My PS2 games have all of a sudden stopped working in Launchbox with Retroarch PCSX2 libretro core.

Hello All:

    I was hoping someone could offer some advice.  My PS2 games have all of a sudden stopped working in Launchbox with Retroarch PCSX2 libretro core?  Everything was fine until I tried it lastnight and I can’t figure out what went wrong.  It’s like the libretro core has gotten messed up.  I tried loading content through Retroarch alone and the roms still don’t run.  When I click on the game nothing happens.  Is there a way I can restore the PCSX2 libretro core or re-install it?  All the other games are working fine with Retroarch through Launchbox.  Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Shawn

Just use the stand alone version of PCSX2.

Yeah, I'm working on it.  Looks like it needs a bit of configuration though.  Any links on setting up PCSX2?

Thanks,

The libretro core was a lot easier to setup and it worked seamlessly.  I can't get PCSX2 stand alone to work properly.  Ugh.....  Any ideas why it quit working?

I figured out what was wrong but I'm baffled as to how it happened.  All the PCSX2 folders and files were gone in the Retroarch system folder so I copied them back in and everything works perfectly.  Made a backup of the whole Retroarch folder.  G**Damned software bugs!!!  I'm keeping backups every time I add a new console.  Backup your stuff folks!
