Nice one Baboon, glad to seee your on the ball as usual with this emu :)
I'll take a look later when I get home from work and see how compatability is this time.

Mike..

Great I've been waiting for an update for weeks ninja turtles now works in the gold version and the analogue works pretty good as well.

[andmaz]

Does this work on 1.00 firmware?

[Zombo]

WooHoo!

I myself have been waiting quite a while for this emu to be updated!

Downloading it right now...A shame I dont have alot of time to test it out right now...cause of skool! :|

I can get tmnt to boot but it hangs after a few seconds. What settings dya have for it??

I changed the sample rate to 33k 4v and overclocked the psp to 333mhz and it works fine. :thumbup:

Can anbody get Rodland to work with sound? The game works but freezes when you actualy start the game unless you disable the sound??

[Panini]

Does anybody know if outrun works on this build?

[hack.fool]

great update indeed ..
can't wait to try it out!!
Thanks for all your hard work TTYman!!

[E.J.]

If dodonpachi works on this one i'm sold!, jaja

[hack.fool]

Snowbros now works great!!
by the way Tumblepop still got no sound..

what games does the gold version can run?

[urherenow]

I see a lot of "Source code will follow." entries on the web page but where exactly are the sources? this latest one says "Source code from now is merged to official Franxis’s GP2X port, at http://www.talfi.net/gp32_franxis/, so wait next release for it."

so it's wait, wait, wait, wait... the mame license REQUIRES the source to be released with binaries. At any rate, I'm very pleased to see this progress! I'm just anxious to see how the code was transformed to work with the PSPSDK. MAME source code is about the only source code that I have any experience with. Perhaps I'll be able to make different builds with different games with the help of this. Mad props to you TTYman!!!:thumbup:

Of the ones I own that I've had the time to try: Konami's masterpiece 'TMNT', and the rest really being Sega system 16b hardware games... Alien Syndrome, Alien Storm, Golden Axe, Shinobi, Tetris, Eswat, Space Harrier (although it seems a tad slow), Super Hangon, Riot City, Altered Beast, Dynamite Dux (although with no sound), Wrestle war.... :thumbup:


I havent bothered with NeoGeo or Capcom games though as NJ's emu's do a 100% perfect job with them. :D

[hack.fool]

thanks Baboon
now it's all clear..gotto try many games this week
(n_n)

we should write a compatibility list for those games..

[Zombo]

Here are all the games that I have gotten for it to show in the Gold menu (I honestly dont know if they actually work) This also isnt the complete list (Outrun,and etc are missing) But of course you can add more!

*eh* I swore I made a post ealier.
Anyways....


So if TMNT is compatible. Is Simpsons arcade also compatible?

Also what about Taito F-3 games. Are any of them working?

[paladinja]

WHOAHhohohoooo, save states... in Black tiger?!? Shiz, maybe now I can FINISH that sumbich.

[argor]

Does anybody know if outrun works on this build?

outrun will not run for 2 reasons ram limation and the fame-c core is to unstable
to be usable it not stable like the cyclone core and the gp2xmame which is used it to run outrun

[Apoklepz]

Thanks for the great news Baboon.

Now I have something to fool around with until I get my God of War Demo or my copy of Dracula X Chronicles.

This release sounds sweet in improvements, too.

Thanks!

[hounddog]

does anybody kno how to get the simpsons runnig if so plz tell me

[B-Z 52]

[Rob79]

When I try the regualr or the gold version I get the error the game could not be started. (80020001) error. I am running on 1.5 do I need to be running a oe version for this to work? I can run mame4all by kech 0.0.3 but no roms work, not sure how all this mame works on the psp, I have MAME on my pc and it just works, any help would be appreciated. Thanks

[unstoppable_96]

You have to KXploit it i think - use SeiPSP Tool and choose the folder you wish (PSP_MAME4ALL_v4.7r3 or gold)
hope it helps

Simpsons is not compatible on this build (well its not on the working games list so I havent bothered trying)... and Tatio F3 games do not run on this either. :(

As it is though this mame4all (well, both of the eboots) is looking pretty fine. :D

Sorry but The Simpsons is on totally different hardware that is not emulated in this port of MAME. It runs off of the Konami X-MEN hardware. Also Taito F-3 games are also not supported in this port. Since this is based off of Franxis's GP2XMAME the rom sets I believe should match that of 0.34b and a couple from 0.35 and 0.36. Also the gamelist.txt has all the supported games for this mame. I heard on the gp2x boards that Franxis is looking into seeing if he can do The Simpsons, but it's not going to be easy adding it to this build. It just seems any game drivers past 0.34 can be a pain to get running in this build of MAME.

Baboon beat me to it. That's what I get for posting at work =P

[drock82]

is x-men arcade working..it was once on the konami emulator for the psp:confused:

[Baboon]

Haha... I'm also at work at the mo - not doing much work! :rofl:

No its not, read geise69's post.

[carpy]

Do I need to do anything special to get the samples to work?

Berzerk runs great but without the sound it's pretty lame.

[avatar81]

Any info about the first double dragon? I still haven't found an emulator able to run it properly.

[hack.fool]

@avatar81:

double dragon works flawless now (*v*)

[urherenow]

for the kxploit comment... just don't do it. Nothing should be kxploited anymore and if you haven't run it yet, run the kxploit patcher on your PSP, so no matter what kernel you use, single eboots will work (you just need to figure out if you need 1.5 or 3.x kernel enabled). And run PSPbrew on all your old stuf to make them Single eboots as well. This gets rid of all need for disabling corrupted icons and such.

For the MAME on my PC comment... roms change between builds of mame. more accurate dumps, better emulation, etc... so using working roms from your PC may not work on the PSP version. You need the correct version of the roms. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you where to find them in this forum ;)

[pibs]

will it ever or is it possible to run San Francisco Rush. It just wont run :(

[Tyr]

will it ever or is it possible to run San Francisco Rush. It just wont run :(

I doubt mame on psp will ever run it since its probably quite a heavy game to emulate , but the n64 version might get supported in Daedalus in the future.

As they say "patience is a virtue" lol... the source code has now been released: http://ttyman.free.fr/?p=13 :thumbup:


@ pibster: As Tyr has posted you aint ever going to see San Franciso Rush working on mame psp... its barely playable on my PC! lol

Ok I am trying to play bubble bobble and have gotten as far as getting the emulator to load up and see the game in the list but it wont load the game,. it could be because i cant figure out how to recreate the rom as is stated in the readme of PSP MAME4ALL v4.7r3 Hires.

It says:

Install directions:

- Copy in /PSP/GAME (firmware 1.5) or /PSP/GAME150 (firmware 1.5 compatibility for 3.xx OE release); DONE


- Recreate zipped roms with included ClrMame compatible .DAT files (v0.34-v0.36 mixed roms); CAN'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND OR DO THIS PART


- Add created zipped roms files in ROMs subfolder and samples in samples subfolder;

I hope someone can help me.

thanks

[repuken2]

check your bubble bubble rom version, it might be wrong.

[demondude777]

I am right there too. I think mine are v.106 or something. How to I up them to be playable?
