I haven't tried to get any "ports" working in AM but you should be able to make an emulator like this.

Code: [Select]

# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.1.0
#
executable           /bin/bash
args                 "[romfilename]"
rompath              /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports
romext               .sh
system               Ports

Thanks in this moment all ports working for me...all work less " Maldita Castilla " , this is what I have on this route ...

/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/MalditaCastilla
                                                                           /assets/game.umx
                                                                           /MalditaCastilla.sh
                                                                           /readme.txt

This is the game most important for me, because is a arcade and one of the based themes of my bartop.

Any idea to how run this?

P.D: I put

Code: [Select]

#
executable           /bin/bash
args                 "[romfilename]"
rompath              /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/MalditaCastilla
romext               .sh
system               
and not work.

I'm glad you got it to work. If you wanted to put it with the other ports you can try something like this.

Code: [Select]

# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.1.0
#
executable           sudo
args                 "[romfilename]"
rompath              /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports;/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/MalditaCastilla
romext               .sh;.SH
system               Ports

Thanks  progets, its very good idead.

In this project, i only can add to AM games that i can play with arcade joystick. In this case fps from ports are out, but its good know how i can add games for a system/group of systems.
