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.

Well pretty much you, since i never flamed you in that post about pcsxbox.
i merely pointed out that to make pcsx a better emulator there would have to be worked extensivly on the emulator core itself,
and we all know how many projects Xport has, so like i said back then,
i very much doubt that he has interest in taking up a complete psx emulator project.
just like when lantus said he couldnt do much until a new version of Snes9X was released,
and since it seemed like no new snes9x version was going to be released
he released a new version of Xsnes9X using the same source code as before,
just with added bugfixes to make it run better on Xbox.
i find it very amusing that you and the other tards here are getting all worked up about the fact that i merely told you the way i saw it,
you could have just spoken to me about how you feel about it,
but instead you decided to get all agressive and offensive.
so yeah.. you're pretty much the retard here.

I switched from v11 to v 12, a few days ago. (i know v 13 is out, but i doubt it fixes it).
I'm using virtual memory cards, NOT save states.

cdrwin is better, makes only 2 output files rather than clonecds 4, and the total filesize is smaller

It'll load a BIOS fine, but without a BIOS in the directory it just refuses to start a game (thought it was supposed to default to HLE), and it never presents an option for HLE, nor could I find one in the settings.
Thanks for your help

your not allowed to ask where to get it, to burn it you can make into an xiso using simplexiso and then burn that image to a cd/dvd using recordnow or nero
then use a file browser on your xbox to transfer the files from the disc to a folder on your xbox
now my question is about diablo, i wanted to say this earlier but i never got the chance
you said that this game worked, but it didn't work for me
did anyone get this game to work, and if you did can you tell me what settings you used

Also, when I first load FF7 and get into battles, I get the entrance "movie" then the battle begins and I get my white hand cursor over enemies and party and such... but after a few battles, the intro "movie" is skipped and I no longer get cursors... only way to fix is reload the game...

I know you aren't currently working on new features etc. -- I have a question more than anything for you (although if you can think of a way to fix it it would be wonderful) -- Some games (Dragon Warrior 7 for example) work fine if your using Version 1 of the emulator. Yet when you try to run them in anything recent (i've tried versions 11, 12 and 13) there are numerous glitches that did not originally exist. I have no problem using version 1 execpt that you aren't able to switch discs properly using that version of the program. Do you know a way to do this using V1? In any case as I said many of us would appreciate you looking into why games such as this don't work in the newer versions of the emulator.
Also does anyone know where the Save files for V1 went to? I looked in the directory where all the other versions stick them and they don't seem to be the same. Just something I was wondering out of curiousity. (I was gonna try loading a save-game in V13 that I started in V1 to see if I could get into the game)
Anyway thanks alot in advance for your answers, and hopefully thank you in advance for a fix (although I completly understand if you don't want to put the time into doing a fix for this)

Maybe he just got bored of porting stuff, cant blame him..
anyhoo he deserves alot of credit for being a porter who actually listened to people's idea's and suggestions.

I cleared all my old saves and config files, and I'm open to options, but the in-game save function is worthless too! Whenever I try to save, as soon as I select Slot 1 (or 2) it comes up with something like "Checking for memory card" and that window keeps flashing on the screen locking up the game!

Any ideas?
Post by: Twille on July 16, 2005, 05:09:00 PM
basically, the only way you can ensure a 'good', loadable save state, is by doing the save state at some point that the game pauses, and waits for input by the user. IE: during text conversations between characters, when it pauses, and waits for you to press "X" or "O" to continue the conversation.
hope this helps

okay see my problem is that after settings are customized for a game, how do you edit those settings... AFTER you find out that they don't work?
basically i've done this so many times that barely ANY of my games work on this emulator xD

anyway, i'd been having problems getting games to play. games like FF7, chrono cross, legend of mana, all kinds of games that always worked before. for a while, i'd thought that it was my crappy HDD, running things slower since it's become nearly full. it was simply that my xbox doesn't like v13, but is fine with v11. my xbox is fairly old, with some ghetto, unflashable xecuter2 chip. i don't really care that it wasn't working, since now it is, but maybe this'll help someone.
also, i'd really appreciate if you, Xport, would look into why japanese games have that loud buzzing noise. most of them seem to work as likely as any US game except for that. i've tried the JP bioses, but they don't seem to matter (none of them seem to matter). anyway, some kind of theory would be appreciated. thanks either way.

for you, i think you just need to press X to play your games if you need to change your settings again before the game starts up. and save files are kept in E/SAVES

The buzzing is usually caused by a game trying to play CDDA and it just not working properly. Hit Disable CDDA in the CPU fixes menu to get rid of it.

PCSX is great. I've only had a problem with one game, but I thought it might be of interest. The came is 'Ore no Ryouri' a japanese cooking game. It is one of the few games that only supported the duel shock controller. The game appears to run fine (goes through its demo loop and everything.) but the joypad doesnt affect it at all. Am I missing something or does this happen to all of the games that only support the duel shock ? (anyone running ape escape ?)

PCSXBox does not support analog control, so games like Ape Escape and I'm The Chef sadly are unplayable. Next time read the FAQs and READMEs before posting a question.

d:\bios\ is basically a shorthand way of referring to the current directory 9e the directory that the application was launched from). So let's say PCSXbox is stored in f:\emulation\psx\.. if you want, you can set it to look for the bios in f:\emulation\psx\bios\ or you can just write d:\bios\. The same thing goes for running of a DVD or CD. Look for the "Change Default Directories" option in.. I think Utilities or Configuration.

Post by: darkstalker on August 07, 2005, 10:20:00 AM
- Xport hasn't been around in quite sometime, and it appears he has given up on his emulators.
- PCSXBox is based upon PCSX, whose source code was abandoned years ago when the author decided to start working on PCSX2 instead.
So the most we probably have to look forward to is a release that fixes stuff in the GUI or adds a few options, but no new core updates.

The source code is publically available. It doesn't really need to be on Sourceforge. Oh, by the way, people don't give a rat's ass about SNES9x. Development has massively slowed and many of the developers have abandoned it or went over to working on ZSNES instead. There's only a handful of people that are left working on it. It's highly doubtful that we'll be seeing another major release of SNES9x any time in the near future, if ever.

The main problem affecting SNES9x is the fact that most interested programmers are on Windows and unfortunately the Windows port's source is a mess (mainly the GUI, from what I hear, which is the main problem with the emulator, as you said). There's still some progress on the SNES9x core and the Linux port, but the Windows port is pretty much dead. A lot of them went over to work on ZSNES, where they are working on separating the GUI from the core, translating the ASM over to C slowly and so on. The eventual goal is to remove all ASM from ZSNES so that they can make the source as portable as SNES9x. Who knows, eventually we could have a working ZSNES port for the Xbox (though I wouldn't hold my breath for it).

You can go to any directory you want at any time. Hit the Y button to go up a directory at any time. All the Xport emulators have an option to change the default directory as well. Find it in the Configuration menu and then go to the directory you want to be at by default and hit Start I believe.

This probably already has been requested, but it'd be cool if it had:
- Dual shock analog and rumble support
- 4 player multitap support
I had one problem with NFS3, I created the .bin file but it would load (it was like 750 megs).
Never the less, I see it on the compatability list. If I create a .iso for it, would that make it work?
And would the file size be smaller, what's a good program for creating .isos?

As for deleting saves, I'm not sure. I believe you have to access the playstation bios to do this, but I have no idea how you do that in pcsxbox. What you could do is transfer the memory card to pc, and load it up with something like the epsxe emulator so that you could access the PS bios and delete the saves. You could also transfer saves in between the 2 memory cards in the PS bios if I'm not mistaken. Hope this solves your problem

I have the bios bin file in the bios dir, I have even tried with the SCPH7502.bin file as some suggested
but the program was only searching for SCPH1001.bin , so I renamed SCPH7502.bin to SCPH1001.bin
still no go. I have bin and cue files. I've tried both in hle and iso mode and no go. I've checked the compatibility
list for the games and they all say they all run very good, except some say run in bios more or hle.
the games are RE1, 2, 3. All do the same when I try to load them
in bios mode it just shows the loading screen and nothing else. in hle mode it just jumps back to previous menu screen only only frames of the background animation is showing. if I try it again the background is black and with a 3rd time the whole xbox freezes.
seems nothing really works to make it run.
the bin dun seem to be faulty since I can read them fine with ei isobuster etc.
any help is appreciated!

Is there a way to swap these two layers, or maybe it's a transparency problem?

According to the compatibility list, this game should work?

Does anyone know if I can transfer my savestates/memory cards from ePSXe on the PC to this Xbox emulator?
Yes, memory cards are compatible. Not sure for savestates though.

Trying to play Final Fantasy Tactics, the controller becomes unresponsive at the first battle at the monastary... any clues on how to fix that? Saving state works fine... tutorial works fine. When I press Y (Triangle) it makes a sound but that's it, the frame skip button ® works fine too.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Final Fantasy Tactics - works 100% load and save work too. old frameskip, framelimit, parasite eve/vandel heart fix all ON, everything else OFF.
Check the compatibility list next time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'm trying to start tekken3 but when i try to start the .bin file it says: "Could not load D:\bios\scph1001.bin".
You know what it means and how I can make it work?
I tired to change the BIOS Mode from "BIOS File" to "HLE"(what ever it may be) and then start the .bin, but then the programm crashes.
How can I make it work? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)
thanks

The only thing i can really think of to improve with the next release of Pcsx is a couple of things (mind you neither of these are game breaking)
1. Add flexability to the FMV decoder. I'm not sure how it all works, i know that there is some sparratic playback with some titles, and I also know there are specific fixes for some games (i.e. FFVII)
2. More flexability with skinning. Maybe something that allows animated gifs in the background.
To be honest, if you never change anything with the Pcsx, it wouldnt curb its ability to playback most titles unhinderd, and thats all anyone can ever ask for considering the xbox should have never been able to play psx games.
QUOTE(pepe2004 @ Jun 12 2006, 08:14 PM)
Since the author of PSX didn't want to release the source, anyone know if there is any possibility to ask the epsxe authors about the source?. Just a thought.

I have a soft modded 'box. No matter what game I try to run, it hangs on the "game loading" screen that appears as soon as you click to launch the game. It is not frozen because I can back up into the PCSXbox menu.
What could be the deal here? The game is on the hard drive.

Oh, and i dont know if anyone has requested this yet but i think command line launching would rock. I know i would personally love being able to make a single disc that, when put in my disc tray, automatically loads Castlevania symphony of the night as if it were an xbox game. I know this is implemented in some xport emu's but i cant remember if it is in this one. Thanks!

What game are you trying to run? Does the compatibility list say it works or not? What version of pcsxbox are you using? Answer these questions and we may be able to answer yours.

although only a handful of games use the mouse, they are infinitely better for it (command and conquer series, syndicate wars etc)

My guess is that it's something burried in the settings. I've tried v11, v12, and now 13 with no luck.

I'm using v13. I've tried several games that are reported to work: Suikoden, Suikoden 2, Vandal Hearts, FFVII, Silent Hill. It never even jumps past the "Loading" screen that I get when I select a game. I've tried both BIOS and HLE mode. The bios file for PS1 is in the folder and I've tried several different copies of it so it isn't a bum bios file.

Make sure that software filters are disabled (simple2x, hq2x, etc.)

Another problem which really bugs me is with the HLE modes in both pcsxbox and surreal 64, both cause my xbox to freeze consistantly. Ah well.

Ok, I have always had this problem with PCSXbox.

What he said.
It took me forever to figure this out on my own.
Just make sure that the software filters are set to 'none', and it will boot fine. Then once in the game you can enable the software filters, but once you reboot and start the game again, you have to make sure the software filters are disabled. Kinda a pain, but it works.
The only game that I have that runs fine with software filters enabled when starting a game is CV:SotN.

I mistakenly picked HLE on a couple games that need BIOS, and vice versa
Thanks!!

Do you know what I mean
Thanks
THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
Son of a bitch, I feel stupid. WHen you said "press X" I started thinking about a PSX controller, and X is in the same place A is on the XBOX controller, so I figured you meant press "A"
I'm such a douche. Anyway, thanks so much for helping, I've been searching and searching for this
Peace out bud

I just recently tried this emu out for the first time. Does it have an option to render the graphics at a higher resolution a la Bleem?
Not sure if this is the correct answer but not as far as i can tell. The only way to pretty it up is with software/hardware filter tinkering. Besides, i imagine rendering at higher resolutions would really hit this emulator in the speed department. Best to stick to the lowest settings you can for accurate speed (cept for silent hill that goes 150% at all times, cutting dialog so short, its not even worth playing....)
Really wish xport would tweak this emulator in certain ways...if anyone can, he can. I mean, Silent Hill, Metal Gear Solid, Valkyrie Profile, and Star Ocean 2nd story all work on pc pcsx so i assume its a problem in the porting? Could be wrong but i doubt it. WE NEED TWEAKS, XPORT, YOU GOD OF A DEVELOPER, YOU! I know he helped us out a lot with the parasite eve/vagrant hearts fix....now we just need a few more of those, man....come on, you know you want to play Valkyrie Profile on the box....yeah, you do...
Post by: SlyBeast on July 19, 2006, 08:29:00 PM
It is disappointing to hear that Silent Hill doesn't work well. That's one of the greats.
