SuperDerpBro Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) Recently found out Beetle supports compressed CHD PS1 games but they fail to launch from LaunchBox while BIN/CUE launch fine.. Any ideas? EDIT: Just in case someone stumbles across this in the future.. https://forums.libretro.com/t/playing-roms-directly-from-archive-which-systems-work/12249/3 That is where i first found out about how to do it. Works great. Here are the required files. Cue or GDI to CHD.zip Edited September 19, 2017 by SuperDerpBro 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I just looked in my info file for PSX and no chd was listed so I updated both the core and the info file and after that it shows chd as a excepted file type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS76 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Yeah I have no clues as I've never used the program at all I just copied what the text says. I've seen CHDman in my MAME folder tons of times but never used it for anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orac31 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Thanks Doss76 I put it in the search bar and found the redit post used for /r %%i in (*.cue, *.gdi) do chdman createcd -i "%%i" -o "%%~ni.chd and that worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperDerpBro Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 The PC i am using for a small emulator box is to slow for demul i guess . Is there a way to boot CHDs with nulldc? Reicast in Retroarch just crashes with every game i try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
