December 15, 2006gpSP v0.9 Released
Posted by greg
A pissed off Exophase has released gameplaySP 0.9 today. A whole whack of fixes (#), additions (+), and optimizations (@) have been made; still leaving this emulator in a beta state. Here’s the full changelog for your viewing pleasure:
- (#) Fixed stereo output being reversed.
- (#) Fixed a bug causing misaligned errors on 8bit writes to the gbc audio channel 3 wave data (fixes various super Robot Wars games)
- (#) Fixed DMA with garbage in their upper 4 bits (fixes a crash in Zelda: Minish Cap)
- (#) Added double buffering to the rendering, removes line artifacts. Big thanks to Brunni for the idea.
- (#) Fixed a bug preventing some SRAM based games from saving (fixes MMBN4-6)
- (#) Fixed a bug causing part of EWRAM to potentially get corrupted if code segments loaded in EWRAM cross 32KB boundaries (fixes Phantasy Star 2)
- (#) Fixed a bug causing games using movs pc in user mode (very bad behavior) to crash. Fixes Colin McRae Rally 2.0.
- (#) Improved timing a bit more. Fixes GTA Advance.
- (#) Fixed a sprite clipping bug (fixes crash in third boss of Zelda: Minish cap)
- (#) Increased translation buffer size significantly (fixes Donkey Kong: King of Swing)
- (#) Fixed a dynarec bug causing add pc, reg to not work in Thumb code (fixes crash in DBZ:LoZ, seems to fix crashes in battle in Golden Sun, probably fixes other games)
- (#) Made sprites using tiles < 512 not display in modes 3-5 (fixes a couple minor graphical bugs)
- (#) Removed abort on instruction 0×00000000 hack, was breaking a certain bugged up game (Scurge)
- (#) Fixed bug in flags generating variable logical shifts (fixes SD Gundam Force)
- (#) Fixed unaligned 16bit reads (fixes DBZ:LoZ in game)
- (#) Redid contiguous block flag modification checking AGAIN and hopefully got it right this time (fixes Mario vs. Donkey Kong)
- (#) Redid ldm/stm instructions, fixing some cases (along with the timing improvements fixes Mario & Luigi)
- (#) Fixed 14bit EEPROM addressing (hopefully fixes saving in a lot of games)
- (#) Completely redid memory handlers, accurately emulates open and BIOS reads now. Fixes Zelda: Minish Cap (roll bug, last dungeon), Rayman, MMBN 1 (last dungeon), probably others.
- (#) Fixed a minor graphical glitch on the edges of the screen (thanks Brunni and hlide for the help!)
- (#) Fixed crash on loading savestates from files of games not currently loaded, but be sure you have the exact file you loaded it from or gpSP will exit.
- (@) New memory handlers should provide performance boost for games that access VRAM significantly (ie 3D games)
- (@) Added dead flag elimination checking for logical shifts, probably doesn’t make a noticeable difference but should have been there anyway.
- (+)Added rapidfire to the button mappings.
- (+) Added auto frameskip. Removed fractional frameskip (don’t think it’s very useful with auto anyway). Select auto in the graphics/sound menu to activate it; frameskip value will act as the maximum (auto is by default on). Thanks again to Brunni for some help with this. Frameskip options are game specific.
- (+) Added vsync to the rendering. Only occurs when frames aren’t skipped. Seems to reduce tearing at least some of the time.
- (+) Added non-filtered video option.
- (+) Cheat support (Gameshark/Pro Action Replay v1-v3 only), still in early stages, doesn’t support everything; codes may cause the game to crash, haven’t determined yet if the codes are bad or the implementation is. See cheat section for more information.
- (+) Added ability to change audio buffer size. Does not take affect until you restart the game.
- (+) Added analog config options.
- (+) Added ability to set analog sensitivity and turn off analog.
- (+) Added ability to change the clock speed. This is a game specific option. Try lower speeds w/auto frameskip to save battery life.
- (+) Fixed savestate speed on crappy Sony sticks.

Does any one know that mario lugi super star saga works yet?
Or Donking Kong 3 Loads?
i am not home ill appreciate some one let me know thanks.
Yaayy!!
Thanks, now I can finally continue playing Zelda: The Minish Cap:):)
man good job exophase people really dont dont appreciate what you do all they do is bitch and complain about why this or that game wont work or what changed this is stupid but thanks to you we get a full speed GBA emu that plays most games
This Emu does not work on Fw 2.80 plz make an update quick.=(
thanks for the awesome update exophase, now to get it working on 2.80 and ill be a happy camper.
i was just wondering if u guys patched the thing before trying it on the xloader
EXOPHASE! YOU THE MAN!
nice stuff…he was busy! Now I need some good games.
Does Sword of Mana work?
Excellent release Exophase. You should set up a donation counter so people can donate to you. It will be our way of showing our appreciation. :)
Agreed. And to add to that if you DON’T contribute anything to the community except snide and idiotic comments about the contributions of others then do the planet a favor and shut HELL up. P.S. Exophase you ARE the man.
This totally rox!!!
By the way, what does Greg mean with “A pissed off Exophase has released…” ??
Awesome release exophase, I was waiting for your latest release, and it was worth the wait!
and mozex:
he probably meant that exophase wasn’t happy with the kai knock offs.
Exophase is the man.. and nothng beats the original.. Great Job.. I thank you for all your hard work
Nice job Exophase!!
*Why was he pissed off?*
yea…why is he pissed?
WOW,Yeahhh :)
It is a fuckin’ Good emulator!!!
Thx a Lot!!
Read the readme file after you download this emulator and you will see why he is pissed. On a side note. Kingdom Hearts still crashes on me. And Sword of Mana still shutsdown after enter the name for the charcter. Oh well maybe next time.
Nothin better …Keep it up Ex =)
my kingdom hearts works perfect, just make sure it’s unzipped.
Exophase is piss odd
because
“I actually worked really hard on this all day to add a bunch of stuff. This is, of course, in spite of all the crap from this scene. Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of very appreciative and dedicated people around (my two beta testers, of course). But I have to deal with a lot of things. People swearing at me for refusing to give them the BIOS, for instance. One person even threatened to report me to Nintendo because I refused to send him one. People literally arguing with me about why it’s not fair for me to refuse to send them ROMs. People impersonating me on other message boards. Someone recently pretended to be me and said that I was giving up because I can’t compete with Takka’s releases. Things like that.”
and Sword on mana has works, has for while
you must have the “”good” bios it and play most other games too
look at the readme.txt to see if you have the right bios
LOL omg…thats insane.
(note- I’m not really Exophase, I just thought it would be funny)
he is a fucker for not giving us the bios though…i mean, really…i appreciate his work, but the only bios i could find doesnt seem to have working sound. it’s kind of retarded that everyone expects us to be a bunch of tech wizzes and dump our own bios, especially hard when you dont even have a gameboy advance! why doesnt he just rewrite his own version of the bios and give that out? thats how i got mine, someone was giving away free license versions they created. it would be interesting to see what he could come up with in that area if he put his mind to it.
You know if you have a gba and card you can dump your own bios (like I did)…or if you’re not retarted you can find it on IRC pretty easy…
I said I don’t have a gameboy advance, but I guess somehow you more more focused on insulting me than actually paying attention to what was being said. Secondly, I have never had an interest in using IRC. Not EVERYONE uses that crap you know…
actually, now that I think about it…it’s a very small portion of people using it, and they always think it’s some big important thing that everyone should use. Newsflash— it became obsolete when AIM came out, and that was a long fucking time ago.
yeah really, and it’s always people like that, who keep using IRC and they act all superior about it like if you don’t use it it’s because you don’t know how and you’re a retard or whatever for using AIM.
fuck those people, they’re just a bunch of fat old farts. nobody wants to talk to them anyway lol
i’ll bet if we keep adding comments here, it will look really cool. kinda like some wierd tripped out 3-D thing…
I dont comment much but seriously, an emulator is just that, it emulates the system, it is not the creators responisblility to get you a good BIOS. Buy a god damn GB and dump the BIOS yourself, or get smart and learn how to search what what to look for. You guys need to appreciate that someone is willing to take the time to bring you something like this, you could at least say thanks and stop being cry baby bitches.
Wonderful, thanks Exophase!
W007!
i’ve been bitchin at exophase for a few months now to fix minish cap…. now it runs great!!!
great work exophase
would this work on psp firmware 2.80 please tell me because i want to try and dont want to brick my sony psp thank and if u can please tell me on my msn or by email my msn is ballaeman@hotmail.com

OMG I LUV U KINGDOM HEARTS ON 2.8 …and it froze at the 3d scene is there any way to skip that?
Continually press the X button…but u dont have to press it throughout the whole thing (thx god….its quite long XD) just enough to get a few seconds into it…

Not bad for an update, but I can see it came in a hurry. I don’t mean to be offensive, but I just noticed 2 bugs:
1. The gamepad’s configuration is lost after reboot if you change it (all gamepad button changes are lost).
2. Some hints in D-pad’s configuration page are misplaced.
Other than that, I can say that this version works amazingly enough for an average demanding gamer like me. Thank you very much, Exophase.
Sounds like an awesome update! I downloaded it to my 2.8, but it doesnt seem to work….. its cool though. It would be nice if Exophase can fix it.
you do realize when they say “not in a gat way” they in fact mean IN A GAY WAY . F.Y.I.
err gat = gay
(bad fingers)
jeez, i hope that doesnt become the next “pwns”
WHY DOES THIS NOT WORK ON 2.8 SHOULDN’T THIS WORK ON IT
AND CANT YOU USE PATCHISO TO GET IT WORKING ON XLODER
does anyone else encounter the problem in zelda: minish cap with this emulator where you can’t roll AT ALL? I can’t get all the tiger scrolls because of this and it pisses me off…
roll works form me must be your bios or rom
is 0.8 roll didnt work
but in .0.9 roll works fine
Accept it, the PSP is old hat,get real it’s a dead machine the DS has won and in the next round Microsoft and Nintendo will be the main fighters.
ARE U FUCKEN RETARTED PSP IS THE BEST THING THAT HAPPEN TO THE WORLD IF YOU DONT LIKE YOUR PSP GIVE IT TO ME BITCH. AND WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU ON A SITE DEDICATED TO PSP AND THEN SAY SHIT ABOUT PSP.
no. PSP hacking is good. a normal PSP with no homebrew / iso’s is NOT worth the money at all.
well i’d pay 50 bucks for one maybe, but thats about it. the homebrew is what makes it priceless
here here
wii is soooo gay
just the menu is sooo gay
it tells you to use the wrist strap for the controller in case you are too retard to avoid it to fall down. look for it on youtube.
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE. JUST SHUT UP MAN UR SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GAY
YAY the KING is back
how do u use cheats?i couldnt seem to find it in the README, and u dont have to make a big deal about the gay way thing its just a spelling mistake soooo relax.
i love the full speed and that all the games i have now play great but i did notice that the screen size and button config resit every time you leave the emu this time other than that awsome
dude the ds is fucking retarded shitty stick figures and games geared for 6 year old kids..(need i mention dogs mother fucker) you are prolly a ds guy who accidentially stumbled onto this site and discoverd you for fucked by nintendo… but then again you like that donkey kong cock don’t ya… say another think about the psp and i will hunt you down and shove your beloved ds up your ass …. fucking gay wad… pussy…. bitch… thought so !!!
WHO THE FUCK ARE U TALKING TOOO.
i cant type i broke my finger sticking it in the eye of the last mother fucker talking shit about the psp….
y is the guy whos talkin trash about psp even on this site hes just mad cuz he don tgot 1..i got ds and psp(ds is pretty gay and i cant sell it for certain reasons) aaaaaaaannnnnnnywayz cheat help plz?
finally man good stuff, that kai crap was gettin annoying
i like how people bitch so much like “get this to work on 2.8″ or “psp is shitty as hell”. for one, not his fault you made the mistake of upgraing and two, people who are talking shit about the psp… go fuck yourself.
DUDE SOME PEOPLE DIDN’T UPGRADE IT WE JUST GOT IT ON 2.8 SO U CAN SAY SHIT, BUT FOR THE PEOPLE THAT TALK SHIT ABOUT PSP, THE CAN GO FUCK THEM SELFS AND THERE MOMS
The intro in Kingdom Hearts still wont play, its all fuzzy and then just stops playing. I was only able to get past it once but after that i cant get past it anymore. fix please :)
lol REALLY pissed off, his keyboard must be in the trash now, he had to fix too many bugs that he destroyed it… XD
Can anyone confirm if swordcraft story is working w/out random crashes?…i would love to finish this game on the go…
EXOPHASE IS AMAZING.
That is all. Good work.
Thanks for this exophase! I can finally play the games i want ^^ and for the ppl who can’t get it to work on 2.8 and are too lazy to actually read some of the past comments… you can get it to work on the xloader.
By the way, can someone confirm if Mario Tennis/Mario and Luigi work?
well u know what i noticed this version wont work with harvest moon fomt when i loaded my state it froze.but the kai version does work now i have to have two different versions.anywayz like i said cheat help plz ne body!!!
I’m sorry Ex, I’ve been using the Kai ones.
I’ll update now.
什么时候破解２.８啊？
lol i tried translating this and came up with a bunch of different things.
i think you are trying to say you have 2.8 and want to know either if this thing will work on it or if there is a way to downgrade.
if you have 2.8, you are screwed for now. dont upgrade, just wait for a while and someone will come up with a downgrader for you
if u have trouble wit kindgom hearts on the intro put the frame skip to 79 or around that area and it will skip through the intro all glitchy frame skip 99 doesnt seem to work.so use 79
VERY nice, love the Exophase releases.
thats what i call an upgrade…..igot tired of reading all the fixes XD …thanks for the upgrade Exophase…and don´t be pissed off..they can´t beat you.
very cool. Thanx exophase, what a cool holiday gift. And before anyone asks YES FREAKING MINISH CAP WORKS NOW IT DOESN’T CRASH (read above)
Wow, I can notice the speed increase in a few games. Awesome work Exophase.
is it working with 2.6 ta-082.
SUPER MARIO- SUPER STAR SAGA works
(doesn’t crash anymore when a fight starts)
Big THX to Exophase !!!!
you are thanking Exophase with a George Lucas sound system?
Aye, just a heads up, Guilty Gear Advances, which was working in the .8 release isnt working anymore. It freezes up at character select screen, and i get a blue screen. i can upload a screenshot of bluescreen if needed.
aside from that, Exophase ftw! ty for making such great emu/continueing to update.
OMFG ..why do u ppl Bitch so much about fixes!!! …consider reading other comments b4 u bitch so damn much..I’m getting so fucking tired of seeing the same damn complaints and I’m sure Ex is too.
Fantastic release. Zelda Minish cap 100% playable. I finally completed the game. Thanks so much. All the previous releases crashed at one point or another.
You are the man exophase. This sort of shit would take ages to do and even though its probably a hobby to you thousands of people would be reaping the rewards. Keep it up.
*can find bios on pirates bay*
thank you….just kidding, it’s not really Exophase tee hee
can someone please tell me how to get the cheats to work. i read the readme but i am apparently retarded and cant figure it out
yup i too need cheat help couldnt find in the README.and when i play minish cap i get bad jump error after a while. ps i typed this on my psp for no reason
EXOPHASE, NEVER LOSE UR HOMEBREW, U ARE RIGHT NOW PROGRAMMING AN AWSOME APPLICATION FOR DEVELOPMENT HISTORY, NOONE CAN DO SHIT TO TAKE UR NAME OF HISTORY BABY :D, NO MATTER THE SWEARING (FROM RETARD PEOPLE), EVERYONE MESSES WITH A GREAT JOB LIKE THIS IS JUST A RETARD
where can i get the bios image from to run thisnot having any luck finding 1
try the psp hacks forums..I’ve seen a link there.
if not then try google search…good luck =)
Looks like you did alot of work. Thanks alot
TY
im sorry to sound like a noob but pls where the roms go pls
ty any how figered it out
If you get this far down the message list exophase, thanks for letting us disable the analog stick. Although I bought a new (2.60) psp which i upgraded to 2.71sec I will use the old psp as a movie player, mp3 player and thanks to you a gba console, you are still the king as far as I am concerned and I will accept no substitutes.
the tiny chao garden doesnt seem to work on sonic advance.
@Kenny B:
dude, i was the only one bringing up guilty gear, and seeing it crashes the whole emulator, i think that’s something worth noting. i mean, id understand if it were a slight bug, like not seeing some almost significant detail, but not being able to play game, and locking up my console at the character select screen is no fun at all. I wasnt complaining either, i was just giving Exo a heads up. I do appreciate what he has accomplished for the PSP brew scene, so i thought reporting a bug may be somewhat use to further develop his emulator.
