I have a challenge! Help me !

Nismo

@horaciowm That's a CCD image format (Clone CD image) and that's because it doesn't work.

After converted to cue+bin it works for me with mednafen psx core, but I suppose it will work with any core after conversion to the right format.

I used CDmage for doing that, only takes to me 1 min.

Just drag the .cue file on the left box and click on file>save as...

CDmage: http://www.mediafire.com/file/qiccft4dmadinif/CDmage1-02-1B5.zip Only 600kb.

Regards.

@Nismo Hi! Thanks for trying to help me. I tried. Got the cue file, openned with CDmage, saved as .cue. Same problem. Tried with more than two ROM files versions. Can you try too?

Nismo

@horaciowm I tried , it works for me, you are selecting the bad cue, try the new cue, not the old one.

horaciowm

@Nismo are you trying on a Raspberry PI 3 as me?

Nismo

@horaciowm I have not rpi but ccd image it's not supported, you need to convert , it works for me, retropie=retroarch_same cores

horaciowm

@Nismo where did you downloaded the ISS 2000 ROM?

Nismo

@horaciowm I downloaded from link you posted.

horaciowm

@Nismo The game ROM. Not the CDmage.

I tried @Nismo directions and then tested with lr-pcsx-rearmed and pcsx-rearmed and had the same issues with it loading up with the PSX logo intro then to a black screen. I believe Nismo is testing with the Beetle/Mednafen PSX core which is for x86 systems only.

horaciowm

@backstander Yeah. I think the same. Mednafen isn't avaiable for Raspberry PI 3's Retropie.

horaciowm

Must have a way to solve this issue.

horaciowm

Come on guys??!!??

I broke down and gave the download a try. I was able to play it using the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core without any modification. However, using the same BIOS, I was unable to get it to load with any of the available PSX options in RetroPie. I know it's disappointing, but it could be that this game is simply unplayable on RetroPie.

Nismo

@mediamogul yes I tested on Windows but I think libretro cores are cross platform
and the same improvements in all systems.

mediamogul

@Nismo

I might be misunderstanding you, but the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core isn't available for RetroPie.

Nismo

@mediamogul I didn't know that core was not available. What cores available for psx in retropie then?

mediamogul

@Nismo

lr-pcsx-rearmed
pcsx-rearmed
lr-beetle-psx

@Nismo

lr-pcsx-rearmed
pcsx-rearmed
lr-beetle-psx

beetle is mednafen. they renamed it for whatever reason.

but... only pcsx-rearmed has an ARM dynarec, which means only those two cores will give playable performance on a pi system.

Nismo

@dankcushions Then can somebody try with beetle even with poor performance? just to see if it boots.

Pcsx has not as good compatibility as mednafend psx/beetle.

I tried it with the same European BIOS that worked on my desktop machine, but it didn't do anything.
