I set up msys2 and tried out a Windows 10 64 build. I was able to reproduce the problem you described and correct it. I haven’t tried it on Windows 7.
@te_lanus Good news, 4-Tris also crashed for me on Windows. Even better: the change made to fix GemaH’s problem seems to have fixed that problem as well. With any luck, it will also work for you.
For anyone who looked at it: I don’t particularly care for the fix, but I’ll take it.
Frog Bog graphics bug is fixed now, thanks!
There are a few more issues i found. In Frogger, the graphics also seem to not be correct, when the various lanes move you can see them flicker/disappear or change shape. This shouldn’t happen normally.
Also, i have trouble starting some games. Frogger (for instance) doesn’t move no matter what buttons i press. In Dracula i can choose players and difficulty but i can’t start the game. In Donkey Kong, i can select players and difficulty but when the game starts, i can’t move. This lack of control seems to be a theme with many games where you choose number of players and difficulty.
There isn’t universal agreement on what controller should be “player one”. Pressing select will swap the left and right controllers. That should let you move in games like Donkey Kong.
For Dracula, after selecting the number of players and difficulty, you’ll press ‘8’ to start.
As of today, RetroArch and Lakka users can download a new ‘assets’ pack from the online updater and enjoy playlist and ROM icons for Intellivision in the XMB menu by @baxysquare. Thanks!
Could you describe your PC RetroArch environment?
It might be useful to know your processor, video card, operating system, and anything else in terms of hardware & OS that you think could be relevant.
Maybe one of us has something similar to test with.
Are your operating system and video drivers fully up to date?
I’m running Ubuntu mate 16.04 (fully up-to-date) with a GT240 (with the latest NVidia drivers for it) on this with 3gb memory
Retroarch is installed from the testing ppa
I have only compiled RetroArch from source in Ubuntu other than some idle playing with Flatpack. Once I get some time I’ll install it via the testing PPA and see if I can reproduce this crash – maybe in some way it’s related to the PPA. I don’t know much about that technology and it seems unlikely, but maybe that’s the wildcard.
(Hopefully not) speaking of crashes, Twinaphex just let me switch on libretro buildbot support for FreeIntv for Playstation Vita. I have no way to test that platform, but it would be great to hear about the experience of anyone who does give it a try.
I recently (this morning) compiled retroarch on my machine, and it still fails to load. 
The buildbot is now compiling FreeIntv for the PlayStation 3.
I also added libretro builbot recipes for FreeIntv on the PSP, Nintendo 3DS, Wii, and WiiU. I’m not sure how to tell if those cores are building or not, but they may be! 
The FreeIntv github repository has a new, long-term github repository address: https://github.com/libretro/FreeIntv
That’s right, it’s moved the rest of the way into the libretro ecosystem. It feels so official!
Nothing specific is changing by virtue of the repository’s location, but it’s one small step towards long-term availability of the core.
Thanks again @recompile Woot!
Tried it this morning, and it’s getting almost there. RA starts by showing the window then the notification of my controller gets shown then it crashes. It no longer crashes on loading, but when it should be starting to show something.
It might be worth another go, I just uploaded a lot of small fixes that might help.
nope, still loads to where the video should kick in and then it crashes
This week in FreeIntv:
If anyone else wants to take a look at the failing PSP build, here is the link:

Did a test tonight and this is the crashlog I hath: https://pastebin.com/PWUSUdJp
and this one is done with gdb (not much, since it crashes in such a way that a backtrace is impossible) https://pastebin.com/anMKDzby
Have tried testing this on 3 x Android Devices now and crashes. Same behaviour & problem on all. Samsung Tab s3 , Samsung S8 & minix u9-h. Retroarch build is 1.7.1 FreeIntv core was obtained from online updater. Once installed it can be seen as a selectable core but is unable to load. RA crashes after an intellivision rom is selected to load. Using good Bios & Roms.
hi, the same here. Is someone has arrived to download this core form shield tv on android? the core is visible in the list but no seem to be loaded. Thanks
Nice to see a new Intellivision emulator. I tested it on Windows 7 and have some comments.
It runs too fast. It’s about 15% fast which is a lot. Reset/restart crashes retroarch.
The sound chip sounds more like an a-y-3-8910 than an a-y-3-8914. There’s a subtle difference between the two and only affects some sounds. It’s a minor issue as it makes it sound like an Intellivision II rather than the original Intellivision.
Some games like Night Stalker and Tron Deadly Discs use the keypad rather than the side buttons. No way to map game controller buttons directly to emulator keypad buttons.
Analog control seems off by about 18deg ccw. I could not get north to work on one of my game controllers.
Keypad 0 and clear are mixed up. Scrolling sometimes has some artifacts.
Auto Racing graphics are completely wrong affecting gameplay. Dreadnaught Factor dreadnaught explosions are missing the solid screen colour effects. Collisions in Bump’n’jump seem stronger than normal. NASL Soccer has odd ball movements, ball often jumps back to the player. Safecracker has no car graphics. As in the video, Coleco Donkey Kong can’t pick up the hammer. DK Arcade works but the graphics and control are screwed up. Ms Pacman starts but crashes after the game is setup and ready to start.
There is a variation to the .rom file format. Looks like Freeintv supports the intellicart .rom file but not the cc3 .rom variation. Not sure if .cfg files are supported or if it depends on a database of cartridge configurations. Cfg file support would make it easier to support new games.
Defaults to widescreen aspect ratio rather than 4:3.
I’d like to see Netplay support be a priority for Freeintv. The Intellivision has many good games that are for two players only.
