That's a retroarch log file. We need the attractmode log file. Post your C:\mame\ShmupArch6\ShmupArch6\last_run.log file.

That log file doesn't show any failed game launches. Run attractmode, start a game or two that fail to load, exit attractmode and then copy the last_run.log file so we can see the game launch errors.

Try this. It will cause a delay for the game to load so give it a little time. If it doesn't work provide the updated last_run.log.

Code: [Select]
# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.6.0
#
executable           C:\mame\ShmupArch6\ShmupArch6\retroarch.exe
args                 -f -L C:\mame\ShmupArch6\ShmupArch6\cores\fbneo_libretro.dll "[romfilename]"
rompath              C:\mame\ShmupArch6\ShmupArch6\roms
romext               .zip;.7z
system               Arcade
info_source          listxml
nb_mode_wait         5
artwork    marquee         C:\mame\shmupmame42_64bit\marquee
artwork    snap            C:\mame\shmupmame42_64bit\snap
artwork    wheel           C:\mame\shmupmame42_64bit\wheel

Your executable and args don't match what is above in the log. Changing these will also change your working directory which is not correct in the log.

That doesn't point to an executable. Change it to this.

Code: [Select]
# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.6.0
#
executable           C:\mame\ShmupArch6\ShmupArch6\retroarch.exe
args                 -f -L C:\mame\ShmupArch6\ShmupArch6\cores\fbneo_libretro.dll "[romfilename]"
rompath              C:\mame\ShmupArch6\ShmupArch6\roms
romext               .zip;.7z
system               Arcade
info_source          listxml
nb_mode_wait         5
artwork    marquee         C:\mame\shmupmame42_64bit\marquee
artwork    snap            C:\mame\shmupmame42_64bit\snap
artwork    wheel           C:\mame\shmupmame42_64bit\wheel
