ROM Hack [Request] Playstation Forwarder Creator for the New 3DS

[Deleted User]

@Sakitoshi, do you think you could create an Playstation forwarder for the New 3DS that uses the PCSX ReARMed Core from Retroarch as a basis to install CIA?
Please take a look at it.

I had it planed, but after seeing how poor the performance was, decided to not do it.
I haven't followed how psone emulation (well, emulation in general) has evolved on new 3ds since then, so I guess I can try again to see if now is worth it or still not.

As much as I would love this I gotta say 1.3.3 is still the best version for pcsx rearmed and they are 1.6.9 now. The latest version of retroarchs' pcsx rearmed just crashes after a couple seconds in the xmb. Unfortunately not much work or focus has been put into pcsx rearmed.

I had forgot to report, but I was able to build from source the latest release of pcsx-rearmed (commit c7dde5e) a few days ago and the performance hasn't got any better.
Most games run at 50-55 fps and while for some that could be playable it is definitively not a good experience.
I refuse to release a forwarder creator if performance is so bad.

for those curious I built the source with devkitarm r45 and libctru 1.1.0* and created a cia using asdolo's retroarch mod (using the same devkitarm and libctru versions).

*with a tweak to correct a bug where if you enter sleep mode with the game suspended you would not be able to wake the 3ds up.

Could you post a link to that cia or is the same performance as 1.3.3 either way? And is that 50-55 fps with or w/o audio?

I can't post the cia because it also contains the game, is self contained like the cias made by my forwarder creators.

didn't noticed any improvement over 1.3.3, tested with tales of phantasia in pbp format and scph1001 bios, around 55fps with audio stuttering because of the framerate.
tested turning off audio sync among other things but nothing changed.

Thank you for looking into this.
