>I was the one who wrote that exact comment in response to the metroidposting. Not sure why someone other than the salty autist who spammed the thread would copy/paste it out of context.
This salty spamming autist figure you're referring to is supposed to be me then? I honestly only wanted to get a hint on how to snatch up an early super missile tank, but the thread was so dead I succumbed to searching up some walkthroughs before the rescue came by. My skimming game is too strong so I always end up ruining the experience for myself with excess spoilers; brief hints like you'd get from asking friends are a lot more enjoyable.

After that I did some more posting from my adventure since the thread was dead silent anyway, but if you prefer early death over seeing occasional Metroid and Mickey pics from me then sure we can go that route instead.

Hey guys, I wanted to try emulating some Andriod ports of games, Dragon Quest and FFT come to mind.

If you don't mind spoonfeeding me, what's the best way to use these android emulators? I see a lot of them tend to have some shit with them that I rather not have to deal with. Does anyone have a suggestion for the matter?
>>
>>147210252
If you seriously want to emulate android on your PC you're gonna have to deal with that shit you'd rather not deal with so get used to it.
>>
>>147210252
I'd suggest not emulating Android ports. FFT on the PSP emulates great, FFT on the PSX emulates perfectly, and the Dragon Quest games emulate much better on every system they're available on than the Android ports too.

Win7 x64, ePSXe 2.0.2

I'm trying to play Chrono Cross, but I can't seem to get the game to render right.
I'm having serious texture alignment problems.
Text flows outside of given textboxes, prerendered backgrounds seem to not be aligned correctly with collision (And I end up having to 'feel' for walls, like pic related).
I've tried to look up and use a few configs online, doesn't seem to help the issue.

Halp?

- It's not stolen if most emulators are open source. Besides, RA exists.

It's a permissions issue, check out this article maister wrote about it:

Do chmod 666 /dev/input/event* for a temporary fix so you don't have to reboot.

That's not Android's fault, that's problem with the current mobile market. Most Normies want thin phones, and want to use a touch screen. Smartphone killed using physical controls for mobile devices. So most mobile games don't use physical control because the majority of the market use touch screens.


Android has no problems with creating 3DS(GPD), PSP/Vita(JXD), and PSP Go(Xperia Play) form factors. Android is the only OS where you can find a Flip Phone, or Slider form factor with decent specs.

NES and SNES always maintain 8:7 pixel aspect ratio on 4:3 NTSC TVs, filling the screen by overscanning. 1:1 pixel aspect ratio (resulting in 8:7 or 16:15 display aspect ratio) is not accurate, and neither is naively stetching to fit 4:3.

Not sure about other consoles since they ran at different internal resolutions.

Win 10 x64, ePSXe 2.0.0, Chrono Cross
Hi, I'm having some problems using ePSXe to emulate Chrono Cross. I saw another thread dealing with this game on this emulator already, but my problem is of a different nature.

I started using the recommended config for Pete's OpenGL2 2.0 with the Natural custom shader. The game itself runs fantastically on the updated textures/filtering. Enemies look good, moves look fine, character models have higher fidelity, it's wonderful. My problem is that most menus--such as the battle menu or the post-battle status screen--have a problem where the text and box are distorted and wonky. Not unplayable, but not pleasant to look at, either.

Is there something I can do to fix this issue?
>>
>>147266483
That info isn't easily obtainable metadata in the ISO, like the other stuff dolphin shows. So there would need to be a database for info like that, that would most likely be on a remote server.
And seeing as most people know basic info of games they get, before they get them, it's probably not worth the effort.
>>
>>147267381
>Is there something I can do to fix this issue?
Avoid ePSXe.

I see that some of them are listed as "plugin dependant", which is also what ePSXe runs on. Would a plugin dependant emulator such as PCSX-R suffer from the same problem I'm having, or is ePSXe just shit enough that it'll fuck up even a good thing?

>SNES always maintain 8:7 pixel aspect ratio on 4:3 NTSC TVs, filling the screen by overscanning
That's absolutely false though. When's the last time you've used an SNES, if ever? Some games like Chrono Trigger even make their circle shapes with being stretched to 4:3 in mind. It's just that many others (including most Nintendo games I've played) don't, and get stretched on the TVs the console was made for use with, so some games will always be a little off of what their intent was no matter what you choose.
>>
>>147267438
Its not hard to do. Each game already has ini files that list info such as compatibility notes and whatnot. I have practically every game I don't mind taking an afternoon and making notes of whats what. Most of the games already say it on wikipedia and other places anyways, not hard to compile everything.

Gaming and software in general is moving towards online distribution and require Internet connectivity to function because some important stuff is computed server side and received by the software.

With either Mednafen or RetroArch (which I'm really taking a shine to, the interface is wonderful) is there a way to upscale graphics like with plugin-dependant emulators, or is that a feature specific to them?

Apologies for the numerous questions by the by, I've never really had an issue with emulators before that wasn't really up to just interface.

In the core options, internal resolution.

Be prepared for horrible performance though.
>>
>>147273667
But you can never replicate server side code 1:1, you can only observe the request-response pairs and guess how the server behaves internally, you can't be completely sure if that's what the developer intended

>>147274130
Does it put a particularly strong load on the system as opposed to HQ settings on a plugin emulator? My rig ran Chrono Cross with the upscaled internal resolution just fine; my issue was that it bloated the text and fucked with the menus.
>>
>>147269696
>That's absolutely false though.

Nope.

>Multiplying the pixel rate by the scanline length gives 39,375,000*6/4/11*640/(135,000,000/11) = 280 pixels per scanline. The PPU puts signal in 256 of these and a border at the left and right sides. The color of this border is the same as the backdrop color (usually the value in $3F00). This makes the pixel aspect ratio on a 4:3 TV to be 240/280*4/3 = exactly 8:7, or about 1.143:1.

>that image
Nice job conflating 8:7 PAR with 8:7 DAR (i.e. 1:1 PAR) yet again.
>>
>>147274448
>Does it put a particularly strong load on the system as opposed to HQ settings on a plugin emulator?
Yes, it's software rendering, and single threaded, so you need the one of highest end CPUs to do 4x. Most CPUs should be able to do 2x just fine though.
There is a hardware rendering build of it, but it's still in the early stages and buggy.
>>
>>147269696
Might want to tell that to byuu since his emulator always outputs SNES with 8:7 PAR with overscan visible, since it's accurate and all.

>leave no features behind

It's just tacked-on multiplayer features. I'm sure on some level you could even emulate most MMOs.

But stuff like Team Fortress or Overwatch, you'd need actual people on the other side. But then new arena type games like that come around all the time. They're less like experiences, more just diversions.
>>
>>147274652
That's unfortunate. My rig is pretty high end but I wouldn't necessarily think it capable of 4x.

So there's not really a way to get higher fidelity graphics on a PSX game without also sacrificing the legibility of its text and menus?
>>
>>147274615
Note: this applies to SNES as well since it outputs with the same pixel clock as the NES.

That the emulator modules in Mednafen besides PSX or PCE are forks of ancient versions of other emulators, and they are statically linked in the binary so you can't remove them.

All RA's netplay does is emulate the same instance on both hosts and sync inputs. Basically you can use netplay for anything with split screen/same system mulit, and nothing more(eg no Game Boy).

Though there is actually also the requirement that the core supports savestates, as they are used with real time rewind for latency hiding.

Those tests became useless when ePSXe specifically started targeting them for 2.0.x.
>Like all hardware tests, these shouldn't be taken too seriously, and are certainly not a direct measure of an emulator's accuracy. ePSXe in particular seems to deliberately target these tests(partly by using the Amidog software GPU plugin), at the expense of accuracy, rather than for the sake of it, as using the plugins and settings that would get these results causes serious bugs in actual games.
>>
>>147292098
You can easily make a emulator pass tests, and then make it fail on anything else ;)
>>
>>147267381
If I were you, I'd forget about ePSXe entirely and go with Mednafen through RetroArch instead. As for Windows 10, I don't know if it's because ePSXe doesn't work properly on it or something, which sounds like the only reasonable reason, but outside of that, I don't see why everyone else is pointing it out as a major flaw. I've been using it for a year now and I really haven't gotten any issues of extreme importance.

Yeah. PCSX-R's interpreter hangs during the CPU test on instruction JR (and probably 12 others) because it uses some old ICache code that's not quite right, and you could easily fix the hang and have PCSXR pass more tests by removing it. However, this will happen if you do that.
