Game "Beyond the Beyond" doesn't work with beetle-psx-libretro #26

Closed orbea closed 7 years ago

orbea commented 8 years ago

The game "Beyond the Beyond" doesn't work with the beetle-psx-libretro core and crashes upon starting. It does however work with the pcsx-rearmed core even though I'm not using an arm device and other games do work with the mednafen core.

Crashes with the mednefen core.

Seems like it has problems with the cuesheet names. Give a gdb backtrace so we can tell where the segfault occurs.

Here is a backtrace.

That isn't helpful at all. You need to build with debug symbols. It's clearly not finding something, most likely an error with the cuesheet or maybe you just have one of the required BIOS files.

I just added a patch that will print what file is it not finding so it's less cryptic.

orbea commented 8 years ago

Sorry, I'm not that experienced with gdb yet.

I rebuilt beetle-psx-libretro and here is the new error message.

The scph7003 bios has the same md5sum as the missing bios according to mednafen's and your documentation, but was renamed for whatever reason. This doesn't seem to cause a problem with pcsx-rearmed, but I guess the mednafen psx core has issues while Tales of Phantasia worked because it was an iso from another region where the bios hasn't been renamed.

So I tried:

$ cp scph7003.bin scph5501.bin

And now it works... It probably would be best to update both the documentation and the mednafen psx core so that the scph7003 bios also works.

Additionally, what is the proper way to rebuild retroarch with gdb support? Building it with something like: "-Og -ggdb3"?

bleakassassin commented 8 years ago

I just tested the game (NTSC-U) and don't have any issues playing it with this core. I use a renamed SCPH7003 BIOS (out of necessity, of course).

It's not exactly common knowledge that the two BIOSes are the same. Using the SCPH7003 BIOS name in the coding would be a bit less confusing considering the strange lack of a SCPH5501 BIOS. That or implementing wider BIOS support beyond what Mednafen PSX itself has.

Warriors-Blade commented 8 years ago

I just tested Beyond the Beyond Redump verified named the same as Redump standard and it has no issues running in the Mednafen PSX core.

The tested OS is windows 7 64 bit.

bleakassassin commented 8 years ago

Aside from any sort of BIOS handling change that this might inspire, it's time to close this issue.

simias commented 8 years ago

In Rustation I iterate over the files in the system folder and select the BIOS based on its size and SHA256 regardless of the file name. Mednafen already has a sha256 database in the source so maybe that could be done in the same way.

rz5 commented 7 years ago

I've done some commits that will be more forgiving on BIOS naming and it will yell at you if the expected BIOS names and/or SHA1 values don't match what it expects.

Marking this as invalid and closing.
