FB Alpha doesn't work with 7zip mame roms

RetroArch General
#1

Hello,

I can not launch my mame roms with libretro fb alpha. I don’t know if it is because they are:

  • in 7zip format
  • merged roms

this is the command line I use:

$ ./retroarch -L '/home/legluondunet/Ordi/Jeux/Emulateurs/RetroArch/ra/cores/fb_alpha_libretro.so' '/home/legluondunet/Ordi/Jeux/Emulateurs/Arcade/Mame/Roms/roms/kof99.7z' 
RetroArch: rarch_log_libretro: [libretro INFO] :: [FBA] Archive: kof99
RetroArch [ERROR] :: rarch_log_libretro :: [libretro ERROR] :: [FBA] Failed to find archive: /home/legluondunet/Ordi/Jeux/Emulateurs/Arcade/Mame/Roms/roms/kof99
RetroArch [ERROR] :: load_content :: Failed to load game.

Thank you for your help.

LGDN.
