MiSTer FPGA Forum

I had PR-Doom working fine from the installer but recently did a fresh Mister install and find it not working.

A message was asking for a missing file: "libdb-5.3.so"

A similar bug was discussed in the SCUMMVM core here: https://githubmemory.com/repo/bbond007/ ... /issues/14
I extracted the file from an old linux image and put it in the SCUMMVM directory as discussed, and did the same with the PR-BOOM directory:

/media/fat/Doom/arm-linux-gnueabihf

Trying to relaunch the game, and now it is asking for file "libwayland-client.so.0" so I found it in the old linux image as well and placed it in the same Doom directory with "libdb-5.3.so"

Now the error message: "error while loading shared libraries: /media/fat/Doom/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libwayland-client.so.0: file too short"

...um, I don't even know to ASK help to fix this except-
How do I make the 'libwayland-client.so.0' file... TALLER?

Yep, The latest Linux.img update broke MiSTer_PrBoom-Plus.

I think maybe your libwayland-client.so.0 is too short because perhaps you copied the symlink and not the actual .so file? Not sure.

I was not aware anyone was still using MiSTer_PrBoom-Plus anymore now that the original DOS version runs well on ao486 (after FPGAzumSpass's awesome tune-up), still PrBoom-Plus does offer a few advantages such as multi-player network support & still considerably higher FPS, so I thought I'd go ahead and fix it...

delete /media/fat/Doom/arm-linux-gnueabihf (first) the run -->

Give that a try and report back if you would...

Thanks!

@bbond007 - TOTALLY FIXED NOW! THANK YOU!!

I just have to figure out the settings again. It loaded Doom II by default instead of part 1. I will check my WAD files. Also the resolution by default is very windowed like ScummVM but likely a setting I just need to rediscover.

It is just great to have the option to play this in the AO486 core, or just launch it from your script.

I greatly appreciate you and your work bbond007.

I recommend you change the MiSTer.INI
[MENU]
video_mode=6

Thant will fix both ScummVM and Pr-Boom+

Many thanks also for me!

Agree Doom is working just fine on the AO486 core (and grateful to its devs for that) but still I prefer the PrBoom

I have already changed the video mode to 6, because of the ScummVM
