I live in Europe, UK and it makes sense to play games on the RetroPie console. But every PSX2PSP game is all in the US. RetroArch has a feature to change regions, does that work to change regions? :?

I wouldn't use PSX2PSP games in your situation. Use PSOne classics (PSN versions for PSP) if you really want to, but I would just use PSX dumps with a PSX emulator.
No point emulating a system within another emulated system.
RetroArch is not region locked and neither is the PSP
A PSP plays all regions no matter the region of the PSP hardware
I tried changing the region on RetroArch, it's automatically set to Auto, but when I tried to put it to PAL, the "Sony Computer Entertainment America Presents" logo still said America on it. Plus I doubt its PAL.Quote:

P.S. you can't change the Licence screen by the way even if it just change the framerate
As there is no region protection there is no reason to region patch at all though the PSP is not region locked, Retroarch is not region locked and as stated just play PSX games with a PSX core/emulator, unless you are wanting to use a real PSP then that is a different story but again no region protection so no need to patch anything
If you realy wanted to region patch though you do that before it is converted to an eboot
It is a realy bad idea to patch the video mode though as forcing 50 Hz on a 60 Hz game and vice versa will make a lot of games run out of sync and eventually crash out, some it just breaks them totally making them totally unplayable
To sum it all up
RetroPie has no region protection you can play all region games PAL-E NTSC-U NTSC-J will all play fine
Play PSX games via the PSX cores they will run smoother that way do not run PSX2PSP converts
Do not force PAL display modes, unless you want to break the game
Look, what I'm trying to say here is that sometimes PSX games in different regions can be edited, either due to regulations or that of inappropriate in some countries. For example, UmJammer Lammy, there is a time where Lammy gets mistaken for being apart of another band, that is in the American version, in the European version, Lammy goes to HELL. (no joke, look it up)
See what I mean? PSX games are different (sometimes) in different countries. It's just that all of the PSX2PSP roms are all from USA. Where's the Japan and Europe regions?
That is something totally different and finally the real reason
The programming will never change from NTSC version to the PAL version from any sort of region patching
region patching will only change the boot code or the display mode and that is all, the programming differences between regional releases will not change if you change the boot region or display
like we keep saying just go for the PSX disc images directly instead of PSX2PSP converts or make your own from PSX2PSP converts from PSX disc images

PSX2PSP 1.4 is a basic program to convert them PSX images into PSP eboots it converts them to what you have been complaining are only in NTSC
I hope you are not using PSP emulation if you are you do know that some games have problems running from PSP partly because of the internal PSX emulation of the PSP and partly due to the lack of control options vs an actual PSX, no analog and no L2, L3, R2 or R3, so make sure you use the PSX core emulation
