Retroarch emulator (ps1 problems)

mitu

This looks right - so the re-installation did its job. Do this to get the file

run the game, then exit the emulator.
exit EmulationStation
copy the log file to your ROMs folder with the following command:

cp /dev/shm/runcommand.log $HOME/RetroPie/roms/

get the file via file shares from \\retropie\roms and post its contents on pastebin.com.

You forgot to enable verbose logging when running the game - can you give it another try ?

DrBarda

No problem.

OK, I don't see a problem with the input mapping:

...
[INFO] [udev]: Keyboard #0 (/dev/input/event1).
[INFO] [udev]: Plugged pad: SHANWAN Trust Gamepad (5215:453) on port #0.
[INFO] [udev]: Pad #0 (/dev/input/event0) supports 0 force feedback effects.
[INFO] [Autoconf]: 2 profiles found.
...

So the controller is definitely detected. You might want to change the controller type (from Dualshock to something else) and see if it gets to work in the game.

I tried that did not change anything in that regard. Some youtube videos actually advised even reinstalling the psx emulator.
As a whole new problems have arised, that some games do not start up at all in the ps1 section. No other problems in the other emulators.

When trying to start Driver 2. When the infogrames logo comes up it starts to have such glitching effects, but since i have save state i can reach a level, that notices that i do not have a controller plugged in. 20200401_155340 (1).jpg

I can only think maybe i should delete all of the ps1 games, reinstall ps1 emulator, and then manually put them back in otherwise I just avoid ps1 games forr now.

This may be a bios problem.

Tried out different bios that retropie advises SCPH 1001, SCPH 5501, SCPH 7001. All have the same effects. Tried reinstalling again same effects.

Still appreciate the help you were trying to provide.

looks like you're running an old version of retropie. you should update.

@dankcushions I provided the information of my raspberry unit to the best of my ability in the posts above.

I tried reinstalling. After reinstalling had to imput login information at the boot screen. Even after the update the ps1 emulator doss not respond to button presses.
