PSone EMU for PS2

[amboxer21]

Is there a good PSone EMU for PS2 through uLaunchELF besides the one from EP? I am trying to play FFVIII and it continues to freeze on the Ifrit battle in the beginning.

Also, does anyone know what GUI toolkit the PSone emulator uses for the PS2 platform? GtkFB(runs off the framebuffer and doesnt need X)? QT? Im tried runnning the epsxe PSone EMU through uLaunchELF on my PS2 and wanted to know what toolkit is used for the EMU's because there isnt a UI for the epsxe EMU and wanted to see if it is possible to write one. They are in ELF format.

there is no ePSXe emulator for PS2

ePSXe is a PC only emulator

there is an emu called PS2PSXe that is not ePSXe http://psx-scene.com/forums/f292/ps2...pdates-105355/

The PS2 has native PSone support but there is a swop trick done via an Elf file that requires you to use an original Psone game

if FFVIII is freezing with the later option then it could either be the CD itself or it could be the swop disc has too low a TOC

The emulator itself is not a 100% acurate emu it will have problems with some games

Personly if I emulate PSX I do it via my xbox (original not 360) with a PS1/2 controller hooked up to it via a Pad converter

im playing the game off of a USB. Which might also be why. Since the PS2 uses USB1.0. Is there a way to turn cd bin/cue's into one playable ISO? I am using ESR so every game is patch using ESR patcher. I cannot patch ps1 games so, i just use the USB. ANy better ideas??

[Zorlon]

ESR is PS2 side only I know this

Yeah you can still boot PSone games from CD using the internal PSX engine the PS2 has anyway

you need something called PSXLauncher and an original PSX game (I beleave you also need the lid sensors blocked)

Not my guide but..

I have a ps1 game, FF9. So, your saying that i can burn the PS1 bin/cue files to cd and they will run on my ps2 as long as i use the swap trick with a real ps1 game?

I have a slim and had to block al 3 sensors in order to instal freemcboot. So im covered in that area.

Do you have a link to the PSXLauncher?

EDIT: NVM, I just seen the link for it that you posted. Thanks. Yeah, I DL'd that from here -> http://www.emuparadise.me/Sony_Plays...laystation_2/2 Im looking for the PSXLAuncher and didn't see it. Anyone have a link for the PSXLauncher?

Not sure because I am not home but if I have FreeMcBoot installed will PSXLauncher be instaled as well??

[Zorlon]

lol no problem.. getting alot that today

I have not used that method myself by the way but I will support you with it as much as possible

The main thing is that you have an original game with a large TOC i.e. a game that has more or equal data to the game you are playing (I could be incorrect about the TOC thing but in general when using a disc swop/swap method this is the case)

You will also need a PSX/PSone memcard to save your game (this method does not use an emulator but uses the PS2's backward compatability)

As I said I use other systems to play my PSone games on my TV

Can this be done without the PSXLauncher? Can you break the process down real quick so i can stop asking unnecessary questions lol Im going to buy a PS1 memory card now. luckily I have a local vintage game store in my town.
I went and bought a 1MB, 15 Block PS1 mem card. Only cost 8 U.S. dollars. Still not hoe but I am almost certain that when you install FreeMcBoot, it comes with PSXLauncher. I'll let you know when I get home. Thanks

[Zorlon]

No I'm sure you need PSXLauncher.Elf

there was an old exploit but not 100% sure it was used to actually boot up PSX games or just another homebrew booter, that is going back some long years so I would need to do some digging

For now read the link I gave you it does tell you how to run it



Wow last PSX memcard I picked up was only 59p apx $1 I couldn't even find a one new like that any more


EDIT:- forgot to mention but that method can only boot CD-R's from your own region, you might be able to patch the boot code though, but I have not tested that personly (I have my PS2 hooked up via component cables that PSX games do not like and most screens just don't show)
