xXkovuXx Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Hey guys I was wondering if I could get some help. for reference I followed the set up from this video. link Problem: Games wont load. Black screen then they return to the main menu. Set up: 1: Mame is found in Lauchbox\emulators\Mame 2: Mame is mapped to find roms in Launchbox\games\Arcade 3: Launchbox is set up according to the link above - Problem I still get black screen. Trouble shooting: I tried a fresh install for Mame and its games following the steps in the video. Still no luck. I tried downloading several cores to run it through retroarch. This didnt help (tried using retro on its own without Launchbox) What am I missing? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If no, there is your biggest issue. If yes, then it is a LB setting issue. Check to make sure the name of your platform you imported the roms into is listed in the associated platforms tab for the emulator set-up in LB (the name of the platform must match the name you enter in the Associate Platforms tab). Post a couple pics. 1. Edit your emulator in LB and post a pic of the Detail tab and the Associated platforms tab. 2. Edit a Mame game and post a pic of the launching page and the emulation page.

zugswang Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Check also that you have the bios files in with your romset for the specific version it is, e.g. MAME 0.226 If the bios files are not in with the rom's they will not load also.
