      Hi,

      I updated Retropie and after that my Advance Mame stopped working. When selecting a game in attract or ES i'm booted back after a second. Everything else works. Its just Advance Mame.

      I can run adv-mame directly in command line eg. /opt/retropie/emulators/advmame/1.4/bin/advmame aliens
      But /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ mame-advmame "aliens" does not work. Looking in /dev/shm/runcommand.log it says it's missing files:

      ERROR: required files are missing, the game cannot be run.
      

      Anyone who knows what could be wrong? I have feeling runcommand does not know where to look for the rom.

        Are you sure you have the default emulator set to advmame 1.4 and not 0.94 ? check the runcommand launch config -

          Thank you! Of course it was set to the wrong adv-mame version. :)
