Pcsx Rearmed

[ghead2k]

Why does the video sometimes seem way too wide for the Caanoo? Wasn't the resolution of the psx 320x240?

The PSX supports multiple resolutions from 256x240 to whopping 640x512.

RE1: Keeps looping a cutscene when you checked the mansion at the beginning of the game.
RE2: Just stops during a cutscene when you enter the weaponshop and the owner is aiming with a shotgun at you.

Do you use the real BIOS? If so, what versions of the game did you try (PAL/NTSC)?

I tried with and without bios file and its the PAL version.

@ruffnuts: How long/far have you played RE?

Cheers,

Can someone test tempest x3 or mr driller. They both load and play but the graphics flash uncontrollably. I want to make sure it is not my images.

Has anyone been able to get Metal Gear Solid to work? It seems to load the game as I get no error messages but a black screen pops up and nothing ever happens. The file I have is an img file.

Edit: Nevermind, changed the BIOS and now it works. Still sluggish understandably, but a lot faster than other emulators.

@ruffnuts: I suppose that you played as Chris, there you dont have this cutscene. I started as Jill, and was not able to get through the mansion. I tried another image too, but no success.

Well I just tested it as gill and it works flawless ghead2k - frameskip off and 750Mhz if that helps

ruffnutts

So wanted to play this game - but having said that I can carry on playing as chris till I come across a fault
With it a......

[ruffnutts]

[mats158]

Rayman works really nice clocked to 600.

Motor Toon Grand Prix works nice clocked to 720 and FS1

Many thanks to notaz to include Caanoo in his development efforts on PSX ReARMed

 

[ruffnutts]

Soon as TV OUT is available I will start some video`s with my capture card ;-)

I'm also finding that diagonal movement is difficult. I tried out MK4 last night, and found it difficult to do sideways jumps through the air (as you said, up+left, up+right etc...)

Haven't noticed this with other emulators though, so I agree, I think it's the way the emulator deadzones are set up.

Anyone have problems with diagonal movement - is the deadzones ok on the emulator? seems like I cant go up left up right ect very well???

 

[ruffnutts]

Yeah that was the game I had trouble with - I notice in the controls option on the emu there`s a deadzone option that is set to 70 my default,
Maybe mess with that to see what happends

EDIT: I set it to 8 on MK4 and now I can jump forward and backward ect...

 

[stpat]

Didn't realize the deadzones were configurable... awesome! Thanks for the head's up!

[stpat]

You went from 70 to 8?

[ruffnutts]

Yeah then to 24, I need to study deadzones more, what to you recommend?

 

[ruffnutts]

Anyone got a banner for this or title bar even

 

[stpat]

Actually, I don't know much about them... my assumption would be that it's a range from 0-100 and that a value would 70 would mean that the joystick doesn't register until you've exceeded the first 70% of the way between the centre and any direction.... that would definitely explain why we were having trouble with diagonals. The higher the value, the harder it would be to find a position on the diagonal that would exceed 70% in both directions at the same time.

8 seems pretty low, but 24 sounds good.

I would think if it's too low, you might accidentally go on an angle when you don't want to (ie: with a setting of 8, if you slightly pushed it to the left or right while going up or down, you might end up with a diagonal rather than just up or down.)

Of course, this is all dependent on my assumption being correct.

[mrkingoo]

Speaking of controls. Is there a way to bind R2 and L2 buttons to button combs like [II]+L [II]+R?

 

[ruffnutts]

Good question +1

Tony Hawks Pro Skater PAL

Settings
Clock to 750Mhz
Auto frameskip
Disable XA Decoding On

Works very nice - in game there`s sound but no music with these settings
