PSX4ALL IOS 6

Takeone · 02-07-2013, 05:15 PM

Does anyone have psx4all working on IOS 6? I've got the ROMS to run, but they just emulate black screens, I'm sure that the ROMS running they play the videos of the rom but the game doesnt play once the videos are done so I don't think it would be too hard to fix this..

Now that the evasion jailbreak is out, I'm sure alot of people would like to see the emulaters working. ZODD should give a opensource out on his emulator, because i remeber it emulateing and running well even for the higher quality games.

Edit: also what are people useing instead of insalious because the old repo dont work

I have been searching for the past few hours on a fix for this. My psx4all was working perfectly on iOS 5.1.1, but after I updated to iOS 6.1, the video stopped working. I cannot find a fix for this, and it is not even iOS 6 specific, as I have found evidence of it happening on iOS 5. I cannot find a solution for it anywhere, and I'm going to try and restore my phone and re-jailbreak to see if that helps, but other than that I have exhausted every other method.

(Also, AppCake is an alright alternative to instal0us, though it needs some upgrades to UI and such)

---------- EDIT ----------

Before restoring my phone, I decided to try and tweak with the settings of psx4all. Sure enough I discovered that turning on smooth scaling fixes the issue and allows you to play your psx games perfectly (or as good as you'll get with a phone emulator).

Also, I take back what I said about appacake, it is terrible. I had a pretty good Chinese Instalu0s before I updated but I cannot remember the name of it, and it's really bumming me out

Smooth scaling did nothing for me. Dang. Got my hopes up. I've been trying to run digimon world 3 on my ipad and all I get is a screen that has DMW3 logo and its not even properly scaled. Every other game I've tried is just black screen. I have bios and everything...hmmm..

what games work for psx4all and what kind of performance/frame rates are u guys getting? I have the other emulators but never bothered with this one as the N64 emulator I tried sucks so I assume this one would too.

I put bios in both /applications/psx4all.ap/ and mobile/media/ROMS/PSX/ and renamed the bios lowercase

I just tried what you said with smoth scaleing and it works fine now

thank you man hopefully that helps some people it made mine work fine now

I tried with no luck. What bios are you using?

Hehe came here to discuss PSX4ALL and found this

. Hopefully it will get up and working for i5 and iOS 6.1. Need me some PSX Action!

use ifunbox

to transfer the lower-cased bios schp1001 something into vars////mobile//media along those lines

its also the same folder where u drop ur games .bin and .cue file

theres a guide somewhere on youtube

vincamous · 02-08-2013, 08:02 PM

idk what I did but right when I had givin up I got it working. The lower case bios did the trick I think along with the smooth scaling. I'm pretty happy. Although I can't get it to run smoothly in portrait mode. The sound plays fine but the screen only loads when I press the 1x2x button. Weird. Believe ill make a thread about it. Anyways, thanks people

Got everything working (except landscape, but I don't really care about that anyway)

But I cannot get it to actually make a save state, does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Can't really play FF7 in one sitting, I'll need to save!

Thanks for your help!

I only have the bios (with all lowercase filename) in the roms folder and that seems to work fine. Landscape w&w/o sound works with smooth scaling and 2x enabled. Save states also work for me (as well as mem cards).

I struggled with v3 for ages but no matter what I adjusted, the screen remained black. As soon as I switched to v4 everything worked.

On the ipad4 the speed is reasonable, completely playable ff7 so far, with significant screen tearing. RetinaPad of course does not help with this (it isn't magic!)

P.S. if you are on the ipad4 like me, you might have noticed that the unecm binary needs to be recompiled for our processor. So until someone does that (or I break down and do it myself), I used dospad and the unecm dos binary as a workaround to unecm the image on my iPad.

I think the chinese app u were thinking of is vshare.
Cant for the life of me get crash bandicoot working.

Can anyone tell me with which settings to play tekken 3...

Thanks for the tips! I've been trying to get this working for awhile and it seemed like what I was missing was making sure all parts of the bios file were in lower case and then making sure the bios was in the psx4all folder and ALSO in the roms folder. Did these corrections and was able to play Chrono Trigger at full speed with sound.
