@entropicdrift is retrodeck ready for use? I haven’t really heard of it compared to emudeck.

[-] entropicdrift 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

IMO it is. They put a bunch of "oh it's still early days" kinda warnings on their github page but for me it was pretty much plug and play

@entropicdrift i wish someone did a walk through. I don’t know much about the process involved for retro deck.

[-] entropicdrift 1 points 10 months ago

Did you want a video or a text walkthrough?

I used the text one. Worked great

[-] Privatepower42@fosstodon.org 1 points 10 months ago

@entropicdrift ou great. Thanks! I got the roms and bios but I’m afraid that retro deck won’t read it well like it has happened with emu deck. Duck station just couldn’t load up the roms like I wanted.

@entropicdrift can I get both? I like both.

[-] Privatepower42@fosstodon.org 1 points 10 months ago

@entropicdrift I feel like retro deck will over take emu deck. Wish emulation station was better or that some other method work better at bringing all my emu games together.

@entropicdrift okay, I’m having issues with the rom transfers. The way I have my rom set up is that each game has its older folder. So, RE2 folder has .cue 1 and .cue 2 and the .m3u file. I put that folder in the psx folder and now retrodeck sees it as separate files and the .m3u file won’t launch. Actually , no Psx game launches.

Hey, I'm not the guy to ask. For one, I don't have any PSX games on my deck yet, but also I haven't had to troubleshoot retrodeck yet.

If I were you I'd ask for help on their discord
