PS1 games that have bugs in retropie

It was a percentage of positive outcome versus possible complications with .cue sheets.
In the end you would get a playable archive format for playstation roms so at least there was a plus.I don't know a lot about PAL region games, I do know the PAL region BIOS mostly end in "2". I thought of the BIOS not region specific at least for emulation. "scph5502.bin" could be tried.

@Efriim you're awesome. Thanks i have no idea about any of this stuff really just reading a trying to learn the basics.
I added a ton of bios folders already no dice, but then i just realized the only bios on my pc running the ps1 emulator pSX v1.13 is the common SCPH1001.BIN .
Will try that popstation program you suggested. Came back good on virustotal and put me at ease. Tried to find other programs like that first program you suggested PSX2PSP i had no luck.
Thanks again! At least now i have a small chance compared to no chance of getting it to work.

Well after turning the Worms Pinball cue file and bin to pbp they won't run on the either of the pi's playstation 1 emulators. It was worth a try though.

Yeah the SCPH1001.BIN has always worked for me, except one game, "Arc the Lad Monster Tournament/Casino". For that one game I had to set the pcsx to use the built-in HLE bios, you can try this by opening the retroarch menu.
Quick Menu >> Options >> Bios selection~ = "HLE BIOS"If the rom is just dropping back to EmulationStation, then you may be able to set HLE BIOS with a different ROM first.
Also you could get a log by running the retroarch pcsx with verbose logging via run-command. There will be 2 or 3 logs then in the /dev/shm/ folder, I forget which one has more useful information regarding the exit status of the emulator and retroarch.I can't really think of anything else right now, updating lr-pcsx to the latest.

@Efriim i just tried everything you suggested and the game still doesn't want to run on the pi. Maybe someday after a update it will work. Thanks for trying to help me.

Anyone here has been able to fix the crash on Driver The Wheelman with pcsx-rearmed?
-
@Chuck_B Don't think so, but that's hardly a problem as you can just use savestates to restart a mission.
-
@BobHarris well, creating a savestate everytime you start a new mission is not very handy solution
-
@Chuck_B It's only pressing Hotkey + R1.. If I ever play that game again, I wouldn't see it as a problem...quicker too as there are no load times.
-
@BobHarris I know the combo. The problem is that you must remember every time to create it
-
Hi! Now pcsx-rearmed has dynarec. Will this help us to play the games we're talking about?
I tested Driver and it keeps to crash. Maybe need some setting?
Anyone tested it? -
@Chuck_B pcsx has always had dynarec for arm32. the new lightrec dynarec is for non-arm32 platforms only (ie, not raspberry pis). it is capable of working for arm32 platforms but a) it’s slower than the older dynarec, and b) it currently has a bunch of show stopper bugs with arm32.
so... potentially, but not ready yet.
-
@dankcushions thank you very much for this explanation :)
-
I recently finished the Final Fantasy 8. The game crashes sometimes at random times. Also vibration does not work.
-
FYI: Bug in Driver should be gone as per https://github.com/notaz/pcsx_rearmed/issues/101

Hi Guys,
I've been using retropie with RPI4 and I confess that is working pretty well with just a few adjustments so the graphics looks better, normally I just need to turn on the "bilinear filtering" and then I change the aspect ratio to 16:9 in order the screen can be adjusted to my TV.
The problem that I found and which I couldn't fix it yet is when I play Colin Mcrae rally 2.0 from PSX, the game plays very well but suddenly when I'm playing it exits back to emulationstation. I've already seen some topics about the same issue but without any solution. I tried many different configurations, both enhanced resolution and enhanced resolution(speed hack) on, I tried it off as well but no lucky. I changed the the cpu clock from 57 (default) to 46, I tried all defaults and nothing fix the issue.
I'm using the bios psxonpsp660.bin
- I tried many different version of the rom and now I'm using the original one (dumped from the CD original to .bin, .cue format).
Any help would be appreciated :)
-
I haven't found any games that down right crash but everytime I play Doom the graphics are awful. Just disappear into each other. Also experience severe slow down on Command & Conquer Red Alert
-
@hawkes_84 Turn off the high resolution option to fix your problems with Doom.
Currently running:
Retropie 4.7 on a Pi 4B 4GB (Overclock Settings: CPU 2100, GPU (V3D) 850) - On hiatus
Emulationstation on a NUC 8 (i5, Windows 11, 16GB RAM) -
I'm using the bios psxonpsp660.bin
This sounds odd, might be recommended for the PSP to run EBOOTS.
The one that should be used with lr_PSXReArmed is "SCHP1001.BIN". -
