F Krueger Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Pause screen is not showing up in mame only, When I press pause, the game pauses and is still showing the paused state of the game (no pause menu). however the strange part, when I press up/down on my controller I can hear it cycling through the menu options, I can even select reset by pressing down 4 times and pressing select, the game resets. It’s almost like the pause screen doesn’t have permission to be on top. In retroarch it works fine, I can see the menu and all works well. anyone seen this before?

Each emulator behaves differently, this is why we have some settings for the pause and startup/shutdown screens, so you may need to play with them to find a combination that works correctly for you. This is just the nature of trying to draw a window on top of another one, its not a exact science unfortunately as every program handles their own window differently.

F Krueger Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 Thanks Neil, Where are these setting found? I see only basic on/of settings in Bigbox/options/Game pause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In LB got to >Tools >Manage >Emulators. When you edit an emulator you can adjust the settings there for emulator specific Pause settings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F Krueger Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 Thanks guys, that worked, there was a setting to force pause screen activation. Checking this box has made it work 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
