PSP: SNES9xTYL 0.4 source code stolen and official version released

Okay, i just had a horrible experience with this emulator.

First off, i was playing secret of mana, and i got so far. Now i was doing save states and they were working fine, and then i went into the options and messed around wtih stuff, and it said i could have menu music, and so i turned that on, which i thought was kind of cool. Then i continued playing, and when i tried to do a save state, it would not save correctly.... it would save almost instantly, but not update my save. and then when i tried to load that save back, it would say that it is not a correct snes freeze file.... well then i traced my problem back to that music issue, and turned off the menu music. Worked fine after that.

Ok, so I continue secret of mana, and then i save and start up mario all stars. Well, in mario all stars, I started messing with the graphics, like changing the filters and stuff. I set them back in the end tho, and they were defaulted after i got done messing with them....

However....

today i turn on my emu, and find that whenever i try to boot my secret of mana rom, or my mario all stars rom, they emu will freeze up and say "not a valid rom". Okay, so i reset my psp, try a few more times, and then eventually when i reset my psp, my memory stick could not be read.... AND I HAVE TO REFORMAT IT NOW!!! IT sucks cause i played secret of mana for like 3 - 4 hours total, and now all my work is gone!

Point being, The "glamour" settings which are added into this emu should not be messed with until a newer version comes out.... itll really mess you up in the end.

oh , by the wya i am running it on 2.5 firmware via gta exploit.

Dont do it.

PS: emulator is great by the way, just dont messs with the settings too much.

WOW - That sucks. You had to completely reformat? Has anyone else had this happen to them? Anybody else have any sort of bugs?

I'm using 1.50 ME version and no major bugs found yet.

I just discovered that even MARIO KART & F-ZERO run almost PERFECT now. And I don't mean with AUTO frameskip. I'm talking frameskip set at just 1 or 2 so there is no noticable loss in playability.

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!

the way to fix this: go back to the menu, go to "load new rom", and look at the rom list. you will hear your music pop back in for a split second. then hit X to go back to the game, voila, sound is back. i guess it needs to reinitialize the ME engine or something?

This emulator is great! I have to say my favority part though is the multiplayer support! :) playing super mario with my friends and secret of MANA rocks!! :) There is only one problem though you can't load state in multiplyaer this is a problem because we can't save our games in the same positition wich means our game will be out of sync when we start. Hopefully yoyo will get around this problem eventually.

P.S. 200 Posts !:)

yay

Thank you greatly for this little tip. This will help out a lot.

If possible, can someone please try and see if Super Bomberman works via Multiplayer? That is one of the most fun multiplayer games on the SNES. I don't yet have a 2nd PSP to try out multiplayer.

Also, does anyone know about the possibility of setting up some sort of service similar to XBConnect where you connect the PSP to your PC and then using your PC's broadband internet connection to connect with PSP users all over to set up multiplayer matches with SNES games.

I would love to be a part of the creation of this service if it is possible.

If anyone knows anything about how or if this could be possible, please post.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS EMULATOR!!!

I've been sticking with Y since early teen versions and have stayed with 32 until now. I wan't impressed with tyl v1 so i didnt bother to try this out but, man, do i regret it now. It actually lets me play Secret of Mana 2( Sek De 3)!!! I've never been able to play it before because of the eng patched i installed on the rom wasn't showin up in Y but TYL is perfect!!! Even Starfox is playable even though still pretty slow.

BIGGEST HAPPY MOMENT... PLAYING STREET FIGHTER ALPHA 2 AT 56 FPS!!! Even at frameskip 9 Y couldnt get close to that.

AGAIN, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

PS.. Can someone explain auto framerate for me? I'm familiar with 1-9 since i've used mainly between 1-3 before but what does auto do? Make faster yet not choppy? Should it always be on unless game is choppy or slow?

I'm a bit confuzed now..once I downgraded to 1.5 I was happy because the emulator runs AWESOME and I can now run more homebrew but am a bit bummed out. I'm not one for the BRIGHT green background and cannot find a way to change it to my own custom one, and am scared because I don't want to try everything then brick my psp. I hope the umd loader someone linked earlier works, and if it does then I shall be a more releaved, because I own like at least 2 games that require 2.0. AND I HATE THOSE DAMN CURRUPT FILES IN THE GAME LOADER MENU. I tried to download a couple applications to hide them but none of them worked. I'm sorry for my complaining, any help would be GREATLY appriciated. thx
