PSX-P Beta 1 Released

greg | September 24, 2006

Update: Maybe not so remarkable afterall… I’ve received numerous emails indicating Yoshihiro has actually ripped most, if not the majority, of code and released it as his own. In actual fact this is PacManFan’s PSPSone emulator released a few months ago. We’ll continue to keep it hosted for now; nice work PacManFan. ;)


Wow… Another remarkable accomplishment today… Yoshihiro has released the first beta of PSX-P.

PSX-P emulates the Sony Playstation (PSOne) which marked its spot on the scene back in 1994-95.

PSOne Emulator Screenshot

PSX-P has been confirmed to work on firmware 1.0 - 1.50, and 2.00 - 2.60 via eLoader. Of course this remains in the early stages of development so you shouldn’t expect complete stability just yet. In fact it’s mentioned that execution is slow due to lack of an optimized dynarec (dynamic compiler). Nevertheless — give it a try and provide your feedback below!

ROMs are distributed in ISO or BIN format — we will not provide links to these; however, we will gladly provide you with the URL to the required SCPH1001.BIN file, the PS1 BIOS.

Place the BIOS file in: ms0:/PSP/GAME/__SCE__psxp/bios
Place the ROMs in: ms0:/PSP/GAME/__SCE__psxp/rom

Enjoy!

Been waiting for something like this to reappear, hopefully it’ll be updated (unlike the other PSX emulator floating around)

Why even bother releasing this its useless. No doubt another go nowhere emulator released by a pack of idiots looking for credit for something that will never be done.

2006-09-24 16:52:29

@8

yeah i totally agree with you. I also hate it when people take time out of their time to create free homebrew and come up short. I really think that any coder that has an inkling that someone might be disattisfied with a release, he should just give up and stop trying. Jesus i’m a dick

 
Comment by Nick
2006-09-24 16:52:30

most of the ff games take place on more then 1 disk

Im guessing the size of 1-2 gigs, and i donno if the emu supports diskswapping?

somethign to look into

@ 8 & 18

wow, i guess that all coders should stop coding.

maybe psp hacks should close down, hell lets close down microsoft/sony and other little companies like nintendo.

Its gotta start somewhere, this may be a shaky release but it will develop either by these fellows or by others who improve on it.

By any means these guys have done a wonderfull thing. They beat sont to the relase of a psx emu.

Comment by Ferg
2006-09-24 17:36:41

some good work and although it may not be stable, its one hella of a proof of concept. I cud see a few work arounds the L2 and R2 buttons, my idea wud be use the D pad left and right buttons. Since the PS1 didnt originally have 2 analog sticks, there wudnt be a problem with movement as the analog stick on the PSP wud be used as the PS1 D pad or use the analog stick for L2 or R2, whichever prefered. as for disk swapping, i think there may have to be USB/WIFI implementation to support all the large ISO files, or just run it through iRshell! anyways damn fine work.

It’s a good start but not really playable right now. The only ISOS i have on my drive that work (well load up) are street fighter ex2 and Raiden (shooting game). Castlevania doesn’t work right now. This emulator shows a lot of promise. I just hope we can start a thread of working games when the emulator has other releases.

#24 and #28…
You say it has to start somewhere. No shit, but don’t “start” a homebrew app that hardly works at all, and release. It can start wherever the Hell it wants, but the Finished product is a completely different story. I don’t understand people who use that N64 emulator. It’s bullshit, and I’m sick of seeing worthless apps that come out just so the coders can say, “Yeah I made this.” Sweet, what exactly is it that you made? An emulator that runs 8 FPS? Hardly an emulator. Just because it can load most/some/hardly any games, doesn’t make it worth time. And as for you saying, “If you want one so bad, make it yourself.” No, dumbass, haha. Just because I can’t make an emulator doesn’t mean I do not have the right to say it sucks. That’s like going to the movies but you’re not allowed to state your opinion, we’re the audiance, we decide the popularity of something, food and bad. I say WAIT until you have something A LOT better than this. THEN release it so I don’t have to put up with 18 updates a week.

THIS IS GREAT. WON`T NEED TO UPDATE TO 3.0 TO GET PS1 EMU AND WON`T HAVE TO PAY FOR GAME IMAGES IF YOU HAVE ORIGIONAL PS1 GAMES.
Just rip them with ISOBUSTER to get the bin files.
Nice work and much respect. ps you don`t need the ps1 bios for this to work either. It works as is. So don`t bother with the stupid bios. PASSWORD for the zip file is http://www.pspgen.com yust copy and paste the website address into winzip. place bin files in folder f:\psp\game\__SCE__PSXP\roms\
hope this helps
works better if overclocked to 333mhz with devhook

To all the whineing smacktards who post on this website…. coders put in a lot of time and effort to do what they do. If you think you can pull a fully working emulator out off your fucking huge arse then fucking well DO IT! they releases these beta versions so people can test them and get feedback - constructive feedback! - “not why did you release this it barely works ‘whiiiiiiiiine’ I’m sick of getting all this stuff for free cause I’m a sad halfwit” - you bunch of FUCKING LOSERS

Well that’s enough of a rant from me - I’d just like to thank all the hard working coders who keep on releasing in spite of the utter bullshit they have to put up with….

On a finishing note, to all the whingers - get your computer… and all your other gadgets and shit, throw them out or better yet give them to someone who appreciates them and GET A LIFE!!!

Haven’t tried it yet, I’ll probably wait and see how everybody else makes out before I start dumping ISOs left and right.

Now guys, this is a very good thing. Can you imagine playing PSX games on your PSP? It’s probably the best thing to happen to homebrew since GBA become fully playable.

Think about it, if Sony is releasing PSOne games for your PSP via emulation, then it is possible to have a great emulator homebrew, IMHO.

So try to relax people. Let’s not bicker.

WTF is a gameboy? isnt it one of those pieces of plastic nintendoh trys to sell off?

anyway on a PSP you just drag the psp folder to the root folder in your psp. then drag your PS1 images into the folder named “ROMS”

and again, Everyone that flames saying it “dosent work” needs to get a life, or preferably end theirs. Lets give these coders some credit and do the bug testing.

#86, #87, man you guys just don’t get it do you? I mean honestly it’s like dealing with a bunch of retarded first graders that runs with their only style of, “If you don’t like it, YOU SUCK!” Good one, you idiots. Listen carefully, I give credit to the coders. THE ORIGINAL people that created this, this is actually stolen from an already made emulator you pieces of shit. And you want me to end my own life because this emulator runs at 5 FPS? Hahah. Think about your logic for a second, I say this is only useful when it runs at full speed. You say that I am making fun of the coders even though I never typed anything close to it. This sucks. The original people that coded this doesn’t. And you say I’m waisting time writing negative comments? What does it matter if it’s positive or negative? A comment is a comment, no matter what. You think your positive comments of, “Oh My God FF works… But it crashes.” Sweet. : )
