Launchbox incorrectly showing that PS2 Bios is missing - Bug?


Recommended Posts

  • 1 month later...

The issue reported in the Launchbox forum regarding the PS2 Bios (LINK to bios REMOVED) appears to be a bug related to how the software verifies the BIOS path. A user named Santherus noted that while they have the correct BIOS files in the expected directory, Launchbox incorrectly indicates that the BIOS is missing. This discrepancy arises because Launchbox seems to be referencing the folder name as "bios'" instead of "bios," potentially causing a path verification error. 

Despite this issue, the user mentioned that they can still launch their ROMs using the "Play anyway" option, indicating that the functionality is not entirely impaired. The user has raised this concern for the Launchbox team to investigate further, suggesting that it may be a simple path naming confusion within the software's verification.

Just as a confirmation/summary; the actual issue of the incorrect reporting of the BIOS isn't resolved: There's the below option (noted by the devs) as a sort-of-workaround. Not one for me, but YMMV.

"Update is already out. You can just check the box to not show the BIOS error in LaunchBox if you don't want LB to warn you about stuff like that. No functionality has changed in this version once you check that box and ignore the feature."
