Sega CD ROMs/ISOs Will Not Load
-
The issue is that it seems that I cannot drop in the .bin file into the web interface.
Have you tried using SSH/SFTP or SMB?
-
@edmaul69 I am using the RetroPie Manager via my browser. When I drag both the .cue and .bin over in the browser only the .cue file drops in and the .bin will not populate
@mediamogul I have only used the browser for RetroPie Manager, I have not networked my mac and Pi together.
-
@Toan you really need to ftp or use a thumb drive to transfer the files
-
@edmaul69 I did try the thumb drive as well for sonic CD and was able to both drop in the .cue and .bin file into the Sega CD Roms folder but I still get the black screen when I try loading the file when using lr-genesis-plus-gx.
-
@Toan when you put the bios on did you have all the caps and lowercase correct in the bios names?
-
@edmaul69 yes I had them names exactly named as posted on https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Sega-CD for lr-genesis-plus-gx and pico drive. I did all thee country versions as well.
-
@Toan the only thing i can recommend is to download a different game from a different location and transfer that with the usb. How long did you let it transfer the bin file? Sftp is really the best way to transfer roms.
-
Agreed, if you followed everything exactly, there should be no issues. Try re-transferring and try other games.

@edmaul69 @Darksavior alright finally have it working now. transferring USB seems to work the best. Tried Cyberduck for SFTP however I couldn't connect. Honestly I tried all of the right steps it just seems like I tried 3 bad games in a row. Thank you for your help.

@Toan you nee to go i to raspi config and turn on ssh. Then on an ftp program you need to login sftp with user pi and default password unless you changed it is raspberry. If you need to use user root to do more then you need to giver root user a password then sftp as iser root.

@edmaul69 got it. I didn't have ssh on, thanks.
