E-UAE for PS3 (GameOS) Released
« on: February 06, 2011, 10:18:39 AM »

Some great news... it seems 'Ole' has ported E-UAE over to homebrew-enabled PS3's using the psl1ght sdk.

Quite the extent of the adaption to PS3, I cannot tell you yet, but this is a pretty exciting development.

Now, if anyone can actually locate the author, perhaps we could drag him here... :)


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
E-UAE 0.8.25 for PS3  release 3
===============================
- compiled by using psl1ght sdk
- The full uae documentation is stored in the 'docs' subdirectory, here
  you are reading the ps3 port info.

- simple options dialog (supports switching of the disk files and more)
- sound in 48000 kHz
- keyboard emulation
- support for loading zip and dms floppy images
- reads either /dev_usb000/uae/uae.cfg or /dev_hdd0/game/EUAE00825/USRDIR/UAE.CFG
  configuration during startup!

Requires:
- ps3 ready to boot homebrew programs
- uae.cfg either in /dev_usb000/uae/ or /dev_hdd0/game/EUAE00825/USRDIR/ directory
  (sample UAE.CFG included)
- kickstart rom - see docs/readme

Controls:
- press R2 to activate virtual keyboard (vkb), release R2 to hide it.
  If vkb is shown press left/right digital pad to select the current
  key. Press the 'up' digital pad button to actually simualte key press
  of the current key. L1, L2, R1 ann CIRCLE buttons are user defined keys.
  If vkb is shown press L1 to define L1 button, press L2 to define L2 button
  and press R1 to define R1 button.
- joypad 1 (emulates joystick 1 and mouse 1)
- joypad 2 (emulates joystick 2) - if you want to enable 2-joystick mode, plug-in
  the second joy pad, restart uae and switch the port mode to "joy-1 & joy-2" in the
  options dialog.
- left analog pad emulates the mouse movement. You can speed-up the mouse movement
  in the options dialog.

- SQUARE   - mouse button 1
- TRIANGLE - mouse button 2
- press Start to enter application menu, here you can load ADF files.

Additional info:

  you should specify all required parameters (memory size, kick rom, initial
  floppy disk files, cpu core, chipset etc.).
- Files (kickrom, adf files) are accesible from either usb disk or internal disk.

Just to update, incase noone follows this on the EAB.

MickJT has been updating this to the latest e-uae version. Done some improvements such as support for 2 mice, so Lemmings and Settlers 2 player modes now fully work i can confirm. Also added support for changing which analog stick controls the mouse/joypad, bit weird, but PS3 analogs have been known to break, so possibly useful. Also has the ability to recognize PAL/NTSC modes. He's also added savestates, which are useful.
