radio5 Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 Lately I've been getting some odd notifications when starting retroarch via launchbox. Here's what happens: I'll select a game while in BigBox mode. Then, when I press the guide button on my xbox one controller, I get the following notifications in retroarch: "Waiting for client" "Joined as Player 1" (then after about 25 seconds) "port remap failed" It's only after I receive the final message that I can do anything such as save/load state. Now, I realize LaunchBox has nothing to do with retroarch from a development standpoint, but when I start retroarch directly, I don't get any of these odd notifications. I would also like to point out that I'm not using any special launch parameters. Does anyone have an idea as to what could be causing this? Thank you in advance for your help! Quote
DOS76 Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 I would guess that you have some type of controller automation setup in LB and it is interfering with RA and trying to start a netplay session based on your error. Quote
radio5 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Posted September 9, 2019 Thanks, but I tried disabling automation and problem persists. Quote
KetchyKech Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Having this exact issue ... I also disabled automation and nothing-- Radio5, if you ultimately found a solution, let us know! Quote
radio5 Posted August 10, 2020 Author Posted August 10, 2020 Man, that was a while back... I don't have the issue anymore, but I can't remember exactly what fixed it. I think it was making sure Steam was completely closed before starting LaunchBox, which I now do religiously. Hope this helps. Quote
KetchyKech Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Steam was the culprit! -- I have to find a way to still have Steam open and not get this error though...thanks a bunch! Quote
