@administrators @obsidianspider hmmm Interesting.

I probably misunderstood @RobotLimeLtd reply. On my version 4.1, yes I did have the SegaCD bios file in the bios folder. That I know does work. When I went to go update to 4.2. I simply formatted my sd card so there is nothing on it. Installed RetroPie 4.2. Plugged in my USB that has all the roms, bios, configs just like if your adding a new game (not over the internet). If that makes sense. All my games such as NES, MegaDrive, Atari, PS1 (which has bios) all works fine. SegaCD does not. I never once tinkered with where the files.

I love the new fixes on it though.

@administrators " you've modified something on your system that has changed the defaults." What modifications can I have done to make it change? I only have changed the occasional ES themes and changed the splash screen.

Overall thanks for the responses!! Means a lot. I may just install the new update at a later time.

@edmaul69 got it. I didn't have ssh on, thanks.

@hanone said in 2 Questions Regarding Organizing Roms In emulationstation:

There should be an option, which hides ".bin" files, but i found another solution.

There is - and it's enabled by default for Emulationstation. Could you please stop reviving old topics to advertise your so called 'solution' ?

@dedbob indeed. Glad you got it sorted in the end.

Now only if the mp3 compression worked... Would sure make my Sega CD library smaller.

@druval You can always convert to a single chd file and also save space. Try it with a iso\bin\cue you didn't touch:p

@Darix i would try sega cue maker. .ccd should work with it. Not sure about the other two. You can also try renaming it to .bin then running sega cue maker if it doesnt work the other way. Yes i know its a different format but i have gotten several games to work that way in the past.

This is very odd,Had to re flash the image and everything is working again,It like it couldn't load the bios file to the Sega Mega CD weird..:D so this has not happened to anyone else then,This will teach me to copy my SD card to a image,just got to copy the videos and other images over and it done,but I will make a image of it once it done so if it happens again they will not be a problem,I think it was a space issue..So remember don't let the SD card run out of space.

Please mark topic as solved

SEGA CD isnt expecting .zip files:

Yeah I would rather the cue and not bin files listed. You can always add the extension manually though.

I am hoping that seeing as how supergrafx now supports chd format that it will make it's way into the genesis_plus_gx core..saves a LOT of space and tidies up nicely.

Won't have to worry about missing cues and no music ect...

Could be that annoying bug that many people faced with the new version. Really what @Floob said; check the following file:

/opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg

If it has a lot of code you need to delete the file, update the RetroPie Install script, re-install the emulator(s). I had a similar problem with the Genesis emulators and this solved it, I hope it works for you like it did for me.
