Options :
- XA Decoding - It's a sound filter used to decode PS audio (XA) multiplexed into WAV/AVI files. When disabled will speed up movies and emulation itself.

- Sio Irq - Enable this only when pads or memcards doesn't works,but usually breaks compatibility with them.

- Spu Irq - May help your game to work, but usually doesn't helps.

- CD Audio - If checked, will disable CD audio.

- Rootcounter Hacks 1 & 2 - Fixes for games such as Parasite Eve 2 (1), Vandal Hearts (1) and InuYasha Sengoku Battle(2).

- HWA Gpu - Enables Hardware gpu rendering. Enable it when you want to use psx4m-gles. Note that this option is not yet implemented in Pcsx-ReARMed

- FSSA - Full-Screen Anti-Aliasing, will give you smoother graphics, but reduced speed and reduced compatible.

- Threaded Sound - Can give a better audio output but will cause slowdowns.

- Frameskip - The name says it all. Skips frames and makes some games looks smoother. Note that high frameskip numbers may give the contrary of expected results.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators

like your purpose before.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

"error opening file: /home/user/-runcd
somethings goes wrong, maybe you forgot -cdfile ?"

That's the error I get when trying to use pcsx-r

No error when trying to use gles version, it just doesn't start.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Reffyyyy: i hope it's fixed in latest psx4m-gui 0.4-6.3

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Ok, gles version fixed by restarting and then reinstalling newest version. Pcsx-r version still not working though.

Thanks for all your work.

Also, I think that psx4m-gles process gets stuck at 100% after closing application. (launched from xterm as user)

Now it won't launch due to segmentation fault.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

so all i have to do is
apt-get upgrade ?

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Reffyyyy: rm /home/user/.config/Team16/psx4m-gui.conf

AgogData: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
also you should reassign all keys

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

thanx, now i will try all the games didn't work before :)

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

first of all we're back to the weird red T logo :D
2nd : tried looney tunes racing again (first old try http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=2383)
its still the same freezes at the loading screen but now the loading screen is black, and there is something wrong with the texture..its darker and there is thin white lines everywhere.
thats my review for now, gonna try more games and report back

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Reffyyyy: tnx, to next fix ;-)
AgogData: oh sorry, i forget about icon. which core you had used ?

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Question. I just went apt-get install psx4m-gui now just copied my backup scph1001 over to MyDocs, no i just load the game from the gui right? How come you are all in terminal running stuff? Sorry if i sound ******ed its 3am in OZ lol

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

2 things. it reports problems with permissons in the keys file when i try to save controles, also in configure controles window, theres two R2 buttons :)

how do i fix the permissions? so i can save the keys file?

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

mthmob: i know about R2 =) read first post
lucas777: i didn't understand =(

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

the three of them, all the same result

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

lucas777: We're using the terminal to solve the errors. The default "psx4m" core should work perfectly.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

What i am trying to say is how to i play games on this do i have to

A. Run them in terminal
or
B. Run them through gui

Cheers mate

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

how do i run each core them from terminal? do i use a launch command on psx4m-gui?

got tony hawks 1 to work using psx4m and psx4m-gles with out problems :) great speed on gles version. but nothing happens when pressing start using the pcsx-r core, cpu dosent move at all.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

mthmob:

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

got segmentation fault when running it on terminal.
could it be problem cause I just close it without keyboard shortcut . I just close it by minimized it and press cross button.
but older psx4m could run it even I force close.

so could be an update to fix segmentation fault.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

cloud596: which core(or gui) ? with all games or with just one?

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

rm /home/user/.config/Team16/psx4m-gui.conf

fixed segmentation fault for me.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

cool, Tony Hawks 1 runs on pcsx core through terminal. And theres no texture errors, like there is on both psx4m and psx4m-gles.

I thought pcsx also could use the gles plugin? :) only software rendering when i ran it with ./pcsx -cdfile /xxxxx/..

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

mthmob: pcsx-rearmed have working gles gpu plugin, but on maemo it doesn't work ( i'll try to use this feature it nearest futute, cuz thps is one of my loved games)

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

ahh ok :) well if you should succed, it looks like pcsx could become the more powerfull core. Amazing work mate :) will test out some games the next few days.

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

very thanks bonapart

my experience with new psx4m 0.45-4 with new psx4m-gui :

tekken 3

psx4m run well not full speed but run well and it freezes any times.
psx4m-gles are not running now
pcsx it is running well but more slow that psx4m

better option psx4m core in tekken 3 game

my n900 cpu 950mhz

cycle 3 frameskip 8 i think that it is the best options

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

i really like your work bonapart!

But, i think that games really need to run @20/25+fps WITHOUT the overclock.
Anyway, emu are still in development, so i just have to wait a bit *-*

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Games do run +25fps without overclock. I've overclocked to 850mhz and BoF3 runs fullspeed

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Good work ! There are lot of good 2d games that should be easy to run like worms world party, worms armageddon, rayman 1. Worms has weird bug, all worms backgrounds are black :L

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

ive noticed an update in the repositories where you can select which core you use. What settings would i need to get rayman to work?

cheers:)

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

OK then, someone should put the "min CPU freq for an acceptable framerate" in the overclock menu (in the compatiblity list page) because currently 99% of them are set @900Mhz

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

hello bonapart

psxm-gles core plugin work with rayman 2

and when you try to start any game with this core and game do not start .you must be to close a pid in n900 writting top in xterminal and close process with much cpu

rayman 2 run well with psx4m and psx4 -gles but slow with pcsx

bye

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

if you use psx4m-gles and press ctrl+backspace and close process by pushing X it also doesn't close and will eat cpu and energy

[fremantle]: pcsxrearmed 0.4.0.1 - update to fix bug with using nosound option
[fremantle]: psx4m-gui 0.4-6.4 (not recommend) - new design, no bios selection\no rom directory selection, but more intuitive to configure each core ;-)

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

am i the only person that gets really slow speeds on any of these (and always have) but psx4all runs most games full speed for me at 900mhz, and i mean the speed difference is like night and day. tried loads of games on both with all settings and nothing can beat psx4all

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Disappeared in the new update shortcut

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

yeh above is true, previous update game speed was sooo slow - or was it just me

Re: [Announce] Sony Playstation 1 Emulators
 

Just updated to the latest version of psx4m and I cannot see psx4m-gui in my application list anymore. The different PSX emulators are still working from the terminal though.
