms. Same result.

Hi, do you have the issue with this other appimage?

The AppImage is running with a folder called Dolphin_Emulator-x86_64.AppImage.home next to it.

This means the AppImage runtime will set that location as $HOME. Is the path you have on the screenshot a fullpath? or does it start wit ~/ or similar? I can't see the entire path on the screenshot so I don't know.

Yes, the idea is have a configuration per game (i only have one game attached to that instance).

Is the path you have on the screenshot a fullpath?

Yes, is a full path and is generate automatically when you open the appimage the first time.

No issue at all with this appimage you shared, that appimage works like a charm for this game.

🤔 do you also not have the issue with this one

That just simple not start.

Alright, I have no idea why you have that issue with the current appimage. I tested with some title I already have laying around and could not replicate the error you have.

@lucasmz1 Can you try to replicate this issue? The issue of the first comment.

My suspicion is that the hacks I used on the already compiled dolphin binary from the arch repos aren't all that reliable lol, which I means I have to start building again with -DLINUX_LOCAL_DEV=true and hopefully this is the issue.

It's a shame that the old appimage doesn't launch, because if it did and you didn't have the issue about "Could not write ..." then it would have made it more clear that the problem is the lack of -DLINUX_LOCAL_DEV

[lestcape]

Do you test the specific game i shared? See my first sentence: "Please try?"

[lestcape]

Just to be clear iḿ using this appimage:
https://github.com/pkgforge-dev/Dolphin-emu-AppImage/releases/tag/1.2412-4

The appimage works just fine with several gamecube games, but not with this wii game that is the only one that i tested and fail.

[lestcape]

As an aside, it would help me to know if any of you know where to get an appimage for that project: mupen64plus/mupen64plus-ui-python#231?

I did try a WII title but not the one you said.

Since you mentioned that the other appimage I linked works it is likely the lack of -DLINUX_LOCAL_DEV=true, I would be certain it is that had the older appimage launched and worked on your end, but in any case I had pending start building dolphin again and I'm already pushing such changes on another branch.

If the issue is still present even with -DLINUX_LOCAL_DEV=true then I need to start doing proper troubleshooting with the title you mentioned.

python apps are notoriously hard to make AppImages of, the only one I have is this one and the build has been failing for a month because the pip package I was using to make the AppImage stopped installing lol

What i need is a modern appimage for a GUI emulator of n64 that works. There are some emulator, but for example, this appimage not works: https://github.com/Rosalie241/RMG. This other project have not any recently one: https://github.com/project64/project64 This another more have not one: simple64/simple64#461

Thanks in advance.

@lestcape Try this

[Samueru-sama]

Update tested with the title you mentioned and I can save and all of that.

[lestcape]

Yes this version works, for all games i tested before on GC and Wii. Also works for the N64 emulation for GC. No problem detected.

[lestcape]

You finally create an appimage for desmume (TASEmulators/desmume#723)? Should be good to have one.

Good to know.

https://github.com/pkgforge-dev/DeSmuME-AppImage before the dolphin one.

There is also one of PPSSPP.

You are a hero!!! See what happens to me with MelonDS: melonDS-emu/melonDS#2261 (comment)

There is also one of PPSSPP.

Also ultra nice!
