Pal Users Rejoice - New Dark Alex Firmware is Great for PAL PSX Games

[ENG]

I just want to point out, although D_A has graced us with this glorious firmware, he doesn't actually improve the popstations comatability, sony does that, also any pal - ntsc games are now off centre.

I just want to point out, although D_A has graced us with this glorious firmware, he doesn't actually improve the popstations comatability, sony does that, also any pal - ntsc games are now off centre.

So noted in an earlier post from this thread. Good point about those PAL - NTSC games being off now though.


I would love to see an easy way, without a 3rd party app or through USB, to adjust the order of installed programs. Or is there one already and I am missing something?

My normal method has been to move all my "%" folders to a temp location on my HD and then move them back in reverse order of how I want them to appear. (last copied is fist in the list, this is inclusive of ISO's as well)

hahaha PAL, best joke evar

Yeah, just use NTSC:

Lower resolution
Unstable colors
Inconsistent frame rate 29.97 fps which lead to the 3:2 pulldown formula to adapt 24fps film to almost30fps TV...

And I could continue talking about pitch change in audio.

Best crap ever...

I have noticed in 3.10 OE PS1 emulation is slower than in 3.03 OE. Music skips in certain ps1 games on 3.10 OE and NOT on 3.03 OE with the same ps1 file . Anyone else experience this?

I'm noticing this quite badly as well. It's great that I can finally see the bottom of the screen but at the detriment of slow down.

It would be fantastic to see a PAL or NTSC option in the next update. At least it kept the game mostly up to speed (Apart form the woefully slow Silent Hill).
Even PALadin conversions keep it as a PAL game. *sigh*

I made a PSX Eboot[PAL] and it's like widescreen or something... I don't know why.. maybe it's because I used an old version of POPS .. do I need to make it with the new POPStation from 3.10OE or something?

You won't find popstation included in the rar file for 3.10OE at all. I couldn't find popstation anywhere - then I downloaded 3.03OE and there it was - right in the archive.

SO I guess that Dark Alex hasn't updated POPstation for 3.10OE.

I just want maybe like a built in wmv/avi/mpeg player. IDK, so far, nothing i really don't need is put in there.

Actually, i just thought of something. Why doesn't D_A make it where pops can load iso's and cso's? That would be cool and a whole lot easier than popstation. Also, D_A should make his own browser. Maybe like eboot so it has more cache on it or something.

I agree with the video support but playing iso's for popstation wouldnt be that good because they will be huge and not compressed as well as the eboots
