      I have Vulkan enabled on my system, and PS2 games are running without issues.
      I can upload my backup image (without ROMs or BIOS files) if it complies with the forum rules.

        Sure, Did you install aethersx2 from Retropie Extra as is and did the changes here ? Do you have the checksum of your BIOS?

          yes i belive you can, RapidEdwin08 has a image up also and that have been fine.

          so i think if you do like you said, post it without ROMs or BIOS files. you will be fine

            Yes, I have Vulkan enabled from mitu commit and the AetherSX2 emulator from ExarKunlv RetroPie-Extra repo. Also, lr-Melon DS and lr-swanstation.

            The PS2 BIOS files that I used are:

            ps2-0230a-20080220.bin CRC32: 286897c2
            ps2-0230a-20080220.mec CRC32: 054a6ec2
            ps2-0230a-20080220.nvm CRC32: 57210b91
            scph30004fr.bin CRC32: 9386a740
            scph30004fr.mec CRC32: 054a6ec2
            scph30004fr.nvm CRC32: 0509cea5
            SCPH30004R.bin  CRC32: 9386a740
            SCPH30004R.MEC CRC32: 054a6ec2
            SCPH30004R.nvm CRC32: 5e0200d0

            scph39001.MEC CRC32: 054a6ec2
            scph39001.nvm CRC32: 4e873b8e
            

            The image is 2.89 GB zipped and 16 GB when unzipped. Just use Pi Imager with the zipped file.

              @sugarfree thanks for doing this.
              i can use this to see what will and will not work from RetroPie-extras

                I did many tests and it doesn't work. Here's step by step what I did from the begining for aethersx2:

                • in config.txt --> kernel=kernel8.img

                This is usually the culprit for seg fault on pi5, double check kernel8 or pastebin the config .txt to verify.
                Can try to set X11 from sudo raspi-config - Advanced Options - Wayland - X11 Openbox Backend.

                You can also try an Alternative Retropie-Setup script module from here: aethersx2.sh

                The PCSX2.ini included in that one is configured to look for BIOS and Mem Cards in:

                home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS
                

                That particular script module will not overwrite the current aethersx2 config PCSX2.ini.
                You will want to either back up or delete the current PCSX2.ini before installing.

                home/pi/.config/aethersx2/inis/PCSX2.ini

                  home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS

                  Here's the folder location from PCSX2.ini

                  [Folders]
                  Bios = ../../../../../../home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS/ps2

                  Textures = textures
                  InputProfiles = inputprofiles
                  

                  I don't see any problem here.

                  Could it be the local depends (aethersx2.sh)?

                  function depends_aethersx2() {
                      local depends=(matchbox-window-manager xorg xserver-xorg-input-all mesa-vulkan-drivers pulseaudio pipewire-media-session-pulseaudio)

                  }
                  
                  function sources_aethersx2() {
                      gitPullOrClone
                  }
                  
                  function install_aethersx2() {
                      tar -xzvf AetherSX2-v1.5-3606.tar.gz -C "/opt/retropie/emulators/aethersx2"
                      chmod +x /opt/retropie/emulators/aethersx2/AetherSX2-v1.5-3606/usr/bin/aethersx2
                  }
                  
                  function configure_aethersx2() {
                      mkRomDir "ps2"
                      
                      local launch_prefix

                    Thanks, much appreciated. I tried, but same result. I tested all BIOS versions on the net and nothing happened. Could this be related to the SDL2 version? I will continue to investigate?

                    Here's my config.txt

                      @DTEAM someone correct me if I'm wrong but, looking at your config txt,
                      I think everything you put in #New, including kernel8, is not being applied because you put it all under [cm4].
                      You should move it up to before [cm4].

                        you might have something there

                        i put all my changes after [all]
                        but before would probably do the same thing

                              For your script, if a controller is not listed in the SDL database, you can use this procedure to add it by replacing this

                              sudo bash -c 'cat ./out.txt >> /opt/retropie/emulators/ppsspp/assets/gamecontrollerdb.txt'
                              

                              By this

                              sudo bash -c 'cat /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/out.txt >> /opt/retropie/emulators/aethersx2/AetherSX2-v1.5-3606/usr/bin/resources/game_controller_db.txt'
                              

                              It works, like with PPSSPP

                              NEW edit: Touch screen (on Pi5) also works well with this emulator

                                  @DTEAM i never changed it since there is no point, \ it does not work. since the yuzu shutdown. the main files that the LR core builds from are gone, and even through people have repos with the new locations.

                                  it still does not work. there is LIME that does compile and works. i just have not made a script for it yet

                                    Is Citra Nightly the same emulator?

                                      @DTEAM yes and no.
                                      That's going to be the standalone emulator. Not a LR core.
                                      It might work. Might not. I have not bothered to try I'm going to go more for lime since it's got more of an active development going on. And most likely less chance from being shut down.

                                      But hey who says we can't have more then 1 right.

                                      I say give it a shot if you know how

                                      Here is my issue page on GitHub. That has a few things.

                                      If you like give it a shot

                                      https://github.com/Exarkuniv/RetroPie-Extra/issues/193

                                      I'll take any help

                                        @ExarKunIv it might be worth avoiding anything switch or 3ds related at the moment given the position Ninty have taken as of late? I'd keep a backup of your git respiratory in case they send a takedown notice so you could in theory redo it without the Nintendo related aspects

                                          @retropieuser555 im not worried about it. all they can do it kill where the files come from, thats it.
                                          since im not hosting anything. it will just stop the script from doing anything, like it is right now.

                                            To play PS2 games like God of War II at fullspeed on Pi5 with Aethersx2, you must set EE Cycle Skipping at Maximum Underclock (major impact) and Disable Cheats. Affinity Control Mode is set on Performance Cores. I don't see major changes with the last two settings.

                                            I also overclocked my Pi5 . Don't know if it has a positive impact.
