Modeler in linux

[isidoro-80]

Hello i would like to use moder in box86 https://segaretro.org/Modeler can you help me?

[isidoro-80]

I lunch command with ./modeler and i have this response: Bash ./modeler cannot execute binary file: formato eseguibile non valido

[ptitSeb]

The elf signature doesn't trigger binfmt redirection, not sure why.

Anyway, it's a staticaly linked linux binary: it will not work with box86. (You can launch it with box86 ./modeler but it just exit silently, after calling a few syscall... But again, statically linked binary are not supported in box86)

Try the Windows version instead maybe...

[ptitSeb]

Also, older version are not statically linked and start. But they don't work because they are using old symbol not wrapped yet. I'll try to add them later.

thanks i really dont know how to do it. I tried the windows version with wine and it starts correctly but the program opens the game in a very small window and it is really difficult to play.

[isidoro-80]

hello I did not understand what you posted? what should I do?

[ptitSeb]

I have updated box86 to handle older version of Modeler, but it's still not enough to run it anyway...

[isidoro-80]

ok thanks for trying. at this point I have to give up the project. if there is any news later let me know thanks

I have updated box86 to handle older version of Modeler, but it's still not enough to run it anyway...

I find this emulator for game sega model 2 and 3. https://emuloader.mameworld.info/downloads.htm It is possible run on box86?

I have made progress on static binaries.

Now, if you unupx the modeler binary (with upx -d modeler, but you may need to sudo apt install upx before), the modeler binary will just work.

Also, just to note, m2emulator on Wine also works fine.

I think this ticket can be closed now.

thank you very much I will try immediately. sega model 2 I already use it under wine
