EDIT: Fixed the link. Thanks for the heads up.

Hi everyone,

Sorry for being late with this release...
Here's a full speed PSX emulator for the Zaurus with sound. Be sure to read the readme.html and changes.txt that are included.

Grab ZPSX v0.10 here:
http://www.friggingames.com/zpsx010.zip

A lot more work will be done with this codebase and I'll continue work on it, I've just been slow lately since I've been getting a group of people working on this project together. Unai from Chankast fame is working on a custom GPU for GP2PSX/ZPSX and AntiPasta is dedicated to working on converting crappy code of mine to beautiful ARM assembly, and maybe even a dynamic recompiler.

Right now just about every game I throw at ZPSX runs, and they average 24 FPS with frameskip set at 0, on my Sharp Zaurus C1000 @ 624MHz.

Be sure you are using SDL 1.2.9 as thats what I Use to test with. And be sure to install BZ2 lib to /usr/lib/ as well.

Let me know how this one works for you...

Thanks,
ZodTTD

Wowie Wow Wow! Huge speedup on my 860! FFVII was running at about 1/3rd realtime, now it's about 75% or so (according to the game clock), but it runs much, much smoother than before! Keep up the great work!

By the way, I hope that dynarec comes along nicely- I busted out my dad's old iPaq (with a 206MHz StrongARM) and put fpsece on it... it was by no means quick, but it was about the same speed as zpsx .06 was on my Zaurus. You rock!

zod t'god!

No way did i expect to hear about a FULL SPEED WITH SOUND zpsx release so soon, especially before any dynarec or asm cpu cores have been implemented. If this is the case I suppose we can realistically expect to see  good psx emulation speeds on the gp2x and non-overclocked Zaurii when that code is working well.

Did you get yourself a USB psx-style pad? The other option would be one of those USB adaptors that allows you to plug in a real psx pad, of course! Has Ulrieka dropped out of this now then? Has anyone tried compiling zpsx for the sharp rom/cacko or openzaurus? Does it work?

Thanks for all your hard work zodttd- can't wait to get pdaxrom running again as this will be the first thing I try.

dabboid:i didn`t understood what you said
good work zottd!!!
i`m starting the dynamic recompiler today.
zottd can you send my your makefile/commands to compile ZPSX or should i use the hacked makefile?

I think a CDROM and JOYSTICK support is a good ideia for zPSX....

Hello guys,

I couldn´t believe how fast you are working on it.

but, on version 0.6 Diablo I works too slow, but it was working.
Now I only get a loading screen and the display is flickering very strong
and on einhander I could not start the Game  

think, next version will fix it  

I love you men  

Bye Denis

Odd, Einhander works for me. I'll double check it in a sec.
To help speed up the tech support process...What compression, if any, is being used for the ISO? Did you rip it using my guide in the readme.html?

If you're using ZNX compression, I suggest re-ripping the game to .Z using the guide.

Not sure why it would work in 0.6 and not this version. If it has to do with the emulator and not human error, it has to do with the timings. I optimized the PSX timings heavily to run on the GP2X. This made compatibility go somewhat down. For the GP2X, it was worth the performance increase to lower the compatibility of a handful of the huge PSX library. I have Einhander, so I'll retest it and make sure it gets working. Diablo might be trickier to get working since I don't own the game.

I'll look into getting ZPSX working on other Zaurus distro's. Good suggestions dan.

0.6 works for me playing daikoukai gaiden but 0.10 hangs where 0.5 did. Having a blast playing the fullscreen version. Thanks

Edit: Found the select key, which is used to save, doesnt work while in the game. Not sure why though..... Would be nice if there is a way to save the state instead......

Hello,
I used an uncompressed .iso file. Now I´m on work,
will try einhander once again, Bubble Bobble 2 runs fine @624 Speed

But Diablo (or C&C?) on my Zaurus would be the best...


Thanks Denis

Hi,

I'd firstly want to thank you for your work ... I tryed once to compile fpcse for zaurus and only that was a real pain so I can imagine you're into a very hard work

I'd also want to tell all c3000 users out there that it works perfectly using my pdaXrom beta on c3000

I've tryed bloody roar 2 (only game I had with me .. will try other @home this weekend) and it works ... very slowly but it works ... btw I've been unable to try with HLE as it don't seems to work (I tryed pressing h, shift-h, capslock before launching then pressing h while selecting game ...) ... is it disabled in latest build ?

SL-C3000 - pdaXrom 1.1.0Beta1
SL-C860 - pdaXrom 1.1.0 RC8 (charging circuitry dead :( )
CF RamStar 512 Mb / Hitachi 4Gb microdrive (thanks to creative's muvo² :p)
SD Sandisk 1Gb / Viking 256 Mb
Linksys WCF13 CF wifi card

Anyone willing to donate for my work, please consider donate to pdaXrom and/or OE/OZ projects instead, I wouldn't have been able to do anything without them ...

zPSX v0.010 / BIOS scph1001.bin / X11 and Terminal modes @ 624Mhz/416MHz

1- R-Type Delta, no MENUs Again!
2- Sonic Wings, works fine about 50% speed and with better sound and efects
3- Rockman X4 dont works, crash on Loading Screen

Hey, thanks Zodttd, but this is so strange some old bugs back on this version...  

But speed, graphics and sound goes nice

Are these mostly PAL games being tested? GP2PSX was having a problem with PAL games earlier, maybe it carried over to ZPSX as well?

I only have NTSC games to test with...
