Many thanks to Neverwill for the great new skins!
There is a full-color version also included. To change to it, go to
Configuration -> Video/Skin Configuration -> Select Skin
What's new:
- Brought up to date with core UI features
- Multiple XBEs for PCSX cores :
1.4 : PCSXBox version 1
1.5 : PCSXBox versions 2-13
1.6 : new as of version 14
- Selectable SPU cores:
1.6 : PCSXBox versions 1-11
1.9 : PCSXBox versions 12-13
- Selectable GPU cores:
1.12 : PCSXBox versions 1-7
1.15 : PCSXBox versions 8-11
1.16 : PCSXBox versions 12-13
- Bugfix recMTC2 : Medievil works now in the recompiler instead of just the
CPU interpreter mode (possibly other games as well)
Medievil actually always worked if you enabled "Use CPU interpreter" from the
CPU fixes menu, but it was unbearably slow.
Set Frameskip and Framelimit off and set the SPU settings to the fastest possible.
It's still far from fullspeed, but it's playable now.
- ISO9660 support
- Save state selection menu now has timestamp next to each used state.
- Each game gets its own set of memory cards
- Added new game configuration section "Set SPU Fixes"
+ XA Sound - disable/enable (disable to speed up performance), default was on
+ XA Speed Fix - if XA sound is too fast, try enabling this, default was off
+ Reverb - better reverb effects at the expense of performance, default was Best/Slowest
+ Interpolations - better sound effects at the expense of performance, default was Gaussian/Good
+ Wait for CPU Action - Fixes games like Valkyrie Profile (tested) and Metal Gear Solid (untested)
+ IRQ in Decoded Sound Buf - Fixes Crash Team Racing (untested)
(Setting Reverb and Interpolations to None/Fastest can give noticeable FPS increases
since all prior versions had them set to better/slower values.)
- See notes about Memory Cards
- Rewinding does not work (not that it ever did anyway)
Memory Cards
------------
I've noticed that memory cards are somewhat glitchy in some games. For example,
in Valkyrie Profile, when you try and save, it will sometimes say it cannot
read the memory cards or that it fails. Similarly, when trying to reload, it
will not show any save slots. I've found that retrying will result in success
(eventually.)
I recommend using both memory cards and save states while playing, just in case.

Why don't you switch port 1/2 with ports 3/4
I might have to give this emulator a try, I have wanted to play Castlevania sotn for a while.

DracX worked fine for me until I accidently hit the Fast Forward button, at which point the screen went dark. I normally unmap FF though and I'm not sure that would have happened had I not hit that button. Anyway, I had no problems getting past the loading screen on the US version. I had Frame Skip, Frame Limit and Old Frame Skip on.

how can i get this to work I can not see it in evox why
Probably because you didn't rename one of the XBE's to "default.xbe". The emulator comes with 3 XBEs to choose from and you dashboard won't find them unless one is named "default.xbe". Just choose which core version you want to use and change the name.

Thanks again, Xport! You've provided me with so many hours of fun for myself and my friends, I must shake your hand. And as I know that won't happen ever, I'll go ahead and give you a virtual hand-shake. Whatever the hell that is, would be for you to figure out.
Cheers.

This will probably also fix those "unmap your throttle button" workarounds that were posted in the compatibility thread way back when.

Man, the ps2 scene must really really envy not having some guys like xport, lantus, nes, gogoackman, the guys from xbmc and everyone else than make the xbox scene so impressive.
Thanks you so much (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

You kick all forms of ass. I still can't believe that one man with a base GUI and a couple dev kits can do more than entire teams of coders.
I hope you make good money in real life because you definitely deserve it.
Thanks you so much for the continued effort.

Few questions:
2) Seem the new build is much slower/taxing. With v.13 i played CV:SotN at full speed in 720p and with SuperScale2x filter. Now with v.14 it is cripplingly slow (35fps), and the music chops at those setting. Any suggestions?
1) Skin: is it possible to size the main menu? In 720p the main menu doesn't fill the screen, but has black bars all the way around. Just like how it did before in v.13. In xports genesis and nes emulators the main menu screen fills the entire screen in 720p.
Also the skin is beautiful, neverwill.
