Can't get a game to launch with attract mode. Running retroarch -f -L /usr/lib/libretro/snes9x_libretro.so EarthBound.sfc
from a terminal works just fine. BTW, I'm using Manjaro Linux. But when I click the game title in attract mode..... the screen just blinks.
I've dried like a dozen different things in SNES.cfg. Right now executable line reads /usr/lib/libretro/snes9x_libretro.so. I've also tried Retroarch -f -L /usr/lib/libretro/snes9x_libretro.so %ROM% and retroarch -f -L /usr/lib/libretro/snes9x_libretro.so
For args I have tried retroarch -f -L "[romfilename]" and "[romfilename]" and -f -L "[romfilename]"
How exactly is this supposed to be done?
-
executable Path\to\Retroarch\retroarch.exe
args -L "Path\to\Retroarch\cores\snes9x_libretro.dll" "[romfilename]"
-
Well I dont have dll files but ill try something similar when I get home

OK for anyone using linux the config is as follows:
executable retroarch
args -f -L /usr/lib/libretro/snes9x_libretro.so "[romfilename]"
-
I have to ask what the -f flag is for... (OH! fullscreen)
I use ubuntu mate everything works fine for me.
here is what I use
executable retroarch
args -L /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libretro/snes9x_libretro.so "[romfilename]"
to use the -f flag I had to do this:
executable retroarch
args -L /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libretro/snes9x_libretro.so "[romfilename]" -f
you can set the full screen flag from the retroarch gui though that is what i did
