That is a screenshot(actually I just took a picture of my psp) of my Playstation 2 Psp project called "Psxxx", I recently started a new job which may prove to be too demanding for me to keep up with the homebrew scene; after making a few suggested improvements and cleaning up the code a bit; IM gonna turn it loose on world, and hopefully someone will develop a full featured emu.

I've been holding off on releasing a version of this and kind of keeping the development a secret because I wanted to wait until I had something worth showing anyone in the first place; Thanks go out to Zad3r for fixing many of my mistakes, and doing almost as much as I have for this project.

Theres two seperate zips, one regular and the other hard coded for FFVII isos(Three Seperate eboots).
the source for both will be included in the Zip they are tested and working for PSP firmware 1.5 only.

Features:
Optimized for Final Fantasy VII(USA)(3 disc)
(won't load "Greatest Hits" version)

* There is no audio support.
* Limited controls
* Many roms won't boot.
* Most other roms have serious graphics problems.
* Requires a Playstation Bios(not provided for legal reasons)

also what is a playstation bios?

[rizzles]

just think the playstation bios as its firmware
which is illegal unless you own a ps

[re4ryu]

oh is see.

a PS BIOS is the main 'Brain' of the whole ps, like the flash0 and 1 of a psp. they can be dld from the net but shouldnt be posted here for legal reasons.

Cool.....but where to DL this emu?

[Steve-O 2006]

sony is also developing a PS1 Emu :)

[TheBuzzer]

this is a ps2 emu i think

[pspumd]

REally ?! thats great ~ too bad dont get to try it yet. cant wait :rolleyes:

[AvatarDK]

Eh, the PS2 is more powerful than the PSP and therefore not possible to emulate on the PSP (at any useful speed that is).... When emulating something you have to be on a system approx. 10 times as powerful as the one you're trying to emulate which is why PS1-emulation will just be doable.....

[re4ryu]

yea this cant be a ps2 emu, its impossible.

[ShiNZ]

yea this cant be a ps2 emu, its impossible.
he think meant playstation-to-psp(Playstation 2 PSP):rolleyes: ...

[airborne]
