thexfactor Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Hi guys I´m strugling to get Amstrad GX4000, Bally Astrocade and others like these ones to run using retroarch and MAME core. I tried to put parameters I found on internet like: "astrocde -cart" with no success at all. The games are in zip format and I was able to run them on retroarch using rocketlauncher (I don´t want to use rocketlauncher anymore :-)). All my bios are stored in system folder inside retroarch folder. Below you can find my configuration: thanks for the help in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thexfactor Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 I did something similar to what you showed me ("astrocde -cart \"%romfile%\"") but only a white screen flashes from retroarch an close afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 yeah actually when I originally set it up it was working but now it is not and I don't know why it stopped working. Someone else on the forums came up with the method but I can't remember their name to give them credit and maybe get them to troubleshoot.

thexfactor Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 I tried this method, but still got nothing working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Personally, I would stick with the stand alone version of Mame, it's much easier to deal with but what is described in that thread does work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. I've messed with the retroarch mame core with non-arcade games on several occassions and honestly, it's a major hassle. For now i'd say it's really not worth all the wasted time since the standalone version of mame is a whole lot easier to get up and running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thexfactor Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 I´ll give MAME standalone a try and let you guys know ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
