    Default Problem With OpenEmu

    Hello everyone,
    I'm Kinda new with emulation and i recently joined Emuparadise to play some games on my Mac. ( Version 10.11)
    So I downloaded Openemu and also the Rom starter pack. They are quite a few game who are actually working (Except GBA games).
    My problem is when i download on your website games for Nintendo DS i can't add them to OpenEmo ( it's rare) or they go on "Arcade" and i can't launch them. So I Ask you how can i solve my problem ? Also i don't understand what are the "Bios" needed for exemple for GBA.
    Thank to help me and sorry if there is already a post for this

    Retroarch is a far better emu solution (both Retroarch and OpenEmu are not emulators just frontends for the Libretro core system, Retroarch is the only Official one though).

    A bios is not needed for GBA but very few games need it in order to function properly, I forgot which one exactly but I was told by devs.
    THE BEST METHOD to run PSX games (and everything else for that matter) is via Retroarch - http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/
    If you have any questions on how to set it up on Windows please feel free to ask, its very easy.

    I believe so but I am a windows/Linux Mint user.

    I have very few friends that are familiar with Retroarch on mac.

    Here is what you want, you are on 64 bit right? - http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/apple/osx/x86_64/

    Scroll all the way to the bottom and grab the latest build, I am not sure as to the difference of the 2 versions but I can ask the devs for a little explanation.

    I use Desmume sometimes in Retroarch and I love it, I mainly use my real DS though.

    You might want to go through the wiki on github, it covers most of these items.
