I really, really, REALLY want to play Castlevania SotN. I tried to play it on my N3DS but I would get like 20fps. Does anyone know of the best settings to increase it, if at all possible? And for that matter, the settings for any emulator?
Hmm not sure about settings, I think at some point Retroarch was supposed to be the best emulator for ps1 but last time I checked they scrapped ps1 from it... I might be wrong though.
turn audio sync off then i get around 50-60 fps
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
oh and just wondering are u using the cia version of the psx emulator?
I use the .cia version too, that game just can't run at a decent speed even with cfw on N3DS!

I'm running the psx emulator on a N3DS. I fiddled around with the settings and ended up making it worse. Turned off audio and V sync and now it's at 7 fps. I can't do the .cia, I'm on 11.4. Could it be a problem with the BIOS as well?
Bruh get the cia and only turn off the audio, not sync thats a little speed up but no sound AT ALL. Oh and delete you retroarch.cfg file in retroarchs folder
For best results place PSVita like so:
now you have the best setup for playing PSX games on your 3DS
now you have the best setup for playing PSX games on your 3DS
I think the newest release was in March 2017 (1.5?), but apparently you need BIOS SCHP 5000/5001/5002 to make it runat 55-60fps.
I found a link to the .cia in a thread, so I couldn't tell you if there is a .3dsx file.
In the mean time, I think the (retroarch 3DS) thread should still have the steps to get decent fps, which includes disabling audio synch, setting one of the audio drivers to 'nearest', etc,.

The steps were removed, but start start with auido synch=disabled and getting the audio driver set to 'nearest from the sound resampler. Play around with the Mhz, frame skip, etc,. It won't be perfect, but sighax is out, so maybe you'll get .cia permissions Soon™©®?

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version? -
@
Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
