A few days ago I had discovered a way to get the popular psp emulator "PPSSPP" running on the Xbox One Console. I wrote a tutorial for how to get it running on the Xbox One which you can still find here
https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-run-psp-emulator-on-the-xbox-one.467686/

However installing it was anything but easy as it required you to download different pieces of software, mess around with settings,dive into a shell, and re-compile PPSSPP from plain source code. I am pleased to announce that I have successfully built a .appx package for easy installation. Now you can install PPSSPP in just a few minutes. I'll link to videos below at the end of the tutorial to showcase what the performance is like.


[1.] Download ProjectPegasus
https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/raw/master/ProjectPegasusSetup.exe

[2.] Select "PPSSPP" once it finishes downloading, go ahead and extract the archive. Go to your Xbox One console and restart it into developer mode

[3.] Click on settings and you will see a menu that looks like this

Make sure and Tick the option that says "Enable Xbox Device Portal"
In addition you make sure "Require authentication to access Xbox Device Portal" is checked you will want to set up a username and a password.


[4.] Once finished go back to Dev Home and make note of your Xbox IP Address along with the port number listed at the bottom right corner it will look something like 192.168.37.8:11224 (Yours may be different) Open up your web browser and type in https:// followed by your IP and port number so for example https://192.168.37.8:11224alternatively you can also enter https://XboxOne:11224 for example. Once you log in you may receive a warning about the security certificate. Go ahead and proceed anyways.

[5.] You will now be greeted with a menu that looks like this

From Here it's rather simple just click Add and choose file

You will then select the .appx file that you extracted from the archive earlier.

PPSSPP Has no required dependencies so you can go ahead and install.


PPSSPP will now deploy and install onto your Xbox One

To play your backups just load them off a USB thumdrive or external storage device.
If you ever run into any issues with save states just uninstall and reinstall and it will work fine.

Thanks to the wonderful team at PPSSPP for making this UWP Port without your hard work this would not be possible.


NOTE: To enable full screen go to Settings --> Display and Sound --> Video output
Then deselect the option that says "Apps can add a border" Credit goes to

how the hell can i access fullscreen? When i want to play,there is a black border on the right and and the bottom.

And someone plays with the config, or just leave it as it is?

theres an option in xbox setting regarding allowing apps to add borderes, just unselect it and you'll get fullscreen

Thanks for the info. I'll update the tutorial.

thanks to you two

what i have found wrong with this port so far

freezes when you create settings for individual games
should have full screen by default
there's a save game limit (verified) - had to reinstall ppsspp because it wouldnt let me save anymore
settings dont save all the time and go back to default - might be that save limit issue
remap the b button so we can use it as a O button


edit every game i threw at this emulator plays except 6 so far outta the 40 or so games i tested

this is amazing! thank you!

I just run my backups from an external HDD. Internal might have issues I don't know.

Tekken 6 (USA) runs fine but with frame skipping, also please remap system menu from B button, it's really annoying.

Honestly, I'd Just map it (B) as LT. That's what I did and it Works fine for me. And You guys have the source code for ppsspp. You can do it yourself

Sure thing anyway, thanks for you work!

No problem. There's still much more to come. Currently me and a few others are working on a project that will bring PS1 Emulation to Xbox One. https://github.com/wiired24/psx-box

I'm also interested in Dreamcast as well.

 

[wakabayashy]

dreamcast, the dream

 

[wiired24]

dreamcast, the dream

It's my dream to bring Dreamcast over to the Xbox One but it could be awhile. Got to get psx-box finished first

 

[wakabayashy]

yep^^

Thanks for the feedback will update the thread

I tested mega man powered up, It works very well with occasional slowdown (I am guessing frame skip could fix this) and no online support (considering that ppsspp doesn't currently support online)
