Thanks for all the replies!

I have all the ps1 roms working. Still can't get any T-16 cd roms to load.

I made sure the Bios files is right. The problem must be that instead of the bin file.....there is an ISO image file that does not end in an extension.

@dankcushions

Wow, thank you for all your help! I probably never would've found eboot files if it wasn't for you. Happy New Year friend.

There's no need to expand file system via raspi-config.

@aberusugi said in Booting to command line after installing basic package:

I go into retropie config and install basic package

What "basic package" is it?!

@edmaul69 btw I broke it when I first put it in. should be fixed now where the bios actually goes where it says its supposed to:

@markyh444 Unfortunately some are not willing to spend the time, but are happy to waste our time (By expecting us to mind read) :)

Oh, I understand now. I read it again.

Please update retropie setup and do a source based installation again.

Need nes roms with headers. Also please provide more information when posting as mentioned in the link at the top of the screen and as agreed when you signed up.

@retrorehab They're basically the same hardware, just a different sized board and smaller USB/HDMI ports and that, so the image works for both. Later Pi's have different hardware so required a different build.

@Pixel0501 when you say "my" password, you aren't talking about your Mac OS password are you? The default password for retropie is ........ raspberry. Another question is have you logged in via ssh before? Because if you have and had to start over by reinstalling retropie, Mac OS has a security feature that keeps logs of MAC addresses and ssh keys, and when you try to log in again it will stop you since the new retropie install will not be using the same key. Mac OS tells you though and tells you what file you have to edit to remove that log.

@NintendoFan64 Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@rbaker I think he's saying the link doesn't provide an answer to his question. Which is true. It provides an answer on how to get help to get an answer to his question.

But again if he'd read the documentation on it I don't believe he would need to ask.

@redlv known issue:

https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/6304/desktop-from-ports-fails-to-load-4-1

I was able to get Version 4.0.2 working (https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/releases).

The problem might have been a faulty microsd card (two microsd cards destroyed by two rpi's in one day :-( ).

I recommend using etcher (https://etcher.io/) to burn the microsd card, it does a verify after writing the image.

@daeks Thanks for the suggestion Daeks. I have created a pull request for the changes needed to show .cue files and will look into integration of my toolkit into the web app. Thanks again for the suggestion.

@Jaapdaniels1984 nevermind, found out i missed some symbols wichs when retrned the system is again not detected... darn i don't understand why it fails to see my machine's name...

@ND Thanks for using my Vine to demonstrate. I was using the Pi2 at the time I filmed the Tobal2 Vine (English patched version btw). And I recall that this was using unfiltered textures. But it ran fantastic given the fact that the game itself ran in Hi-Res and 60hz.

I just upgraded to a Pi3 courtesy of the missus and so was quite surprised to see your video running the game slow on Pi3. But glad to see it's been sorted so I'm keen to play this again soon. 😀

oh ok , i did some search here aswell but could not find any similar advise

i just use the default ones.
sorry i am quite new to retropie :)

tought it was install and have fun kind of thing

It's all in the wiki should you wish to read it...
