hi i just have a quick question.. are these psx roms around 200mb?? I seem to have a link (emuparadise.org) but those files are big..

ive never tried gaming but i want to try it just for the sake of it.lol

thanks

you need to play around with the cycle multiplier and frameskip.

for a 900Mhz clocked N900 i used multiplier 3 and frameskip 1/2, for stock (600Mhz) i use multiplier 3 frameskip 2/3. some combinations will work. also, turn OFF frame limit.

also, i'm using scph1001.bin

works really well @ 900Mhz

FFVII running no problem @ around 110fps with full sound

Seious question here.

Have any of you played a game where it was working fine but slow, if so did u manage to fix it up and at what settings? Ive got wwe smackdown going from help from a guy here, the game works fine the menu is full speed but once in the game i can play it dont get me wrong its just slow like the whole game is in slow mode... Ive got it at 10x any ideas here. Thanks

Thanks sierrafoxtrot, that actually worked. Who knew?

Incidentally I got marvel vs capcom going fairly fast (70-80%) on a stock 600mhz n900 using multiplier to 7. Is it worth overclocking or will future iterations of this excellent emu be based on a standard n900 clock speeds?

I dont feel the need to decrease the life of my n900 just for a psx emulator just not going to happen. So no over clock for me.

Me neither, but for faster interface, browser, much smoother Flash games / video, MAME and PSX4ALL, the 800MHZ is appreciated. If you use your device 24 hours a day, it may be an issue, but even with the most aggressive degradation curve, 200 more mhz is not going to be a problem unless keeping your device for years. In that case, 600 mhz is an issue as well

The N900 performs as it should have with 600mhz- fast and responsive

GTA2 seems to be a no go though I might have a bad image, it runs however:

- The cars seem a funny colour (mostly all blue so maybe there are some damaged textures, need to check on laptop)
- Sound is there although the intro FMV either has choppy sound or too fast sound depending on the cycle.
- Menu works fine but race won't start if above cycle 5.

Wipeout 3 Special Edition on the other hand looks damn near perfect! Full frame rate, all the sound although lacking the awesome trance music they used to have but maybe because the audio is CDA like they used to do and PSX4ALL can't play CDA tracks from the mounted image

The scaling is a bit sucky at the moment though

Hogs Of War runs good except for sound.
Kings Feild runs really slow
Diablo also runs slow but almost playable
Harvest Moon and FF8 dont run they freeze on startup

all of theme with 1001 bios

Supercross Circuit update:
N900 overclocked to 900mhz
Scph1001.bin
killall pulsaudio
0 framskip
8 cycle multiplier
frame limit off
nearly constant 100% FPS!!!!
