mupen64plus works in retroarch not in launchbox

[rastaman1201]

Hi,

Having a problem with mupen64plus-next core in retroarch working in launchbox.  N64 games play fine in retroarch with mupen but when I select a game to play in Launchbox it doesnt do anything.  And I have N64 games set for retroarch in launchbox. I have read some other posts about it but could not find a solution to my issue.  Running win 10 x64, radeon rx 570.

Thanks

Make sure your platform name matches the one in the associated platforms in the edit emulator window in Retroarch, also make sure that the correct core is selected in the associated platforms.

Thanks for the response.  Did you mean Launchbox instead of Retroarch?  Launchbox says the core is missing?

 I tried right clicking on the game and selecting launch with..then select retroarch and then it shows the core mupen64pluslibretro...and not the core mupen64plus_next_libretro.  So how do i change that? Reload N64 roms and readd retroarch as the emulator?

Figured it out! thanks for pointing me in the right direction!  I didnt realize there was a drop down for diff cores in edit emulator.

Glad you got it figured out.

They both need to match up, it's easier to change the name in the Associated Platforms list than the actual platform name.
