PSPSOne Alpha Released (Playstation Emulator for PSP)

[wraggster]

PacManFan has released a new Alpha version of his Playstation Emulator for the PSP, heres what he posted:

"Well everyone,

I've decided to release another ALPHA version of the PSPSOne emulator as a demo so everyone can see how much the speed has progressed.

No BIOS is required for this demo, I'm using the internal HLE Bios built into the emulator. This is the same Paradox demo I released last year, except this runs much faster.

Some techinical info:

-This version is running with the interpreter CPU core, not the recompiler.
-This is running with full 256x256 textures (I can get better speed with 64x64 or 128x128 textures)
-No sound
-Partial debug loggin enabled
-partially optimized build

I'll add a fps counter to all future versions so you can see speeds for yourself. Remember that this Paradox demo was designed to test the very limits of the Playstation."

Wow, this is cool stuff. Small file size but there is a lot going on when running the EMU. No sound but speed is pretty fast. This does indeed work with Firmware 2.0 PSP's with EBOOT Loader 0.9. This does not appear to be able to play any PSOne iso's or roms at this point. Has anyone gotten anything else to run or is this just a "teaser"???

Seems almost too good to be true but I'm looking forward to the day when I can play FF7 and FF Tactics on a 2.0 PSP. I thought for sure this EMU would only work for 1.5 but I hope all future releases also work with the EBOOT Loader.

Anyone know how to exit? I guess I'll just force the PSP to shut down.

PacManFan, you are awesome. You will definitely be getting donations and support.

this is the kind of homebrew ive been waiting for

Can anyone confirm which games they've gotten to work and how well/ badly they've worked?
Cheers guys.
And, PacManFan, you're the newest coolest dude in town :-)

I'd like to know when that 900 pound guerrilla known as Final Fantasy 7 will be working on it. It sounds like this release is more of a demo then a functional emulator. Has anyone gotten any games to work on it? It appears that it would need the PSX BIOS ROM in order to load a game, but it doesn't look for that file at this time.
