How do I run this game????

bob1352 · 10-10-2015, 05:11 PM

I have tried Run Software Install Software, but I can't seem to run this emulator. I am on Fedora 22, I have a screenshot.

Hi...

You might want to check out this page concerning unofficial emulation.

Regards...

ondoho · 10-11-2015, 08:51 AM

what exactly are you trying to run there, and how?

suggestion:

1.
read the contents of the "doc" and "help" folders.

2.
open a terminal in the folder in the screenshot, type

Code:

$ ./launch_pcsx2_linux.sh
$ ./pcsx2

and paste output here.

I can just about read your screen shot -- is that pcsx2? If so, have you (1) made sure that you have the Linux version and (2) read this?

bash: $: command not found...

I am sure I have the linux version, and it is pcsx2. However the main issue is the face that I have know idea how to execute the shell script for the installer.

the "$" is there to symbolize that you opened a terminal with a user prompt.
you don't actually type the "$", but everything following it.
sorry about that.

apart from that, did you read the documentation, both included in your download and on the web page as another member suggested?

I guess I am going to try to compile the shell script of something using cmake.

What is a linux binary???

Yeah I have determined that I have no clue what I am doing.
I am going to try to install the windows version using wine see if it works.

It failed

a linux binary is the equivilent of a windows .exe file, it is the executable code of the program

running ./{binary} file name at the prompt runs it (the ./ is important if you are running a binary in a place other than the PATH (can be determined at a prompt by typing 'echo $PATH', and is the list of places on the file system where the OS searches for executable binaries).

./ meining 'in local directory'

Do this:

Code:

cd ~/Downloads/pcxs2-1.2.2
./launch_pcsx2_linux.sh
./pcsx2

Then report back like the other post said.

unfortunately if someone can only "point and click" in the "Microsoft way"
and can not even use the microssoft "cmd.exe" -- let alone bash

then maybe they should
1)
learn to USE a computer
2)
stick with microsoft and never learn to even use that , other than "point and click"

frieza · 10-14-2015, 03:32 PM

on second thought, if you have fedora22

Code:

$ su -c 'yum inststall pcsx2'
$ pcsx2

You provide no solution to this issue. You just complain that I have no idea how to use a computer. I am trying very hard to get this to work. If your going to click on a question try to provide an answer.
Instead of complaining about the ignorance of the person who asked the question.

the YUM or the inststall would not worked so I changed it to.

su -c 'dnf install pcsx2'

this did not work as well.

Here he the output from your previous command.

[root@linux-machine-1 lbyker]# cd ~/Downloads/pcxs2-1.2.2
bash: cd: /root/Downloads/pcxs2-1.2.2: No such file or directory
[root@linux-machine-1 lbyker]# ./launch_pcsx2_linux.sh
bash: ./launch_pcsx2_linux.sh: No such file or directory

Now here is a screen shot of the directory.

P.S. when I say previous command I mean

cd ~/Downloads/pcxs2-1.2.2
./launch_pcsx2_linux.sh
./pcsx2
