Note that if the ripped PS1 game is divided into different audio tracks, you should copy them all into the online tool as well, so all the game files are contained in one “cue” file. Just drag-and-drop the game’s img or bin file into the box on the site, and it will generate the “cue” file text for it. If for whatever reason you don’t have the “cue” file accompanying your “bin” file, or if your ripped PS1 game is in another format like “img”, then you’ll need to create a “cue” file for that game and put it into the same folder as the main image file.Ĭreating a CUE file is simple enough, and to make it even simpler you can use this online tool to generate the text for a cue file. This will essentially divide the output files into the BIN file, which stores most of the game data, and the CUE file, which is what Retroarch searches for when you scan for PS1 games. When you rip a PS1 game, you should always make sure that you do it into the BIN or BIN/CUE format.

Some games may work without a BIOS, but for full compatibility we highly recommend one. If you’ve followed up to to this point, your controller is ready to use, and you’ve acquired the PS1 bios file(s) that you’ll need to play your games. Note that the BIOS file names are case-sensitive, so need to be written without caps, and suffixed with ‘.bin’. You can check the default directory that Retroarch scans for BIOS files under “Settings -> Directory -> System/BIOS”. What we can tell you is that the most common bios files are: PS1 bios file corresponding to the global region of the game you want to play (US, Japan and Europe being the most common), placed into the ‘system’ folder of RetroarchĮxpanding slightly on the note of BIOS files, we can’t legally tell you where to download these.
