You will figure out something PSmonkey!!!!!!!!!! Then I'll need a bigger memory stick to put some N64 roms on (right now I have a 256mb)

256mb seems large enough for loads of roms
do you have that many N64 games to fill it?
surley you could fit the emu and one rom on the 32mb stick that comes "free"

cutting down the times it has to read the MS...you could try to add some loading times there...like instead of reading the data every time it needs to,just read from point a to point b and then starts that....this way there wouldnt be any slowdown in the actual game, just some long loading times....i dont even know if that is possible it is just a guess

Im guessing here but you would probably need to find out all the info on the game rom and make some sort of config file which tells the emu which bits to load when and which to remove from ram. that seems like it would work but you need to know exactly which info to load as the game progresses, that would need expert knowldedge of each rom.

i'm bored so heres an analogy--
a evil king expects a beautiful woman outside every window of his castle, offering themselves up to him, and there are hundreds of windows on the castle. if his demands arent met he will destroy the village. however there are only fifty beautiful women in the kingdomat at any one time, so if we know which window the king looks out of, and when, we can move the women to each window in pattern with the kings movements and he will never suspect a thing.
of course if he spots our trickery he will destroy the kingdom..

i dont know ive gone crazy i guess

nice analogy. I am sure that eventually someone will think of something and it will work out perfect.

Yes, I have to have that many N64 roms

And with the 32mb stick, you could fit none of the bigger roms like Paper Mario and Zelda.

the fact that they work, even 1 fps, shows how it is physically possible to use massive n64 games on the PSP. Im sure somewhere out there is a program that will do exactly what we need to make Zelda and other large games to work on PSP.
