    Hello

    I am using RetroPie 4.2 on my Raspberry Pi B+/Zero
    USB Keyboard
    Ethernet
    1 amp power supply

    I have tried getting the PCSX-Rearmed emulator to work for about 2 weeks now. I had it up and running and play PS1 games no problems on RetroPie 4.1.20, but i updated the software and all my emulators and now the PCSX-Rearmed do not work.
    The Bios are in the right folder and my games are bin/cue.

    I tried:
    Install a new image (RetroPie 4.2)
    Install the emulator again
    Updated from binary/source
    Install a older version of RetroPie (3.8, 4.0 and 4.1)
    Tried a Basic install
    I updated the RetroPie-Setup.script

    I have my computer connected and can look through the shared folders, and found the emulators.cfg file and it say:
    pcsx-rearmed = "pushd /opt/retropie/emulators/pcsx-rearmed; ./pcsx -cdfile %ROM%; popd"
    I then used the RetroPie's file manager and found the path, but it does not contains the pcsx file

    Does anyone have any ideas

      @ToThrane it's lr-pcsx-rearmed. the standalone emulator is not installed by default.

        @dankcushions it's not the Lr-PCSX-Rearmed. As i mentioned i install the PCSX-Rearmed. The emulators.cfg file contains both path:

        lr-pcsx-rearmed = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-pcsx-rearmed/libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"

        default = "pcsx-rearmed"

        pcsx-rearmed = "pushd /opt/retropie/emulators/pcsx-rearmed; ./pcsx -cdfile %ROM%; popd"

        The libretro emulator works but the non libretro does not.

          The binary for rpi1 is broken (must have failed when rebuilding optional packages) - im rebuilding. You can install from source in the meantime.

          I would recommend the libretro core though over the standalone emulator.

              @ToThrane They use the same codebase so should be no performance difference, unless you have changed some settings (eg turning off dynarec)
