When running a game from Retroarch, each game have its own memcard file, this is not the case with PCSX-ReARMed.īasically it will create a symlink from '/opt/retropie/configs/psx/pcsx/memcards/card1.mcd' to '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/psx/GAME.srm' with various check. I have make a program to keep compatibility between Retroarch memcard and PCSX-ReARMed memcard. Note: On multi disk games, each CD have its own save state. Load the game on PCSX-ReARMed, load the save state and save it just after. Copy files in '/opt/retropie/configs/psx/pcsx/sstates' and rename 'Parasite Eve 1.state' to PCSX-ReARMed save state filename (PE-FR-CD1-PEFRCD1.000). Recover RetroArch save state you want to use (Parasite Eve 1.state) from '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/psx'.

Load a game on PCSX-ReARMed and make a save state, close the emulator. If you want to try (filename given for example) : PCSX-ReARMed save state are far lighter than Retroarch one. Take what I am going to say with caution, this can destroy your progress : you can use Retroarch save state on PCSX-ReARMed but reverse not work. Quick note : I am not sure compressed PBP files work with RetroArch. You may not need to do the whole process, I personally stop after convert step and this work fine. You can play multi disk game by converting them in PBP format using PSX2PSP : It look like that there is not fully support m3u when PCSX-ReARMed is running as standalone.
