      Is this core still working? I have installed it today with some games and the right bios

      I updated from source and ran it about 3 days ago and it was still running. The source might be broken at the moment. I'd recommend trying compiling again from source either later today or tomorrow.

      but none of the games open

      Which games are you trying?

      I've only tested 3 games and these 3 worked for me:
      Chip Chan Kick
      Dragon Knight IV
      Return to Zork

          Kishin Douji Zenki FX Vajura Fight looks like a cool game so I decided to give it a try! It sames to work for me but slow motion like all the other games I've tried. I had to edit the .cue file. It was the correct name but had the wrong case. Remember: Linux file names are case sensitive.

            @backstander thanks it was my issue too, the extension (.BIN) was in different case. Now is working but has you said, it's slow, I have tried at 240 but still slow, hopefully will get better with future releases.

              I sure hope so too! I think they are on version 0.9.42 so maybe it will be more optimized when they hit that version 1.0 ;-)

                I think I'm going to try to put this PC-FX banner on the Wiki

                    @backstander i would love to have this running full speed. I have had a complete set for years hoping to be able to play them one year. Looks like a lot of cool japanese anime games on the pc-fx. Way too slow at the moment on the pi.

                      I have wanted to try this out on a PC running x86 Ubuntu but have been way too busy this summer but I would also love to have it running full speed on a Pi. Hopefully one day on the Raspberry Pi 5 we'll be able to get it working full speed ;-)

                      Doh! If I find a good hardware shot I'll update it but it could be another 5 months lol
                      I like this PC-FX graphic because it is a good quality PNG with a transparent background
