Sega CD /MEGA CD not displaying

[Auserisauser]

@sirhenrythe5th Ok so I told retropie 4.7 is the latest because I searched on Google and I got that as the answer. I know that I use the latest ver because I installed retropie very recently like a month ago.

I use ir-picodrive for Megadrive

Yes I have the BIOS file but I am confident I did something wrong which caused it to not load in, in retropie

@sirhenrythe5th OK so I use the Raspberry PI 1
Power supply is a regular phone charger
Retropie version:4.7 (LATEST)
Built from the pre-made SD card image from the rpi Imager
I use a usb for transferring ROMS and use a keyboard for controls
I got a error message on the music which got resolved
The file I use is the Sonic CD (U) !.zip

You have to unzip the file.

Yes, not all emulators playing zip files.

lr-picodrive playing SEGA CD roms with only this extentions : .bin .chd .cue .iso .m3u.

More information about roms and emulators you can check the RetroPie Docs : https://retropie.org.uk/docs

Create the folder segacd into the roms folder and add the game here. Also SEGA CD needs bios files, witout them, you can play the games.

Ik how to do it but like I said it is not loading in

Sorry we can't share bios or roms, or share info, links about place were we can find them. It is ilegal and against of the rules of RetroPie Project.

In the RetroPie Docs you will find info abou the bios you need and where to add them.
