Help! Whats the best genesis Emu for 2.6 ?

**pspcross** · May 27th, 2006, 16:20

yeah previous guy is correct but it is version 0.7 and 1.3 not 1.7.

also a point i have noticed when transfering files in usb
mode.

when the files are copied the light flashes on the psp and the bar on the screen moves left and right.

what i noticed was that after the initial flashing i would normally exit and see if the files copied.

don't do this !!! there will be two sequences of flashing and only after the second set will the files have been
copied over properly.

i was having loads of problems installing emus before but now if i do this i seem to have no problems.

i now have bock with emenu and have running
dgen 1.3, snes 9xtyl 0.4.2, spider solitaire, file assistant 1.2 and mamepsp beta.

if anyone needs any pointers other than this tip then let me know and i will try to help.

this may already be common knowledge but if not then could be a partial cause of folks problems with running some homebrew.

i only found this out by accident myself.

by the way i am running 2.5.

cheers

i have dgen 1.30 and i have a 2.60 psp but it still doesnt work! everytime i load it it crashes automatically help me!

dont press r once it's loaded. I had that problem and everytime i pressed r once dgen had started it crashed. Only press r once you have loaded a game.

Also use the .smd files or .bin files. Occasionally zip files can be the problem

How to run DGens 1.3 on 2.01+ Firmware
Right.... something i kinda managed to do by accident, but its working ok now so i thought i'd stick this up...

(only tested on 2.5 firmware)

1) (if you havent already) Download and install Fanjita's eLoader

2) Create a Folder on the memstick /PSP/GAME/DGEN0.7/ and copy the 0.7 version of dgen into it.

3) Copy the folders from the dgen1.3 zip into /PSP/GAME/
put your roms (still zipped) anywhere you like

4) Boot GTA and run the eLoader, both versions should be available

5) Run 0.7, there should be nothing to do here, so quit back to the eLoader with L-R-Start

6) Run 1.3, load your roms and start playing!

--- some (minor) problems ---

The "input" page on 1.3 tends to freeze up and crash the PSP sometimes... avoid using it. In order to safely change your controller configs (for example, enabling the analogue stick) do the neccessary config updates on 0.7 and then copy the .CFG file from its folder into the 1.3 folder.

If the game running on 1.3 refuses to go back to the menu (L) use the L-R-Start method to go back to the eLoader and load 1.3 again.

have fun!! I'm *loving* sensible soccer!

I'm having the same problem as the other guy attempting to run 1.3 on 2.6 . It doesn't even load the emulator properly, just shows the little text which ends with (based on work by saotome) or something like that. Then it crashes. Screen turns black, like it was going into sleep mode, then it turns itself off entirely. Is there any way to get 1.3 to run on 2.6? (I've tried the method listed above, and it doesn't work.

VER 1.30 will not work for me. I'm not asking for help I just letting you guys know. I'm using 2.6 GTA. DEGEN Verson .70 does wok and it woks fine very fast and it looks very good. The only thing that sucks is that I can't save any games because the option does not there. I have no clu why it won't work but any way neo,nesterJ,snes9x emulators all work fine for me.
DEATH is only one trigger pull away...

i have copied my working dgen folder from my psp.

called (pspcrossDgen1.3.zip) unzip it then

just copy this as it is into the game folder. you will also have to add some roms. ( must be .smd or .bin files). in the dgen1.3 folder too.

also make sure that when you transfer the files they are complete. what i mean is the memory led on the LHS of the psp next to analog stick will flash.

at first it flashes but i also flashes after a few seconds it seems when the files are complete.

make sure the second flash has occured therefore all the files are copied.

i am using bock 097 and gta on firmware 2.5.

let me know how you get on.

also in reply to the last post i tried my 0.7 and i cannot save either. also when i played phanstasy star 2 it would not go into building but using the same rom on 1.3 it works fine and saves.

try using my attached folder and see if it works for you.

let me know

good luck
