The hardware buttons work fine, also it's possible to map volume buttons as R2 and L2.

Unlike FPSe you can use and map the circle button normally (IMO).

Also the emulator has preview screenshots in Load State menu. :good:

The bad part: The game doesn't pause when you press the Menu button

Soul Reaver: The game flashes when you play it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
I have FPse installed and already map the volume buttons as R2 and L2. I also have no problem mapping the circle button. Though I've read people moaning about it, is that a problem related to ICS rom or something?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] shocito:
in FPSe the R1 and R2 buttons work fine, my only problem is the circle. I uninstalled it and reconfigure it and don't solve.

ePSXe work fine with the HW buttons and Castlevania SOTN and Thread of Fate.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
I'm aware of what you said the problem was. My question was, is it a general problem or one related to ICS? since I've had no such problem with GB.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] shocito:
I've Jelly2Bean 2.3.4 rom. But not problem, I put my trust in this emulator.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sfex3best:
What about the 2 player mode? it sounds awesome.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Darkbeats:
Very good emulator. Graphics aren't anything to write home about at the minute, but it's super reliable. Suikoden 1, which has sound skip on FPSE and native emulator, plays perfectly sound and all. All the 3D Final Fantasys too.

Haven't found a game that it doesn't play perfectly yet.

Working great on Samsung Galaxy SIII (USA Verizon SCH-I535 ICS 4.0.4), besides aforementioned audio hiccups.

Is there a way to use the analog sticks from my bluetooth gamepad?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Red_Kop:
This sounds good.

FPSE is good, but updates seem to make some games work better and some worse. Plus, I hate the way you have to mess with loads of options for each game. Was gutted when my complete Tekken 3 save went missing too.

Think I'll give this a go.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
FPse updates are the worst. I swear the dev breaks things in one update just to give himself something to fix in the next.

Quoted for humour...and also most probably truth. :laugh:

Yeah its always the same, after 1 or 2 months comes an update and the update itself he must update 3,4 times. And last time its more a "downdate" than a up.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] RennyC:
I'm happy about this since ePSXe is the best PS1 emulator bar none. I'll test it myself today, not a fan of fpse myself.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Darkbeats:
Breath of Fire 3 seems to work perfectly. No crash-on-healing like in fpse and lag/skipping like in the stock emulator.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Wahrheit:
Awesome :D I hope Xplay will run awesome.

Does parasite eve 2 works fine?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Red_Kop:
Did I imagine it or did Sony officially release Silent Hill as one of their PS1 Xperia Play titles?

If not, I think I'm going to play through on this. Hopefully no glitches or crashes.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] shocito:
Castlevania SOTN works without problems, almost perfect... better framerate than FPse.

Soul Reaver works with flickering when frameskip is activated, without it the game runs fine but laggy.

epsxe on android tutorial

Hey guys, can anyone pls Give me some instructions on how to use this app. I really dont know anything about bios and iso so it would be a great help. Thanks
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Solar.Plexus:
Just Google PSX bios if you want to learn. That's really all we're allowed to say.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Selim873:
Free emulator in the first place that I have to pay for to get on Android... If it's for the sake of the developers to keep going, I guess.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TheVicious:
I don't know why You guys say that epsxe is better then fpse... I bought epsxe, test LOTS of games - and conclusion is only one. Epsxe looks like one of first version of fpse. Almost all game works far much worse, options in epsxe are very poor (nothing about graphics and sound). Only for PES2 this emulator is better - works flaweslly with bios. Silent Hill display black screen after second movie in game. Tekken3 is far much laggy then on fpse. Diablo have chopped music and sounds. Rest works far much slower then on FPSE.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Darkbeats:
Legend of Legaia works well. Occasional lag and sound skip, but far less than FPSE.

Sound in general though is excellent with this emulator, on full sound it's fuller and much more accurate than FPSE. Seems to go louder too. Also games with notoriously difficult (presumably due to compression) to emulate sound are handled with ease. Suikoden 1 has sound loop every second on FPSE and stock, but EPSXE plays it perfectly smooth.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] shocito:
Version 1.7.8

I'm really surprised with SW filtering option... Unlike FPSe it runs GREAT in Xperia Play, almost without lag with frameskip enabled!!!:laugh:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Mysticales:
Ok just tried this, took a risk and bought it to test over fpse. Yea... on CM9 with my Xperia play. epsxe wins. No lag on the video playback (Tested with Lunar and Legend of Dragoon) fpse is nice, but stutters abit.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Mysticales:
Got some good news for us! Just emailed epsxe devs about something I felt we Xperia players need. I requested that for the controller overlay (Thats shown on screen for control) To just make it only where L2/R2 icons are shown. Then remove the rest. (Since we xperia users use the hardware buttons and all we needed was L2/R2) They said they would add this feature. =)

Also made a side suggestion to allow that L2/R2 to be on top or bottom. Since your thumbs could EASILY touch the bottom of the screen to access L2/R2. So woot! =D This would make this a complete solution for us Xperia users without having the bulk of the full controller on screen as well.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] asnos2:
great emulator. Good sound, faster, better graphics options ... etc. working in elf II.

saved games do not work
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Darkbeats:
Latest update is amazing!

Gundam Battle Assault 2 no longer CTD and runs smoother than FPSE with way better sound. FFVII sound fixed and looks/plays wonderfully. Generally smoother on all games now.

Software filtering gets a bit laggy on Legaia, especially on the World map, but for many games it makes a vast improvement for little performance trade off. PSX dithering looks good and I haven't noticed any slowdown at all.

Best emulator by far, just needs a few more games enhanced and a cheats option imo.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] clivejefferies:
Looks good from what I have seen.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] eros78:
Wooow. Just tested 1.7.8. This is a great emu. Cant wait for xperia virtual pad support. This plays re-volt with working audio tracks. It seems that every game I try works better. I'm sure there are some that don't, but so far so good. I hear the complaints about options but who needs all of those options if the game works. Another game is pro-pinball. Works better than fpse. I believe that this is a good start for the epsxe team!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] torsti:
Like to play parasite eve 2. Does it work after the Akropolis tower? (dryfield) fpse don't load the cut scene and stops)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TheVicious:
Which pro-pinball You use? My favourite Timshock! works but have lots of graphical glitches (ball leave smudges). On FPSE works like in 120fps and glitches are same as in epsxe. I'm still doesn't see anything better in epsxe then fpse. Test Tekken 3 or Colin Mcrae Rally 2 - both game works far worse then in fpse.

Options are very important - because You can make game works better with diffrent settings.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cyraxx84:
Yeah Night Raid works(fpse not).

The first time i see this game working on android and at full speed!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] eros78:
I am playing Fantastic Journey. It does have graphical issue with the screen not refreshing as the ball travels...but much better than that on FPSe.

I agree that options are important for a emu, but I do feel that the closer you get to emulating the system the less options you need. I played with all the option in FPSE and nothing fixed the ball and speed issues in pinball or the audio tracks not playing in Re-Volt.

Also, I have to admit. I loaded Soul Edge and Street Fighter EX2+ and the audio latency is substancial. Maybe one whole second. The low latency option seems to change the sample rate making the audio playback slow as if it had been chopped and screwed. Plaaaaaaayyerrrrrrrrr Onnnnnnnnnneeeeeee Wiiiiiiiiiins!

All in all its a great start and I can't wait to see the improvements that will be implemented.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Wahrheit:
i hope next version will bring Xperia play support...then you can take my money =3
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cyraxx84:
What do you mean? Because the only thing that doesn't work are the touchpads but every other button could be mapped like on most other emus!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Mysticales:
That and they already said they would add the feature to put L2/R2 on screen so we dont need the full controller overlay on screen just for 2 buttons.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DevilMind007:
Will it work on Samsung Galaxy Ace??

can it play Final Fantasy 7??
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] james44422:
I doubt very much it would work on the Ace, I had one before my play and the play is a behemoth in comparison.

I played FF7 to completion on my play but I was using the internal emulator (at the time FPSE wasn't good enough and ePSXe hadn't been released.

Most games can now run smooth on FPSE at least (I find it to have better compatibilty than ePSXe). I have played all the crash bandicoots and Mobil 1 Rally all the way through using FPSE. I haven't tried FF7 on FPSE since may, since the FPSE has come a heck of a long way since then though so i'm sure it would have no problem, I tried FF8 and Chrono Cross but they were both just a bit too slow.

But I dont think the ace would really be up to the task though
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Mysticales:

Can't see roms after downloading them. Is there a place they need to be put to become visible through game loader? Or maybe a file name change that needs to be made? Droid razr maxx ics. Help please would be appreciated. Maybe some info to a site with clear cut instructions since it seems answering questions for this emu is cloak and dagger.

For the love of god, how do you turn on analog sticks on this?

Works really great on my Sensation but without analoge sticks most games are unplayable. Can't even drive a straight line in GT2 without.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Red_Kop:
Most games are unplayable?

For the majority of it's life, the Playstation didn't even have anaologue sticks.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sjaak1234:
Uhh it did. PSX launched december 1994, in april 1996 the introduced the dual analog controller and and in 1997 they started shipping the dualshock controller as standard controller. The ps2 launched in 2000 so yes, it sold with a dual analog controller for most of the time.

Besides, the pc version has analog controller support so why the hell doesnt the android version have it? There isnt any technical reason.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Darkbeats:
Saying "most games don't work" is hyperbole at best. I literally can't think of a single game in my 50+ PSX library that I can't play on ePSXE due to lack of analogue sticks. Why? Because even with the analogue controller being available early in the PSX's life, most games either didn't employ it at all or didn't make it mandatory because many people didn't have one.

Seriously I'm drawing a blank here. Ape Escape? What else can't you play? The PSX has a library of 2418 games, if analogue controller is an absolute requirement for even 1/10th of that I'd be highly surprised.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Red_Kop:
Please list the games that 100% require dual analogue stick then get back to me.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cityhunter62:
lol stop fighting, that's not the aim of this thread ;)

I did not have this dual analogue controller issue so far with the games I play.

Plus I tend to prefer the D-Pad over the touchpad. Touchpad is not really precise I think. Except for moving the camera around, but not for controls.

Anyway, I was wondering if there is any way to transfer the memory card saves from FPSE to ePSXe? Is there any way to convert them?

I've played FF9 through the first 3 CDs on FPSE but I'd like to switch to ePSXe for the fourth CD, but I dunno how I can transfer my saves from one emulator to the other...

Thanks for your help!

has anyone gotten game shark codes to work? I attempted to use a few for castlevania symphony but they didn't seem to work at all.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] shocito:
The hardware mode runs better :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] lazy_fiend:
Yes you can. I have done this already, just rename your mcd file in fpse to /sdcard/epsxe/memcards/epsxe000.mcr (for slot 1, or epsxe001.mcr for slot 2). You can use those memory card editors (like memory card manager) too if you want to copy save files instead.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] shocito:
You can use Memory Card Manager 1.3a to transfer a save to another memory or change the format.

I can't seem to get my Gold Dualshock ps3 controller to work with this. I am attached with a cable, and can keymap everything, but when I try to start a game, nothing happens. I know the controller works since my NES emulator works perfectly. Any suggestions? My phone is a GS3.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Astiolo:
I had that problem with one game but tried another and it worked fine, could it be the ROM?

Is there any way to map the analogue sticks? Most of the games I want to play need them.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Bakisha:
For all those who use multiple mem cards for saves, either ePSXe or FPSE, there is an old program at http://www.aldostools.org/memmanager.html for managing memory cards. Easy to use, just drag and drop from explorer, and save in correct format (mcr for ePSXe and mcd for FPSE).
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Astiolo:
Can someone seriously address the issue with mapping analogue sticks? I can get analogue working on screen but in the mapping options you can't seem to map any analogue axes.

I'm finding it really frustrating because the only emulator that seems to be able to do analogue (FPse) is being really buggy. ePSXe is the only one that seems to work properly for me (on my Nexus 10) but I can't get external analogue input working.

Is it possible? If not, is someone working on it?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] bsmack:
Same issue. Can map everything no problem, as soon as I go into the game nothing works.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] postermen:
I finally figured it out. Controller 1 settings: Pad Type PSX - Digital (only), Pad Type- TouchScreen (Virtual), Pad Draw Mode- None

I also had to press the playstation button on the controller.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] FluffyCow:
This works to convert psx4droid memcard files as well, though you just rename the front to epsxe. Psx4droid has the format 001 for card1 and 002 for card2.

Analog Help from ePSXe devs.

Not sure if this has already been tried but I couldnt find it.

I emailed the developers of ePSXe in regards to the dual analog stick issue.

Here are the step-by-step instructions.

Hello,

0) If you connect the joystick with Usb and you have android 3.1+ continue in step 1. If it is by bluetooth, see xbox controller app or similar name on google play. (and after installing go to step 1)

1) Test whether the pad is working on Android. Install an app called "josticks tests", run it and moving the sticks, you should see values on screen. (android 3.1+ required).

2) If the previous step was right, run epsxe, preferences->controller 1-> map buttons (and map your buttons, firsr you have to set sixaxis controller on preferences->input methods) and preferences-> controller 1-> map axis (and choose your pad in pad id, and choose your joystick profile if it is available - try ps3)

3) preferences->controller 1-> pad type psx-> Dual shock

4) Run a game. Be careful some games arent dualshock compatibles in the playstation (check psxdatacenter.com to check if the game is compatible).

I havent tried doing this yet on my emulator. (deleted Ape Escape because I thought I'd never be able to play it)

I'll update if successful, or if this works for anyone else, please, do share.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] acrossy:
Are they serious? You say Dual analog stick issue... aka Touchpad support for the Xperia Play (since this IS a Xperia Play sub forum I have to assume you are talking about it! If not... wrong thread!) and they start buzzing about joysticks hardware? interesting...

I just wish ePSXe team would get a grip and start working on implementing touchpad support for Xperia Play users... on GB at least :P

I mean... if the "Gamekeyboard" dev and the FPSE devs did it, well, why not the ePSXe team also?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Jammz:
They are doing so. I am helping them as a beta tester right now and it is already working. Look at their twitter for proof. So stop fighting with GameKeyboard ... next release will (at least i think so !) include touchpad support :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] acrossy:

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] brsingr:
I'm thinking of getting a emulator for psx games I have due to ease of changing games around due to space constraints, should I wait bit longer for an update to this or get FPes? The games I play are command and conquer, the spyro trilogy, digimon worlds 3, and the tony hawk series....which of these 2 has the best compatibility for all of these games? Seeing as this one hasn't been updates in a month, and fpse was just updated 3/29, which is better for r2 and l2 support? (Volume button are bad for mapping hehe.

IF this should be asked in a separate thread under Q&A, I can do so. Just didn't want a huge flame fight or w/e that drama is heh.

Scuse me for my poor English but i want to share this:

I have a S3 and a Play. Since i have S3, i use epsxe with Open GL plugin. I wasn't satisfied by the filter but since i found this it's awesome! Before all, activate OpenGL in the settings. After had restart the emulator, load a game then press "menu", "Plus" and select "TogleGLConfig". In the menu on the top, select "save" to create a game config.txt.To improve filter go to sdcard0/epsxe/config and edit config files.txt with a text editor. Go to the line "iFilterType" and put "1" for accentuate filter or "2" for less and enjoy!!

I use this with FF VII, FF VIII, FF IX, Chrono Cross, Legend of Dragoon, Suikoden II and this improve graphic much better and games runs flawessly (just little lags in the battle scenes intro). For some games like Tekken 3 or Bloody Roar, i don't use filter with OpenGl, because games runs at 45 fps.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] brsingr:
Just bought this...wow does it feel nice to have a true psx controller now. (Via mapping Vol up and Vol Down to L2 and R2 respectively) Its fast, I can play on my phone or pc through copying memory cards, and it has massive compatibility.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] biozkop:
Memory card from fpse is useable too, just rename the file and its extention.

However, Save state file not interchangeable. Epsxe use image save state.
