Did anyone manage to play Jazz Jackrabbit 2 on RG351 with Portmaster?
The port is available in Portmaster (https://github.com/christianhaitian/PortMaster) file ’Jazz2.zip‘. The instructions are simple: “Copy the original game files (The Secret Files and/or The Christmas Chronicles) to ports/jazz2/Source.“ A long time ago, I bought the original games on CD-ROM and I’m using these files, but it doesn’t work.
- What sort of game roms go in here?

Trying Out Recalbox for RG353P/V/M
There is a recalbox/roms/ports rom folder as well, with some folders and freeware files for supported ports already in place (Doom, Wolf3D, some others). Don't think PortMaster or my PortMaster-unique/dependent ports from JELOS and ArkOS will work without some numerous changes to the paths in various scripts and configs.

Installing Linux Games on an Anbernic Device
The PortMaster project specializes in adapting an increasing library of freeware and commercial games — not only Linux, but DOS/Win, and some Android — to work in Linux custom firmwares for these devices. Games that are already written for Linux have one less hurdle to overcome in the process, I would think…? A bit above my level of experience, I’m afraid.

Nintendo Switch games as Celeste on RGB10 Max
I really enjoyed playing the Celeste Nintendo Switch port on the RGB10 Max. I was wondering if anyone can recommend some other games that are also fairly recent that can be played on this device? I am not sure how to find more Switch games like this, as PortMaster mainly links older games (https://github.com/christianhaitian/PortMaster)

Could you play enter the gungeon/undertalr on this?
About that I didn't know, but you can look for in the Portmaster GitHub page

Port Games
There's Portmaster that manages Port games and it is so easy to use. No need for the V. There are all the instructions for each game here https://github.com/christianhaitian/PortMaster/wiki and many games do not require your own files (Stardew Valley does, though).

RG351V OpenSimHardware OSH PB controller (4617/12544) not configured
If that doesn't work, you could try manually flashing an older version of Amberelec
- Have one on the way

Rg351p on the way, joining the übernerd club, nice!
351elec is now amberelec, and yes, it can run ports. Actually, I think it's better than ArkOS now, much more intuitive, so I recommend you that one.

RG351V help
It also sounds like you might be better served with Amberelec: https://amberelec.org/
- So I got this today at a swap meet is brand new but the problem it didn’t have the SD card or anything is there a website or something I can use to re install the firmware on my own SD card?

Can someone recommend a new OS?
I was in your place few months ago and I installed Amberelec. It's much better now, in my opinion.

RG351P won´t boot AmberElec/351Elec
Might seem kinda too obvious but are you sure you have the correct img for the correct device? Did you download from "new installations" or "upgrade" or "assets"? https://github.com/AmberELEC/AmberELEC/releases/tag/20230203

RetroRun on Amberelec Panda Conspiracy (20230323-0731)? How do I access it?
The Retrorun and Retroarch Yabasanshiro cores were removed on Mar 12, 2022 because performance with them is much worse than Yabasanshiro Stand Alone.
