Cannot get any games to work - updating, then return to menu

[philh99]

I have a couple of .img files I have ripped which all run on Psxdroid, so I am sure the images are good.

I have extracted everything, including the last update of Crash, after the 2.3.4 update.

I have left everything on default this time and converted Grand Tourismo 2 - Arcade disk, which is said to be working on the compatibility list. I have then copied files to my phone, but they show the updating... screen briefly, then return to the previous menu. I have tried to run without the SD Card in to confirm it is looking for the data on the SD Card and I do receive the message that the SD Card is not present, so I am happy everything is setup and copied to the correct place, as per the instructions.

I do not receive any errors or messages while running the program.

Here are the contents of the psxperia.log file:

The .img files should all actually be .bin files to convert (that's how it works for me)

[philh99]

It does say they should be image files, which I take to be either .img, .bin or .iso. The program doesn't complain about the image file, it does extract.

Oh I see what you've done wrong. The .apk and .zpak you need is the USA one not the EUR!!!

Thanks, I have been on the xda developers forum and seen this. I have just downloaded the data.rar from one particular thread and I have successfully converted my first game and it does play. Colin McRae Rally. Thank you very much for the replies

And, of course, thank you so much for a great program.
