@rva-818x-laystar Don't use 'Reset' from RetroArch's menu, since it will disable any configuration done by RetroPie - including the BIOS folder used as 'System Dir'.

Rename the retroarch.cfg file from the pcengine folder or delete it, then re-install the emulator before starting any PCEngine games. Re-installation will re-generate the RetroPie's default configuration for pcengine.

@BuZz - Boom. That did it. Thanks!

@mitu That didn't seem to work unfortunately. BUT after getting another batch of ROMs I was able to get them working! Not sure what was happening with the other ROMs since they worked on my PC but these ones seem to work fine. Hopefully I don't have any further issues.

Thank you for the help!

@quicksilver I love this game! I was kinda bummed that they didn't include this on the TurboGrafix Mini, especially since I don't believe it was even ported to another console. When I first got into RetroPie, one of the first things I did was beat the Quest mode. It took like three or four months! I'm planning on streaming the Quest mode on my Twitch stream, FYI. I want to find a better way to stream it first but it will definitely happen!

@mitu
Testing the frame rate, stayed a steady 60fps..
No clue where the sound issue is coming from but it's always done it with this game..

@showstopper no that location will not be overwritten. You will have to manually update that file from now on if you add new systems to emulation station.

@Darksavior any news on a retroarch update btw?

@mitu Thank you so much. This solved my problem. I never knew there was such trouble just copying files. And thanks again for the advice, copying over wifi and ssh 10.000 small files is really a bad idea.
:)

@Breadbin As long as the system has 4 working controllers (regardless of how they're connected), it should work. The only possible configuration would be in the emulator options, to enable multi-tap if it's not the default.

@mitu I think it's from the limited specs of the Pi Zero. I was actually really surprised that both CD based systems even worked on a Pi Zero in the first place. Somebody told me that they tried CHD files for both emulators on a Pi Zero and the Sega CD didn't perform well. Essentially a CHD File is a modified 7zip archive, so I'm not really surprised. I will eventually test it myself and update this thread when I know.

@edmaul69 In the end I tried a different game, I hadn't tried others as I'm not a big PC engine fan just wanted to play that particular game, no problem.

So I acquired a copy of the game from a different source, and that's running no issues. Must of been a corrupt file or something.

Thanks for your input @Darksavior @lostless

@ruckage Not fan of these emulator boxes. There are way too many other emulation boxes that do a better job like the Nvidia Shield TV. Original OEM Hardware will always be the best and can never truly be replaced. You can use your carts, flash carts, HDMI adaptors, original pads, pheriperals, no lag, and no glitches. Ps i’m looking for parts to repair my PC Engine let me know if you plan on selling the original motherboard.

I copied the syscard-file only in the bios-folder and didn't change the names of my cues and bins.
Everything runs fine.

@backstander said in Question regarding .pce file format for PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16:

Has anyone played the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow games?

I have not. The last "new" CV game I played was 'Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth' on Wiiware, so it's been quite some time. Konami has such a bad reputation these days, that it pays to be cautious. It really is a shame too because thirty years ago they could do no wrong.

you can try with UXS : https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/5291/soft-universal-xml-scraper-v2-easy-scrape-with-high-quality-picture

Glad you got it sorted. Happy to help.

I have a pi3 and the retropi setup screen says VER 4.1.10 at the top.
