== PS1 | ==PS1 GPU emulation== | ||
That part of all 3 emulators is quite impressive. Task is split between 4 SPE cores, but not in usual way. | |||
Every core is responsible for different part of PS1 GPU command flow, which is done dynamically. All that is linked by so called sli (spu link?), and all SPE cores run exactly same elf file. | |||
SPE program synchronize using sliTick, and sliTock functions with use of channels 16 - 24, and with help of PPU. | |||
That way 4 different PS1 GPU emulators can proceed 4 different PS1 GPU commands at the same time, with synchronization enough to not override other PS1 GPU tasks. | |||
As a example you can remove dithering by patch only on SPU0, and observe that only 1/4 of displayed lines will be missing dither pattern. | |||

==PS1 rom handling== | |||
Current version of ps1_rom file is first 512KB of 1.90 PS2 rom. Previously it was exactly the same version but whole 4MB were supplied to emulator.<br> | |||
Since firmware 2.10++ all PS1 emulators, ps1_emu.self, ps1_netemu.self, ps1_newemu.self uses the since then added ps1_rom.bin bios file. In earlier firmwares file was embed into every emulator self file. File '''ps1_rom.bin''' is exactly the same file that was previously embed in all PS1 emulators. | |||

===Region patch=== | |||
All 3 emulators perform bios patching right after file is loaded into memory. Patch is related to region lock, and is unknown that its responsible for anything else, like timings etc.<br> | |||
There is a string in emulator JJJJAEJEAEJJEJJA which is selector for bios/rom region based on target ID ([[Product_Code]]). | |||
<pre>J J J J A E J E A E J J E J J A | |||
0x80 0x81 0x82 0x83 0x84 0x85 0x86 0x87 0x88 0x89 0x8A 0x8B 0x8C 0x8D 0x8E 0x8F</pre> | |||
Patch apply to string in VERSTR, '''X''' is replaced with appropriate region: | |||
<pre>System ROM Version 5.0 06/23/03 X | |||
Copyright 1993-1999 (C) Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. | |||
</pre> | |||
Is worth to note that '''X''' is always on the same offset in ALL ps1 bios versions, and all ps2 bios images. So in case of bios swap | |||
([[Talk:PS1_Emulation#ps1_rom.bin]] ) correct region will be still set.<br> | |||
Patched offset is 0x7FF52 in rom file itself. Cobra have region free patch that in the end make X set to A (America) region, which apparently make bios region free. This can be true as similar thing happen on PCSX2 in ps1 mode. US rom is able to run all regions games, while JPN/EU fail to load different regions. It is because later JPN/EU BIOS versions have got an additional CD licence check introduced, accepting only the discs matching the hardcoded region. US BIOSes have never got this check implemented. By the way, it is the same thing with the PS2 BIOSes - only the US one will accept the discs from all over the world by default (that is why you have to patch the MECHACON for the US DTL region to get true region free playback). | |||
==PS1 games management in multiman== | |||
=== Manual starting SELF method === | |||
#Insert PSX/PSone disc (region/pressed doesn't matter) | |||
#Start MultiMAN (e.g. 2.07.01++) | |||
::*Since 02.07.05 the PSX and PS2 discs are properly detected. PSX discs will show in XMB Game Column and you can launch the PS1 game from there. It uses ps1_emu.self default (you can choose Load or Load (Net), latter uses ps1_netemu). | |||
#Switch to filemanager mode | |||
#Browse to /dev_flash/ps1emu | |||
#Select either one of the ps1 emulation SELF files | |||
Note: Some games run better with ps1_emu.self (e.g. Mortal Kombat) while others run better with ps1_netemu.self (e.g. Resident Evil 3). If it doesn't work, try another ps1 emulation SELF file. | |||
Downside: memory card options are unavailable unless you created a Virtual Memorycard ''before'' starting MultiMAN (XMB::Category Game:: Memory Card Utility (PS/PS2) > Create a PS1 memory card. Set it to Slot 1 (Press Triangle while selecting the Memory Card, then Assign it). Note: naming it "Internal Memory Card" sometimes works better than other names. MultiMAN 02.07.07 seems to solve the savegame issues. | |||
=== Changes in MultiMAN 2.07.00/01 for ps1_emu handling === | |||
These options where needed to make above work: | |||
* Added: LV2 access rights to use LV1 Storage Manager (syscall 864) | |||
* Added: LV1 patch for user access to sys_storage functions (syscalls 600 to 623) | |||
