Psx4droid

So I got the psx emulator even though the slide probably isn't the best device to be running the app on. Tried a few of my fave games and the larger roms (like GT2) are slightly laggier then the smaller ones (like Spyro 2). This is probably normal due to size.
I know this is the first release so its not a well pollished app but how much better do you folks think its going to get for us slide users? And is this the same experience the rest of you are having?

took the app from 4shared.com amd game won't load. buying it tommorow tho, but it shouldnt run horrid thinking it might run smooth actually, not a fan of how you have to get the roms but hey it ps1 on the go right?
Update: Looks like my Bios was the issue, but works fine now. Games are pretty laggy tried overclocking but not sure it worked out to well, need to try something else. only tried spyro playable but not normal game play like you'd want. Wish we had hummingbird in this! *drools over keyboard* If FF7-9 work good enough for me then. but maybe in the future once its more polished it could become better but playing fighter games or very actiony games maybe not "amazing". Price you must pay for owning a mid-range device.

the games are wayyyy too laggy for slide imho. i just stick with the good ol snes emulator.

I think its the emulator that needs some work because I have heard it runs crappy on the Evo too, but for a work in progress you have to admit that its pretty impressive to be able to load a PSX game onto your phone. I have tried a bunch of different ROMs and so far the only one that is playable is Resident Evil Directors Cut.

I just downloaded this, but I'm enjoying it. It's laggy, but I think the fact that it's even possible is amazing.
I've been watching the psx4droid wiki(can't post a link yet) and another forum. Just checking out to see people's experiences with certain games. I think most of the people that are sharing on the wiki have a bit more mhz than us, but it kind of gives me an idea which games will be ok to run.
I've got FF7 right now and it's definitely laggy, but playable. Sound a bit on the staticy side. Downloading Breath of Fire III, Xenogears and Resident Evil 2.
I'm reading the Resident Evils should be better since a lot of the graphics are pre-rendered and mainly the characters and npcs are 3D.
Running stock, btw. Holding out for 2.2 before determine if I'm going to root.

Unfortunately RE2 runs too slow but RE Directors Cut runs well enough to play and the sound isnt terrible. So far thats the best I can find, well Tetris Plus runs fine but there are better Tetris games you can play in the market.

Ah crud. Well I'll probably be trying more things to see what is great. I wasn't really too excited about RE2 anyways. I never really had a PSX, so I didn't play a lot of these games. Of course I could just do it on the PC now, but... well, I do enjoy the slide.

About halfway through disk one of Final Fantasy 7. The game runs perfect on Fenix 1.8 OCed to 844mhz. Zero lag. The only issue is the sound but I usually play it in public places anyway so it's not a deal breaker for me. Even bust out the WiiRemote for a controller sometimes at home

[Q] Angry Birds is too slow on my htc magic

It is installed on a class 4 sd card. Anyone has similar issue?

Try moving it to your internal memory. If it doesn't help, disable compcache and try again - and after taht if no luck yet, try clearing it's data.
I've not played it in a few weeks since I'm playing with ROMs.. But other people (@CM Forums) have said this helps them a bit.

The game is buggy itself, the phone is not a reason. I have the same Mytouch 3G, tried a lot of tweaks or methods described in different forums, but no effect, so the game is removed until a normal version comes out

There is an optimized version somewhere on the xda forums that gets rid of the ads and makes the game somewhat more playable on mytouch. It's being given out by Impaled.

The version Impaled dished out has ads again. The developer asked that he put them back in and he complied. I have the ad free version (b4 Impaled removed it) and my experience with it is the same: laggy and pretty much unplayable.

I think it has a lot to do with very little ram...
I downloaded the market gersion on my mytouch 1.2 and its laggy but playable.
But then again im using cm6.1, jit, comcache 18% and the vm heap size is 12m
also using ezterrys kernel with a 614 oc

I managed to install the game in the internal memory, but still slow.

i am still on 1.3.5 and with 28 radio it is alot better. get adfree, all my ads are gone.

or better yet like i posted in another thread before. Theres a game called Panda Vs Ninja its literally like Angry birds but runs perfectly smooth! Same gameplay just different characters.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848701

Pandas versus Ninjas plays the same as angry birds on my phone. Playable, but slows down during particle effects and heavy physics processing. I have to close everything and turn my clockrate up for it to play perfect.
it would be funny if someone "skinned" it with angry bird textures/sounds.

hmmm when i play it , it runs smoothly and barely slows down.
and yeah that would be pretty neat for someone to skin it hahaha

I'm very picky when it comes to running games and I will discard a game even if it has slight choppiness. PvN does run better than AB in the like that when it slows down it seems to go into a smooth slo-mo as oppose to AB going into choppy slo-mo, when there is a LOT of physics processing going on.

PvN is great on my MT3G 1.2 (rooted w/ Universal Androot and running CM6.1 RC1) and I actually prefer this over Angry Birds, mainly becuase I like the theme. But I would also download if there were an AB skin.

For me newest version (1.4.2)of Angry Birds laggs to much, version 1.3.5 is still the best one working

Angry Birds looks bad on my Xoom

Both the regular version and Seasons. It starts to look blurry and a little choppy…kind of like there is a problem with the screen refresh rate. Not 100%, bit I think it happens when the ad pops up. Sort of strange because Dungeon Defenders, Maps, YouTube...all play sharp and clear.
(Weird too, because Birds never looked bad on the gTablet.)
Anybody else having this?

Looks good on mine.

Looks great on my xoom. It has already been optimized for xoom. That's the 1st game people play when they take my xoom for a ride

I noticed the same thing. After 10 minutes or so of playing it gets choppy. Now sure if its the ads as I use adblock and dont see any.

I have been playing Angry Birds Rio and it looks great on the XOOM. Got it for free from Amazon.com

I agree. Rio looks really good on the zoom. Seems they upped the graphics because it does look better then the previous versions.

I would have to agree as well. But the other angry birds look pretty good on my Xoom and I don't really notice any choppiness.

mine looks good also. is there a way to get rio working without the amazon app?

I went ahead and laid down 99 cents for both the original and seasons versions of Birds on the Amazon app store. Both look better now that they aren't trying to cohabitate with the ads. Was worth the money, although the paid versions still take you to the Rovio news page when you pause the game or access it's menu, and that's even more annoying than the ads were.
+1 on Rio looking awesome!

[Q] Any good games that can actually run on the hero?

Saw a thread way back but it was for the gsm hero I believe, what games do you play on your hero?
Currently tried
Slice it-Very laggy might uninstall
Air Control(lite)- Kinda fun and a good time killer, runs smoothly.
Angry Birds Rio- lags like mad
Going to check out robo defense next

angry birds will lag on heroes

Yup!, just tried and took forever to load.

Game dev story runs fine.

Android: It will make you a sexual tyrannosaurus, just like me.

Zenonia 3 is pretty good for me. Little lag but its still very playable.

Majesty. Its a great RPG with good graphics. Its a little short though

TIC TAC TOE and Hangman ROCK on the Hero!

2d games are choppy

Anyone else having this problem with the One? 2d games run fine but every 5-10 seconds they suddenly get choppy for a second and then go back to full frame rate. I noticed this is mostly happening on games that I guess are iOS ports like angry birds and cut the rope. Is it just because they games aren't optimized properly for quad core processors or is there something going on with my One?

I had heard that this was a bit of an issue on some 2D games, but I haven't come across it yet. Been playing loads of Sonic CD and it runs like butter. My guess is that a future update will iron out these few kinks. The rest of the phone doesn't seem to stutter so it's obviously not a hardware/processor issue.

I had this problem with Bad Roads. Contacted the dev and he fixed the issue very quickly.

Yes, it must be the game which is not optimised for One's cpu.
