A BIOS or firmware is like the brain of a computer or electronic device. It helps the device start up and makes sure all its parts work together smoothly. In emulation, having the correct BIOS/firmware is important because it allows the software to pretend to be the real device and work properly.
|
||||
|
||||
That's why some emulators require BIOS and Firmware files to work correctly or at all.
|
||||
|
||||
Generally the bios files should be put in `~/retrodeck/bios` but there could be exceptions to this.

Some cores may need some BIOS files to work or run correctly.

## XEMU (Xbox)
|
||||
|
||||
These files must be placed with the correct name in the given folders:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
~/retrodeck/bios/mcpx_1.0.bin'
|
||||
~/retrodeck/bios/Complex.bin'
|

~/retrodeck/saves/xbox-eeprom.bin'
|
||||
[OPTIONAL] ~/retrodeck/bios/xbox_hdd.qcow2'
|
||||
```
|
||||
The hard disk is optional as RetroDECK already provides a pre-built 8G Xbox HDD image, free of any copyrighted content, and only containing a dummy dashboard.
|
||||
So if you want to the complete experience you have to provide your own.

## MelonDS (Standalone)
|
||||
|
||||
MelonDS needs the following files:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
mcpx_1.0.bin
|
||||
Complex.bin -> Complex_4627v1.03.bin or Complex_4627.bin
|
||||
xbox-eeprom.bin -> eeprom.bin
|
||||
xbox_hdd.qcow2 -> xbox_harddisk-D4920.qcow2
|
||||
~/retrodeck/bios/bios9.bin
|
||||
~/retrodeck/bios/bios7.bin
|
||||
~/retrodeck/bios/firmware.bin
|
||||
```
|
||||
So don't forget to rename them for the RetroDECK standards.
|
||||
|
||||
## PICO-8
|
||||
|
||||
Pico-8 it's not freeware hence it cannot be included with RetroDECK, however it's supported by using these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Download PICO-8 for `Linux 64-bit` from the [official website](https://www.lexaloffle.com/games.php?page=updates) or where you bought it.
|
||||
2. Extract the zipfile somewhere on your desktop
|
||||
3. Copy the content of the extracted pico-8 folder into `~/retrodeck/bios/pico-8/`
|
||||
|
||||
## MelonDS (Standalone), (NDS)
|
||||
|
||||
MelonDS by default needs those files:<br/>
|
||||
- `~/retrodeck/bios/bios9.bin`<br/>
|
||||
- `~/retrodeck/bios/bios7.bin`<br/>
|
||||
- `~/retrodeck/bios/firmware.bin`
|
||||
|
||||
However there is a setting to disable the need of these files by going to: `Tools` -> `Start MelonDS` -> `Yes` -> `Config` -> `Emu settings` -> `DS-mode` and removing the check on `Use external BIOS/firmware files`.
|
||||
Please be advised that this operation may prevent the games from running correctly.
