PSX ROMs not working ios 7.1.1?

RetroArch General

Can anyone confirm retroarch is working with psx ROMs on ios 7.1.1?

I’m desperately trying to fix a crash-on-psx-ROM-load problem. I’ve reinstalled retroarch, downloaded the scph1001.bin BIOS file(and changed to all lower case), placed it in var/mobile/documents/.retroarch folder. I’ve downloaded FFVII and Crash Bandicoot from coolROMs, placed in var/mobile/documents/ROMs, unzipped them to .bin files. Every time I choose a psx ROM it then asks me to choose core, I choose the psx ReARMed(only option as others don’t show up) but it crashes straight away. Also it might be worth noting that after it crashes, a pcsxr.log file is placed in var/mobile/documents, here’s what it reads;

Starting PCSX-ReARMed 0 Running PCSX Version 1.9 (Jan 11 2014). psxMap: warning: wanted to map @80000000, got 0x61f9000 Init new dynarec

Somebody save meh!

Cheers

That’s not very encouraging, since it’s failing on the dynarec init. This jailbreak may not be compatible with dynamic recompilation. Usually, it’s been the tethered jailbreaks that didn’t support them.

Wow. This sucks :frowning:

You can try testing the mupen64 core to see if the interpreter works and the dynarec doesn’t.

Yup, n64 ROMs are working

MrSevenX posted about this in the Apple section of this forum and it’d probably be helpful if it was a sticky. Dynarec isn’t working with A7 devices and ios 7.1.x (i.e. 5S, Ipad mini retina and Ipad Air) causing the available PSX cores to crash on launch, but you CAN run the non-jailbreak version of PCSX-rearmed.

Runs FFVII fine for example.
