Help needed. PSX games no longer run

Emulators
1

Hello everyone,

While customising the folders in retro games I’ve gone ahead and deleted everything in the original PCSX folder in the launcher directory, and created a new one with a new action.config, setup for the correct folder locations for my roms and the emulator file.

I replaced the pcsx file in apps/emulators with ‘pcsx_rearmed_libretro.so’ and created a bios folder in the same folder as the action.config and placed the scph1001.bin in it.

Now when I go into retro games and select the folder I’ve created for my ps1 games all the titles are showing, and I can select them. When they run however, they are excruciatingly slow to the point of unplayable. Previously I was able to run all my games perfectly.

Can a kind and helpful soul tell me where I have gone wrong?

You put the BIOS in the wrong place.

Make a folder called BIOS in /home/cpi/

And set your BIOS directory to that folder inside of retroarch.

I had set the current folder of the bios in retroarch previously, i didnt get a no bios error so i figured it was working. In any case by complete accident I appear to have found a solution a moment ago. I deleted the existing emulator files, and had the gameshell download and set them up again - everything is working flawlessly now. Very confusing but I won’t complain.

I think ill give modifying things a rest now. Thanks for the help though, appreciate it.
