PsfPlayer v0.51 and then some

Hello everyone. I've released version 0.51 of my PSF player. This version include several bug fixes, such as crashes happening with the Shadow Hearts PSF set and hang ups when seeking too fast in the play list. I also added ZIP and RAR archive support for those who like to keep their files all packed up in one big lump and also added automatic "discovery" of the song titles and lengths within a play list because it was a bit annoying to have to seek through all your files to see the titles. As always, it's available on the downloads page.
If you want to use the archive feature, I would recommend using ZIP files because seeking in a RAR file is an expansive operation. This is due to the design of the format and there's not much we can do about it. So if you can't bear the extra time it takes to load a PSF from a RAR file, simply switch to ZIPs :) On the PS2 emulator side, I've continued my work on making Final Fantasy X work again with the new JIT infrastructure. I've been able to go back to the state I was before I started this job. 
Next, I'd like to fix the crappy rendering I'm having in virtually all games that have 3D. I was thinking of creating a tool that would help me debug VIF command lists, because it's really hard to do so within the emulator. If I do that, I'll have to find some good test cases which will allow me to isolate the problems. A scene with only a character, like in the screen shot above, would probably be a good one. There might be some games which have simpler 3D stuff which I could use to debug my VU code. If I could get the games to display nicely with only minor glitches, I'd be really happy. |
