Another emulator makes its way to the PS3 as homebrew dev shinhalsafar releases the first version of FCEU PS3, a Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) emulator for the PS3 jailbreaking community.
Developer's note:
Supports: 480, 720, 1080P at either 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio. Not yet supported but to be desired: SRAM and state saving.
CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED FCEU FUNCTIONS
Just enough to play a ROM
4P Support
CONTROLS IN ROM MENU
Up - Go up
Down - Go down
Left - Go back five file entries
Right - Go forward five file entries
L1 - Go back one page
R1 - Go forward one page
Cross - (If directory selected) enter directory/ (if ROM selected) start ROM
Triangle - Same as Cross
Circle - (If not in root directory) Go back to previous directory
L2 + R2 - (If you previously exited a ROM) return to game
Select - Go to settings menu (see 'CONTROLS IN SETTINGS MENU' section)
CONTROLS IN SETTINGS MENU
Up - Go up one setting
Down - Go down one setting
Left - Change setting to the left
Right - Change setting to the right
Circle - Go back to ROM menu
EXPLANATION OF SETTINGS MENU
Display framerate - This will show the FPS (Frames Per Second) onscreen
Resolution - Switch between resolutions - 480p mode, 720p mode and 1080p mode (depending on your monitor's supported resolutions)
Aspect Ratio - Switch between aspect ratios 4:3 and 16:10 (16:9 will come shortly, for now choose 16:10 on widescreen - perhaps small
cutoff at left and right))
Hardware Filtering - Switch between Linear interpolation (Bilinear filtering) and Point filtering.
CONTROLS IN-GAME
Nothing worth really explaining here -
R3 + L3 - Press these two buttons together while in-game to go back to the ROM browser menu.
TIP: You can use any USB controller you like and it will map the buttons on the fly - it is even possible to hotswap joysticks - remove one from the
USB port, replace it with another one - it should all work fine. even SNES-to-USB converters should work.
To play a game with a USB controller as Player 1, start up your PS3 and rather than using the Sixaxis/DualShock3, plug in an USB port before
connecting the controller to the PS3 - your USB pad should then become Controller 1.
HD TV USERS
For people running this on HDTVs complaining about input lag:
Turn off all post-processing filters you may have running - on Sony Bravia HDTVs, display Motion Flow (this also causes input lags with most games in general, not just this SNES emu. If your HDTV has a 'Game' mode or something of the sort, select that as well.
PERFORMANCE NOTES
100% everywhere, let me know otherwise.
