    Default CPS3 emulator can't run street fighter III: 3rd strike rom.

    I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, here.

    I downloaded the cps3 emulator, made a folder for it, and extracted the cps3 rom Street Fighter III 3rd Strike - Fight for the Future (US) [CP3000U0G - CAP-33S0A0] [N.A.] into the same folder.

    Each option for loading a rom says files are missing.

    What am I doing wrong?

    I suggest you just grab the Final Burn Alpha romset I have posted here, it will do you a world of good in the arcade rom headache department.

    Its very easy to set up, arcade roms are typically way more complicated than standard console roms.
    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.

    You are using the FBA emulator I included correct?

    extracted the cps3 rom

    to be honest that actually sounds like the issue

    arcade rom zip files should be kept as zip files and stored in the roms folder using the original zip file name, so the rom zip files should not be renamed

    Other media is different though it is just the rom chip dumps that remain zipped, chd ect remain as chd files and should not be zipped or renamed

    CPS-III games work just fine with MAME. I have all 3 Street Fighter III zip and CHD files from MAME 0.180 romset and they all work with MAME 0.181. Auditing says the ROMs were not properly dumped, but they still work without any apparent issues.
