Description

Note: there are no PS1 emulators available in early Tool/DECR and Debug/DEX firmwares (does not have dev_flash/ps1emu or ps2emu folder. dev_flash/vsh/etc/version.txt & index.dat say: ¨ps1emu:NA@NA: ps2emu:NA@NA: ps2gxemu:NA@NA: emerald:NA@NA: bdp:NA@NA:¨).

Firmware changes related with PS1 emulation
  • Firmware 1.02:
    • Added ps1_emu.self
  • Firmware 1.70:
    • Added ps1_netemu.self
    • Added the ability to play original PlayStation format games downloaded from the PlayStation Store.
    • Added rumble functionality for USB accessories which support it when playing PS2 games.
    • Saved data from PlayStation format software now usable on both PSP and PS3 systems.
    • Backwards compatibility for PS1 and PS2 games was improved.
  • Firmware 1.80:
    • Ability to upscale PS1 and PS2 games
    • Ability to copy PS1/PS2 game saves from PS3 to Memory Cards using a Memory Card adapter.
    • Backwards compatibility for PS1 and PS2 games was improved.
  • Firmware 2.10:
    • Added ps1_newemu.self and ps1_rom.bin
    • Users can now play PS1 game discs on a PSP with remote play, PSP firmware version 3.50 or newer is required. (this feature was not announced).
    • Backwards compatibility for PS1 and PS2 games was improved (Update was also unannounced but evident in Sony's backwards compatibility search site).
    • Note: since 2.10++ all PS1 emulators, ps1_emu.self, ps1_netemu.self, ps1_newemu.self uses the since then added ps1_rom.bin bios file.

Files

Emulator versions

There is no accurate info in wiki about the different PS1 emulator .self revisions, if you want to collaborate documenting this info see the experimental table on Discussion page

Game formats

See: PSISOIMG0000 and Iso.bin.edat

Savegames

  • Location: /dev_hdd0/savedata/vmc

Note: capitalisation of filename is important: name it xxx.VM1 instead of xxxx.vm1 (e.g. Internal Memory Card.VM1 for PSX/PSone, Internal Memory Card.VM2 for PS2/PStwo)

The .VMx files appear to be raw memory card data:

PS1 games management in multiman

Manual starting SELF method

  1. Insert PSX/PSone disc (region/pressed doesn't matter)
  2. 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).
  1. Switch to filemanager mode
  2. Browse to /dev_flash/ps1emu
  3. Select either one of the ps1 emulation SELF files

Note: Some games run better with ps1_emu.self (e.g. Motal 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)

Arguments handling

From multiman.cpp source (line 2502) http://code.google.com/p/multiman/source/browse/source/multiman.cpp?r=8c5b662f1c54d4f95f646949cae3d033b15b1a2e 

Code Sample
  • Notes:
    • The full screen commented argument seems to be the Upscaler setting available from XMB Settings ⇨ [Game Settings] ⇨ [PS/PS2 Upscaler], with values: full/normal/off = 2/1/0
