Reicast standalone will not run even with md5 verified bios

mitu

@tinkerbell1268 The BIOS files look ok, but I don't think you're using the latest Reicast version.
Please add the info detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

If 'Start Reicast' works, then what is the issue ? It seems Reicast is running.

@mitu
I tested,
if remove bios from /config/dreamcast/data 'start reicast' can be run but when press dreamcast bios , say : bios not found
I think this issue related to reicast when load bios.
Although I can't understand glGetError 0x500 and solve it

tinkerbell1268

anyway to run redream on rp 3?

mitu

@tinkerbell1268 If I try to run a similar file, I get:

...
Loaded /home/pi/.reicast/data/dc_nvmem.bin as nvram

chd: chd_open failed for file /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/dreamcast/sonic/Sonic Adventure v1.003 (1999)(Sega)(PAL)(M5)[!].gdi: 6
gdrom: Failed to open image "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/dreamcast/sonic/Sonic Adventure v1.003 (1999)(Sega)(PAL)(M5)[!].gdi"

which seems to indicate it's a bad disc dump or Reicast doesn't know how to load it.
Do you have another game to try ?

tinkerbell1268

when I change emulator from omx to oss , game run , but quit unexpectedly

tinkerbell1268

@mitu
I tested "Vigilante 8 - 2nd Offense v1/Vigilante 8 - 2nd Offense v1.000 (1999)(Activision)(NTSC)(US)[!].gdi" don't run with omx but run with oss

tinkerbell1268

@mitu
my question is why Vigilante don't run on omx(default reicast)?
