Note: On the latest Retropie version, lr-pcsx-rearmed is installed by default. I will show you here how to install PCSX-ReARMed. So, what you need here is to find and install an emulator for PlayStation.Īs said in introduction, you have the choice among three recommended on the official wiki. For example, a N64 emulator in Retropie allows you to run N64 games on a Raspberry Pi. It is valuable.Install a PSX emulator What is an emulator?Īn emulator is a software that allow you to run games for another computer on your current computer. It’s a few steps but if you’ve spent hours playing a game, the save data represents actions that were made, memories that were created and time that was spent. Optional: back up your PSV and SRM files.Run your game with Load Content and verify that the save data can be accessed and loaded.Alternatively, you can run your game once, identify the created SRM file and replace it with the one you made. Place these files in your RetroArch’s saves folder.If you have many MCR files, you can use a batch renaming tool or a simple command line argument like “ren *.mcr ?.srm”.Next, you’ll need to change the file extensions from MCR to SRM.If you have multiple game saves, make a new Memory Card tab, import another PSV and save out the MCR.The file name needs to match the name of your disc’s image file. Hit the Save button and choose (*.mcr) as your save file format.To efficiently mimick this, we’ll need to use MemcardRex to save one memory card file for each game.

This process is documented on ’s Help Library.You may rename these files and if you do, make sure to edit the cue file with any text editor to refer to the renamed bin files.You should see 1 cue and 1 or more bin files with names that represent a timestamp of when the dump was started Check your RetroArch’s downloads folder to confirm files and their sizes.Grab your desired PS1 Disc and use RetroArch’s Dump Disc feature to store your disc locally and relieve of it of its spinning duties.Download the “Sony - Playstation (PCSX ReARMed)” core.Head on over to RetroArch’s website, download the program and install or unzip it.Hardware Used: PC, PS3, USB Memory Stick for both PS3 and PC, PS3 Memory Card Adaptor Get RetroArch Going Here are roughly the steps I undertook to get this going.
