Question & Answer

Please post your question here!

For rom file, search for the exact zip file name instead of cps2 rom.
For example, I found this site has a valid rom set for marvel vs capcom.

mvsc.zip

  2. dude whats the best frameskip on marvel vs streetfigter i keeps on lagging... i saw it on your video it works perfectlyt...

    ReplyDelete
  3. I set it to level 2 for 384mhz G1.

    ==================

    To me, GTalk process was #1 enemy which keeps coming back after getting shut down.

    So, try this.

    Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> Google Talk Service -> click "Force Stop"

    ==================

    Also, try to remove/stop any widget app from Home screen.

    This is power-hungry emulator which needs every bit of CPU/Memory!

  4. Hello jrioni (personal hero):

    Q: How will this emulator run on a WVGA device? Will it occupy half of the screen, or will you be able to release a version that takes advantage of the WVGA screen (stretches the image or something)?

    ReplyDelete
  5. it should scale to fit to the screen but...obviously i never tested..so don't know.

    even if there's a problem, it should be minor fix.

  6. Will this play cps1 games also?

    ReplyDelete
  7. no, cps2 games only.
    you can check out the game list at here.

  8. release it freely dude, all opensource stuff here.. really a shame that all pple who worked hard on projects you are getting paid, did it under gpl licence.. so sad.

    ReplyDelete
  9. 1. my product is fully compliant with license.
    2. cps2 source is NOT under GPL
    3. there are few asm files which require to contact the original author but I'm not linking to those files (and can't even reach him)

  10. Will you add trackball movement and touchbuttons? if you will when will it be out?

  11. I'm trying to play darkstalkers but the lagging is making the game unplayable. I got rid of gtalk, took off all my widgets, I don't have a lot of apps on the phone. I'm real close to just getting a refund please let me know what I can do

    ReplyDelete
  12. This week's update (should be before 8/1) will include touch control.

    For 2nd question, could you send me the log dump (also the build version if it's rooted phone)?
    1. connect it to your pc through usb
    2. run cps2+darkstalkers for ~3 minutes.
    3. adb logcat > log.txt
    4. email me this log.txt

    Or you can run adb logcat yourself and see which activity is being closed/reopened...etc.

  13. What rom download sites would you recommend besides rom-hustler? I have some that work from that hustler but I am have trouble with xmcota and mshvsf. Everytime it loads it comes up the graphics are a buch of blocky pixelated mush. I removed all widgets from my home screen but I still have my app shortcuts and wallpaper..... does that even matter?! Help.

    ReplyDelete

  16. Q. How do i download this roms to the T-mobile MyTouch. Everytime i try to download a ROM, it says that they aren't supported on my phone. I've only been to emulanium.com

    A. Android doesn't support *.zip file format by default. So, you need to download file manager or util app (eg. AndroZip)for this.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Whenever I open the game on the MyTouch, I can hear the music, and I can see the onscreen controls, but the graphics are all messed up, i can't see anything. How do i fix this?

    ReplyDelete
  18. where do i download adb logcat to check why my emulators laggin? you should have that link posted...

    ReplyDelete
  19. For maurice, it sounds like bad rom image.
    Which game are you trying to play?

    For adb, This one seems to be working fine.

  20. Q. curtis said...
    I can't get a good marvel vs capcom rom..any suggestions? Forsecloses everytime..

    A. Again, for mvsc, you need both mvsc.zip and mvscj.zip. You should be able to find it from different web sites. Please try it with different site if one doesn't work.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I downloaded a bunch of games. Marvel vs. Capcom, Street Fighter Alpha 3, giga wing, Armored warriors. None of them worked. I can hear the music, but I can't see anything besides the controls.

    ReplyDelete
  22. hi! i downloaded the abd zip file, but when i try to open logcat it'll open for a few seconds then close... you know why?

    ReplyDelete
  23. For maurice, where did you get your rom?
    please post a link for "giga wing" for me to test.

    On your side, please try this for testing. This one should work.
    http://www.blogforvideogames.com/roms/cps2/pfghtj.zip

    For adb, first make sure you enable "USB debugging" under settings->applications->development.

    When you run "adb logcat", it should print out all messages in history and waits for the next message.

  24. http://www.blogforvideogames.com/roms/cps2/gigawing.zip

    This is the link for giga wing. None of the ROMs from this site worked for me. I don't know if there is something that i haven't downloaded or what.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Oh yeah, i tried the pocket fighter game, and it still comes out blochy.

    ReplyDelete
  26. http://www.blogforvideogames.com/roms/cps2/gigawing.zip

    ReplyDelete

  30. hi im kinda of slow with this things... i tried to download MVSC from romnation like u said... both US and Japan but it just downloaded like 59k so it didnt work... i googled mvsc.zip and mvscj.zip and i founded...now i generate a cache file for the mvsc zip but it wont aloud me to generate one for the mvscj.zip, i tried to load the mvscj.zip but it didnt work....

    i wanna play this game really bad... can u please help me... im sorry but i didnt get all instructions... help me please i will appreciate!

    ReplyDelete
  31. what i dont get is the whole "generate cache" process... i have to look for the rom file and press "generate cache file" right? then what? i always had bad luck with emulators but i know is worth it if i can make it work.. thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  32. That's correct.
    If you generate cache file but can't play zip file, then that's most likely due to invalid zip file.

    I've put mvsc files (zip & cache) for testing only at here.
    http://jrioni.l4rge.com/misc/

    Copy them on your sd card and load mvscj.zip

    ReplyDelete
  33. Thanks for the help!!! I save the zip from the your link then I generated the cache and now works perfect! Hey Check the cache files because I clicked on them and they kinda messed up the brownser twice... thanks again man! Great work!!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Ok, i zipped cache files into mvsc_cache.zip.

    For others, please unzip this file and save them under your rom folder.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I downloaded MarvelSuperHeroes (msh.zip). From 3 different places I generated the cache and all of them passed but when I try to load it says that CRC32 is missing.... my question is if is the same as marvel vs capcom, do I need another zip to run this game? and if is the same do u have a list of roms that needs 2 zips? Or do u think is something else? Thanks!!!

    ReplyDelete
  36. yes, you need other clone file which doesn't need decryption.

    eg.
    1. save both msh.zip and mshu.zip.
    2. generate cache files for both.
    3. load mshu.zip

    ReplyDelete
  37. How I generate coche file we're please

    ReplyDelete
  38. For cache file, there is a button "Generate Cache File" to select and choose the rom file.
    Or you can use this PC tool to generate it from your PC and copy them over to your sd card.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Did you use your PC to download?
    There are many web sites using php download which Android doesn't support yet.
    Please use your PC to download and copy them to your sdcard.

    ReplyDelete
  49. (Continuation from post 12/28) I thought that would've solved my problem. Yeah my first attempt I just download them from my phone. But then I downloaded from my pc I even tried it several times. Still no luck with converting from the app. How would I convert using my pc? I've been sitting here for about two hours looking for tutorials on youtube but can only find tuts for psp. I just don't know where to find this "\romcnv\roms\" directory on my computer. Sorry I know I suck at this but I really am trying.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Ok...first, don't worry...it will work :)

    Second, let's go step by step.

    Which rom file are you trying?
    And where did you download it from?
    And what is the size of file reported from your PC?

  58. For cache generation, if it doesn't work, it's most likely the rom file is not compatible to this app.

    Please try to find a different set of that rom file.

  59. Hi Jrioni,

    I have the Milestone/Droid and every games works great but I have some control problems.

    For exemple in shooters... when I move left and right and hold the shooting button at the same time.... the ship randomly freeze in place instead of moving left and right making some game completely unplayable.

    It works well if I don't shoot.

    How can I fix that? thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  60. hi, have you tried disabling "Hotkey Down Mode Interface" from the option?

    ReplyDelete
  61. Hi jrioni, I recently got 2.2 (froyo) for my moto droid, will this boost performance in terms of more compatibility for roms? Or this is something that has to be done on your end?
    Also are you using the latest test version of gp2x as your emu's core? If not, would using the latest give a performance increase?

    ReplyDelete
  62. Hi, Yes I tried disabling "Hotkey Down Mode Interface" but I still have the same problem.... it has something to do with Multi-touch.

    Just try progear.zip for exemple.... hold the shooting button.... and try moving up and down.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Keven, did you also disable "Smart Motion Sending"?

    Shadow, I got my froyo updates also and see little performance boost...but not much.

  68. Hi there,

    I have not been able to work out how to assign commands to buttons on the HTC Desire. The button configuration seems to be totally random when playing games.. as in the two rows of buttons just seems to randomly cycle in function.

    Traditionally the 2 rows of buttons in a streetfighter game will have the top row as light, medium and heavy punch (from left to right) and the bottom row will be light, medium and heavy kick (from left to right).

    This configuration has not worked with Street Fighter Alpha 3 and I have had any success in playing Aliens Vs Predator because the buttons seem to screw up?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Jon
