    Default Retroarch Wii CPS2 problems

    I've been trying to get any rom to load on the FBA CPS2 core of retroarch for Wii and nothing will load. I've tried aliens vs predator, Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Marvel vs. Capcom clash of superheroes, and Marvel Superheroes vs. Street Fighter and none work. I've verified that they are good roms by running them in MameUI so bad roms aren't the issue. When I attempt to load a rom, it just sits indefinitely at a black screen and I have to unplug my console.

    Chances are you are still missing roms, MAME does not just use the roms inside each game but extra ones asides from those

    MAME has the sound chip as a separate rom "qsound" to the games as well as the ZN2 chip "cpzn2" I think it was

    the CPS2 emu may use a different rom set also

    most cps2 roms on fba for wii do not work as their is not enough memory,unlike the original xbox which uses vritual memory to get past this.

    I wasn't aware of the zn2 chip. That might be what I need to get them working. Thank you.

    That's definitely an issue. I'll try retroarch on original xbox. Thanks.
