Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 
For anyone who wants the r10 release now, I compiled it myself.

Just download the zipfile in the link, decompress it, you'll find a file named "pcsx".

On the device, do the following:

1. Move /opt/maemo/usr/games/pcsx to /opt/maemo/usr/games/pcsx-old
2. Copy the just downloaded pcsx to /opt/maemo/usr/games/pcsx

Step 1 is optional, but recommended so that you can undo the procedure by replacing pcsx again with pcsx-old

This comes with the usual warning about no warranty etc etc, but it works for me and should be a nice workaround until bonapart finds the time to roll out a proper update.

EDIT: This does not include the maemo specific fixes as noted by bonapart: "(different saves, fullscreen switch,save+- keys, something else i can't remember)". This may or may not mean your savestates will get screwed up. I don't use savestates so I can't test this. Please comment if you do use them and have tried this version.

Here's the link: http://www.mediafire.com/?7k8vbrh0dz61xlq

PS Bonapart: It compiles without problems, maybe it's an idea to roll out an update of pcsx-rearmed first and update the ui afterwards?

ErwinJunge, yeap, it compiles, it doesn't work with bios(just doesn't show any window)
or it's my bios problem ?

ps. step 3: chmod +x /opt/maemo/usr/games/pcsx
p.p.s you just compiled version from Notaz repos or insert latest maemo build fixes too(different saves, fullscreen switch,save+- keys, something else i can't remember)?

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 
Good catch on step 3 there :)

I didn't try with bios, since notaz recommends not using a bios. The games I tried (the Crash Bandicoot series) worked fine without a bios.

I just compiled notaz's code, didn't try to include all your fixes since those are hard to identify. I tried diffing your latest release with notaz r8, but the resulting diff was a complicated mess. Integrating a new upstream release is easier if you follow debian packaging guidelines (orig.tar.gz + diff.gz). See http://wiki.debian.org/IntroDebianPackaging for more info. That would enable the use of the "uupdate" command to simply switch out the upstream source for the new upstream source.

I acknowledge that this is not a proper upgrade, but for people not interested in the extra features you provide it's a reasonable temporary fix. I probably should have mentioned this in my original post though, so thanks for the clarification.

I still think it would be a good idea to release your coming upgrade in 2 parts: upgrade the core first, upgrade the ui afterwards.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 
yeap, i can release version tomorrow ( main throuble for this was bios...)
@ErwinJunge: can you link me to place where Notaz say about bios? guess hi just broke something and use apple-way( we can't do it easy, so users must believe that it's bad\not needed\etc)

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 
It's in the README file in the root of the pcsxrearmed source (and has been there since the first git commit on 2010-11-16).

"PCSX-Reloaded has a very capable Internal HLE BIOS that can run many games without problems. It is recommended that you use it. However, if you own a real PlayStation, you may be able to use your own BIOS image. PCSX-Reloaded will find it in ~/.pcsx/bios/ or /usr/share/psemu/bios/ if you place it there. This can improve compatibility, especially with certain games and with the use of memory cards."

Thanks, Bonapart. Can't wait to try it!

Edit: This seems faster but has a small problem. It does not shut down emulation when you press backspace. Keeps running on background.
