      @backstander Yeah. I think the same. Mednafen isn't avaiable for Raspberry PI 3's Retropie.

            I broke down and gave the download a try. I was able to play it using the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core without any modification. However, using the same BIOS, I was unable to get it to load with any of the available PSX options in RetroPie. I know it's disappointing, but it could be that this game is simply unplayable on RetroPie.

              @mediamogul yes I tested on Windows but I think libretro cores are cross platform
              and the same improvements in all systems.

                I might be misunderstanding you, but the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core isn't available for RetroPie.

                  @mediamogul I didn't know that core was not available. What cores available for psx in retropie then?

                      lr-beetle-psx

                      beetle is mednafen. they renamed it for whatever reason.

                      but... only pcsx-rearmed has an ARM dynarec, which means only those two cores will give playable performance on a pi system.

                        @dankcushions Then can somebody try with beetle even with poor performance? just to see if it boots.

                        Pcsx has not as good compatibility as mednafend psx/beetle.

                          I tried it with the same European BIOS that worked on my desktop machine, but it didn't do anything.

                            @mediamogul Strange... But @horaciowm seems to forget that emulators are not 100% compatible with all games, and not all games work the same in every emulator.

                                  @horaciowm Hello, I register just to be able to comment on this post.
                                  I am also desperate, all the games work except the ISS200.

                                    @machuna wow. I can't believe so many people are looking for the same game. We should form a club! :)

                                    Indeed, I had a hard time tracking down the game because even though I have the original CD here and can play it on my ps3, I no longer have a CD drive on my laptop for a few years now, and the game isn't released as "ISS 2000" here in Europe, but only ISS, which matches all the ISS PRO games instead:)

                                    Yes, I confirm the same. I have tested it exhaustively back in September and then around Christmas time after updating the emulator from source. Nothing helped.

                                    Was hopeful that the latest update would help but I see no commits there whatsoever that would seem to help.

                                    Might be worth posting a bug at the actual emulator project:

                                    https://github.com/notaz/pcsx_rearmed/issues

                                    Best.

                                      Try and download it from a different website like [Redacted: read the forum rules].

                                        [Redacted: read the forum rules] sounds like a pretty good website.

                                          @thepk The game it's not working in pcsx-rearmed, (it works on windows emulators), downloading the game from other websites will not make the game magically works.

                                            @pjft Hello! ISO already found it. I have several.
                                            But none works.
