REVPOD Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Pardon me if this has been asked before, but I can't seem to get Retroarch to play my 3DO games that have been compressed with 7Zip. I've been using the unzip before playing option with Sega CD and it works like a charm (.zip). 7Zip files though, seem to be an issue. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks! Quote
sundogak Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 I assume you are using the 4DO core, right? If so, that core works with zip, 7z and CHD compressed formats. I just tried a 7z Battle Chess ROM set and it works okay. Inside the zip/7z files should be a cue and bin filed that is named correctly (i.e., your cue file references exact title of the BIN file. CUE you can open with text editor). You might try unzipping a file into a folder and trying to load the cue file uncompressed. Unless there is some issue with the 7z file or it was compressed with a bunch of subfolders inside. Other than that, if you said the zip files are working then you could use a batch file to convert the 7z to zip, but again, shouldn't be the case since should work with 7z as well. Quote
REVPOD Posted October 14, 2018 Author Posted October 14, 2018 Thanks for the help! I'm a little embarrassed to find that my files were the culprit here. I think something is corrupted with my 3DO roms to begin with. Quote
