Add Tic-80 support

[jlbrd]

Please add tic-80 emulator

[christianhaitian]

While the emulator is available, none of the included themes in Emulationstation for ArkOS support Tic-80 currently. Will wait until at least nes-box supports it and then will add this emulator.

Thank you for your reply. Should I ask NesBox to add the theme for Emulationstation?

Hello, The TIC80 core is listed in Retroarch. So I launched retroarch 64. Installed TIC80 by downloading the core. Created a directory /home/roms/tic80 and copied tetric.tic. Enbled logs in retroarch. Launch retroarch, load the core, load the tetris.tic content. The screen turns black and then returns to the menu. In the logs:

Hello and thank you for your work. The update is installed. Now a Tic80 menu and the installed games are displayed. But I still have the same launch problem as before. I don't know if it's caused by emulationstation, retroarch or ArkOS. And no error in the Retroarch log. Do you have an idea ?

.tic games launch without issue for me. I tested mario bros., up dog, and cauliflower power.

I flashed the sdcard and after updating everything works. Thank you for everything.
