Santherus Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) I've recently been setting up PS2 emulation in launchbox, using retroarch as emulator. There's a bit of an oddity that I wasn't sure whether was a Launchbox or a Retroarch issue; when I attempt to launch roms, I'm told that a dependency isn't satisfied. When I check the dependency (screenshot) It shows that the bios can't be found... except that I DO have the correct bios in the correct location, and that 'Play anyway' will correctly launch the ROMs. I'm posting so that the Launchbox team can have a look - it's reporting the bios folder name as bios' instead of bios (see pic) in the first half of the text - the \system\pcsx2\bios location specified contains my bios files, but I think the verification might be using an incorrect name (with a ' appended) when trying to verify. Note that 'Open Location' opens my pcsx2 folder, not my pcsx2/bios folder. So I'm assuming that there's some sort of path issue confusion due to the ' (maybe)?

C-Beats Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I'll need to take a look at the code but that is not how that window should look. Should list the various BIOS that the emulator supports. I'd try running the installer over your current install again and see if it corrects. Not really sure how what you're seeing would even be possible given the code in place atm.

Santherus Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 Curious. No change on reinstall (13.14) - I should note that the other retroarch core pages DO correctly list the files/dependencies as you stated (e.g. as below). It's just the PS2 page that seems to be reporting strangely. (example of a 'good' page below) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 What's your details page look like? Can you post up a screenshot of that? I'm having a hard time replicating on my end so could use the information to maybe help in that pursuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santherus Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 Details page: Have also checked absolute length of path to the pcsx2 bios folder - it's not excessive at 81 characters in length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 OH, that explains why I'm not seeing what you are... Didn't even notice you're using RetroArch. I wasn't even aware there WAS a PCSX2 Libretro core. I've only ever used (or heard used) the standalone emulator. I'll have to take a look again now that I'm on the same page as you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admiralshinysides Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I'm so glad someone else found and posted this, I've been seeing the same behavior since moving from 13.12 to 13.13 (and subsequently to 13.14). Tried re-installing over the top but exactly the same as OP's issue from my perspective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decept0r Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 (edited) This problem has been driving me crazy too. Same issue, I have the BIOS files but for some reason--Launchbox won't launch retroarch. Everything worked fine until the latest update which changed the settings somehow. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Edited May 28 by Decept0r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobins Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) I'm having the same issue with the Playstation 1. I went to reinstall the platform and it comes with a missing BIOS file. See attched. The file is in 2 locations and none work. Changing the path doens't seem to be reflected in the error message either.
