It has been suggested that this could be a linking issue, one potential fix for it is rebuilding librashader, by editing its PKGBUILD and changing profile value (line 16) from "optimized" to "release".

Could you tell me if it has worked for you?

Thanks for your help.

Yes, librashader is installed to /usr/lib

~
❯ ls -l /usr/lib/librashader*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       20 Apr  4 08:13 /usr/lib/librashader.so -> librashader.so.0.2.7*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14225888 Apr  4 08:13 /usr/lib/librashader.so.0.2.7*

I'm using CachyOS (sorry, I should have mentioned this).

~
❯ uname -a
Linux PC-MEDIA-LIN 6.8.3-3-cachyos #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed, 03 Apr 2024 19:06:44 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I tried reinstalling librashader, installing ares-emu-git instead of ares-emu, and clearing my ares config - no change.

This might be on the completely wrong track, but I also tried to preload librashader which revealed an interesting error.

~
❯ LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/librashader.so" ares
ares: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/librashader.so: undefined symbol: glslang_initialize_process

If I add libglslang, the message changes. This is where I got stuck.

~
❯ LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/librashader.so /usr/lib/libglslang.so" ares
ares: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/librashader.so: undefined symbol: sc_internal_compiler_glsl_new

Here's my OpenGL details.

Grateful for your assistance, it'd be great to get this going!

Hi @djranm, that's odd...Could you tell more: for example, where librashader is installed? Ares would expect it at '/usr/lib/librashader.so'.

Also, do you use Archlinux or some derivative (e.g. Void, Manjaro)?

Did you try to reinstall librashader?

Which version of OpenGL do you have? (with command "glxinfo | grep version")

v137 works well but I get an error on launch and shaders don't work :(

OpenGL: Failed to load librashader: shaders will be disabled

Thanks, it was an oversight on my part in the PKGBUILD, I have just pushed a fix.

137-1 doesn't install for me. I got this error in package():

cp: cannot stat '/home/furrykef/.cache/paru/clone/ares-emu/src/ares/thirdparty/slang-shaders/': No such file or directory

NeoGeo games now boot for me in Ares. They have issues (nonfunctional sound), but I think that has to do with the early state of the emulation in Ares for the system. Thanks! :)

Hi, thanks for the report, I have now pushed a fix. Can you tell me if it's working for you now?

gourdcaptain commented on 2023-06-13 01:43 (UTC)

This is missing the Database folder needed for Neo Geo emulation, among others.
