I've never had any problems with it. Super Mario World works fine on it, and as does the other games I would play on there...if I haven't already beaten them, like super mario rpg.

Personuser:Give me a min and I'll post a vid where it's at.

Also, from the screenshot it gives me, that's rev 4. I've been using r5b3. I'll try TYL but the main thing for me is being able to run SA1 games nice (with frameskip if necessary) and normal games nice with NO FRAMESKIP WHATSOEVER.

It should be the same.

And you should be able to see it know.

I run TYL MECM (MECM is an important edit) and it runs normal SNES games fullspeed.

I'll give you my config file for it with the speed tweaks I use implemented... stick this in the PROFILES folder before you load any ROMs.

I updated the wiki, cleaning it up a bit and adding some alternatives and notes.

That should help out a bit.

I'll test it out a little later. Gotta do some school.

also, DS, what GPSP are you using? I've found the best to be gpsp kai 3.4 test 3. It even runs 32MB roms like mother 3 correctly, so try that if you aren't using it already.

Ugh, the latest gpSP-J likes to have minor graphical glitches (flashing sprites ftl) with Mario & Luigi (Superstar Saga?). May have to try out Kai.

Make sure you get the exact rev I mentioned. I've tried four already and unofficial gpsp kai 3.4 test 3 runs the best by far. Hell, it even runs the background effects in wario land 4 full speed, at least in the levels I tried (I know this is a common GPSP issue).

Just a general note i ran into yesterday....

Don't use the BIOS option for RACE!PSP. It breaks more things than it fixes e.g. Metal Slug 1st and 2nd Mission, Puyo Pop and Mini Puzzle Bobble all break when the emulator attempts to utilise the NGP BIOS.

Er, which one is that?

It's not an enable/disable option but if NPBIOS.BIN is in the same directory as the RACE!PSP EBOOT.PBP it'll try to use it. I always set up emulators with their appropriate BIOS if i can when i use them and was tearing my hair out trying to figure out why Metal Slug wouldn't work......remove the BIOS and it does. Same for multiple other games. Bios support is sketchy to say the least (which i suppose was warned about in the readme so it's my own fault...)

I meant which emulator?

I went to add the note to the wiki and was all "Waitwhat".

The NeoGeo Pocket and Pocket Color emulator is RACE! PSP - >http://psp.akop.org/race
