In virtute Dei Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 This is in the games database subforum not the general sub to start but ill try to help, what emulator and rom are you trying to run, because you don't need premium to run the games?

In virtute Dei Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Ahh, have you opened retro arch and downloaded the cores for each system? By default you need mupen64plus core downloaded, nestopia for nes and snes9x for snes 1. Open retro arch 2. Scroll down to online updater 3. then hit core updater Then the list of all retroarch cores will be there to download. Hope that helps if not let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In virtute Dei Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Here's also video from @SentaiBrad that will help: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Actually, those cores aren't the exact recommended ones anymore, they just haven't been changed. Bsnes Balanced for SNES. Nestopia works great as well as FCEUMM, so either works. N64 emulation isn't the greatest either way, and the new core for that isn't ready to go just yet. You also need to make sure like @In virtute Dei said, that the core is downloaded, but the name here on the associated platforms page and on the left of LaunchBox match, RetroArch is linked properly in RetroArch (more when updating). He posted the video tutorial that will probably help the most. I'll also move this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 I also just re-read the first post, No, Premium is not required for basic functionality. Jason tried really hard to make sure that Premium was an enhancement, not a veiled requirement. I helped as well trying to shape Premium the way it is now. We had long discussions about that. So he tried to make Premium a good value, while still having LaunchBox be completely usable by anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
