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: | |||

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). | |||
