Zpsx: High Performance Psx Emulator For The Zaurus

Great!  It seems to be much faster and stabler, so far.

I'm still having trouble getting UFO- Enemy Unknown to run properly.
With the latest release, the opening video sequence runs fine,
but when it reaches the game menu, stops rendering to the display.
(it appears the emulation is still running, as it picks up keystrokes
 and makes the appropriate sound effects)

With *both* 'Null GPU' and 'Display Video Memory' enabled,
there's some sort of display, but its completely garbled, otherwise zero.

I've noticed that ePSXe (on a PC) needs a "Soft GPU" like P.E.Op.S. for this title.
The standard accelerated GPUs (e.g Pete's) seem to die at about the same point
as Zpsx.

testing under  pdaXii13, akita

Any idea what might be going on?

I'm also interesting to get this on my SL-C3100 pdaXii13 v5.4.7 but I'm not the linux specialist!

Would it be possible that anyone of you create a ipk file? :-)

This would be greate for all who also want to use this greate Zpsx but are in the same situation as me!


Thanks

It's not strictly necessary - just extract into any directory, follow the instructions in the readme file to add a BIOS file and game iso (which an IPK cannot do for you anyway) and start it up.

A new release will be coming out within the coming day or so. I still need to bind the L2/R2 keyconfig. I also need to double check another memory card fix. Once thats ready, more performance will be on its way, as well as a lot more compatibility.

it's quite simple really. just go to the folder where you extracted psx4zaurus and type "./psx4zaurus"
without the quotes.

Great! With this version and no o/c I've already got nearly the same speed as the old version with o/c! And you're saying I'll get even more performance! Wow!

woohoo---! Thanks for the work.
I know its probably not a priority now, but I hope there will be a cacko/sharp version some day; maybe when development phase is over.

Best regards,

Capn_Fish: Actually the newest builds are at:
http://zodttd.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/...urus_071907.zip

But I really would appreciate people registering. It helps me have a central place to resolve bugs, handle video submissions, and post news.

If anyone is having issues registering, or just wants it done by hand, let me know.

A new build of psx4zaurus is out, build 071907. It's much improved, and memory cards are working now. I included two new memory card (*.mcr) files that must be used from now on.

Of course a new build comes out right before I head off on vacation! I'll try it when I get back. Keep up the good work!

Two other things:

-Is there a changelog? That might be nice to have.
-You may want to update the subject of this thread to reflect the latest release.

Once again, great work, and I'll try it ASAP!

EDIT: I can't get to the new page. It gives me an error saying "page not found."
