Hello all,
I am new to the forum but after reading how someone got better speed in mega man by disabling sound I quicky tried a few other things. BTW I dont know if anyone has posted this so excuse me if there has been a similar post.
Basically you can have megaman x running almost erfect by just turning the sound off-playing, resuming the game, then go back in and turn the sound back on. It seems to work almost perfect. You can also put it at 44khz. Speed limit should be off by the way. Let me know if this works with anyone else. This could be a bug with several other games as well. I only had 2.00 firmware.

Disabling sound in any megaman game will dramatically increase the fps.
This is nothing new.

hehe.... sound is still not perfect, but for most games there's no artifact this time (only the timing goes sometimes wrong) and yes, next version will be full sound emulation on me, giving a nice boost to the framerate ;D this one was really, really hard to implement & debug, beleive me  |

Great news!!! This is Awsome to hear. I cannot wait to see this new system.
With any luck, we could have VFPU also too. This would be the coolest thing in most of the world.
But no rush, no push, This team has had some tremendous advances in the PSP emulation world. We only request because we know you can eventually pull it off. (Well most of us.)
Rock on Emu guys, we salute you.

yeap vfpu could probably be added too, but there's not so much complex math in snes.
only some dsp games (mario kart, ...), C4 (megaman X) & superfx (starfox) could have a use of it...
but as they are all classics I think it will be worth to try & see if a speed boost can be gain there too.

Hey Yoyo is there anyway that RPG's can be fixed. i was playing Chrono Trigger getting almost a permanent 60FPS but as soon as battles happpen the FPS drops dramatically, and i have to up the Frameskip. is there anyway that this could be fixed.
Ohh and this is completly of the subject but can you buy LCD screens, cos i want to put a new LCD screen in my PSP with a better refresh rate.
Thanks Guys

sephiaya, try the hack/debug menu:
ignore fixed colour on
// windows clipping off
// add/sub modes on
// palette writes on
These options are very useful

Dont worry a whole lot about RPGs running full speed.
Once the next TYL comes out, with sound completely on the media engine, the speed increase will be largely noticable.
I have few doubts that Chrono Trigger will have problems for long.

I passed chrono trigger on the psp on version .2c
u kinda get used to the slow battles anyways, especially if u put active gameplay.

I use frameskip auto in RPG's beacause more often than not I don't need pixel accuracey in those games. Now action games and Mario RPG are a different story because of timing and enemies moving oddly. That make it all difficult.
YoYo you are my hero. Getting SFX stuff working would be the Icing on your cake. I am curious if this would help rotating mode 7 items? I saw you mention Mario Kart, I assume that in some cases like Act Raiser and Secret of Mana top views would be sped up also?

Im assuming the same too.
If those games start working well on my PSP, I will postpone upgrading my firmware no matter what!
Even if Halo 3, Super Smash Bros.3 and FF 13 come out on PSP, I will simply laugh at them and continue playing mario kart.

Meh, Halo sucks, Smash Bors. will be on DS, and FF 13 will be on my second PSP so I never ever give up my mario kart.  |

Post by corona on Feb 14, 2006 4:47:17 GMT 1
Halo doesnt suck.
Halo is fun fun.
Smash Bros will sadly never be on the DS. (Shigero Miyamoto is making sure of that)
And FF 13 isnt ever gonna be on PSP.
I was just being extreme.
As for your second PSP..... are you willing to part with it?

There has been many rumors of Smash Bros on DS. I beleive that nintendo will prolly do a remake of the N64 one at teh very least. They are putting it on the revolution. Using a large number of the team for Melee. Haven't announced which company will be dev'n it though.
Halo has a lame story. I know FF13 will never be on PSP, now PS3 or Rev for sure.
I love my second PSP, best buy yet. I got it just so I could have Homebrew adn Monster hunter Portable. Great game.

As for your second PSP..... are you willing to part with it? Why is he making sure that Smash Bros never comes to the DS, if anything.. I am sure its in development right now. Now that they got the wifi stuff established and whatnot, I could see a release of Smash Bros for DS in the near future. |

Miyamoto has been saying stuff recently along the lines of "I want the Super Smash Bros games to be exclusive to the consoles, because that way they are more fun"
Just when he won me back with Zelda, he goes and says something stupid and unforgivable.
CURSE YOU MIYAMOTO!

Halo doesnt suck. Halo is fun fun. Halo is the essance of 1996 games. We have much better options now. Move to something better. Halo was outdated when it was new. Sure it's the first time a FPS was done correctly on a console, but if you have better options elsewhere, why limit yourself? Console gaming is awful anyways, even the Xbox 360 already has outdated looking graphics compared to average computers and they were really pushed in that department. |

Just wait for the PS3, you will be amazed for all of 15 minutes before something prettier comes out!

yah Xbox 360 blows. the only way your going to get the good quality out of it is if you have a high definition TV otherwise your gunna be looking at a 640 x 480 res screen when you Xbox is putting out much more than that. Thats why all the displays you see at the stores use those expensive Tvs. youll never see that displayed on a CRT . so your much better off getting a computer and monitor and having the nice look and better look of games with a 10 times easier control setup. and for the same price + a computer that can do other things. Plus you can keep upgrading it to stay with the times. instead of blowing another grand in 4 more years. Have fun wasting your money Xbox 360 fans
BTW MEGAMAN X RULES GOOD NEWS ABOUT THAT ME SOUND EMULATION. CANT WAIT!!! that was always my favorite game what with the incredible music and great gameplay. it will be great with no sound artifacts and 60 fps. keep up the good work

PS3 will be pretty but HEH HEH HEH Rev will rock all the cities. I hope it does as good as the DS. That will be killer. Til then monster hunter 2 comes out tomorrow. I have it pre-ordered, so Ican finally see what I get by connecting it to my PSP.

I gotta get my hands on a 1.5, 1.51, 1.52, or 2.0 CERAMIC WHITE PSP. If anyone has any suggestions besides eBay as to where I can purchase one, I am all ears. |
