When I'm playing MAME games sometimes the MAME menu just pops up on the screen. I can't tell what button combo is causing this. How can I stop it?

Look in the core options for what the button combination is

Might be L3+R3, which is clicking in both joysticks at once. The only other combo I remember ever coming as default back in the day was plus+minus, which seems less likely to happen accidentally during gameplay.
Edit: I may be thinking of the Retroarch menu and not MAME's own menu.

So with MAME2003 and MAME2003+ able to run MK with little to no Issues, I am curious if RA will have MAME2010 for the Switch to see how well that work?

The scene is pretty dead, don't expect any new cores

Hi! I’d like to know if there’s a way to use gyro controls on retroarch (horizon or lakka) for light gun (or zapper, super scope, g con, etc.) games. I’ve looked for settings or bindings for gyro controls but they are not in the settings menu (there’s just an On/Off switch for “alternative control methods” but nothing else). The only gyro controls I can successfully use are those of the mGBA core, and only on Horizon (found no way to make it work on lakka!), but these are vertically inverted. The easiest example is Kirby Tilt ‘n Rumble. If I play it on retroarch, gyro controls are inverted but work. On the standalone version of mGBA they work perfectly… Please, is there anyway of fixing this? Any ideas for gyro controls for light gun uses?

With the help of dink64 and barbudreadmon , FBNeo can now use Cheats for close to all the MK Games. There are a few Issues:

mkprot4.zip (Limited Codes)
mkprot8.zip (Limited Codes)

Time has Issues:
mkprot9.zip

But otherwise, I Updated the cheat.dat for it. Place in.....

SD Card\retroarch\cores\system\fbneo\cheats\

On latest Build of RA and FBNeo

Wait so there's still some kind of RetroArch development on the Switch currently? Interesting.

That does bring it up, but I am not clicking down on both joysticks. I'm using a pro controller. I'm using the d-pad and the buttons. I thought it was maybe ZR+R but it does just seem to be popping up randomly while I'm playing. Also, I'm not sure where to look, but the options I looked at are
Quick menu>core options>system>Display MAME Menu is set to 'OFF'
Quick menu>core options>Input> Doesn't have any options that seem to be related to this.

No offense, serious question: What has the buildbot link (which I'm aware of) to do with my question?

because all the changes that are made in RA and in cores are built there, both for Switch and for any other platform

Why what happened

 

[M7L7NK7]

Why what happened

Nothing, just the scene has slowed right down

 

[lordelan]

the scene

To be honest though, "the scene" (regarding the Switch) was mainly m4xw so if he slows down, not much will happen.
I can't complain that much though. We've got an amazing current state of RetroArch on the Switch, obviously for free.

its L3 button for Menu when you press it while you use left stick while you play so dont press it just move in different directions lol or you can edit it in hot key in MAME core

I'm not pressing L3 at all. Anyway, I think I found the fix. Going into Quick menu>core options>Input> and setting 'X-Y Device' to 'off' instead of 'mouse'. This is on the MAME 2003 Plus core.

Hi. I started Zelda Minish Cap on my Switch with RetroArch using the mGBA core and then I switched to using VBA Next. When I wanted to transfer my savegame to my PC, the only recognized savegame was the one I started on mGBA. What should I do to ensure that the VBA Next savegame is the one recognized?
