Pcsxbox Current Discussion
« on: August 28, 2004, 11:20:00 AM »

This is the main discussion thread for the most recent version of PCSXBox.

Use this thread to do any of the following:

Ask a question about PCSXBox
Report a bug about PCSXBox
Submit a feature request for PCSXBox

Do not use this thread to post about projects other than PCSXBox.
Do not post questions/bug reports/feature requests without first reading the FAQs for PCSXBox.
Do not ask where these projects can be downloaded.

Rule violators will get one warning. After that, you will be temporarily or permanently banned depending on the situation.  I'm sorry if that sounds harsh, but it has taken me a cumulatively long time to write the FAQs for these projects.  If you cannot do me the courtesy of taking the time to read them, then I do not want you posting here.

This thread will be pruned/cleaned periodically.  If you had a question in this thread and it is now gone, then it was either in violation of the rules or your answer can now be found in the FAQs section.

PCSXBox - PSX Emulator for XBox v12

http://xport.xbox-scene.com/
http://home.t-online...me/PeteBernert/
http://www.pcsx.net

what's new:

- Improved speed 5-10% on average

- Most recent version of standard GUI (lots of updates since last version)

- Fixed a bug with loading save states

- Fixed problem where it was impossible to return to main menu

- Changing discs now works (tested with Chrono Cross)

- Upload/Download configurations to/from xport.xbox-scene.com via GUI

- Implemented FF9 movie fix - select the option from the CPU fixes menu

- Diablo works now (?) see notes

- Fixed default ROM path not being set at startup

- Support for simultaneous shared memory cards and game-specific memory cards.
  To select a game-specific memory card, change the Memory Card number to 10
  via the Game Configuration menus.
 
- Memory card settings saved per game

- Merged in PEOPS SPU v1.9
  * speed optimized ADSR mixing

- Merged in PEOPS GPU v1.16
  * Dark Forces fix - set it on the Graphics Fixes Menu
  * Skullmonkeys y-coordinate fix


==============================
Upload/Download Configurations
==============================

This is a new GUI feature that allows you to share your configuration files with
the rest of the world.  

At the time of this version, there are only a few configuration files available
on the website.  Once you have a game tweaked and working well, please take a few
moments to upload the configuration.  This is as simple as selecting the "Upload"
option on the Game Configuration menu.  Downloading a configuration can be
accomplished in very much the same manner by selecting the "Download" option.


============
Diablo Works
============

This is rather strange.  I remember trying Diablo (US version) a long time ago and
noting that things seemed like they would be OK except that the controls did not
work.  Later, someone else confirmed this on the PCSXBox compatibility list.  However,
now it works in BIOS mode.  I cannot recall what version was the last time I tested
it or if anything changed or perhaps I tried BIOS mode when there was no actual
BIOS file and it defaulted to HLE mode.  (This would be before I put in the check
that informs the user if the BIOS is not actually present.)

Compatibility has most likely not changed, but I thought this was worth mentioning.


===========
Save States
===========

I've noticed that save states work seemingly randomly, but if you are
persistent in loading them, they will eventually work.  There may be certain
games where save states simply do not ever work, but I strongly suggest that
you try loading them over and over several different ways (e.g. via Autoload
most recent savestate, via the on-screen menus, and via the button combo in-game).
Chances are they will work eventually.  This has always been the case - nothing
has changed with save states in this release.  I just thought it was noteworthy.


============
Memory Cards
============

In addition to the 10 shared memory cards, there is now an option to use a
game-specific memory card.  This is a memory card that is unique to the game
you are playing.  You can have 2 of them per game (slot 1 and slot 2).

To enable the feature, change the Memory Card number to 10 in the Game
Configuration menus.

C'mon man, you know what he meant.  Bugfix releases and tweak releases were always expected, VampX's point was that progress on the emulator is very limited because the main version of the emulator on the PC is currently not being updated,

I've been playing Diablo in BIOS mode for some time now.  I don't know what version I'm running (I'd check but I'm watching a movie)  I haven't updated in quite awhile though.  The only problem I've had is the music skipping.  That is easily fixed with the music turned off though.  PCSXBOX kicks ass!   :D   Thanks Xport!

exactly, lowki = retard who doesnt know the difference between activly coding an emulator and making bugfixes to an allready existing sourcecode.
