I just got a complilation and put 800 roms into a folder but now all the emulators, including this one, freeze my PSP.... is it because its a RAM problem since its too many files? I don't see how taht can be as the files are just text files until it is loaded... no?

If you have issues like this I would suggest breaking down your roms in to ALphabetical order. Just a thought.

I looked in the code and I've put a limit to 1024 entries in a directory.
that means 1024 - number of directories files.
so without subdirectories you have the standard '.' & '..' directories, so 1022 files.
perhaps it's a memory issue....

There are around 800 USA releases, probably another 50 or so are translated japanese games. Then there's Terrianigma from europe which never saw a US release.
I can't fathom anyone running into an issue with the number of files per directory if they really cared about playing the games games they were putting on their stick. Drop all of the sports games and anything based on movies and it will probably cut 100 games off of the USA releases, at least. There are alot of really crappy USA SNES releases no one would want to play too which could be removed from the list.

agreed Craig But for each crappy game at least 1 good one came out. That is why SNES was and still is the best system released.  |

That's horribly wrong. You're checking goodsets. They're including every single variation of any ROM image, no matter how useless. Remember that time you tried to copy a game onto a floppy and the disk got damaged? Yeah, it's now a new version of the ROM image.
The entire SNES library is at least doubled once in the goodsets because at one point Vimms lair tried to host every single SNES ROM image, but they discovered that people were just collecting them, not playing them. The proceded to trash headers and append extra data to the end of files in the range of a few bytes so the ROM images wouldn't be counted by goodsets, but would still work fine on copiers and emulators. So just as a "f**k you" to Vimms lair the Goodset people added every single image hosted on Vimms as an alternate version, the resulting flood of people trying to collect everything destroyed Vimms bandwidth.
Stop collecting! Get games for the sake of playing them, not for the sake of weird statistics no one cares about. If you really want to get a complete collection of games use the no intro dats, they only have one copy of any game and the verify it to be the original image that's on the cart. (They do have region dupes though, but you can specify regions)

thats intresting i never knew anything about that, and yea you nailed it right on the head, goodsets. and my purpose of getting them was to both play them, and collect them.... to collect the working ones anyway.

I miss vimm's lair, that was so nice back in the day. When I first saw a translated copy of FFV to match my rom.... AWW those were the days. When GB was the best hand held out  |

i didn't even notice i didn't turn on the new mode 7 setting.. i WAS running on frameskip 2 with no other settings on... and it was working fine.. around 30-35 fps.. now that i turned on the mode 7, i had to lower the frameskip to 0... now that its at 0, the fps = 35-40... with a slight slowdown on the action scenes... but that happened before when running with the fs 2... but it slowed down on SNES anyways.. so, in conclusion, i believe that the best setting for mario rpg is v0.3ME with frameskip 0 and mode 7 setting ON.... hope that helps
