Homebrew PPSSPP discussion and testing thread

Hatsune Miku: Project Diva 2nd :
The Game runs fine without any problems, it even loads the 3D model of Miku and all the menu options with a normal speed without needing frameskip

However, once you select a song, the game freezes and can not play

it is strange that the game does not stop, it freezes on the screen but if you leave a 2 or 3 minutes on that screen the music will end and the game will return to normal in the result screen, it's very strange.

[EDIT]
After trying some songs one of them started perfectly ( Magnet ), without frameskip, it's perfectly playable, but it's hard to say how to make the game not hang on the loading screen

[EDIT 2]
Sometimes when you start a song, the game can hang on a white screen for up to 3 minutes and only then start the music, but when it starts it runs perfectly

This game works very strange in the emulator

Zenonia :
The game runs well, but have some sound/music glitches, it's perfect playable without needing frameskip

God of War Chains of Olumpus :
Freezes after the first CG, unplayable.

Kingdom Hearts - Birth by Sleep :
It's very playable with frameskip 1 or 2, but there is an extreme lag in scenes with many things rolling at the same time on the screen, it is very difficult to play but would not say impossible.

MegaMan: Maverick Hunter X :
it's perfect playable without needing frameskip ( but i recommend frameskip 1 )

there is lag in some small areas of the game, but nothing that gets in the way, with the exception of boss Boomer Kuwanger, for some reason when facing this boss the game has an extreme lag, but nothing injurious

I cleared this game 100% smoothly on my Wii U.



PS: Sorry for my english, Brazilian here.

[EDIT]
Need for Speed: Carbon Own the City
Red and Black Screen, Sound it's ok, but impossible to play.

Does anyone want to make a new compatibility list with the feedbacks that the people gave in this post? It is a bit annoying to download a game that does not work being someone else has already tested and reported here that does not work but the post eventually lost

The old list has not updated for a long time and does not detail well the operation of each game

Has anything changed at all?

 

[Ghassen-ga]

Any new updates?

 

[wolf-snake]

Wasn't this Emulator just a Proof of concept? so i wouldn't be too surpriced if development for this Emu would be done, or moved over to the Switch.

 

[SuperDan]

UPDATE !! FOR XMAS LOL !!

The Switch isn't similar to the Wii U in any particular way. They would probably use the Android version as base for that instead.

 

[Gultigargar]

Got it to work but how do I load back to the menu to load up a save state?

Curious to know

 

[Impossible_Igntiz]

Someone should hop back into this and try to update it

 

[SuperDan]

Maybe in 2023

PPSSPPP on WiiU was done by @aliaspider maybe if we could kindly ask him...

Please do! I hope that person doesn't mind it much, it's a hot demand right now and i would LOVE to play PSP games on my Wii U using a usb-hid wired controller if the feature is possible.

I don't know if that's a good idea..

 

[piratesephiroth]

Yeah, I wouldn't bother the guy. He hasn't released the source code so I suppose he's either still working on it or intends to work on the near future.

You can just always remind him about the project, usually alot of developers tend to forget like old people.

Still would avoid doing that, might piss him off.

Not a great idea he is very temperamental and gets pissed off easily by people making requests of him. It's the reason why he abandoned retroarch wiiu for a while. All because people were not being patient and kept asking for things to be added ect.

He did? wow... while both the PSP and 3DS continues to get homebrew support lol i do understand they get easily triggered but it didn't stop Switch homebrew devs to stop coding just because they got into a little bitch-y fit no offense, i mean there are times that i do really feel the pressure getting breathed down your neck but it's the consequences you get when developing something that'll interest the end/noob user more than some corny silly little pop the balloons in the night sky type of games that no one never asked for and certainly no way in hell is ever gonna get the popularity you thought it'll get.

Just for an example of what he is like. When retroarch wiiu first came out the zx spectrum core would not load I simply asked him if it would be one day possible for it to run and he replied all in capital letters

(I DO NOT DO REQUESTS)

Any other dev would have said yes or no to that question or I don't know or something along those lines.

Yeouch!... I see, so he's one of THOSE developers.

I've had my fair share of those types during the PSP and PlayStation 3 hacking scene days. Probably, all the guy wants is probably some donation money for all his hard work and felt pressured of having to do all this for free why we just sit back and sip our tropical drinks while he did everything on his own.
