We can finally play Crash Bandicoot 2???
Chase Lewis
so?

Might as well play goat BIMULATOR
Ryder Bell
it's basically just how dolphin does it.
Jaxon Peterson
the emulator itself is still dreadful though, and the fact that it exists means that no other competitors will ever be developed.
Sebastian Turner
So they're going to work on PS1 capabilities that are readily available on other emulators instead of improving their PS2 emulation?
Adam Allen
>So they're going to work on PS1 capabilities
Nah, they're literally just enabling PS2's backwards compatibility, which works out of the box. If PS2 is well emulated, PS1 games will only gain from this.
With the small difference that Dolphin started out as a GC emulator.
Carson Hall
Literally why?
I dunno what the point of this is.
Gavin Anderson
Well if they're focusing on emulating the IOP more accurately now, perhaps PS2 games will improve? Klonoa 2 needs this badly.
David Watson
Why? I only emulated Drakengard, and the only issue I had was that it would slow down during credits.
Christian Gonzalez
but there is already a ps1 emulator called ePSXe and to my knowledge it's pretty good
Jeremiah Adams
wasnt there an update that fixed all the warping/stretching
Brandon Evans
This is literally worthless.
It's actually worse than worthless, because PCSX2 is a very lazy emulator made of HLE trash and hacks, while the PSX is so simple that we actually have 99% accurate LLE with programs like MEDNAFEN now.
But hey, this is for all the dumb kids who think PCSX2 is a good emulator, so maybe they'll support this turd too.
ePSXe is absolute garbage. Probably the worst emulator ever.
Ryder Thompson
Not really. PS2's original bios was a PSX chip. Since the emotion engine is also essentially a better version of the PSX chip they eventually took out the PSX chip and got it working with only a few incompatible titles
David Perez
epsxe is actually more accurate than mednafen now
Elijah Baker
user, don't talk shit about what you don't understand

was sony even trying
Angel Rogers
>epsxe is actually more accurate than mednafen now
Not by any possible stretch of the imagination, on any imaginable metric.
>ePSXe in particular seems to deliberately target these tests(partly by using the Amidog software GPU plugin), at the expense of accuracy, rather than for the sake of it, as using the plugins and settings that would get these results causes serious bugs in actual games.
Do you even read the garbage you post?
Daniel Parker
No, the BIOS and PS1 processors were both on the PS2 motherboard and had obviously different uses. The latter one being the spiritual successor of the Genesis' Z80 chip (which also ran SMS games natively). Only that in PS2's case, use of the chip is mandatory for audio and disc access of PS2 games.
Luke Perry
And and what about the graphics? I don't see no GTE on the mobo.
Daniel Anderson
GTE (along with MDEC) is inside the same R3000 CPU, as with a regular PS1.
GPU functions are simulated/remapped on the GS using code inside the PS2 BIOS.
Ryan Nelson
Hey, it works for Kega Fusion
Ryan Nelson
it really isnt. It has problems with some games but for the most part it gets the job done just fine.
Ayden Lee
>fact that it exists means that no other competitors will ever be developed.
How so?
