Hey, can you give us an update or something?

Thanks.

zodttd im still searching for sourcecode for E}I{'s plugin

didnt find find it yet tough

but segusSoftrenderer might be good to look at the code
segu seems to want to release his work

http://segu.psxemu.com/SourceLib.html

drop him a mail segu@psxemu.com

seems like E}|{ use alot of x86 asm in his gpu (are x86 asm and arm9 similar ?)

why not try mailing E}|{

How do I turn off the sound in gp2psx 0.36?

Looks really good, thanks!

[edit: I forgot to extract the readme, it's in there, apologies!]

Unfortunately, the two are usually kinda hard to port between, and always have been. Not that some don't tackle it, but it's not straightforward, by any means. Roughly to the extent that if anything has x86 ASM anywhere other than routines that are easy to re-write from scratch, they aren't going to be ported.

Conceivably, someone else might convert them to C or another high level language, at which point their portability may be re-assessed, but bear in mind, when using C, you lose some of the blazing speed that ASM can often provide...

someone says they thinnk frameskip was doing something and i must agree it seems to sort of speed things up sometimes.

Has anyone been making any videos of some of the games they have tryed ? i have i will put some on youtube and put the link here

final fantasy 8 but my camera went a bit pants

 

[D.C.]

Yeah, the camera was definitely a bit jerky, but it still looked pretty good!

I thought this one was rather good coz you can even keep sound on ---->JUMPING FLASH

 

[Drak]

Nice Videos.. I wonder when a new version will come out im all giddy

 

[Tobriand]

Haven't tried this since the first couple of versions (which didn't work for me due to dodgy rips to get games onto a 256Mb card) - it is looking rather sexy, if those vids are the current state of it. Not playable, of course, but you can see it almost so being given a lot of work

Regarding people who use the HDD and having issues with SD cards as far as speed. Are you guys using cheaper/slower SD cards? I have the A-DATA 4GB card 150x and I dont see how the hdd running off the usb port could offer any more improvement over a 150x card.

this is a bit of FF7 intro HERE!. i kept the sound on again coz i thought it was still good with the sound. This emulator is amazing ! :lol:

Hello everyone!
I'm still around, I've just been very busy. I meant to get a status update on things awhile back but there were the "trojan issues" with the forums so I decided to wait it out.

So, a status update for GP2PSX...Unai has been doing a great job developing for GP2PSX and might be able to bring some new developers onboard. From what he's told me it seems the GPU is not the main bottleneck at this point, it's the R3000A CPU emulation. So our main goal should be to get a dynamic recompiler working. There's already a recompiler layout in place, just not for ARM. I'm going to see what I can do for the recompiler tonight. It seems pretty straight-forward.

The hope is that the recompiler will speed things up enough to give the GPU some room to "breathe".

I had been working on GP2PSX whenever I had the chance, but my work didn't really help the emulator progress, so Unai and I decided to revert back a version and try again.

So for now, I'm focusing on the dynamic recompiler. Something I should of done awhile ago. ;P

Will keep everyone updated...sorry for the delay.

 

[Crazy Goat]

Sounds most excellent.


Thank you for working on this project... it is very facinating to see the progress of the emulator, and see it taking shape.


You're doing great, and keep up the good work!
