Extremely slow "sony computer presents"?

[Lordmonkus]

Then it is most likely a bad disk dump, there should be a .cue and a .bin file and you have to load the .cue. There can be other disk image types that can work but cue + bin are the most commonly reliable ones, they are the standard.

Epsxe runs it tho?

[Lordmonkus]

Yeah like I said previously, just because one emulator will load and play a certain it doesn't always mean any other will. The Saturn emulation is a really good example of this, both Yabause and SSF are much more forgiving with the disk dumps compared to Mednafens Saturn emulation. Mednafen is a much more accurate emulator and requires proper disk dumps, this is true for both the Saturn and PS1.

Oh man, i got it to work! Or rather we got it, it was a bad bios dump involving a few renames. Thank you so much man

[Lordmonkus]

Glad you got it working

[KUPOkinz]

And hey what do you know, the sony presents only takes its normal 2 seconda instead of that 2minutes  now to relax, take a good happy smoke and continue on gaming. Thanks again

[Lordmonkus]

No problem, enjoy.

Dear god if it isnt one thing lol, everything is fine runs perfect but when i go to change my settings like internal resplution, it crashes after hitting exit retroarch. Actually it crashes period when i exit retroarch. Any more help ?

[Lordmonkus]

Crashing on exit I am not too sure on but for changing the internal resolution I would suggest using the hardware version of the PSX core, it handles it much better than the software one.

[KUPOkinz]

No actually it crashes only after a psx game is loaded and i go to click exit in the retroarch ui.

[Lordmonkus]

What happens when you press escape on the keyboard ?

[KUPOkinz]

This is what im doing. Im bringing up the retroarch menu with f1 after losding a game, and moving to the quit retroarch causes it to instantly close with retroarch has stopped working. Same thing with escape key.

[KUPOkinz]

However im able to play the games fine.its just closing out of retroarch.

[KUPOkinz]

This would be fine if it was just able to save my options but it reverts back to default core options upon reopening retroarch.

[Lordmonkus]

Unfortunately that one I have no idea on. I have never run into that issue personally and a quick google search turned up nothing other than one person asking the same question on reddit but got no response at all.

[KUPOkinz]

Omg im just going with psxe until i get my net bacl friday. Im so stressed over this lol.

[KUPOkinz]

Are saves compatable between the two? Ill just reinstall retroarch and eveyrrhing this friday.

[Lordmonkus]

I don't know but if I had to guess I would say no but that really is only a guess.

[Lordmonkus]

A quick google search did turn up this, no idea if it works or not though.

Make a copy of your memory card (inside memcards folder in ePSXe), memcard000 is your slot 1 while memcard001 is slot 2. Make a copy of the one that has the save of the game of your preference, then take the EXACT name of your rom (e.g.: Trash Candypoon 2.bin) and rename the memcard file to "Trash Candypoon 2.srm". Then transfer that file to your vita in the /retroarch/savefiles folder.

Edit: Removed the link after digging into the site a bit more and finding there is stuff there that shouldn't be linked to.
