edit: nevermind, problem fixed. For future reference, anyone getting garbled graphics followed by the game crashing near the beginning of the game should enable "Divide Counters"
How well does psx4droid work on the G2/DZ ?
well mine lags a little during cinematics...
other than that it's fine i guess...
i also was playing FFIX lol

it does work well. the only problem is getting the games to work. it only uses certain file formats so you aim to find roms already in those file formats.
the only game i have so far is command and conquer red alert. where do you guys find games that dont need to be modified much to work with psx4droid?
Version
What version of psx4 were you using? Iv got the lite version and the new 2.0 version. Some games play good in lite and some play better in 2
Wait for fpse, should be landing tonight hopefully and allegedly improves performance drastically.
Fpse is 100x better than psx4droid.

I have to agree, fpse has perfect performance on my DZ, and the compatibility is far better than psx4droid. I couldn't even get psx4droid to function properly running CM7.
So have you beaten ozma yet?...

Hello all.
I am having problems with emulation on my newly purchased xperia play.
I downloaded snesoid because I was recommended to get it by a friend *and apparently the internet is crazy about it*. When I tried playing Megaman X on it, there was very noticeable slowdown. The first stage *highway* ran at noticeably slower speeds than it did on the snes. It was playable, but felt sluggish. At first I was okay with this, but then I played it on my friend's phone just to test it out, and his was runninghttp://media.xda-developers.com/images/editor/menupop.gif it perfectly.
Does anyone know why that may be?
I also downloaded snes9x ex to test it out, and the app runs great! Problem with this app, unfortunately, is the VERY noticeable input latency. It makes platformers really odd to play on with.
I tried Seiken Densetsu 3 on Snesoid as well, and that game glitches out every conversation that comes up. The screen will flicker for a second. Very jarring.
Has anyone else experienced these kind of things with theirs, and if so, does anyone know a fix for this?
If this is phone specific, I am just going to return it since it only has been a day and just get a new one, but I want to make sure I can't do anything to fix it on my end before hand, this way I can at least learn something about these phones if there is a fix I CAN do at home, since I currently am a huge phone noob.
Something very interesting I just noticed.
Just tried Megaman X2 and X3 and those games run perfectly.
Color me confused.
Yea, SNES9x plays better with less glitches, but has noticeable button lag. Took forever for me to beat DKC, especially the mine cart stages.
Im sorry to hear about your problem mate but mine seems to run all of the games perfectly smooth. Ive had no such issues yet regarding the snesoid emulator.
If you feel strongly about it I would suggest trying out a new sexplay.
Also note the programs you have running in your running services log. Something there may be interfering with your gameplay. I can't seem to use Swiftkey X on my Xplay as it causes lag that kills the experience on nearly every game I play.
But the button lag is something you will have to deal with on any XPlay and SNES9x. Unfortunate, and hopefully will be fixed by the author at some point.
Is there button input lag with Snes A.D (free emulator on market) ?
Could someone test it for me ? I'm supposed to get the phone next week, and I chose it especially for emulation so I'd be disappointed if there are any issues with SNES games.
Have had not any issues with these games.
I use SnesOid and TigerSNES - both free.
same here,gensoid running silky smooth,fpse running perfectly fine,tiger arcade for th e most games also good,but imho useless cause no dip switch access or neo geo rom settings(tried that mame4all but no thanks,seems it support only legacy roms,don`t wanna convert all my roms for that program,the few that were running on mame4all were also laggy)
but snesoid(latest version) isn`t running good,as i stated in another thread.
for example super castlevania 4,it doesn`t matter if frameskip is on or off,set to manual or auto,it`s far away from running smooth,there is a slight stuttering when you look at the background as your character moves forward-also numerous other games..tried snes 9x or what is called,realized it doesn`t load any of my snes roms because it cant read .zip files,only .smc and even with .smc it won`t open some roms.i`ll try this tiger snes now
Hated SNES A.D. looking for a good emu right now too.
when u complain about noticeable input lag in snes9x, what kind of games are u playing? ive never really had any issues with it since its around a 10th of a second (tbh i doubt id ever of noticed it playing things like super metroid)
all of my games are in .zip files and ive never had any issues with the emulator at all, destroys snesoid imo. i do hope that the input lag is fixed, but overall i think its a much better emulator than anything else available.
I sure would like to try snes9x.... can't find it though! Little help?

i noticed just earlier after i posted realizing i hadn't received an update in some time. It appears to have been removed from the market, odd considering that all his other emulators are still there and one of his main selling points was compliance with the gpl of snes9x (the reason it was free as opposed to his other emulators)
the website is http://www.explusalpha.com/home
Robert Brogalia is the devs name, check out his other apps, they all get fantastic feedback.
Oh my god! This emulator is amazing! Everyone get it. This should just come on the phone..... LOL
Sent from my R800a using xda premium
u can change the dpi of the menus, turn off that shocking linear filtering that snesoid and all them use(i like me some retro blockiness) and it doesnt appear but when scrolling through lists thumb scroll works just fine.
Looks like I have to start over on Zelda, guess the saves are different from snesnoid. So worth it though.
Sent from my R800a using xda premium
u just have to change the extention to the same one used in snes9x...if i recall snesoid uses .sav, snes9x uses .sma or something, i got all mine working so if u fiddle u should get it, afaik quicksaves are a no-go however, just the battery backup works.
Snesoid is based on the snes9x source anyway......

if people are finding solutions that work better for them thats a good thing, i dont care if the source is the same, i find it to be a better emulator. i will say i initially bought all yonghz apps including n64oid.
Goping back on topic i just got myself a Play today, and i have major problems with games on gameboid, genesoid, snesoid theyw ill jump around and skip frames. I know why it's becuase it has frameskip set to 2 by default. If i set it to 0 then the audio produces an annoying stuttering and clicking. I just don't belive this ive seen thousands of videos showing th performance and sound of the games and its perfect. Ive even rooted and stripped my Play of some apps too. Now im really at wits end this thing wont emulate any game perfectly... What can i do????

Trust me mate, I've tried everything on both of my Xperia Plays. One stock, and one overclocked to 1.6ghx with CyanogenMod 7.
I'm at the same stage... I set games to 0 frameskipping and most games run perfectly, however if I enable the sound I get this horrible crackle (and with TigerMAME 3.0.3 noticable lag spikes - which is a damn shame). I think most of these emus need optimising for Xperia Play.
'Perfect' is such an over-used term these days... However these are the best emus of the bunch in my opinion... Trust me, I'm extremely anal when it comes to emulation.
TigerMAME 3.0.3 - With sound disabled can run games like Gigawing and Mars Matrix perfectly. I really hope the audio can be optimised. I'm currently playing the above two games with my own music playing in the background until then. Also, I believe older versions of Tiger run more games than this release...
MAME4Droid - Good for games which fall under the old MAME romset. Most games run smooth with audio (a lot of older games run perfectly) and the amount of CPU/audio customisation is unrivaled.
SNES9X EX - Runs games perfectly (excluding the Mode-7 heavy titles), with only slight audio crackle... Hoping for this to be resolved soon.
MD.EMU - The best Genesis/Megadrive emu around, same dev as SNES9X EX. Does the job where others fail (ie: near perfect Sonic 3 performance). Some audio problems here also.
GBAoid - Seems to work perfectly with everything I've tried. I need to put more research into GBA emu.
I have a problem with the Snes emulators, The thing is, None of them work.
i've tried every emulator available, and all of them do not work.
The app opens and the menus are fine, but when i open any game i get a black screen and that's it.
The only game that worked for me so far is a hack of Super Metroid, And it worked on all the emulators.
the games i have tried so far:
Super Metroid.
Mortal Kombat 1,2,3 and ultimate 3.
The only game i really want to work is super metroid.
I use Snesoid and don't have any problem. Maybe the problem is your ROM files. Try download the elsewhere.
What format are the files you are trying?
I finally got it to work.
I found out that the problem was with the files type. It must be .SFC not .SMC
Thanks for helping.
.smc files should work too. 90% of my files are .smc and they work perfectly fine.
SNESoid FC's on me, so I started using SuperGSNES I think it's called. It's available in the market. It works just fine for me running r800a stock 2.3.4
SNESDroid is the best, try downloading different formats for your games
Is there anyway to get it running better? As the gnex is a top end device I would've expected most games to play very well so is this a hardware issue or the app? There is only Mario kart that I can get at a playable level.
On stock rom mario Kart plays just about perfect but on custom (gummy) although the video is OK the audio cuts every few seconds

it may be your ROM... i know i was having similar troubles and i used a different ROM and it worked better
Hi there,
About 12 hours ago I installed FPSE from the Play Store. I staretd playing Spyro the Dragon and also FF7. On my google Nexus one, FPSE (Older version) worked perfect with FF7. On my SGS3 with the latest version of FPSE it seeeemmmmsss tooooo lllaaaaaggggggg, both video and sound. Sound is also very choppy. I have installed FPSE and the Roms on my phone inbuilt memory, maybe it needs to be put on my SD card to work better?
Is this happening with anybody else? I searched and found this and they seem to be having the same problem as me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692174&page=3
But that is in the Galaxy Nexus forum, not here the SGS3 forum. Is it the emulator, the phone or app? Is FPSE not optimized for SGS3? I am not rooted, have ICS and have the 16GB unlocked version.
Another problem im having is with the on screen directional joystick/controller/pad. When I move my character around (in either game) it stops as if my finger is no longer touching the direction it wants to go. Hard to explain sorry.
All help is greatly appreciated
***If this is in the wrong section, could somebody please move it to the correct one***
Have you tried playing around with settings? Try OpenGL emulation, I think I used that and it runs well, but try different settings and you should get it up and running well.

Thanks for the idea. I was playing around with the settings last night but there was no change. I did what you suggested by downloading the OpenGL emulation through the FPSE menu, but now my ingame cursor has gone so I have no idea what im clicking on. Help please
psxdroid works flawlessly while running games off my class 10 microSD card. I've played FF9 and other psx games withouty issue what so ever. So my advice is try using psxdroid
My specs:
200/1600MHz Undervolted by 75mV
PhantomGamer's AOKP Build 3.
Vlads AOSP kernel v4

Cheers mate. Now using Psx4Droid and works fine with FF7 unlike Fpse.
It's because of FPSe. I remember a very old version which worked flawlessly with FF7 (which is a pain in the rear to emulate) on most hardware while the newer versions of FPSe breaks FF7.

Yeah. Worked great on my Nexus one, but not on SGS3.
