PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

[mrmagicm]

Thanks a lot SaulFabre! Does Thunderforce V now work after passing the first boss with Lightrec on?
(there was a BSOD just after passing it)

Not sure since i didn't tried that game, but if the game still doesn't work with Lightrec, try using the 'new' PPC Dynarec.

It is probably the best archival format though for PSX games.

Not really. Redump only uses bin+cue for PSX games, which is probably the most reliable set these days.

some people probably will not want to have to modify/patch their (clean 1:1) game(s) to be able to play them on the emulator.

They don't need to delete their clean image, just patch a copy, like they would do with a translation.

Unfortunately, the issue with CCD+IMG+SUB won't be fixed (https://github.com/xjsxjs197/WiiSXRX_2022/issues/139).

Thats why i added my change for remove support for CCD/IMG/SUB in my latest build.

Yes, I know @SaulFabre. I was just explaining, in case people still try to advocate for CCD/IMG/SUB support in Wiistation.

WiiStation since a few builds ago it has support for loading .SBI files for PAL games which are LibCrypt encrypted.
I just removed the function for load IMG, CCD and SUB files.
SBI loading function remains untouched, so you should still be able to play LibCrypt games if you have the correct .sbi files.

Yep i started playing ffix pal spanish version with its .sbi in the same folder and runs perfect

I needed to delete about 15 games that were in img format, but I already downloaded some new ones in bin/cue
What impresses me most about this latest update is how great the emulator speed is, most games run at 59.80 fps

what are the exceptions? Sillent Hill w/dither? Tekken3?

Bloody Roar 2, G-Police are two exceptionally heavy games that still run around 40fps. Most interlaced games without interlaced will also run slower.

Tekken 3 runs 44 ~49 fps without interlaced

do you have some settings changed or enabled?
(Ex., are you using Old or New GPU and did you enable Dithering?)

Dithering off
Filters off
Old gpu

Tekken 3 runs quite well with the new gpu. Better than with the old one and without using interlaced too.

Last time i tried the previous build, SOTN run fine on old GPU and buttery smooth, but on NEW GPU, the jitter/stutter came back at full force XP

I don't think you needed to do that. If the dumps were good and there were no audio tracks, the img file should be identical to the bin file (same hashes).

 

[MeXen]

Did some test with the big one, Tekken 3, and let me see:

Old GFX - Uninterleaced, runs at 50-55 fps and dips to 45fps, 60fps Interleaced, jitter and stutter is still there on this one.

New GFX - pretty much the same, but with more jittery and stutter (does not affect audio)

Overall New GFX does sadly bring back the jitter/scroll stutter at full force, particularly VERY noticable on any game that runs at 60fps, whereas old GFX doesnt have the stutter, seems the former hasnt been optmized for games that run over 30fps in engine XP.

SOTN still runs with stutter with dithering on both, but pretty much perfect on Old GFX. (with no dither)

Seems that all games around both modes got a speed boost, but smooth playback still in an issue on heavy titles like good old tekken3.

By the way, i just realized, this is gonna be the 2th Anniversary of this project!

I was already thinking about exchanging these files for bin/cue, it just motivated me more

Guess I'll stick with the older builds for a while

i see you only have CHD files. Don't worry, i didn't remove CHD support here.

 

[CheeseBurgerwithLove]

I've a silly question.

Is it necessary to have a BIOS (SCPH 1001.bin) to load games that require it?

Can't I use another one like SCPH-101 for NTSC games and SCPH-102 for PAL games?
