[Q] How to change discs on SE Xperia PLAY psx emulator? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well i'm wondering how to swicth discs because on the se ps1 emulator there is a switch discs option and i want to know how to do it with the 2 discs on metal gear solid. Thank You for your time.

I don't think it can, because none of the games from the market were multi-disk yet. You could try renaming and moving the save file though, it's possible that could work

i'm using psxperia tool to convert the games to the apk. is there anyway to stick the disk files into one iso file and switch the discs?

Here u have sth. Try, but i think it wont work...

dont know about metal gear but...
my friend has played ff8 and he had to copy the save game to data and launch dics 2...i suppose the change disc option will come when sony offers games with multi disc

yea im new here but i would also like an answer to this cus im play ff7 USA full speed but it would suck if i got stuck on disc 1 without changing to disc 2 lol on fpse there are minor speed issues when going in menu or fight scenes which makes its use bad and good, both are good to have though because of capability issues
UPDATE: i been reading you can just rename the memory card and see if that works or if you have fpse just load disc 2 off that then play trhough for a save spot then reload it on ps1 emulator or something im still researching

I know u can do that I was going for something better

[Q] Which emulator best?

My son has a Xperia play, I was going to have a mess with an emulator on it "for old times sake"
It's not rooted or anything like that, is there a simple way to get an emulator working, not too technical and which is best?
Cheers
What console do you want to emulate?
Sent from my R800i using XDA
Depends on what you want to emulate. FPSE is great for psx
sorry should have said
not sure really, whatever is the best, smoothest out there really?
I came from Commodore 64, Amiga, but anything really, I want to show my son some "classic" games from when I used to play, and maybe some newer ones, PS1 possible?
also as a side note, I currently have a HTC Sensation XE, wil these work on my phone or only the Xperia Play?
cheers
You can find Commodore 64, PS1, Gameboy & gameboy advance emulators that work on most phones. Just search for them on Google Play

they will work on the Sensation
another good emulator is MAME4droid
I don’t have a clue!
Dosbox turbo is a great port of Dosbox on android. Xperia Play optimized. I'm currently playing at wolf3d and Master of Orion 2 (steam and gog releases, respectively).
I'm after a particular game to work on my XE and sons Xperia play, am I allowed to name the game and ask which emulator is best for it please?
yes cause you can, fire away your just not allowed to post warez and where you got them from

Ok great do I need to get snesx9 them for lemmings 1 & 2? I thought they were on Amiga to though.
How's the control method? I'm hoping its touch, ie touch a climber icon, then touch a lemming?
snesx9 is free just search on google and yea they are on amiga to but its so much easier to get them working with the snes emulator
Can't find snesx9 on play store. Also forgot to say both my XE and sons Xperia Play are standard non rooted, not sure if this makes a difference?
I can find snesdroid, does it make a difference which emulator is used?
I mean search on google in your phones web browser u will find snes9x you can use snesdriod but the games lag ,non root will be fine

Ah sorry. I've never installed anything other than from the Google play store.
Is there none on the play store that run fine?
snesdroid will run it ok just download all the free snes emulators and try them all and keep the one that works best then just delete the others

n64oid bit laggy?

how is everyone finding n64oid on their nexus 7? in mario 64 the game is very smooth but every now and then it hands for a second or so and usually gets a little laggy before hanging.
Also tried fpse with metal gear solid and can get past the main menu. I had this problem before on my xperia play and just had to keep setting the bios but there is no menu button on the nexus 7 so can get to the correct menu. any ideas?
For me, n64oid is flawless. Try using a custom kernel like trinity. Overclocking the CPU and GPU makes a pretty big difference. Also try changing settings like disabling audio, disabling screen stretch and adjusting frame skip.

Aha! I did wonder why I couldnt find in Play Store but now I understand emulators are now banned from Play Store and also you can no longer download games directly through ROM gripper
Gonna d/l N64oid anyway and see if any lag with overclocked GlazedJB ROM. Hope not!
Thanks
Works great.
mario tennis is unplayable
I think if you're worried about 'lag', you should see how the game plays on a high specced pc - as far as I know, most N64 emulators have bugs with all sorts of games, and it depends on which file you're using to play the game, etc, so there is a solid chance it isn't down to the N7.

Refer to the psxperia compatibility list; it is a known problem.
It ALWAYS crashes when the replay is playing, you need to press X quickly after a fight to skip it, or use FPSE instead.

As I have mentioned. I have been playing tekken 3 with zero issues. No stuttering, crashing or any hiccups. Itbjust works

EDIT: I used screencast to make a video of Tekken 3 on my play. Nothing special just payed the first 2 rounds with a character.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-nE6kWTxhU&feature=youtu.be
Just noticed the video is sideways... sorry about that. Going to make another video right now and will post a link here.... hopefully I can get it to be in landscape instead of portait.
EDIT: again,
New video this time in landscape.

Also I dont know why my screencast videos always appear to lag, when while I am playing them they are buttery smooth.. is it something in the settings? I only changed the video from portrait to lanscape for this one....
Are you using software rendering? Just looked it up again:
Use software rendering. Minor graphic glitches in character selection screen. Press start to skip ending credits or else game will hang up. Use hardware rendering for hi-res models and graphics, with the problem that the game crashes at the end of each fight.

That might be the difference.

FPSE FF7 Settings?

Does anyone know what the best settings for the One X would be?
I've been messing around with the video settings for a few days now but I can't figure out what the best configuration is, anyone have any experience with this?
I advice you to use epsxe emulator, it has less options then fpse but the sound is 100% identical(fpse really has bad sound...) and visual wise it's good too! Also 60 fps constant. As for options for fpse just use frame limiter and software emulation or opengl and frame limiter, but still ff7 has most epic soundtrack ever and fpse fails to emulate most of the sounds and music!

Thanks, now if you can continue being so nice and guide me through how to continue playing my save game that I've saved on FPSE on the EPSXE I'll gladly switch!
I've put some work into the game already, and just starting from scratch doesn't seem an enjoyable option for me since I've beating this game many times in my child-hood and I'm just replaying it for the memories.
And I do agree with you, sound is pretty ****ty on FPSE and that takes the experience right away from emulating FF7 on it!
I don't have fpse anymore but I'm pretty sure there's an mcr file you have to copy and paste from your fpse folder to epsxe. Or you can copy your in game save states to epsxe. (memcard is better though) Let me look it up for you, as I bought fpse a while ago.

Thanks, friend!
I'll do this tomorrow, first I need some sleep!
Ok I can confirm it works with transferring your memory card from fpse to epsxe. (save state doesn't work! Has a different framework)
The memory card is located at /sdcard/.FPSE./memcard (its a hidden folder so make sure your file explorer has show hidden folders enabled.)
Copy slot1.mcd to epsxe memcard folder (located at sdcard) and rename the file to epsxe000.mcr launch epsxe and enjoy no more missing sounds! I bought them both and the two euros I spent for epsxe were worth my money Let me know if you need help if it doesn't work but it worked out for me, happy ff7ing man!

Thanks a lot, I had the same problem and didn't want re-start the game
Ouu this sounds fun
All I need now is to find a decent FF7 iso I guess...
Going to install EPSXE now! :good:
Epsxe on an HD720p screen like ours just sucks hard.
But if you like pixels, why not, right, you won't have any difficulties to set it up, there are almost no possible settings xD
Final Fantasy 7 without Fpse's openGL mode is just ugly.
As for sound, I guess you've tried Spusync option? And what format is your iso? if it's .bin, you need the .cue that goes with.
Also use framelimiter to get constant fps, and play a little with "latency" option in MISC settings. FF7 runs perfect in openGL on my oneX, no sound problem, and no ugly pixels and blurry filtering like Epsxe
@AndyLeJizm: "visual wise", Epsxe is just ugly on HD screen and tablets. Fpse can render PS1 game at your screen real resolution, and sound problems can most of the time be solved if you use the accurate settings.
Also Epsxe may have better support for sh...y downloaded ROMs from the internet, that's true, and explains most of the time why people go to Epsxe.....

It looks fine to me (somewhat smoother graphics then original ps1, cause they have hardware rendering now with new update), whoever played final fantasy 7 knows that graphics don't matter especially for a game that's thirteen years old and sound is super important with oldskool rpg games. And yes I've spent countless nights to figure out how to get perfect sound emulation on both my phone and tablets with fpse but it never came close to 100% (missing instruments in music, sound fx that sounded real bad) In my opinion, if you don't care about nifty graphics but really want 100% the same identical ps1 rom (or ofcourse a music lover that loves oldskool nobuo uematsu fantasy music) as it was supposed to be then epsxe really
Is better. Might not be the best looking but it sure is the best sounding my two cents.

On my Galaxy S5 both emulators run smooth. I use fpse, because the opengl plugin works great, makes the game look way better than on the PS.
And still it runs smooth. In fact, no matter what settings i try, fpse seems to be around 10% too fast. I played youtube movies of fixed sequences, such as the gold sauces speed square, as they run on the PS and my emulated game clearly finished earlier, even when i synchronized them at the beginning. This is with frame limit enabled of course.

[Q] any type of way to get something like PSXPeria working on ics?

i really miss ps1 support on ics, and i hate sacrificing one thing for another just to get ps1 support. upgrading downgrading i want to be on ics with ps1 support and lets NOT discuss ps1 emulators like fpse or other because the xperia play Cant really handle that. The ps1 support is not gone from ICS, if you put the crash game on the gb ver it still works but our old PSXPeria method has been patched.
i have a bunch of my ps1 disks that i would love to put on my xperia NO EMULATORS. Any ideas?

Uh, have you ever even tried an emulator? epsxe works great on my Xperia play, and that was at 1ghz before I installed custom ROM. Hardly any slowdowns in any of the games with 0 frameskip. I'm sure with overclocking it would be perfect.
no matter how many time i rack my brains or loose sleep over trying to config those damn emulators i can NEVER get it to run in full speed. (Not yelling at you btw lol)
i only get about 20-30 fps maybe
but im currently trying fpse, if you have this can you please upload the config file (Backed up through menu)
or do you think or recommend epsxe more?
maybe also backup config files?
Sorry I don't have much experience with fpse. I definitely recommend epsxe. I can post my config file later on when I have some time.
You may also try Retroarch. I tried it because it sounds great in theory, especially because it is free, but I found the implementation to be very poor and a pain and the ass to configure and use at all.. So I broke down and went with epsxe
Flash gingerbread. There is no way to get it workin on ics. I tryed for a very long time tried to replicate what yifanlu did on gingerbread but its past my knowhow. Maybe you could try resigning it to ics but you will propably get parsing error

Yeah that's what I was gonna add is, why not dual boot to GB as well? But anyway, send me a PM if you still want the epsxe config file (I might not check this thread), but then I'll post it in the thread when you remind me.
yea i had no choice but to downgrade but my phone is breaking down with every flash and i just did it again:crying: im not supposed to flash back to GB on my phone because it dosent work correctly anymore.
Downgrading to GB gets me this,
auto rotation animation broken
720p recording broken
both unfix able errors no matter what kernel i use
theres no real explanation on why these happen but i believe that my xperia play is breaking down, and i still fave to flash back and forth form ics to use my camera!
