PSX4ALL Wiz (01-08-2009) (PSX emu for Wiz)

Posted by Kojote on 2009-08-01 13:58:07

PSX4ALL hits the Wiz!

Release notes:

Hello from ZodTTD,

I'm the lead developer of psx4all. I got a Wiz yesterday and compiled my latest sources for the Wiz.

Some notes on running:
- The psx bios should be titled scph1001.bin (all lowercase!) and placed in the same directory as the included GPE.
- To exit the emulator press both volume buttons.
- To enter the menu system while in a game press L+R+SELECT+START
- Framerate counter is all messed up, especially with frameskip on.
- There's no framelimiting, but I don't think it's required at this point. :P

Features:
- Save states sorta work. ;)
- It's faster than psx4wiz (which is a port of my older sources) on here. I need to contact Hardyx and see if he would like to join forces. ;)
- Sound works but probably really choppy. It's off by default.

Thanks,
ZodTTD
