flycast Pier Solar closes flycast after bios

Pier solar closes the flycast after the bios, using PierSolar.CDI right after the bios presentation, the flycast closes sending it to the android menu, both in the stand alone flycast, and with the core present in the retroarch.

This is a known issue with this game and could be due to a copy-protection measure.

The interesting thing is that I tested it with Pier Solar in GDI format, with separate audios and it worked, it only took 10 minutes to get out of the SEGA bios screen.

Is this the Redump version? I tried it and it crashes at boot like the CDI one.

Does it even work on other emulators? would be interested to know.

@flyinghead @MojoJojoDojo The version I used was this one, it works in flycast, both stand alone and core retroarch, but in the SEGA logo it takes about 10 minutes to load, giving the impression that it's stuck, tip I discovered, when entering game play for the first time instead, use the save state, then when the game loads and the SEGA screen appears ua load state.

@spielvan Would you know if this still works for you? I just tested it and it doesn't even boot, both standalone and core - not even Demul - goes straight to the BIOS.

It worked, had to enable HLE BIOS.
