Re: RIVAL PSP AMIGA EMULATOR TO PSPUAE!
« Reply #1 on: January 16, 2008, 11:58:28 AM »

I've tested some favorites of mine:

Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge - works great (Throttle 60): smooth gfx (but constant gfx error popping up every couple of seconds), almost perfect sound
Lotus Turbo Challenge II - doesn't load
Paradroid 90 - works very good (Throttle 20!): relatively smooth gfx, almost perfect sound
Stunt Car Racer - couldn't input name: thus not working yet...
Turrican - works great! (Throttle 40!): relatively smooth gfx, good sound (you can't use grenades since you can't push ALT...)
Turrican II - works good (Throttle 40): gfx relatively smooth when alone ;), choppy with enemies, good sound
Turrican 3 - Intro and Menu working with great sound, but game doesn't load

Biggest problems at the moment is that the gfx are only horizontally stretched and the control can't be configured (and no keyboard input).
When gfx and control are configurable it will be a tough competitor for PSPUAE...

Note that the second joystick-button is emulated (circle button), so you can use the powerlines and the gyroscope in Turrican I+II.
The first joystick button is awkwardly placed on triangle and the joystick is the analog stick.

Very nice first release!

... actually this seems to be a result of the throttle - which is probably just a fancy name for CPU-Chipset ratio is it not?
Seemed so to me, too.

Some more tests:

Hybris - works okay (Throttle 60): relatively smooth gfx (top and border missing), good sound
Lost Patrol, The - doesn't load
Lotus III - doesn't load

Stunt Car Racer: The New Tracks - works great (Throttle 0!): almost full speed gfx (but unfortunately only horizontally stretched, but not vertically), almost perfect sound

Note you can push the fire button to proceed instead of <Enter> in "Stunt Car Racer: The New Tracks" when prompted to enter your name. Thus this game is already playable. Be aware that it's difficult to find an ADF of TNT (you have to google pretty hard... ;)).

Ok, I do not post here very often it seems - I am more of an interested reader at the moment, but I want to make a statement here:

DO work together. This is -the- chance to finally create the near perfect portable Amiga.

Some already said it and I just want to make it clear that there should be no competition here and I know that a serious developer sees fellow coders working on similar projects as a fine oppurtunity to improve - for both ;) Im looking forward to a combination of the amazing compatibility of PSPUAE and the fluid sound of UAE4ALL. Well I do know that the coders of PSPUAE would get this right, I just hope the coders of the other project will see the possibilities, too ;)

Interesting times ahead :)

Never have seen it as a competition, and never will. As I said its great there's another emu to choose from. I was debating changing the original thread title, but horace decided for me, ;).

Insert the decompressed rom or GZip compressed format

Force throttle from 0 to 40 (better 20)

If you have a black screen try to force Super Throttle R and after L

I have tried more game:

Super Frog run - Almost Perfect
Turrican - Almost Perfect
Wiz'n Liz - Playable
Apidya - Playable
BC Kid - Almost Perfect
Lotus II - Unplayable
Jim  Power - Slowed
Fire and Ice - Playable
Ruff'n Tumble - Almost Perfect

Exscuse for my bad english

Yes, you must make sure you are using the overdumped (512k) Kickstart 1.3 rom with UAE4ALL - i have heard the same said of the GP2X version.

the "genuine" kickstart rom is only 256kb big, and works fine with PSPUAE however. This will be becuuse E-UAE is a more universal version of UAE.


this would be  a likely cause of  anyones problems if you cannot get the emulator to go beyond the menu (i had the same initially) - i dont know why this is not in the Readme file frankly.

Apart from the games that require keyboard input the compatibility on this emu so far is fantastic for a R1 beta release.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem very stable:

Turrican crashed at the boss of level 2-2
Lotus I always crashes after a couple of races
Paradroid 90 always crashes after a couple of droid-conquering-games

(haven't intensely tested other games so far)

lol, you too, *FOL breaks into song* "Captain Planet, hes a hero, gonna take polution down to" ermmmm, I never watched it as a kid honest gov, ;).

Well the good news is, what im working on (PSPUAE), Captain Planet is actually running with frameskip, but still just unplayble (still its a start, running at around 5 to 8 with Auto Frameskip). However Robocop is now playble rather decent, as are a few others, and thats not even using chipset options.
I got my head stuck right into the code, and am currently trying lots of different ideas. I just never know when to quit, have gone back over stuff, i had tried before, this time with a better understanding.

Thats the problem with uae4all, it needs a FPS counter, as its hard to judge if its perfect or not. People thinking its perfect isnt good enough. Bubble Bobble with my latest test build of PSPUAE runs with cpu max at 44 to 50 FPS with no frameskip. If I turn off FPS counter, its then hard to say it isnt perfect as it were. I know it isnt though as FPS counter tells me it not, :).

I kind of prefer PSPUAE, even though the sound is not to the full power of the PSP, atleast many more games work. And RISS is the s**t too.
