Launching ps1 games is broken after adding bin-file

mitu

Have you verified that the BIOS file is correct ? The checksums for a correct BIOS file (SCPH1001.bin) are listed in the Playstation 1 page.

NoobGamer

@mitu Yes, the 1001 file was working before I added the 1000 file

mitu

That's strange, since pcsx_rearmed doesn't support the scph1000 BIOS. Are you sure you didn't modify any core options - like enabling the HLE BIOS ?

Enable debug logging when launching the game, then post the log file again - but on pastebin.com.

NoobGamer

@mitu Will do that tomorrow!

NoobGamer

@mitu No I didn't enable the HLE BIOS.
I enabled the retroarch logging and this is the result:

I don't see helpfull information in the logs myself but I hope you do!

mitu

The log seems fine - unless the BIOS and/or the .img file is not correct, there isn't anything that stands out.

NoobGamer

@mitu So you don't have any suggestions for me how to fix the issue?

mitu

update the emulator from source.
change 'CD Read mehod' core option from 'async' to 'sync'.

NoobGamer

@mitu Where can I find the CD read method? I can't find it

mitu

@NoobGamer It's in the Core option, accessible when opening the in-game menu with Hotkey + X.

NoobGamer

Yeah, but I can't acces that because I can't launch the game.

mitu

You can remove all pcsx_ core options by editing the \\retropie\configs\all\retroarch-core-options.cfg file, this will reset all options to default.

NoobGamer

@mitu That worked! Hero! Thanks for your quick replies!
