bios location not found

[mth75]

Hi all,

I've a strange problem. The location of my bios files can't be found anymore after updating the RetroArch package on my 3b+ (Stretch, latest version packages)

For example, the Playstation, Videopac and Intellivision bios files can't be found in the /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS location (which used to work before). Some emulators won't start the selected rom as a result.

When I copy the bios files manually to the rom folders (of the emulators) all works.

I looked through a lot of config files, I can't find the config file in which the location of the BIOS files is set.

Anyone?, thx!

@mth75 Did you use Save configuration on Exit in RetroArch ?

Yes, I did!

@mth75 That's why your BIOS location was borked. It's not recommended to use this option with the current configuration hierarchy used by RetroArch in RetroPie, your options will not be saved properly.
