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

The same nothingness is happening. Opened my browser on my PC and went to ip show on xboxone and still nothing.

If you followed all these steps correctly it would work. It has for everyone else.

@ElijahZAwesome @kingtut @dominater01 @DrakeLyon

Can someone help this poor soul?

What do you get when you type the ip address on your pc? Can you get a screenshot? or just a photo with a phone. Also did you at least go to the dev mode screen? Are you having problems with loading the dev mode screen, or opening the portal on your pc?

I haven't been able to connect my browser on my PC with my XBox One. And I can't post a pic for some reason. File too large. I'm trying to do this on google chrome. It says this site can't be reached the connection was reset. And at the bottom it says waiting for xboxone. I opened the setting for widows defender and excluded :C/Users/Public/Homebrew.

Can you try to connect using edge instead of chrome? I know a lot of people do not like edge, but it has no plugins at first installation, so it could be a good indicator.

I tried that and safari with the same outcome.

 

[kingtut]

I tried that and safari with the same outcome.

This means that the problem is not with a plugin, I tell you what. do you get a screen that says website is not safe when you try to connect with your pc?

I don't believe so, I need to check that when I get back home.

Edit: it doesn't say it's unsafe

Edit Edit: when I wait for it to load it just ends up saying
"This site can't be reached
192.168.1 took too long to respond."

 

[WodsonKun]

Hey, can you compile it to ARM too? I want play PPSSPP on my Lumia too...

 

[The3rdknuckles]

Update it's now working. Thanks guys!

 

[kingtut]

Update it's now working. Thanks guys!

If you do not mind me asking, what did you do to fix it? It could help us with future troubleshooting

Maybe my Dev account was too new? I just waited a few days and it decided to connect.

if it fixes the circle button glitch, that is all I need for now.

hey @wiired24 , were you the one who compile the ppsspp uwp code before? I am having problems with trying to compile it now.

 

[dominater01]

im still having a game save limit on this emulator how am i the only one

 

[wiired24]

hey @wiired24 , were you the one who compile the ppsspp uwp code before? I am having problems with trying to compile it now.

Yes I was the one who compiled it from source code and released the .appx The O button issue is well known and so is the solution which is to just map O to LT
@dominater01 that is because you have your PSP Games on your internal HDD. I had the same issue at one point, but then I put my PSP games on an external drive and I have never had any issue since with save limits.

I am in talks with Hygard now to find out what the fixes exactly are and to see if he would want to offer fixes for some of the present issues (O button Problem) with the emulator. If and when he does I'll update the release

I know the solution of mapping lT to circle. But It feels awkward for me.

That's strange, hmm... I haven't had that happen to me. The only difference with my setup is that the format is in .ISO

1. Post some output of the errors you're getting and I'll try to help.

2. I understand for some it feels awkward but for now it's the best fix we have
