As the title said im on 3.50 fw using TN-V11, iv also tried using ARK-2 but none of those CFW works for me to run PS1/PSX roms, ether as isos or eboot/fboot, because everytime i start the game i go to a black screen then i get an error saying "The game could not be started (80010014)", i swear to god im going cracy with this, can anyone tell me if thats not possible on my FW? because im almost about to throw the towel on this console, i had a PSP2000 and i was in heaven, i got this cause i saw a lot of ppl saying that the screen and all games were gorgeous so i said well, if it can do all what i can on my PSP plus has better hardware and screen then ill go for it, but iv had it for a week now and im srsly thinking about selling this junk.... well technically is not a junk but it wasnt worth the investment considering i cant do everything i could on my PSP :(

have you tried using popsloader plugin? i actually havent tried using ps1 stuff with my vita tv yet but i've seen that error on psp before and i had to use a previous pops firmware to work using popsloader.

Have you tried that iso site? They have working PSX EBOOTs on there; I'm sure of it. Just google "PSX2PSP ISOS" and you should get a good selection to choose from to try.

Im trying to use that now with ARK-2 Bubbles, but i havent figure out yet how to run plugins with that but at least with ARK-2 i manage to run my psx game but with no sound :(

Well i had to move back to TN-V11 to be able to run PSX games, but i had to use a plugin for it to make it easy, the plugin is game2vhbl ver2 and what it does is that it redirect tn-v11 fw to look for apps and psx games on the psp/vhbl folder instead of the game folder, now my next project is to install psp game bubles on my vita.

Im done now, i have installed every bubble for my homebrews and psp isos and left TN-V11 just to run PSX games since that cant be done from bubbles sadly (YET) sadly :( so ill be writing a full tutorial soon of how to hack 3.5x vitas including custom bubbles and all, because it was a real pain in the ars to get all this done. I dont know what happened to the Vita sceners but most of the guides out there are ether incomplete or out of date with too many gaps in them, so ill help others with a guide so they dont have to spend so much time on this like i did :)

Ok, but you have multiple bubbles. Did you just clone the same demo?

Yeah, the bubble is base on the game only to run, but the config goes directly into the database, to clarify, u could have no base game if u wanted and still make a buble appear just wont execute anything hehe, ill make a guide for all that pretty soon :)

i feel like sound is fine but psx emulation through TN-V11 is kind of slow on most games or at least the ones iv tried, megamans are playable but i tried to play FF7 and it was impossible, when i entered into a fight... my vita pretty much crashed lol

So what did you modify to use the same base game for multiple bubbles?

    It could get banned from PSN but you can change your ID I think?

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    might install ysmenu first

    Try Wood firmware
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    but why choose it over ysmenu @Psionic Roshambo?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    bc im stupid?

    yea ik im stupid

    good night
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
