Hello @azvarel
emulator : default ?
Core : default ?you said
Ginga_Fukei_Densetsu_-Sapphire(NTSC-J)_[HCD5080].iso renamed Saphire.iso
FILE "Sapphire.iso" BINARY
Not same name, missing p : Sapphire.iso
Do you have delete your gamelist.xml ?
Do you use mode gamelist_only ? If yes, disabled.Do you have fresh install on new microsd ?
directly with recalbox 4.1 unstable image ? -
@acris typing error, while doing the topic
see the "loading" for 1/2 a second and then goes back to ES
emulator: defaul
core: defaultI'm suspecting a problem with the core or the pcenginecd emulator folder.
Because it does not make sense, I used your bios, your iso and it still did not work.
Other games that use supercard like Akumajou Dracula - Chi no Rondo, it works, Sylphia also works, but this blessed Sapphire does not work -
Continue...
Do you have delete your gamelist.xml ?
yes
Do you use mode gamelist_only ? If yes, disabled.
disable
Do you have fresh install on new microsd ?
Last install was from 4.0 beta 5, upgraded to 4.0.1 and then to unstable 4.1
directly with recalbox 4.1 unstable image ?
I have not tried with direct image
-
Try with another microsd and download img recalbox
https://archive.recalbox.com/updates/v1.0/unstable/
And transfert only this game and bios. -
@acris I tried with another microsd the img, copied its iso and its bios and it did not work.
-
I discard BIOS problem because I used several BIOS, such as version 3.0
A hack version of 3.0 that already opens the game directly, without the need to appear the bios screen, and version 4.1 derp also made by a hack that includes support for extended memory and supports Medanfen, all games work except Ginga Fukei Densetsu - Sapphire (NTSC-J), that I can see the "loading" for 1/2 second and then back to ES.A great friend who lives in Japan was able to generate a pro clonecd image and sent me Super Daisenryaku (NTSC-J) and when testing here on the recalbox it worked, then we verified that it is a .iso file problem
In search of other alternatives with Sapphire.

World Heroes II [HCD4063]I'm not sleeping, downloading iso in every possible way, my last attempt was to convert to OGG, WAVE files and edit the .cue and without success.
I do not even know what else to do.
The strangest thing is that in the log it appears normal, we loaded the ARCADE CARD
RetroArch [libretro INFO] :: MDFN_MakeFName: /recalbox/share/bios/syscard3.pce RetroArch [libretro INFO] :: Arcade Card Emulation: Enabled

I Have no problem with all theses games, it's work on my raspberry pi 3
Please post your support file : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Recalbox-support-(EN)

It will not be necessary.
after a user in the forum of the libretro said that my isos were corrupted, which was not true, I decided to redo the cue files, that for some reason the cue files were with some synchronization problem, then I followed the cue available in www.necstasy.net and with the isobuster, I managed to let it work.
Thank you again for your help and for your willingness.
Cheers,
Azvarel -
@azvarel Pls could you share the cue with me? I'm having same issue.... THX
-
Any, insight on this? I have new cue file and new iso and it's still failing... is it needed any special bios?
THX!!!
-
@azvarel THX SO MUCH. The issue was because of the rewind setting.... AFter disabling it, it worked. I can't believe it.
