OtavioCJR Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Hello I use retroarch for my games, but i cant started my games on launchbox with retroarch, when i forced appears the message "now loading" but only for a few seconds and nothing happens. I start on launchbox and bigbox on last week, so i do not have previous versions of launchbox. I think this problem occurs on manage emulators > retroarch > associated plataforms and this window there are the new column and i cant put the information about the column "default command-line parameters" because when i put the information for exemplo "-L "cores\genesis_plus_gx_libretro.dll" and press "ok", when i return on this window my information is not saved. So i need help, because i cant use the retroarch on my launch box or big box. Thank you and sorry about my english its not my native language.

Retro808 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Can you share a couple pics? In Launchbox go to Tools>Manage emulators and edit the retroach. Share a pic of the Emulator Details tab and the Associated Platform tab. Then choose a game from the platform you are having issues with and right click and edit the game. Share a pic of the Launcher tab and the Emulation tab. Also what is the exact name of the platform as you see it in Launchbox you are having an issue with.

Retro808 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Also forgot to ask, do the games run in Retroarch directly? Outside of Launchbox if you run Retroarch can you play the Genesis and SNES games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This stuff does not have to be entered anymore, this is the old way of doing things and is no longer applicable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of Launchbox if you run Retroarch can you play the Genesis and SNES games? even when I'm in the bigbox, I can open the retroarch menu (theres a option on bigbox when you select the game) make all the way to find the rom inside the retroarch menu and play it normally.

Lordmonkus Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Can you right click a game and take a screenshot of the menu that comes up ? Like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Ok thanks. Just out of curiosity what is the full paths of your emulator and rom folders ? For example mine are: D:\Emulation\Emulators D:\Emulation\Roms I'm just wondering if maybe you have some folders with accents in their names, that has been known to cause issues in the past.

No problem, but i have accents here, i will change now For emulators - G:\Portal de Emulação\Emuladores For Roms - G:\Portal de Emulação\LaunchBox\Games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Yeah i'm gonna bet those accents are messing with it. You will need to change your rom and emulator locations in Launchbox after to rename without accents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi DanTheMan1379 in my case i had accents in the names of the folders like. For emulators - G:\Portal de Emulação\Emuladores For Roms - G:\Portal de Emulação\LaunchBox\Games so i changed for: For emulators - G:\Portal de Emuladores\Emuladores For Roms - G:\Portal de Emuladores\LaunchBox\Games and i solved my problem.
