Loading PSX games kicks me back to menu screen.

Motokoko

Hello, I've been trying to setup a RetroPie for my dad for Father's day. All of the emulators work except for the PSX/1 emulator. Whenever I attempt to load a PSX/1 game it brings me back to the PS1/X roms menu.

I've tried EBOOT files, cues,bins, and none of them work. It's not the roms I've tried loading on my PC PSX emulator and the roms run just fine.

The BIOS file that I am using on both my PC and my Pi is SCPH1001.BIN

Thank you in advanced.

What pi are you using, and what games have you tried. Make sure that both the .bin and the .cue are in the psx folder.

I am using a B+ Pi and the games I've tried are Command & Conquer Red Alert, Brigandine, and Tactics Ogre, and the bins and cue for all of the games are in the same directory.

I've checked the runcommand log that was created after attempting to run one of the games. Here is the log:

I've reinstalled the lr-pcsx-rearmed binaries from the RetroPie setup menu,but the emulator still kicks me back to the menu.

The Layer Cake

I also have this same problem, even tried iso's & still fail to start. It doesn't seem to matter what game I try either. Like the OP, I tried reinstalling the binaries to no avail. Can anyone help? I'm running 3.8.1 on a Pi3.

not sure. but if you want a more useful error message, try exiting to command line and doing (for the OP's example)

gdb --args /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-pcsx-rearmed/libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/psx/EBOOT.PBP

then ENTER. that will start the debugger command line, then type run and ENTER, and then it should run and crash again, then you type bt then ENTER to get a useful backtrace, then paste the entire contents of that process here.

note that this is for working on your pi directly. if you do this via SSH you need to do tty /dev/tty1 before run, to make it run on your tv rather than try and run in your remote terminal window.
