PSPMaster v006b (Master System and Game Gear Emu for PSP)

[wraggster]

Some sites claim to be 24/7 but theres only one wraggster (nutty english person who posts news round the clock), heres another release before the rest get around to posting ;)

Trops (http://pspmaster.krnl.net/) has updated his Sega Master System / Game Gear emulator made for the Sony Play Station Portable system.


The emulator uses the old Marat Z80 emulator by Marat Fayzullin. VDP source is based on SMS Plus by Charles Mac Donald. All the source is heavylly optimized for the PSP system.

PSPMaster is running at full speed without frame skiping when the YM2413 sound chip emulation is disabled. Please do not change default options if you don't know what you are doing.

To play PSPMaster you will need a PSP with the firmware 1.5 installed. To install, just download and decompress the file "pspmaster.zip" to the root of your PSP memory stick.

[B]Changing PSPMaster language:

PSPMaster read menu strings from a script file. These files are in languages directory. To create a new language just translate the strings in the file "english.c" using a simple text editor like Windows Notepad.

Changing the default theme:

You can change the default emulator font by changing the script file "theme.c" in theme directory. The background image displayed in menus is in the file "bg.bin". You can create your own background image by using the background generator.
The background generator convert a windows bitmap file into a PSPMaster background file.

Heres whats new:

v0.0.6b:
- YM2413 speed optimizations.
- YM2413 bug fixed.

- Use hardware aceleration to draw menu images.
- 32 bits color menu.

addresses).

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how to add cheats? I assume the file goes in the cheats folder but I couldn't see any information in readme file. Does this use Action Replay codes or something else? How does the file need to be named.

Thanks for your help ( and also to the creator of this emulator )

Cheers!

Does it support 16:9 screen

The PSP has a 16:9 screen, and this emulator works on it, so, yeah it supports a 16:9 screen. :)

If you mean, does it alter the SMS game's screen display from it's original aspect ratio, warping the image making everything short and fat, then no it doesn't do that.

It does have a stretch mode that fits 80% of the PSP's 16x9 screen. Though.

And this is the ONLY SMS emulator that runs ALL the SMS roms available, and works on ALL PSP firmwares.

LOL. i know the PSP has a 16:9 screen. And as far as the only emulator i suggest you try E(emulator) its as good and supports the wide screen use of the psp.

Nearly missed this, to much excitement with the gba emulator :)

What's better, this or the new MMSPlus?

[Pumped'Up]

I'd give e[mulator] as the best all-in-one. It does all the emulators (SMS, GG, PCe, NES, etc) outstandingly...I just hope it will support SNES and Genesis one day so there'll be less "bulk" in the homebrew folder! ;)
