PS1 emulation HAS BEEN SAVED. THIS IS NOT A DRILL
Warping and jittering has been removed. Now PS1 games look great in HD. It's WIP, and is getting updates. Silent Hill glitches have recently been fixed.

It's not "saved". It never really needed saving. This shit just an addition to a solid foundation that has already existed for years. It's inauthentic, anyways.

THANK YOU
SOMEONE IN THIS THREAD HAS SOME FUCKING SENSE
Fuck your shit emulators. Here's how you choose an emulator for certain systems.
1. Go to http://mednafen.fobby.net/
2. Look at the list of systems mednafen emulates
3. Is the system you want to emulate on that list? If so, MEDNAFEN IS YOUR BEST CHOICE.
End of goddamn story.
>>337338472
>>337338694
Mednafen is a great base.
But it has no Hardware rendering. No HD capabilities. And it can't use these neat new features as well. It needs those to really compete.
SD PS1 can only look good on a CRT. Guess what? No one has those anymore. If you're on an LCD HD upscaling is the way to go.

>It needs those to really compete.
Mednafen can play games without requiring a shitton of hacks just to load a game in the first place. Other emulators need to catch up.
>>337338838
Anon, furries have always been a thing.
>>337338838
Those faces do look like he's getting fucked.
>>337338053
That isnt actually warping.
In Silent Hill 1 Henry's face was put under a spell by dahlia gillespie and turned into a screen saver

LCDs just can't display low resolution content well. It has to scale it by nearest or bilinear. Pixilated or blurry: take your pic.
HD content for HD screens.

One step forward, two steps back. Yay! Now I can pretend every level in Crash Team Racing is crumbling to pieces behind me.
>>337339397
You don't have to use the widescreen patch, though.
>>337339313
I wish. Indie games are primitve pixel art or even more primitive 3D.
>>337339397
You can not use the widescreen anon. It really shouldn't be used for PS1 anyways since it's a weak console and cut corners often by just rendering what is displayed on screen.
Last update: 2013
Explain.
>>337339430
The guy who made these videos should've done them without it, the hack seems very poorly made.
>>337339268
It was always pixelated blurry shit, even on SDTVs. Pull your head out of your ass and take off your rose-tinted goggles.
"AITCH DEE" is such a fucking overused shit concept that it's not even worth discussing any more. Love how my fucking 70" "HD"TV and fuckhuge "HD" monitor displays plain goddamn DVDs and other "shit" content just fine because I'm not dumb enough to put my eyes 1" from the screen and obsess over pixels.
>>337338084
Remember how textures in PS1 games had a tendancy to shake depending on the angle and how close you were? That's the Z buffer issue.
I know Colony Wars had it when you neared one of those massive space stations.

Work in progress and being improved all the time. When it works, it's gorgeous. Straight lines finally in a PS1 game.
>audio glitches
The guy is playing this in pcsxr, which doesn't have the best sync ever, on a shitty 3rd world PC. It can't really handle it. A better PC won't have those audio problems.
i use the newest ePSXe + PeteOGL2 plugin and every game that i played worked fine.
>>337337607
Holy shit, I wish I was even half that good at Crash racing
>>337339882
shit i meant to ask >>337338694
The warping and jittering never bothered me.
Odd and unusual? Sure. But I guess it never bothered me.
Also, how did it take this long? Wasn't it a texture rendering issue that was never properly addressed on the PS1?
>>337339882
Mednafen is a bitchy little mistress that only likes 3 Bios, and only likes games in bin/cue format.
Ensure the cuesheet matches the game files. Sometimes shitty rips don't double check that, or have absolute file values (c:/files/etc/mygame.bin).
Next use these bios:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/7d5tbargr0iq2x8/RetroArch+BIOS.zip
You can use a GUI frontend for Mednafen, or use RetroArch, which includes a port of Mednafen with some minor new features
>>337340040
It's funny since he likely plays CTR a lot. It's mostly about keeping a boost at all times. He is terrible in any of the other games.
>>337340139
The PS1 isn't a true 3D system, and takes short cuts. the n64 is the first console to do 3D the correct way.
>Also, how did it take this long?
PS1 emulation has been pretty shit until recently. The "King of PS1 emulation" was epxe, a closed source mediocre emulator. It was "good enough" so people didn't bother using something else or making soemthing better. It stiffled development for years.
>>337338838
Furries have been a thing since the 50s in Japan, at least.
>>337340263
I've been using ePSXe for years. What's a better alternative?
>ctrl + xebra
>0 results
ah i see, /v/ is full of idiots as usual
xebra is all you need for almost perfect PSX emulation
>>337340373
epsxe is okay, but nothing special. It mostly plays catch up with other emulators.
mednafen has nice accuracy, but zero enhancements.
The libretro port of Mednafen for RetroArch has software upscaling, cpu over clocking (less slowdowns, more fps) and few other features.
PCSXR now has this texture correction feature.
There's no one KING of emulation now. Ideally, the best one would be to take Mednafen, or an emulator of similar accuracy, create a Hardware rendering for it, and add all the other features of other PS1 emulators in one package.
>>337337607
wow man Vagrant's story's graphics still hold up really well.
>>337340401
It's decent, but mednafen psx is a bit more accurate and developed. And it has typical closed source japware GUI which is annoying.
>>337340040

It was a late PS1 game. I would have LOVED to have seen it delayed and pushed to PS2.

What does Xebra do that others don't?
>>337337847
This. holy shit are PCucks the most pathetic people on the planet or what?
>>337340694
>>337340654
Mednafen is open source and gets more udpates than Xebra.
I wonder, can something be done with fog?
Mostly talking about N64 here.
>>337337607
>almost completely avoids all wumpa fruit until the end of lap 2
It's like he doesn't even want to go fast.
>>337340794
You'd have to hack the games for that directly.
In that case, it just makes more sense to make a new engine and rebuild the game in that. They recently did that with Turok the Dino Hunter Remaster. It has option to remove fog entirely.

>>337341771
>Does it work on ePSXe?
No. Epsxe has its own implimentation of these features, and these are actually superior to it.
>If not then into the trash it goes.
Don't support closed source profit-ware. It's not good for the health of the emulation community.
>>337341771

Fuck off.
>>337341906
>>337341968
Nice to see you /g/ hippies over here.
>>337342072
Closed soruce jew ware only stiffles emulation development. It was the reason in part why N64 and PS1 emulation was medicore for so long. PS1 and N64 are only now starting to get out of the dark ages.
>>337340728
Almost as pathetic as consolecucks who get ass ravanged over emulation
>>337341695
Have you tested any of the games confirmed to work with it? It could be either a setup issue, or the plugin doesn't work with Crash.

No see it from this direction, when your consoles die their games will be still playable on a single platform, no need to care for taking care of old hardware, cds, protection against scalpers who sell their old games for abnormal prices.

Is it just me or does it run WAY too fast?
Like the console version has slowdown that makes it more manageable to play
>>337338093
GTE Accuracy was for vertices, not textures.
This is for textures.
Retro game emulation is the valkyrie of the vidya world.
Without it, amazing old games would just be distant memories; with it, einherjar can rise again, stronger and more beautiful than ever.
This doesn't justify skipping buying a console and experiencing the game first hand when it comes out, it's part of the fun. But the ability to emulate them is great.
Now i just wish i could emulate PS2 games on a portable console. Fuck i need Shadow Hearts in my life again.

>Warpless and Jitterless LSD

>>337345292
Just buy a PlayStation and a PSIO. Then you don't have to worry about inaccurate emulators and scalpers. The old hardware won't die if you're not using the disc drive, and you can just plug and play.
>>337343492
Here's without it, also this was done on ePSXe so it would probably look better with that PCSXR or whatever the fuck emulator.

Generally the PS1 and N64 had different tech and could do differnet things. So the games were different. Overall I like the PS1 library much more. RE2 and Silent Hill are my favorites ever. N64 favorted big open areas with lots of polies. PS1 favored smaller closed smaller areas, 2D games, 2D/3D games.
>Starfox 64
That's not a good game.

>BK

>Legend of Zelda
I'll give you that there's no PS1 equivalent for a game of that scale.
>Perfect Dark

Granted, technical issues aside, PD and GE are great games, and better than any PS1 shooter.
BUT they have serious technical issues. Which is why the XBLA version of PD is the definitive version. If ONLY the Goldeneye version was released as well.

Good games, but NOT essential in the sense that everyone should play them. They're a niche audience and kinda slow. Emualtion helps since you can speed up. Also Tactics Ogre is a snes game, with a PS1 and later PSP ports. PSP is the best version.

Except only autists continued calling it that. Functional members of society called it the PlayStation, and later the Playstation One.
I think the spergs do it to convey some sort of higher knowledge or in-house secret. Either way, it's a dead giveaway for a spergburger.

They're BORING games. Slow, lots of grinding. The stories aren't even that great. Read a book or watch a movie if you want a nice story. Most of their stories are cliches taken from comics/anime.

Whatever, I don't think Goldeneye is a bad game anyway so let's just agree to disagree.
why even bother with emulation when you can pick up a cheap PS2, softmod it, and get native PS1/PS2 support without any buggy or broken shit.

Because it was made by retards who couldn't program to save their lives. It had something like 4x the power of the PS2 and barely looked better.

Low priority, no devs cared enough to develop a emulator for it.
Also the low amount of documentation of the console didn't help at all.
You want a good emulator? get a shitload of documentation of the console and a couple of competent devs.
Wii and GC are a example of what you can do with a good amount of documentation of the console.
>>337349172
That's Chrono Trigger. Dragon Ball guy has like 8 characters he recycles until the end of time. Chrono Cross does not use him as an artist, sadly, to the game's detriment.
And interestingly, Vegeta type character does not appear in Chrono Trigger. But we got Bulma, Goku and others.

Hasn't the texture jittering been fixed for years now? PCSX-R has an option that IIRC fixes it called GTE-Accuracy.
I don't get why it's such a big deal anyway. Who gives a shit about a little texture jittering? That's just what PS1 games look like. It really doesn't matter.
I thought there was a big revelation awaiting, like a 100% accurate, non-plugin-based PS1 emulator with reasonable performance requirements. Instead I get a "fix" for something that has been fixed years ago and was only perceived to be a problem by hyper-autistic graphics-whores.
Fuck off, OP, and everybody who cares about this stupid shit.

That is fixing jittering. This is that and fixing texture perspective correction, so textures/models do not warp.
>I don't get why it's such a big deal anyway. Who gives a shit about a little texture jittering? That's just what PS1 games look like. It really doesn't matter.
Well not really. The jittering gets worse with higher resolutions, so it's more common in emulation than native console.
I thank god that I am not Anthony Burch and I didn't grow up in a Nintendo household.
>>337349960
GTE Accuracy only fixes polygons jumping around when up-res'd to HD. Perspective correct textures were only a recent thing.
>>337339313
If only indie games did look like Vagrant Story instead of less-than-8-bit pixel shit.
>>337350397
I love the stylized blood of Tenchu. Reminds me of those old Samurai movies or anime.

The warping was terrible in pretty much every game, with faces being worst in all games that had characters farther away from the screen.
But yeah with GTE Accuracy + this fix shit looks great. I don't even mind the backgrounds being low res.
>>337351219
depends on the game, things with the chibi look or without facial detail aren't too bad, silent hill / chrono cross / final fantasy viii were particularly awful, most of the time the faces were complete blobs because of all the jitter

Right, fair enough. I don't think it's a problem, it never bothered me, but if you want your PS1 games to look as good as possible, sure.
I just value accurate visuals (perhaps with a bit of upscaling) over using shitty plugin-based emulators for a bit of graphical enhancement that itself likely triggers billions of other graphical glitches.

>>337348391
>goto pawnshop
>ps1 twice price of ps2
I need to write this in every damn thread so here goes
Perspective correct texture mapping: Prevents textures from warping at certain angles
Z-buffer: Prevents polygons from being drawn in the wrong order along the z-axis
Sub pixel correction: Prevents vertices/polygons from jittering
PS1 didn't support any of the above
>>337352556
What the fuck is the point of the CPU overclock feature exactly? When I enabled it in Crash Bandicoot 3 it completely fixed game speed (game was running too fast and desynced from audio).
>>337352556
Medal of Honor or Echo Night 2.
>>337353006
We now have 2 of those right? GTE Accuracy does Sub Pixel Correction and this new hack does Perspective Correct Textures.
Granted the hack still needs work since it's in infancy right now.
Z-Buffer fucking when?
>>337353006
Does anyone know what /vr/'s general opinion on extra features for emulation is? There's gonna be at least a few people that insist exact copying is better than improving, but which side of the argument usually gets laughed at?
What was wrong with jittering? It's what made Playstation Playstation. It's as if you said that you enjoy a reboot of your favorite franchise more than the original. I thought you people hated games like DmC?
>>337353290
Mine is this:
First build an accurate emulator whose goal is to get 100% compatibility. Then on top of that build optional enhancement options.
>>337353328
Weak bait.
>>337353113
>We now have 2 of those right?
Correct
>Z-Buffer fucking when?
It's by far the most difficult to implement. By far.
Perspective correct texture mapping and sub pixel correction can be implemented just by intercepting vertex calculations and replacing them with more complex calculations that includes a perspective divide (for perspective correct) and floating point (for sub-pixel)
Implementing z-buffer basically requires dynamically rewiring how entire PS1 game engines function.
>>337337607
Is that really how PS1 games look like? Man lets just say I am glad I started gaming with a Ps3 haha.
MY first console is a ps4 :3
cod rocks.
>>337353113
Z-Buffer can be done in theory but its too hard, you literally have to rewrite how the PS1 works.
>>337340728
>>337337847
I'm happy about this because I want to see games archived for history-sake.
PS1's are unsupported now, and whilst able to work, being able to store and run these things digitally is great and much better for longevity.
For instance; I can't play Ace Combat 4-5-0 on the ps2 emulator since they're glitchy as hell.
Which is a shame since they're my favourite games of all time.
>>337353394
Is it even that big a deal? The z-buffer issues seem pretty minor compared to the jittering and warping.
>>337353394
>>337353549
I was mostly kidding with the z-buffer thing since I know it would need tantalizing amount of effort but not gonna lie I'd fucking love it to get implemented someday.
>>337337607
As long as they keep the vertex snapping. It's part of the aesthetics.
>>337353569
Ace Trilogy works flawlessly in Software mode, it has been for like a year now or so.
>>337353726
>As long as they keep the vertex snapping. It's part of the aesthetics.
Kill yourself.
>>337353743
Really? Last time I tried the missiles just flew through targets and the ground was horrifyingly glitchy.
>>337353726
>vertex snapping
yo dawg what that?
>The z-buffer issues seem pretty minor
It depends. Without a z-buffer, the task of sorting polygons along the z-axis falls to software.
Some games do a better job of it than others. In theory, polygon sorting mistakes can be devastating since they can interfere with gameplay (e.g. is the enemy behind that rock or in front of it?)
>>337353920
The issues you describe are exclusive to software mode, or rather one of them. The first issue was fixed years ago so it must have been forever since you last tried it. Right now the only issue left in hardware mode is the ground being glitchy due to hardware mode not supporting mipmapping which is required for the ground not to be glitchy as fuck.
But in software mode the game works flawlessly.
>>337354038
Good example is Vagrant Story which has no software z-buffering at all. Even with GTE Accuracy it's still misaligned as fuck. See vid in OP.
>>337353516
>>337353426
Here's to (you)
>>337354075
Nice! What's the difference between software and hardware mode again?
I'm currently using a gaming laptop as I moved abroad for a year or so.
Do you think it could handle it based on the fact it can handle XCOM2, DS3 at 60FPS and the Witcher 3 at about 30-40?
>>337354164
>Good example is Vagrant Story which has no software z-buffering at all. Even with GTE Accuracy it's still misaligned as fuck. See vid in OP.
Ah. that's why. With this option enabled, it improves it, but it's still there.
So your'e saying without a z-buffer we can't do perfection?
>>337354292
In software mode every instruction is processed using the GPU.
In hardware mode, as the name implies, a part of the instruction are offloaded on the GPU.
Software rendering is very accurate but also slower because CPUs do not have the raw power of GPUs.
Hardware is the opposite: fast but more prone to inaccuracies because GPUs are "dumber" than CPUs.
