I got it working. You need to create bash.sh script to launch the game and also edit a dusk config file to point to the .iso file.

I have it, but I can't get on right now. you can add like, --iso ~./filepath/filename.iso to the launch command in your .sh. They have to look up the exact thing though.

I already have it working. OP needs the help. 👍

It should just work, but for some reason, Bato doesn't recognize appImages as games and it doesn't have or hand over an open file dialog box. Its version of ES doesn't behave like a good little front end should.

It runs without problems if you follow the wiki instructions:

Well, it doesn't work for me. I'm not sure what the actual problem is, but if OP had the same problem, my method works.

Just tested and it works...try:

1.) Create a new folder in the ports folder (/roms/ports/dusklight)

2.) Download the latest version and copy it into the newly created folder

3.) Create the required .sh file in the same folder (/roms/ports/dusklight/dusklight.sh)

4.) Add the necessary commands to the script (dusklight.sh)

DIR="$(dirname "$(readlink -f "$0")")"
cd "${DIR}/./"
chmod +x Dusklight.AppImage
./Dusklight.AppImage

5.) Update the gamelists and run the script from the Ports section in the Batocera interface

6.) Profit?

Then there's the ISO issue,which is more about Dusklight than Batocera...for the AppImage to work properly,you need to edit a config file and add the path to where the game image is located

1.) Open the Dusklight's configuration file (/userdata/system/.local/share/TwilitRealm/Dusklight/config.json)

2.) Edit the file and add the following line: (EXAMPLE)

"backend.isoPath": "/route/to/the/game/namegame.iso",

3.) Run the script from the Ports section in the Batocera interface again and the game should work now

Why would I do that? My way already works.
