Lakka 2.0 - PS1 games don't work

Libretro Lakka
#1

I was a Lakka 1.x user with my Raspberry Pi 3, and it’s brilliant; top work! However, now that 2.0 stable is out, I’ve flashed the new 2.0 image to my Pi 3 card (replacing 1.x completely), and replaced everything, and now my PS1 games don’t work at all. They all worked prior to upgrading to Lakka 2.0.

I have the BIOS files correctly named and checksummed and placed in /storage/system, and when I choose to open the PCSX ReARMed core, and go into Information -> Core, it tells me it can see the BIOS files.

The .bin and .cue files are exactly as they were previously (they worked fine in previous Lakka version), and I can go into the command line, into my “/storage/roms/Sony Playstation” folder (which is the mount point for the files stored on my NAS), and use cat on one of the .cue files, and it shows the Binary filename correctly.

But when I actually try to run one of the games, the Retroarch frontend disappears, is replaced by the Lakka logo, then Retroarch opens again like it does when I boot the Pi from power-on.

I’m using the official Raspberry Pi 3 power adapter (2.5A) and have a PlayStation 3 Dualshock controller connected to one of the USB ports - no hard drives or any other devices connected, so I wouldn’t expect input power to be the problem.

If I use the command line to debug, this is the output I get: https://pastebin.com/CrTWLBP71

This happens with every PS1 game. I don’t understand why. All my other emulated systems work just fine.

Any help you guys could provide would be hugely appreciated.

Lakka 2.0 full release?

Hmm, looks like your log isn’t there anymore. Would you mind re-posting?

Well that’s annoying. Pastebin ate it.

Here it is posted directly, without Pastebin…

Hopefully the logs will give you a clue

#4

Anyone got any ideas? Would really appreciate it!

#5

I don’t understand. My PS1 games are working on 2.0.

#6

I don’t understand either. They all worked on 1.x, and the minute I flash to 2.0, they don’t.

Is the output from the log not of any use in troubleshooting? If not, is there a way to enable even more detailed logging?

#7

Lakka v2.0 uses PCSX core to run Psx games, Lakka v1.0 uses a different core (i do not remember) i moved from lakka 1.0 to lakka 2.0 whitout problems (this is not exactly true! :smile: ) but games running on lakka 1.0 are still running on lakka 2.0

#8

There have been no core changes between Lakka 1.0 and 2.0 for PSX.

It has always been PCSX for ARM, and Beetle-PSX for PC.
