      I have been using retropie for years and I have never had that problem before. When launching some games, I get a segmentation fault . In this case, I can replicate it consistently with the Asteroids games for Mame.

      This is the output of the runcommand log file:

      I thought it may have something to do with the retropie version, but I just updated everything right now and restarted my RPI4, and the problem persist.

      I have played this game multiple times in this machine with the same configuration, without any issues.

      Any ideas what could be happening?

      Edit: It seems to be only this game. All other games I have tried from the same romset (Mame 037b5) run just fine with mame2000. But it used to work in the past...

        @xwons maybe some core changes or some issue due to newer GCC. It's a very old codebase. It's not a good emulator choice btw for anything but a raspberry pi 1/0 - you would do better to use at least mame2003 (or advancemame with some configuration can be excellent for vector games).

          @buzz Thanks for your response.

          I might be that. I used that specific version of mame because I already had some roms from the appropiate romset.
