Best Snes Emu?

Of course, but any little bit might help. Then again, it is the audio that he wants fixed most so it might make it a little more bearable.

This is somewhat on topic, and somewhat off topic, but here goes.

I've found SNES emulation on the PSP to be somewhat slow on the only game that I play, FF6. And then, it dawned on me, i own FF Anthology for the PS1. Ripped to to a .cue, fired up Popstation, and now the game runs full speed. Takes up more space though, since it's the PS1 remake.

Anyway, the point of this is that, if you have an alternative to a game that's running slowly for you, try it. A lot of SNES classics were either remade on the PS1, or were also available on the Genesis. Genesis emulation right now is faster.

I know that this doesn't help with every game you might experience issues with, but if it takes even 1 or 2 games off your trouble list, then it's worth pursuing.

I'm really not too familiar with the way FF games are numbered (is 6 the same as 3 depending on region?), so can you tell me the exact name of the game you're running? A CRC32 (an 8-character sequence shown in most SNES emulators) would also be helpful. I'll look into the game and see if there's anything I can do.

Hm, actually, in my Snezziboy-specific hack file I've got this one game that isn't in the "official" database, a hack someone else made. If you're using the game titled "Final Fantasy 3 (V1.1) (U)" with a CRC of C0FA0464, then I've got a patch here that could probably help out immensely.

Actually, I remember looking at this specific game before. I might have been the one to create that hack after all, yet I don't think I ever submitted it to the official dat. If this is the game you're talking about, try the following patch:

C0FA0464|Final Fantasy 3 (V1.1) (U)|0|0|0|0|0|0|28236=42DC,B7A3=EAEA,568=42FC,B80A=EAEA

Final Fantasy 6 is indeed Final Fantasy 3 in America. Squaresoft just skipped over 2 NES ff games.

In that case, there's a good chance that the patch I just posted will help improve speed. Medion, when you get the chance, try it out and see if it helps.

Personally guys, I don't like FF3 on Snes, too slow, and I don't like FF6 on PS1, too big.

I do in fact love FF6 Advance for the gba. It's small, and runs full speed on gpSP. Give that one a try Ultimate Warrior.

One prob dude. I use a tranlsation patch that only works for the SNES version... Please don't tell me all the FF games run like crap on SNES...

[SoulReaver911]

That's more or less up to debate. Personally, yes.

What language are you patching to?

[Ultimate warrior]

GRRRRRR!!! I wanted to play FF4-6 wit no probs at all! It's from Japanese to English but I don't see why that would matter becuase the patch won't work for any non .smc file......

Also, I was wondering, why the hell do games like FF6 run slow on these emu's?? I mean, is the SNES impossible to emulate games like that wit full speed on PSP? Also, I hope demo world the legend continues and brutal mario ( both SMW hacks) work well...

EDIT: what is this uo_SNES emulator? Is that any good?

? You do realize that the English version of 2 equals the Japanese version of 4 and same with 3 and 6?

5 was never released in the US, but there are roms that are already patched that are translated very well.

Besides, all three of these can be played on the psp with gpSP, an gba emulator that has the same exact games on it.

Snes games aren't hard to emulate normally, no more so than most games, it's just that they are ports to the psp, and thus can not hold a candle to emulators specifically made for the psp (like gpSP.)

uo_Snes is preferable to some players, but in my opinion it's not much better than the ME version of SNES9XTYL. Both of which have really annoying sound problems. The video emulation of both of these is better than SNES9XTYL Standard, but the sound doesn't compare.
