No, you didn't. If you did, it would be working...


Try:
1. You should use Atmosphere CFW
2. You MUST LAUNCH RetroArch via the "hold R while launching game method" https://gbatemp.net/threads/use-atmosphere-to-access-full-ram-with-homebrews-without-nsp.521240/
3. For the core to load properly you must: Open RA using step 2 -> Load Core -> PPSSPP -> Load Content -> Select PSP ISO/CSO. (Note: Core DOES NOT SUPPORT ZIPPED OR RAR'ED GAMES!)

Notes:
- When you change any core options in PPSSPP you must Exit the core and reload it!
- Save states work now, but to load a state, you might need to load state then immediately enter RetroArch menu (To prevent crashing)
- Some games require a savestate to load (As in from another version of the core on PC or other system)
- Some games just simply will not work.
- Some games require OC while others can use UC.

A faulty iso or cso would also crash retroarch. Does it happen on every game?

Where did you get the core? Right now only m4xw's core works. Also, which Horizon OS are you on? 7 or 8?

 

[leeaesthetic]

Install RetroarchRedirect.nsp and launch the game from there. That solved my problem.

If you play online while in CFW this will get you banned. Be careful!

Going online while in CFW will get you banned. Thats why theres 90dns and incognito.

Maybe try backing your retroarch folder and put it in your pc for a while then install a fresh retroarch copy on your sd card and try running ppsspp again with the updated cores.

Yes. No im on atmosphere. 8

Missed this post this is most likely the answer. Retroarch is not working right on 8. Downgrade or wait til it's fixed.

but even before i updated it didnt work

Well that doesn't help anymore because you did upgrade and Retroarch is broken on 8. You can downgrade and then maybe we can figure out what was wrong there but if Retroarch won't work right there's nothing anyone can do on the firmware you're on.

And your wrong retroarch does work on 8.0

LOL m4xw said otherwise in the Retroarch thread. He's the one that makes this shit so you're wrong. You're just being a crybaby now.
