anyone got FF tactics running? I don't know if mine froze after the Squaresoft logo or just has a tough time trying to boot the game

Yep! running fine here. Try getting another one or try and mess about with it

A lot of us have Blackberries already. Is BB Bridge w/+ BT keyboard supported? If not, can you add that and turn off the overlay? Perhaps a stretch, too.

WASD ...NJKM (X-TRI-SQ-O)...HY and LO for L1-R2

Catalsyg is it possible that once u right the code to optimiz Bluetooth keyboards they don't work right now but is it possible to have the emu recognized the actual pub as player one and the Bluetooth keyboard keyboard as player 2 and if ur thinking the 7 in screen is to small I could hook it up to my TV via HDMI also I went and looked up what cascades was and I don't understand what cascades has to do with Bluetooth controllers such as wiimotes,ps3 dual shocks etc

Technically one could add support, by using tco, a button = keypress
That keypress can be sent as say, z, which is hypothetically the key for x on the emulator.
In other words, entering z on a keyboard would do the same thing (sending command to enter x to the emu)
The bluetooth protocol used by keyboards is HID, and to expand upon that is impossible at this time (no api's, no changing/patching the bluetooth stack)
The only thing, and most people should be more than aware, is that keyboard support is possible, but unless one modifies the hardware of console controllers, they cannot connect in this current state.
Of course, one can look around for a bt controller that uses keyboard commands (z,x,c,etc)

it didnt work for me but try this

If you remove spaces and correct capitalization on a .BIN file, make your you edit the .cue file (you can use notepad) and update the filename for the .BIN file

thx but I did change it once I edited the title

[dosboxwasthestuff]

So there is no way to mount bt keyboard as player 2?

[JungleboyAL]

Is there way of incorporating audio cd files with the bin and cue files?
Games like rayman has nice background music, but I think those audio cd files need to be included in same folder or certain directories?
Same goes for some musical games and especially mortal kombat games too...
Need help... Thanks

It could be anything. I have yet to test mine out, but if you're getting the files elsewhere, it may be a bad rip. If not, and it's legal, then try ripping at a slower rate. Additionally, make sure the title is simple. FF7 FF9 TEKKEN3 etc

[PanaSama]

Exactly the same for me. Tried with three different games and same result. Nothing happens and I'm stuck to the main menu. All I can do at this point is to close the emulator.

Try deleting the CUE file and leave only the BIN.

I posted this a few pages ago
www.aldostools.org - Playstation Emulation Tools, Piano and Multimedia Software, Macro Recorder, Text-to-Speech, Memory Manager, Magnifier, Freeware, PDF Development Tool, Productivity Tools by Aldo Vargas by Aldo Vargas and www.aldostools.org - Playstation Emulation Tools, Piano and Multimedia Software, Macro Recorder, Text-to-Speech, Memory Manager, Magnifier, Freeware, PDF Development Tool, Productivity Tools by Aldo Vargas by Aldo Vargas are 2 programs i found if anyone's interested they allow u to mount the files in the folder \\PLAYBOOK-9382\media\misc\pcsx-rearmed-pb\memcards where your in game saves are located but basically u can convert normal ps1 saves and put them on your playbook using these programs fairly (straightforward) if ur wondering why u woud want to do this sites like gamefaqs.com post up save files 100 percent beat so instead of reabeating some of these classics u can play the levels u really liked (crash bandicoot 3 warped, crash team racing games of the sort) any questions if u understand what i said pm me

Thanks brother. Spent the whole night doing trial and error and finally got it to work already. My old Legend of Legaia and Legend of Dragoon saves have been on my external HD for a while and now they get some use!

But right now I'm playing...

[jmenfou]

It Worked! Thanks PanaSama

Ur welcome I'm going to make a video about side loading and running this seeing as u guys are having a lot of problems

[f1mx]

Thanks dud, will try downloading other bin later

[eyetic]

Tried many "The adventures of Alundra" .bin or .iso and it starts fine, but as soon as you click on "New game" game crashes, tried on PAL and NTSC, and also by changing the bios version..no way to make it work

Wild Arms game works well but it doesn't have ingame sound (Already tried the sound fix u mentioned).
Tell me how can i send u a bug report, or how do I make one

Thanks for this but its becoming to much of a pain... wasnt looking to spent ages on it so I will probably clear it of my playbook and get back to other things

[offthahorseceo]

i tried GTA2 a few times. tried multiple things with it, to no avail. so if thats what youre trying, that may be why its not working

[Catalystg]

So there is no way to mount bt keyboard as player 2?

No, it'll take time to add, and it's not high on my list.

WASD ...NJKM (X-TRI-SQ-O)...HY and LO for L1-R2

Not supported. That could be possible but it would take time. It'll be on my list but don't expect anything too soon. I don't like stretched games. I plan on making a cascades front end, which will allow more settings to be added cleanly.

Sorry should of been more clear. I like to listen to music while playing games and the game volume is higher than music volume sometimes. I was wondering if there was a way to lower just the emulator volume.

Not supported, it just uses the global sound.

Ok spend almost 4 hours today to try to get a game running.. so far no success..

I sideloaded the emulator, ran it the first time by its own to create the folders as instructed, got myself the SCPH1001.BIN, tried four bandikoot and two grand theft auto isos (removing space in the title and making sure .BIN and .CUE are capitals)

When I run the emulator, after entering the bios (sony logo appears and I am in the blue screen saying enter cd / menu etc), and I try to start the game, nothing happens .

The game title does appear with the .CUE ending but once I select it nothing else happens.

I was really excited to get this running as I would love to refresh childhood memories, however so far nothing but frustration. Hopefully one of you guys spots any stupid mistake I missed....

Don't enter the bios. Just touch the game you want to play and hit okay. If you have issues with the cue files, delete them from pb and just try bin. No renaming should be needed. I've never had to with 10+ games with brackets, spaces and all lowercase.

it didnt work for me but try this

If you remove spaces and correct capitalization on a .BIN file, make your you edit the .cue file (you can use notepad) and update the filename for the .BIN file

.BIN shouldn't be needed if your cue is setup to point to the right .bin file.

Before posting issues, please reread the first post. I've answered many of these questions about proper bin/cue formats.

Please get back to me as I've read this entire thread...How does disc swapping work? Don't want to beat disc 1 without knowing. Thank you!

I'm not 100% sure but you should get a prompt in most games to save at the end of disk 1. Then you just select disk 2 from the rom selector and load the save. Not sure on this though. Anyone care to clarify?

I've said this a few times and it's in the first post. That is the current process. Save when prompted before disc switch, swap with down gesture to disc 2, load and it'll work. Tested with FF9.

Ape Escape seems to boot and work fine, but it needs dual shock/stick support. Bah, too bad since it is one of my favorite PSX games. Can move the camera but can't move the person. Any chance we can have virtual dual sticks? Would be awesome to have that on the next update.

It's possible, but would require a fair amount of work and the screen will get cluttered very quickly. Having 2 sticks, shape buttons, l/r etc. I'm mostly interested in squaresoft RPGs so it's not high on my list.

If a game boots and crashes somewhere or audio cuts out that's probably beyond something I can fix if you've tried the cfg editing. I've ported the emulator. I didn't write it.

fyi i got GTA2 and Gran Turismo 2 to work by deleting .cue files

Can you open the cue in notepad that didn't work and check that the bin name in there is exactly the same as your bin?

it wont get cluttered if u increase transperency and fullscreen game and allow moving of buttons like other emus just some suggestions check out jtorack (srry dont know hot spell his name) and a7omics snes port they have a button for accesesing the rom selector and sliding down allows button movement
