PSX-P Beta 3 The Playstation Emulator for the PSP - Latest Video

[DPyro]

i don't recognize any of square's games w/ that intro screen

@$n!pr: I'm 99% sure that's not true, all 30+ of my ps1 games run natively at 320x240 on my PC... all north american disks....

Nope, here are the PS1 GPU specs:

Graphics processing unit

This chip is separate to the CPU and handles all the 2D Graphics processing, which includes the transformed 3D polygons.

Features:

* Maximum of 16.7 Million Colors
* Resolutions from 256×224 to 640×480
* Adjustable frame buffer
* Unlimited Colour Lookup Tables
* Maximum of 24 Bit Color Depth
* Maximum of 4000 8×8 pixel sprites with individual scaling and rotation
* Emulation of simultaneous backgrounds (for parallax scrolling)
* Flat or Gouraud shading, and texture mapping

whoops, i was wrong..... hmm, i guess all my games are 320x240, lol....at least it loads the bios... although quite slowly... I was expecting that to be a lot faster.... it's looking slightly more real, although i still have some doubts....

Looks like it still needs a bit more work... it took way too long for the boots to go thru... man it is a great start to something great to be....

I agree. I am definitely against criticizing coders and developers of PSP homebrew unless it is constructive but the boot screens took way to long to load.

This may be the only PS1 EMU in development so I do have to give thanks and appreciation to all involved in trying to bring this to us.

I must point out that on that youtube page after the video ended, it showed similar videos and one was of a SONY REP showing off SONY's PS1 EMU. It looks AWESOME!. You can change the screen size with ease and you just navigate to the GAME/MEMORY STICK area on the PSP's xmb to load up the games. They don't seem to be ISO's but instead EBOOT's.

WOW, I'm actually impressed with SONY on this one. I desperately hope that with DevHook or other means, we can use SONY's PS1 EMU on 1.50 PSP's.

Down was pressed while the bios was booooooooooooooting, any reason for that?

[brainpan]

I just assumed down was pressed so that the screen wouldnt get darker or shut off being that it was a lengthy bit of time for the boot screen to load up.

As if adding that to an app was hard. Especially compared to writing an emulator

More evidence that Sony will be distributing the games themselves and not enabling us to play whatever we want (well that's kinda obvious...)

I hoped that too, but judging from what I said above that could either not happen or co$t us.

In any case...

1) There's no proof Sony was running the game in real-time or if it was a video.

2) There's no proof it was an emulator and they didn't port it or something.

3) Even if it was a real emulator, consider that an emulator can be tweaked to hell to play a specific game, and that could be the case. Also, Sony could have taken the disassembled code from the game (since they have that right) and manually recompiled it to run on the PSP.

That occasion was just to show off. If they had a really good and functional emulator that could play ANY PS1 game at fullspeed, they would at least have shown more games running, and more likely enabling people to test-play it at some games convention.

I'm not saying they don't have an emulator, let alone they never will. But probably it's not done yet (or else they would also have released it already with some FW upgrade or whatever. They are losing money over that one).

It's getting much better. Great thanx to Yoshihiro

I hope the dream of a full Speed/Sound PSX-Emu will come true
