      have you tried a different rom ?

      my version is Rayman (USA) and it works fine, and is fully playable using lr-pcsx-rearmed

        i was kinda hoping i could gift the retropie to my kids, and they can't rly speak english yet. i know the game doesnt contain much text but if there is another solution than just using the US version id prefer that.

          ok, i understand.

          i just tried Rayman (USA) using lr-beetle-psx (found under Experimental Packages) and it runs terrible.

          Gonna test a Europe version of Rayman and see how it goes ... will be back in 5 mins with the results

              lr-beetle-psx is not enabled on the Pi or other SBC platform, is too slow to be usable. It's only enabled on the PC platform.

                  @adarkar Do you have the proper BIOS files for PSX copied to the BIOS folder ?

                      Just tested Rayman (Europe) and it works fine ... i am able to select language (English, French or German) and the game gets past the Ubisoft logo and am able to play the game using lr-pcsx-rearmed ... runs perfect too :)

                      Tested the game with Use BIOS = auto & Use BIOS = HLE ... both run fine.

                      Try BIOS = HLE ... if the game still doesn't work, it's most probably your Rom.

                          HLE (High-level emulation) is lr-pcsx-rearmed built-in emulated BIOS

                          and here's the Sony PSX BIOS files i have .. which the Use BIOS=auto looks for

                            @dreamcastkid thx! not using the SCPH1001 bios did the trick.
