Title: Attract Mode Covering Emulated Game
Post by: aaronr33 on September 15, 2016, 08:30:55 PM

So when i load ADVMAME and FBA games in attract mode the games load, but attract mode front end shows instead of game?

Sega Genesis does not do this?

I have installed v.4 image on my sd card and did not change any config settings.

Why would the front end do this?

That screenshot is pretty bad. By the look of the error you need to change the emulator.cfg file. They should be pointing to ".../runcommand.sh" and not ".../runcommand.she".

So this problem occurs only when i set a exit hot key in the attract mode emulator menu???

i.e.

exit_hotkey          Backspace



So seems this is a bug.  Now i have to use hotkey feature in retroarch to exit emulator.
