      Hi, i make a fresh install of retropie 4.6 and update to 4.6.8, the emulators lr-mupen64plus and lr-mupen64plus-next not loading roms, the rest of n64 emulators works perfectly. Whats going wrong??? Because i want to use lr-mupen64plus-next specially.

            @Codafire said in N64 libretto emulators not working:

            i cant see the link

            most likely Step 5 and the stuff below it

              @ReadyPlayaWon ok thanks!!! here we go

              Pi Model: 4 4gb
              Power Supply used: 5v 3amp
              RetroPie Version Used 4.6.8
              Built From: Pre made SD Image from retropie official
              USB Devices connected: 1 gamepad
              Controller used: playstation 2 type gamepad
              Error messages received: N64 games go back to select game menu when using libretro emulators, it occurs with all file extensions (n64, z64, zip...) And all roms

              I come from working with a pi 3b+, im not new installing and configuring but i dont know what its going wrong here, the only changes i made to the original image from retropie web was, change config file from boot unit for hdmi problems when powering up raspberry, update it from source to 4.6.8, switching main menu controls A - B and activating SSH to acces throught Putty and WinSCP.

                @Codafire slow down the language, we're trying to keep this forum an all ages place.

                Regarding your issue - please get a verbose log from running the game and post it on pastebin.com.

                  Mmmmmm, thats strange.... I tested it in a 7" truck monitor and in a PC monitor and libretro n64 emulators runs perfectly.... only not working on de TV.... Maybe an issue of HDMI?

                    This is the verbose log:

                      Not really, you didn't choose the verbose log option when you started the game - the log should be much larger, that's why I asked to use pastebin.com (it's difficult to search/look at the text in a single forum post).

                      If it works on other display types, then maybe the resolution is a factor - what resolution do you have on your TV ?

                          The resolution is 1080p (1920x1080), I don't find any errors in the file - except that the ROM looks like a hack (?), the archive says is 'Super Mario 64 (USA).zip', but the ROM is actually 'Super Wario 64 V1.0 by Rulesless (Super Mario 64 Hack)'.
                          Can you use the Runcommand launch menu and switch resolution - before launching a game - to 800x600 ? See if that produces a different result.
