amino Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I was having trouble playing games from launchbox but no problem playing them from retroarch i turned on logging and found this error "Frontend is built for dynamic libretro cores, but path is not set. Cannot continue. Fatal error received in: "init_libretro_symbols()" jni_thread_destruct() Pause: 0x49e2b120" I set the correct core in launchbox seems to be an issue with passing the game using command line maybe a typo somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn72 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 In order to run games from Launchbox, Retroarch must be closed and not running in the background. Once I found that out all Retroarch games run flawlessly from Launchbox. Problem appears to be on the Retroarch side and not Launchbox. The other thing that I noticed is that some games don’t work from the emulator setting to uncompress zip or 7zip files from Launchbox. As Retroarch does this automatically, I disable this setting.

amino Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 Seems to be only happening on my nvidia shield i've had no problems on nubia red magic 3 or on nox emulator getting everthing to run properly so something is telling me the settings that are automaticly setup from launchbox are causing issue hoping there will be a logging option or more options in the interface to track down this issue.

Jason Carr Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 @amino Are you using a special build of Retroarch for this somehow? Where did you get your version of Retroarch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm aware of that, of course. I was just wondering if you're running a custom version of it, since I've never seen that error before.

amino Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 I believe it was SNES but it does it with all of them; GBA, NES, N64, PSX, SEGA and with the same error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amino Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 I know this is a lunchbox problem because the pass-through works with arc browser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's working properly for loads of people, so there must be something unique about your setup or device. What device are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I happen to have a Shield TV myself and test most releases with it, so that baffles me even further. Just to make sure, I went ahead and re-tested everything on my Shield, and everything is working properly. Maybe there's an issue with the SD card? Can you try running them from internal storage?
