/emugen/ - Emulation General

I wasn't talking about what he posts on twitter, you moron

Just go back to byuu's forums, m8

To prevent Squarepusher and mudlord from reading it.

byuu is seriously paranoid about mudlord infiltrating his forum too.

floating.muncher.se/byuu/uncooperative.html

I wonder if byuu has seen this document

Anybody know how to fix this graphics problem in PPSSPP? Tried looking it up, but only found unrelated issues. Tried changing almost every setting and couldn't fix it.

working as intended

This guy is just upset that byuu doesn't like his fork.

So, I got latest CEMU and Xeno X downloaded. Couple of questions before I start - has anyone here played it for longer periods of time? Does it actually run without crashing? Is there lot of sound issues later on? Just curious before I start to spend time on it, otherwise could as well wait for development.

The following packages have been kept back:
> libretro-mednafen-psx mpv
???

>CEMU
Closed
Source
Garbage

What other options there are? Mind if I remind you are on /emug/.

contribute to decaf and make it great again(for the first time)

Yeah development could faster and more beneficial if CEMU was opensource. Maybe they are afraid of lawsuits somehow?

There are none. Cemu is great.

when RA 1.40?

5 hours

how do you know this? are are you just fucking with me?

Source?

I understand what Vulkan does for PS and N64, but what does it do for the other cores in general?

Is there a real reason to use it?

It takes less operations to get images on the screen which reduces latency a bit.

So, where do you get PC games? I don't have a GGn account ; _ ;

by how much? I didnt think it was bad initially, in fact I thought it was pretty good

steam

PC gaming is dead

If you mean older games, just google up their GOG releases or check Isozone

Oh mai, super sexy :D

I don't even remember, but I think it's something like 5-10ms

Considering 60fps, each frame should be around 16ms.

So less than a frame?

Yeah, but that gives you more time to get input before you have to render each frame.

I was expecting a big(er) improvement. Input latency is around 100ms/6 frames or so.

Still, that's a 5-10% decrease, I guess.

Just....WHY?

What's the general state of affairs with PS2 emulation? Is it still improving, and is it likely to reach Dolphin levels of refinement?

I've been contemplating whether to by an old Phat console with Free McBoot, or just go for a powerful PC that can emulate.

He pays for this shit?
There's way better stuff out there for free

>Is it still improving
Yeah but it's likely gonna slow down.

>and is it likely to reach Dolphin levels of refinement
That would imply Dolphin is massively better than PCSX2 which it isn't, the main difference is that the most popular games aren't broken in it unlike PCSX2.

>I've been contemplating whether to by an old Phat console with Free McBoot, or just go for a powerful PC that can emulate.
Get both, a softmodded console is bothersome enough that you're likely to just go for emulation whenever possible but there's a bunch of games that are just that troublesome to emulate that you'll want a real console.

>a softmodded console is bothersome
How so?

Hacking a PS2 is as easy as connecting the drive to your PC and flashing an image to it.
After that it's just installing games.

At that point it's just turning on the PS2, launching Open PS2 Loader, and selecting your game.

>How so?
You have to juggle with several ways of playing games at some point then you have compatibility mode bullshit with less than accurate recommendation out there
And then there's the whole burnt disc shit that you're inevitably gonna try when you can't take that one issue / difference coming from OPL in a game you're playing.

Compared to a softmodded XBOX or Wii a softmodded PS2 is fucking annoying to use.

How about an early model PS3 that can play PS2 games natively instead?

Haven't they all YLOD'd by now?

You're gonna spend an hilarious amount of money (unless you get lucky) on something that's very likely to YLOD and still get the same problem since I'm pretty sure OPL is also the way to play backed up PS2 games.

I still find a few for sale, are they that unreliable?

mudlord actually did it

the absolute madman

torrentfreak.com/denuvo-removed-from-doom-after-game-gets-cracked-161208/

We need these obsessive personalities to create functional emulators.

Oh well. I wish they didn't stray when they inevitably become pseudo-e-celebs.

The very first gen PS3s are a step away from being as unreliable as 1st gen x360s

this is useful info. Likely games I'd play;
FFX, MGS2/3, Okami, SOTC, DQVIII/V, DC2, DMC
Is emulation better for these?

nice emulation related post

mudlord is an emudev you idiot

what does he have to do with doom

For FFX and MGS2 I'd say the PC port is worth considering (FFX is the HD version though so if you don't like the new models emulation is better, MGS2 has a new very recent fix that easily makes it the best version) otherwise real console for MGS2 (emulated looks nice during gameplay but cutscenes are beyond fucked and the only fix adds slowdown over the whole game) and emulated for FFX bonus points if the backwards boss bug still happens that shit is hilarious

SOTC is only worth emulating if your PC is really powerful

Okami still is somewhat borked with emulation if you upscale (incorrect filter and tons of Z-fighting))so not that worth emulating.

MGS3 got fixed for the most part recently in PCSX2 and even has a 60fps patch, definitely worth emulating.

I don't have firsthand experience with those but DQVIII/V are generally posted as an example of how mùuch better emulated PS2 games look compared to real hardware so I'd say they emulate well.

DMC is forever borked (area around subtitle and lifebar stays at native regardless of what you set PCSX2 to)

DC2 I couldn't tell you at all

There's been a lot of major improvements recently, including mipmapping which helps with a lot of stuff.

Thanks, I didn't know MGS2 got fixed for PC. I've ever seen a healthy torrent for it.
Perhaps there'll be another collection edition for PS4/Steam

FFX - it's annoying about the new face models in the HD version - I hear there's a mod trying to fix it, but I might not have noticed if nobody here pointed it out.

Really the Dragon Quest games and DC2 are the only ones on my backlog, so I'm most likely to play them out of the bunch

You could emulate the Wii version of okami.

*I've never seen a healthy torrent

>>Thanks, I didn't know MGS2 got fixed for PC. I've ever seen a healthy torrent for it.

I'm in a good mood

theisozone.com/downloads/pc/windows-games/metal-gear-solid-2-substance-pc/

just downloaded and install, ignore anything else then use this

github.com/VFansss/mgs2-v-s-fix

forgot my webm for it in action

thank you based user

I hear it's missing the rice paper filter. Does that matter?

Where the hell do I get 360 roms from? I just wanted to try out Xenia for fun but instead I've just learned that my popup blocker doesn't do shit

actually i see that part 1 of the download doesn't work for me, only part 2

No the Wii version is cancer and has shit controls.

firedrop.com/2ed4dd5c90a40360

that gives me the same message - maybe i'll try it another time on another pc

if emulating, you can map wiimote to a controller, right?

you cant download both parts at the same time if that is what you are doing

aaaah i see

>if emulating, you can map wiimote to a controller, right?
I'm not sure it still works quite as well as the regular version, mapping it to the mouse also kinda works but it becomes kinda shitty to have to go back to the mosue every 5 seconds in latter fights.

It will probably never reach Dolphin because Dolphin supports texture swapping and gives access to the depth buffer for modders. Aside from that it's pretty much better than Dolphin.

It can't even emulate Ratchet and Clank properly
That's like if Dolphin couldn't play Mario Sunshine or Windwaker

All of these games work good emulated and the pc ports are worse than the ps2 ports.

Is 1.4.0 out yet?

6 hours

That's your fault then because those games have been fixed. Wind Waker had bugs until recently too.

I say pcsx2 is better because it has more games to play than Mario and Zelda. Dolphin is a joke emulator, what was the point?

stop

just for a quick sanity check;

When Wii emulates SNES games via Virtual Console, is it outputting at 480p or not?

>It's your fault an emulator can't render textures correctly

It's your fault you're not up to date.

I just downloaded the latest nightly

what exactly got fixed for the pc version?

Setupper builded from scratch!
Automatic 2.0 official patcher! (thanks year-2000 Konami!)
Set up your custom resolution in a matter of seconds
16:9 and 16:10 widescreen support (thanks to nemesis2000)
Audio fix automatically applied (Thanks Creative labs!)
Automatic fix for every model of vga adapter (Nvidia or ATI or Intel)
Semi-automatic laptop fix needed (there are some conflicts with internal gpu adapter)
Xbox 360 Controller supported with my personal best custom configuration!
Controller vibration and trigger functionality restored (thanks to XInput Plus project by 0dd14!)
Graphic setup, if you have a crappy pc and can't affort to max out a 15 years old game.
SMAA Anti-Aliasing added! (Thanks to SweetFX!)
Less than 13 MB.
You don't like it? Change it yourself!

cooool

PC has nogaems. Hence emulation

bump

...

Then you're even more retarded than previously thought.

Lotta dedication to a broken emulator

If I had to hazard a guess, it's because you're not scaling by an integer. I have almost no experience with PPSSPP though, so I really don't know.
