having a problem with retroarch ive downloaded the latest version 1.8.8 but just keeps crashing on first boot
my switch is on 10.0.2 with AMS 12.0 cfw any advise on getting this up and running would be appreciated
thanks

i think i no what the problem is now my sd card is formatted to exfat so it can handle files over 4gb but it seem retroarch needs a sd card formatted to fat32

hey sorry for piggybacking your post but I also have a problem of retroarch always crashing when i try to open it in album (error code 2168-0002). I think I'm running the latest atmosphere and I'm on 9.1.0. I saw something about running it with title takeover by holding R on any of the titles I have installed but when I do that it doesn't make a difference whether I hold R down or not it just opens the game as usual.

got it ruuning just get the latest version of retroarch and just hold r when booting any ns games that will take you to the album homebrew then just boot retroarch worked for me let me know how you get on as can help if your having any probs

ps retroarch is ok but still lags alot
 
good stuff ok I have mine running too now. I just didn't know you have to hold R when you pick a user after opening a game to give full ram access to retroarch.

RetroArch 1.8.9 is the latest got it going on a exfat mc had no problems with it but RetroArch.com say to format your mc to fat32
best to hold r boot any game and keep r held down pick profile and keep holding r until homebrew menu pops up then just boot retroarch
 
by any chance do you know of a mame romset around here with the top picks that works well?
