This looks like a bad ROM. If it worked before, then try re-copying the ROM file and see if it starts working again.

@mitu it was working fine. If I go to Retrorarch and look at past games played and launch from there is loads. but any game I try and run from main menu will not load

As I said, try copying again the ROM archive file and see if it works. You can get more info by enabling verbose logging from the Runcommand launch menu.

@mitu thank you will try again in the morning. Your help is greatly appriciated

Corrupted SD card maybe ?
-
I have banged my head on this one. If I go to retroarch and go to history and select a game I previously played from there. (in this case Astroids) it loads fine with all previous high scores intact. if I go from game menu I get nothing
-
@ken-tipton Are you sure you're loading the same
.zip
file ? The previous log shows the file is empty:[libretro ERROR] [MAME 2003] Error in zipfile asteroid.zip: Empty file
-
@mitu yes I am. I looked in the folder and as you said it was empty. I don't know why it was empty. I looked at the one on my desktop and it had 4 txt files in it. every time I would drag it to the Raspberry Pi and look in the folder it would be empty. I then deleted the folder completely from both the PI and my computer and downloaded a new rom and loaded that to the PI. The files stayed in the folder that time but still failed to load.
-
@ken-tipton Power fluctuation? Like a loss of electricity during a storm or a brown-out? Maybe something got corrupted (or hardware suddenly failed) without you knowing.
-
@iandaemon just checked and all other emulators work as they should it is only my arcade folder utilizing MAME games.
-
Here is another game. All of them do the same thing.

so I removed the Arcade folder completely and replaced it with a know good folder and same thing. I think it may be the emulators. Where is the root directory for the emulators. The Arcade folder I added has emulators in it but these are not the ones that show up on the game so I assume the parent files are stored somewhere other then the Arcade folder.
Thank you
Ken -
@ken-tipton Why did you put emulators in the ROM folder? How do you expect anyone to be able to help you when you "customize" the files and file locations?
-
@iandaemon I don't think that's what they meant. The log shows the emulator is in the usual place.
@Ken-Tipton the emulator is
retroarch
, in/opt/retropie/emulators
. Do you have any remaps for the game ? Did you use the RetroArch's RGUI to reset/save the configuration file ? -

- I copied entire Arcade folder to my desktop PC
- I deleted Arcade folder from retropie via ssh
- I reloaded a known good Arcade file from another sd card. (I played games on this card and they loaded fine.) I copied the Entire Arcade folder from this SD to my Desktop PC then loaded it to Retropie using ssh
- Inside the Arcade folder are game roms and emulators along with art sets.
- I went to retropie setup and updated my most used emulator cores.
