      I accidently deleted some psx files to clear up some room and then my PlayStation roms went black, you can only see black but can hear audio. I tried looking in local/share/trash but couldn't find anything, the only way I know how to get the games to run is through "load recent game" and then it works fine, how do I get the roms to work from the psx-rearmed emulator.

            @w1ck3rm4n we need the log file.

            https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#launch-with-verbose-logging

            Launch with verbose logging. Copy the log and post it here (via pastebin.com).

            An easy way to access the log file (if your Pi is on your home network) is copy it to your roms folder, where you can access it from the network share. Press F4 on your keyboard to exit EmulationStation, then copy the log file with the command:

            cp /dev/shm/runcommand.log /home/pi/RetroPie/roms
            

            Then you can access it through the network share from a Windows computer on the same network, by navigating to \\retropie (if your network doesn't recognize hostnames, you can try \\your.pi's.ip.address) in a File Explorer window (you'll have to open "roms," the log file will be inside it.)
