FreePSX beta v0.1
Posted by XanTium | December 2 21:09 EST | News Category: Xbox360
 
Ced2911, member of the LS-Team, released the first public version of FreePSX: a Playstation1 emulator for homebrew/JTAG 360s.
The GFX emulation is very good for most games, but there are still a few sound problems.
The release includes the full source-code for other developers who may want to help improving FreePSX.

So far I could only get MK trilogy to work my 3d games like MK4 won't work right. Only sound effects work on MK T no music, but it's only a beta. I am glad they are still working on this hopefully it will be running in the near future.

Wow Only took 5 years to emulate a 15 year old system awesome...  So probably 10 years for the Dreamcast?

Sorry for my cynicism...

While I think this is great, it seems no one cares about the xbox scene anymore.  Only a few select groups and either they get arrested, or disband.  That's why I don't bother donating anymore, it's like why would i donate for a loss cause?

I am glad there are 50 million tools to extract your NAND, great.  Let's focus on fun stuff like, emulators.  How can the N64 not be emulated yet, why has no one picked that project up.  Seems like the original creator abandoned it after his "incident"  which I understand, but why has NO ONE ELSE done it?  Out of the ooo 7 billion people in this world?  I would gladly donate to a project like that.  

I just hope this doesn't become another dead project is all.

Just so cryptic now because of all that's happened.

Just saw my Xbox-scene RSS feed update on my cellphone and instantly threw myself over the closest computer I could find to secure a download of this betarelease tongue.gif

So anyone tried any other formats than .iso? Most of my PSX-roms are in .bin/cue or .iso or even .mdf/mds.

I'm not at home right now so I can't test it myself, but an answer would be great smile.gif

Use ECM Tools to convert the ecm file properly. And don't talk about downloading any roms.


I tried FFVII - Xbox shuts off right when the intro FMV ends
FFIX - Intro FMV plays for a few seconds with sound but no video and then the Xbox shuts off
Tekken 3 - Character select screen stays on when I start a fight -> unplayable.

All of them are .bin format. Maybe they need to be in .iso format to work properly? The FreePSX previews show the first playable area of FFVII, but my Xbox shuts off right when it begins.

I believe it was created with an SDK that hasn't leaked, so no one has continued the project. I could easily be mistaken though, I don't know much about programming.

You have to remember the majority of Xbox 360's can not be hacked to run unsigned code, its its not as easy as soft modding an Xbox 1. I think thats why the homebrew scene is so small compared to back in the Xbox 1 days.

It was also a lot easier to port apps to the Xbox 1 as it ran on the x86 architecture like PC's do. Today we have cheap Nettop PC's that make great little Media Centers / Emulation machines and use a lot less power than an Xbox 360.

I know I couldn't do any better so i'm just grateful for what we do have.

@ InsaneNutter : Love64 is still being worked on by Team Xelove. The newer SDK has not been "leaked" but people do have it, you just will never find it on a torrent site. You are correct that the limited number of hackable machines is the main reason for limited development. Another huge factor is the virus over at se7ensins which has spilled over to here and a couple other places.  

Edit: It's running just fine...I was running the wrong XeX before Oops

 I'll have more input once i've tried a game on it

Strange that Tekken 3 isn't working properly considering it was one of the games shown to be working correctly in the screenshots released a few months ago when it was in development.

BTW, can you run games in fullscreen?

Question is if this is just gonna be a one off release and never(or rarely) updated again like every other 360 emulator. It'll be great if they get it reasonably playbable as quick as possible, but if not i'm not gonna build my hopes up.

It's an early beta-release, I didn't expect any sound at all and certainly not 24fps or anything close.
But I just tried GTA1, a bit slow and chopppy sound, but still fun tongue.gif

Can't wait for further releases, maybe I'll finally get to play Resident Evil 3 Nemesis, or Code Veronica X.
Never got to finish those back in the days tongue.gif

my images (MGS and CNC) were ECM compressed.
had to extract it.
now MGS ist starting but in the game i just see the HUD - so its unplayable.
but CNC is working fine (besides of the sound)

Ok, I've tried a few of my old games...

Hog's Of War
Ripped this to a .bin using ImgBurn. Disc is a pirate.
The game has choppy sound at menu and in game, and no sound on videos. Game starts and lest me enter a new mission but once the mission starts the camera just stays looking at the sky (suppose to swoop down to view the first hog). I can still get into the pause menu and return to the main menu when the game it just looking at the sky.

Medal of Honor
Ripped this to a .bin using ImgBurn. Disc is a pirate.
Won't start at all

Silent Hill
Ripped this to a .bin using ImgBurn. Disc is a pirate.
Starts and lets me see the intro video (no sound in the intro video, choppy sound in menu and game) then just shows me a black screen. Though when I press select the inventory menu shows up and I can navigate that fine.

May try more tomorrow.

Mortal Kombat 3 (NTSC-U) - loads to "Prepare for Kombat" then just stays black
Mortal Kombat Trilogy (NTSC-U) - runs perfectly, though CDDA is not working (I can't think of any emulator that plays CDDA from ISOs)
Mortal Kombat 4 (NTSC-U) - intro FMVs play, no picture during any other part of the game

I think it's called THPS2 Remix or something like that, it has some of the levels from the first game added to it and a few other things, IIRC. THPS3 was the best of the series, IMO.

well im totally confused

in xexmenu i tried running:

psx.xex - makes my 360 turn off then reboots, tried multiple times

and

Fichiers compiles\Alpha\default.xex - will run, i assume the games are supposed to be listed here but its doesnt see any iso files, and i have lots of them. do they need to be in any particular place?

EDIT:

Fichiers compiles\Alpha\default.xex - will run, it can see the ff7disc1.iso i have in there but you click it and it freezes on that main screen

is anyone using any particular programme to make their games into isos as i have lots of copies and im currently using magiciso

I only tried Grandia (us) so far with the compiles\Beta\default.xex and hq3x , it gets to after the intro video when people start talking but I got a black screen and it froze the xbox.

Haven't tried alpha or hq2x / scale 2x.

Edit : Just tried scale 2x, doesn't lag as much but it still black screens and freezes the xbox.

from what i have seen so far from other peoples comments this port isnt worth using unless you can improve it. i know nothing about that kind of stuff so im in no posistion to complain about other peoples hard work, but i think im going to wait for a new or improved version, but its a good start for development.

I don't see why this is "not worth using," the bezel is kind of annoying I'll admit, and the somewhat distorted image it produces is weird, but hwy, it's a PSX emulator for the 360. It doesn't have too great of compatibility, but for a first release, I would call it a success. It does run several games, afterall. I'm gonna give a couple more games a try later tonight, probably WWF Smackdown! 2.

To make the emulator work properly:

Extract PSX.XEX and EFFECT.FX from PSX folder
Put them into your emulator folder, BETA or ALPHA (where default.xex is). Rename default.xex to anything else (like default.xe or whatever) to make sure FSD doesn't add this later. Rename PSX.XEX to default.xex, remember effect.fx must be there at the same folder level.

Now try it again with your games!

DRIVER and MGS working for me so far. Still sound issues but 3D games work @ good speed! (360 freezes when selecting "Try Again" option in Driver, but the game is playable at least)
Now you can't say this isn't a good alpha/beta...

Didn't work for THPS2. Although, I did get some weird audio issues when I tried booting the game. I guess that's a step farther?  tongue.gif

I can verify this works as well! Tons of 3d games work. Twisted Metal 2 and 3 work fine, also gran tourism 1, and crash bandicoot all work at close to full speed! I would test more but I got finals to study for, maybe tomorrow.

This is actually a really good emulator!!!!!!!  tongue.gif
