Homebrew Having a Problem with Retroarch and "The System will now Restart"

[Kouselka]

Hi! I have a problem with my Retroarchs .3dsx in my console

Everything is Work Fine, Picodrive, CPS1, CPS2, Gpsp, Etc but... I Cannot Configure the core or Make a Savestate because it do a black screen or (Mostly) crash

Look this Example:

So, As we see, Everything is Fine but when I Touch the Touch Screen to Configurate the core...


(Translate: "An error has occurred, forcing the software to close. The system will now restart")

Something know why?
I'm using Retroarch 1.6.7 in a N2DSXL with B9S and Rosalina 2.0.0
If Something Ask, I Test Retroarch 1.3.0 And the same...

I have no clue, but try deleting all retroarch files except for game saves and reinstalling it plus the cias.

Done and test it, but it's the same thing
There is a manual Mode to do that? Like a program or edit a file?

Retroarch gpSP unfortunately still has an unfixed bug with the dynarec which causes random crashing, use virtual console injections instead to play GBA games. The emulation doesn't have many frills, but is 100% accurate with nearly every title.
Also, the XMB UI seems to crash as well, switch to the more stable rgui in the menu by heading to the driver options in settings.

you write that you are using the 3dsx versions. Since you have cfw, you should better use the cia versions of retroarch and do not forget to put the menu driver on rgui in the 1.6.7 nightlies to avoid crashes.

Where is that option? I go to Settings but there is no "Driver" Option anywhere...

goto settings -> driver -> menu driver (It's the first option in the second column if you are in xmb)

I'm having a similar issue. Followed all the steps in 3DS Guide to install CFW on my 2DS XL (11.6). Installed the latest libretro on my system, via CIAs. Went to boot up PicoDrive, crash. Tried Genesis+...crash! SNES9X....CRASH! None of the Libretro cores seem to work. I'm pretty sure I've followed all the guides/steps, but they keep crashing. Also tried switching over to the rGUI, as suggested here. No luck...the only emus that work for me are mGBA, Gameyob, Snes9x (bubble2k16), and VirtuaNES. Zero problems with those...but I can't find one like those for Sega or GG titles...regardless of the fact that none of the Libretro/Retroarch cores seem to work at all on my system. This is maddening. Please help! :'(

did you also copy the retroarch folder into the SD root ?

I did indeed...saw something about how Luma3DS 8.1.1 doesn't play nice with RetroArch anymore...true/false? Solutions? :-/

I´m on the latest nightly from this link https://astronautlevel2.github.io/Luma3DS/ and have no problems with retroarch, if that´s the reason.

Okay...reloaded, moved everything over, loaded PicoDrive, changed to rGUI, loaded core, loaded content, selected appropriate core...and NOW it works...dunno if i skipped a step or what, but it's working now. -_-
