Just curious as to how you start up a PS1 game with Retrix. I know this sounds trivial but I haven't been able to test anything yet as I cannot get anything to start. I'm using SCPH-5501 bios that I dumped from my PS1. So I know it's not a Bios issue. I have both the .cue and .bin files in the same exact folder, and when I select .bin it tells me "File contains multiple files please select folder that contains the files" then when I do that I get an error about "missing files, please install in settings"... I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. Again I have the bios imported and the .bin and cue files for the game in the same directory. I don't know what I'm doing wrong

You need to select one of the game files (bin/cue), then also select the folder the files are in.

I am posting this in the thread on Gbatemp too.

Games made up of a single files work as before, this is to fit with UWP sandboxing.

I forgot to remove the "LibretroRT.Test" Project from the source tree when i was compiling lol. I went back and removed it and it works fine now :)

i've tested one game (bust a move 4) and got the error with other games

"missing files, please install in settings"

That means you need to install the Playstation bios files in RetriX. Get those files and go to the app's settings page.

just tried all 3 bios on pc and got unable to load maybe it wont run the game so it crashed

edit: i think if you launch the cue file first it has better launch then a bin

Regarding selecting the encompassing folder for multi-part games:

On XBox by default you can initially only select files, not directories. You have to go into the desired directory, then press 'select' button on the controller to get the option to then finally "select" your present directory itself instead of the file within.

Still, I have yet to get PS1 core to work, then get an error that my files are corrupt (which otherwise work perfectly fine on Beetle PSX/Retroarch).

The BIOS files are recognized by checksum - if you are trying to use a file that is not the exact same one RetriX expects (like a different BIOS dump or a dump of a different revision of a console than the expected one), you will get the error.

Hi. Is it just me or psx emulation on xbox is slow? None of the games I've tested run smoothly. I know psx emulation was just implemented but wanted to check your experience with it.
By the way, great work with the other cores. I'm really happy with the emulator so far.

It is a known issue and I think it's just BeetlePSX being too heavy for the Xbox One.

I'll look into PCSX-R at some point.
