Copy bios files to /storage/emulators/bios.Ħ. Download libretro full cores from the configure menu of the retroarch addonĥ. If you already have roms following my instructions using emulationstation and retroarch you would be up and running within 10 minutes if you follow it correctly.Įxample for running everything from SD cardĢ. I have given more than enough information to get you playing games. Ive never used AEL someone else will have to help you with that I'm affraid, like I said in another post, I came from retropie that's why I chose the emulationstation approach as I know how it works. I'm going to look closely at your options and re-evaluate my approach, probably emulationstation seems best since I've seen it working with RetroPie. The fact that it did work for SNES was encouraging. I'm not tied to the current approach, I simply chose it as it was looking like the minimal amount of fuss. In AEL configuration there's a 'Check retroarch BIOSes' option that if you point your Retroarch system directory to the place you copied the BIOSes to it checks them and in my case the checksums for what's expecting for PSX (5500, 55) match.īut this is what Retroarch would expect, and as far as I understand I'm using RetroPlayer. I managed to place the bioses to ~/.kodi/addons/-rearmed/resources/system and the missing-bios message goes away, but the emulator now core-dumps I can't see where it tells me to upload the bioses, it's showing up briefly on a upper-right bubble when I start a rom, but it goes away before scrolling to show the whole message. I first had the issue where PSX roms would start (although complaining about missing bios) but the buttons would be dead, pads/joysticks funtional - can't even start a game without working buttons. This worked like a charm for SNES, but for PSX not so much. Thank you robmcc83, I really do appreciate!īased on your earlier hint I went and chosen a different path: installed AEL from a zip file and the desired emulators: snes9x2010 and pcsx-rearmed from standard LE/Kodi repos, then proceeded to define the launchers that called RetroPlayer (at least to my still shaky understanding that's AEL/RetroPlayer approach that none of your 3 alternatives cover).
