Rpcs3 Games Not Booting From Launchbox?

[launchbox43924i83954]

Rpcs3 itself is working and the games are fine, but I am looking to use LaunchBox as a hub to boot these games, alongside my existing retro game collection. Every time I try to boot these games, it gives me an error saying "failed to decrypt content." None of my previous searches have resulted in much help.... So help would be very appreciated.

What is your LB settings for the emulator? I have non of the boxes checked and no special parameters.

I'm having the same issue, not sure what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated

For anyone experiencing this issue, can you please let us know:

- Do the games run when you launch RCPS3 outside of LaunchBox?

- What command line parameters do you have set in your emulator settings?

- What is the format of your PS3 games (are you using.iso files, or have you installed the files directly to RCPS3's NAND?)

 

Let us know and we'll try to get you sorted

I have installed LaunchBox to help me play some PS3 game with RPCS3,I had installed FIFA 2010 World Cup.The game worked until I installed the last update.Now if I try to start the game it gives me this error message:RPCS3 :Fatal Error .Booting(ROM file and EBOOT.BIN for FIFA 2010 WC ) failed .Reason:invalid file or folder.Thread id=18676.What can I do?It seems that a lot of the updates ,not only for this program but for others too ,seem to do more harm than good.

The game runs when I launch RPCS3 outside Launchbox.My format is JB(not Iso).Where do I find the command line parameters in my emulator?I am not that familiarised with the emualtor so i do not know where they are.

Thanks for the update folks.

To find what command line parameters you have, go to `Tools > Manage > Emulators`. Then edit the RCPS3 item, and let me know what you have filled out for your `Default Command-Line Parameters` and `Sample Command`.

Can you also give me an example of what one of your PS3 games has under `Edit Game > Launching > ROM File`

Let me know and I'll see if I can advise further

Default Command Line Parameters:--no-gui

Sample Command:rpcs3.exe--no-gui"FULL\PATH\TO\ROM\FILE"

Where can I find the Edit Game-Launching -ROM File?

Right click on a game and select `Edit . Edit Metadata/media`.

Then, on the left under the `Launching` section. For an example game, can you let me know what is shown (in all of the fields) displayed in that section

[spookieman]

D:\PS3 ROM's\FIFA World Cup 2010\2010 Fifa World Cup South Africa  BLES00796\PS3_GAME\USRDIR\EBOOT.BIN 

This is shown in the ROM file section.There are 3 other sections that are empty(the Aplication Command Line Parameters section,the Configuration Aplication Path and the Configuration Command Line Parameters Path).This is available for FIFA 2010 WC game.

If you have auto import on (see snap below) then my suggestion is to delete the PS3 platform and re-add as there were changes in how PS3 and Vita games were imported a few versions back. LB now uses the emulator itself to tell what games are to be imported assuming auto import is on.  If auto import is not on or you do not use it then I would delete only the game entry that is having issues and re-add manually. 

Assuming you have auto import on then do as follows:

Create backup of your data just in case. 

Right click on platform and select delete. Most of the time, if you wait a few minutes, LB will reimport the platform and games.   Note it takes the game names directly from RPCS3 so can get some titles you may have to fix to match to LB DB.

If for some reason auto import doesn't re-add the platform then can add by going to Tools, Manage, Platforms, and selecting add

For PS3 and Vita you need to make sure your roms folder for that platform is pointing to an empty directory (not where you eboot.bin files are) as LB uses the emulator entries.  If point to your PS3 folder with files it will duplicate and add things again in addition to auto import. In my case below my "Games\Sony Playstation 3" folder has nothing in it (I use separate drive/folder) but auto import did its thing and added whatever was in RPCS3 outside LB. 

For the folks at beginning of thread who had the issue with the decryption error that is coming directly from RPCS3 and not LB.  Likely that means LB is pointing to wrong eboot file that wasn't decrypted so double check via RPCS3 directly the path to the file that is working.  This is especially the case if you had a PS3 setup prior to the auto import feature being added and then turned auto import on as it can create some odd errors with PS3 prior setups.  Thus, the re-adding platform and letting LB auto import do its stuff may fix issues there.  LB has nothing to do with decryption otherwise.

My version of RPCS3 is quite old(over 2 years now).Maybe this is the cause.Thanks.
