      Hi.

      I recently installed Retropie version 4.8 on a Raspberry Pi 3. I have successfully configured several emulators, but in the case of MAME (lr_mame2003) there are some ROMs that do not load. When I try, the typical screen with the messages appears: "Launching galaga (lr-mame2003) ... Press a button to configure..." but, after this, the game does not appear, returning to the list of games.
      Below I paste the contents of the runcommand.log file that I obtained after launching one of them with the "Verbose logging" option, in case someone can interpret for me its meaning.

      Parameters:

        @SenorDeCameros Read https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Arcade/ and/or https://docs.libretro.com/guides/arcade-getting-started/ which is more in-depth.

          Thank you very much for your answer, @barbudreadmon .

          I have read the documentation and found a solution, which I suppose is the correct one: all my arcade ROMs were in the folder /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mam-libretro, so the ones that weren't working I moved to the folder /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade, configuring them to use the lr-fbneo core. This way they run correctly, some with the ARCADE emulator and others with the MAME emulator.

          Regards.

            which I suppose is the correct one

            Not exactly, the recommended one is to choose an emulator then pick the romsets for it, not the other way around. The reason for this is that testing each romsets with each emulators is time-consuming and might force you into using emulators you should probably avoid (decades-old emulators full of bugs and/or missing some nice features).
