I can't load any GBA rom with lr-gpSP. My bios file is valid, I tested it!
what I know so far:
Edit:
In some posts from other forums dynarec (dynamic recompiler) was mentioned as a problem...
After I launched lr-gpSP (and loaded a game) directly through retroarch, I disabled dynarec and stored (overwrite) the settings for the core AND game.
Now, I tried to launch lr-gpSP from emulationstation... my changes had no effect... still black screen and fallback to the menu... so I think dynarec is not the problem (or maybe my settings are not loaded correctly). It would be illogical if dynarec depends on the launching method...
what I know so far:
- gpSP (without lr-) is working fine, but it's not optimized for retroarch (no hotkeys)
- lr-mgba is no option, the PiZero is not powerfull enough
- lr-vba-next is not supported on PiZero
I modified the retropie-setup script to install it anyway -> PiZero is not powerfull enough...
- lr-gpSP can't load any rom -> black screen -> back to menu (attention: only if lr-gpSP is started through emulationstation menu)
- lr-gpSP works when started through retroarch !!!
- run retroarch from retropie menu
- setup correct path to libretro cores
- load core -> select lr-gpsp
- load content -> select GBA rom file
- its working!!! nice performance (slowdowns are rare) - but why
