@StigNasty U can always just take the *.bin *.BIN from the es_systems.cfg <system> <name>psx</name> <fullname>PlayStation</fullname> <path>/media/usb0/roms/psx</path> <extension>.cue .cbn .img .iso .m3u .mdf .pbp .toc .z .znx .CUE .CBN .IMG .ISO .M3U .MDF .PBP .TOC .Z .ZNX</extension> <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ psx %ROM%</command> <platform>psx</platform> <theme>psx</theme> </system>

I was having a similar issue to you and i converted my files to PBP files. It saved a lot of space and made getting images easier (without any duplicates)

@jojin Look in the Docs, there's sections for each emulator, look over the Getting starting guide, the Emulationstation pages, then later on you can take a look over the RetroArch and Advanced configuration options. Feel free to ask in the forums also, there's no wrong question (well, almost).

it's the first option in that menu!!! sorry guys - all fixed - thanks for your patience and help. getting the games working is more fun than the games.....maybe.

non of the psx games will play either

@BJRetro I think I did the lr. But when I went to update, I could not find the binary option. Only from source. I'm also not sure what the difference is :s Thanks for the tip, this might be it. Will look up how to do it.

it was a lack of .bin files, found a huge PSX games pack online somewhere in the correct .cue format.. but had no idea it was the .bin file until i came across it on another forum a few hours after posting this so thanks guys :D

You know, on first glance I thought there were multiple required files in each primary folder, but it looks like there are only identical .bin and .cue files for each game. Since they are not being recognized as duplicates anyway, there should be no issue moving them up a directory. Thanks for the help!

This is why I unpack ALL archives as it avoids ANY issues with unpacking them via the emulators that support archived ROMs and also saves stress if your using just an SD card for all your RetroPie useage, except for NEOGEO, FBA and MAME that MUST stay as a ZIP file

@mitu Awesome man!!! Thanks, was that suckin show metadata only. Thanks a lot

@darksavior said in psx emulator not working. tryd everything: @steptoe Eh..even the most minimal of compression, eboot conversion is still my preferred way. Especially to convert multi-disc games to a single eboot file. You still need a cue file for .img. It also doesn't hurt that just about every US release is already converted and it's more convenient to download those instead. I pretty much do the eboot way as well cause some of my games i have copied over to ISO's would total up to around 1.4GB which after converting them to eboot files it would usually drop down to a little over 900mb instead which i am able to add more games onto my Pi because of that.

If you don't want to change your .cue file, you may test this option: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/22013/redirect-solution-for-cue-bin-problem

@pcnoob90 try to find .spi file from your game (maybe your game is protect "epsxe"). I have the same problem for FF IX and FF VIII. Add the spi file solve the Black screen for me. Jyu

@nicky_s14 did you read that

@nicky_s14 Have you tried transforming them into EBOOT files files ? They can be compressed while changing the format.

Man, i know nothing about Linux, so i think i will just leave this backup away and download my roms, there aren't many roms anyway, so no problem with that. Would like to thank everyone, my retropie is running perfectly now: @mitu @jonnykesh @markyh444 @Sano @chipsnblip @BuZz Dont know what is more awesome, raspberry/retropie itself or its community :)

thank you!

@lostless was simply just bad rips. Thanks

Was thier anything special you did ,I tried rename my armored core save file to the name of the second armored core and it did not show up.
