      I just installed RetroPie 4.8 for the Pi Zero from the pre-built image. I copied over my 0.37 ROMS and tried launching them in EmulationStation. They all crash but they all worked fine when I used 4.7.1 right out of the box.

      I've made no updates. Just installed the ROMS and tried them. Has something changed with libretro?

      This is what I get from runcommand.log:

      When I run the same command on the command line I get:

      Again, this worked fine with a vanilla install of 4.7.1.

      Thanks

        Just to check the obvious, can you open galaga.zip in your mame-libretro dir and literally confirm the roms inside?

        Also, when you say its 0.37, I assume it is the 0.37b5 version?

        Please read the Docs before asking a new question.

          @orbian like Floob mentioned, I've done in the past. Copied my samples to the rom directory. They carry the same name so it will show as normal...but fail. By the error messages, that's what it looks like because it's seeing the game and running it.

          Also nothing really changed in the structure of lr-mame2000. Here's a tip though... I put all of my ROMs in the Arcade folder so that you can pick and choose the emulator you want to use. Some roms work better with certain versions of mame or even Fullburn.

          You have your roms located in "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro". Check all your roms that they are the roms first, then put them into the "arcade" folder in roms. Then run it and choose the emulator from the run command list. See if that works.

            @jamrom2 said in lr-mame2000 crashes in RetroPie 4.8:

            You have your roms located in "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro". Check all your roms that they are the roms first, then put them into the "arcade" folder in roms. Then run it and choose the emulator from the run command list. See if that works.

            Interesting. I did verify that they are the correct ROMs. I then moved them into the "arcade" folder from the "mame-libretro" and chose lr-mame2000 as the emulator and it worked.

            Thanks

              @orbian No problem. Glad it worked. Keep them all in that folder, you'll find its a lot easier that way
