@clyde Also, that different emulators for the same system can require different bios file names/versions. (as is the case with lr-genesisplusgx and lr-picodrive)

Hi, given the line bios_boot failed to copy bootfile I believe the rom you're using is corrupt. It's failing to find the 1ST_READ.BIN on the disc.

@cmdima You can usually find the BIOS information in the Docs. Also, please don't bump ancient topics, it's bad forum etiquette.

@sssetz Thanks for the updates! Any luck since? Also, you said in your last post someone confirming they had it working for their RPi. What version? 4 I assuming?

@mitu I have been trying to run Flink(U) and Dragon's Lair

@quicksilver thank you, I was going to try that it's nice to have a confirmation beforehand

@Efriim said in Issue with psx and bios:

Sometimes the default directory systems directory isn't right.

Only if you move it, the RetroPie-Setup script will set it to /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS on install - hence all the docs referencing this folder.
This usually gets unset if you use Reset Configuration from RetroArch.

You emulators.cfg for the gba system is corrupted. It should be:

lr-mgba = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-mgba/mgba_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/gba/retroarch.cfg %ROM%" default = "lr-mgba"

Replace the file with the contents I pasted above and re-try.

A Sega CD game? That would probably instantly explain why it isn't working. I knew I found it in a pile of other TG-16 roms so that's why I stuck it there but if it belongs in the Sega CD pile then I'll give that a whirl.

I'll keep picking at this one rom and emulator at a time.

Do you happen to have a laptop? Even an old one?

EDIT: Doh! Necrothread!

@jonnykesh he says he has the no intro rom sets. I cant tell if he is correct or not since i dont know where he got them from.

@hankola copied them via file manager and how I previously did it which was going via \RETROPIE.
think I might need to do a clean install again

Yes, I can see that I have to run most of the games I try at low settings. Not so worried about that, and the Dreamcast and Saturn emulators still have a ton of issues. However, I still want to try. Wish I could figure the exit issues out...... Kinda figured that would be the easy one....

@tonythetiger
That "Sniper Mode" bug is a known issue for Reicast. Check out their official compatibility list:

I watched a YouTube video of someone on an Android phone using Reicast and they had the same issue (from 2014):

More information here and here (both are also from 2014):

@willreaper neo geo has several possible emulators that they could work on. You might want to try as many as possible to find a working one. I recommend trying lr-fbalpha and lr-fbalpha2012

Okay thanks everyone.

thanks! I'm still new at this.
