PSP Genesis v0.1 - New genesis emulator with sound

Nice skins DDRlord! I sense many more to come! ;)

I fixed the fps prob, not sure how though? I set frameskip to auto, set 50hz emulation on, vsync on... and it works ok.... I think it's really rom-rom diffrences.

Like with the autofire toggle on some buttons on some games. Here's a few games with sport the problem:

Alien 3 - Direction buttons
Gunstar Heroes - Directional and "A" doesn't work?
Mortal Kombat II - Directional buttons

I'll go through what I have and post results here, it's about 40% I've found to have the problem, I thought it was just 6 button games but apparently not.

Wouldn't have anything to do with the mode button not being present would it?

I was just playing Ristar, and the music just went...wierd, like crackaling and as if it were reading random bits of the MIDI but the melody was still intact, I went back to the UI and then back into the game, and it was fine.
Just reporting a bug. ^^

EDIT:
I think it's more of a crackaling effect, I have no clue what would cause this though. I was playing Ristar again, and it happened when I was swinging on the poles that make Ristar fly and be invicible. It happened after I did that, and then went away and i tried the pole again and i think it came back, maybe its because of certian sound effects?

Ok, went through my roms and here's my findings (sorry if it's a little hard to follow):

The new interface is fantastic, and the option to choose your own frameskip rate is a welcome one. Still, I wish they'd speed this up! When Genesis games run at full speed on this emulator, it'll be practically perfect.

I think I found the problem with the button-rapid fire thing. It's a bug with the 6 button layout. Turn off that feature and reload the game (you have to reload it), and those games should work.
I guess maybe there was a purpose for that mode button on my 6-button Genesis controller after all. However, I never actually used it (never knew if it actually worked). A bug in the 6-button programming, perhaps?
I don't play any 6-button games, so I don't know if they're affected. do any of them have the rapid-fire problem?

Happy to know that there's other people that like Ristar and Gunstar Heroes ^^

I can't play S3&K too...

Hey guys, sorry if this question has been answered hundreds of times, but oh well, here it goes again. Im running a 1.5 and i cant get the emu to load properly, it just brings up a black screen with some white boxes on it, i read some posts about adding some files or something, (for people running 1.5 psp's) anyways im not excatly sure what that meant, if someone could explain it to me a little better id be very appreciative.

In the .zip there's a file called system.fnt. This needs to go into the psp genesis directory on your psp without the '%'. The xploit tool will not copy this file, you need to add it yourself.

That's your problem ;)

This sound's like your only exporting the EBOOT file, you also need to put the system file along with the 3 bmp files on the mem stick for the menu to work

Shiaoran, Ristar is awesome, I know =).
Anyway, your ROM for S3&K must be corrupt. The great thing about emulation on the PSP, over the PC, is that everyone has the same specs, so there wont be differnet compatability for different users... unless sony ups the specs like it did with the PS2. (I hope not) So, you probably just need to find a different dump of the ROM, as I can get S3&K to work fine. Goodluck
