PS3 Compatibility List - PS2 on PS3

[mrjaredbeta]

The majority of the games mentioned by @NoSoul just have some speed issues that are most likely fixable. Darkwatch and Soul Reaver (and maybe others?) are probably fixable with accuracy commands, and the others can be fixed by finding speed hacks (Tenchu only has rare freezes now with Rikimaru, speed is fixed). I'd say we're doing pretty well with this emu.

Of course there's the occasionally outlier, but like 90% of games can be played on this emu now. It gets a lot of flak for what it is.

@mrjaredbeta can the Ratchet & Clank games be fixed,just curious.if it is one of the unfixable games.


by the way there is any command that fix screen flickering?

 

[NoSoul]

There is a Wipeout HD Fury published for PS3 btw
Is like a remaster of the previous wipeout games published for PSP (pure and pulse)

Is different than the "wipeout fusion" published for PS2, but well... not so much

Yeah I actually have that on my PS3. I would have it on my PC for RPCS3 but it doesn't work right for me.

Why not just play the HD collection for 1, 2 and 3 and Deadlocked was on PSN as an HD game. I was even able to convert it to ISO and it's apart of my ISO collection on sman.

If the engine does not support disabling mipmapping then no. Anyway, the Ratchet & Clank series got a HD remaster on the PS3.

but what is the issue exactly?mipmapping should only cause minor issues.

and i know there is a ps3 version.

 

[Agrippa]

The issue is the emulator does not support mipmapping.

Secret Agent Clank is the one that just doesn't work, can't be played in any other way and needs to be fixed but maybe it can't.

Honestly, it sounds like some fixable accuracy problem just from looking at the compat list.

 

[Rafaelrios]

a few games on the list have the following statement:

''Game double buffer vsyncs to half fps all the time''

Sorry,if this sound dumb,it probably does,but what does that mean?

That basically means when the game can't hit 60fps, it cuts to 30fps. PS2 hardware does this with the games stated, but its more often on PS3.

SSX (SLES-50030)

3D 00 00 00 57 44 00 00 0A 00 00 00 01 00 00 00
FC AC 1E 00 E5 00 40 10 E5 00 00 10 00 00 00 00

SSX (SLUS-20095)

3D 00 00 00 57 44 00 00 0A 00 00 00 01 00 00 00
34 85 1E 00 E5 00 40 10 E5 00 00 10 00 00 00 00

Full freeze fix for SSX.

No smoke induced freezes, no random freezes, and ALL smoke/particle effects are still enabled. Only tested SLES, but NO freezes in my time tested. I have tried every reproducible freeze multiple times, as well as trying to get random freezes on Elysium Alps to no avail. Safe to say it is officially FIXED(!) with all effects still intact.

SLUS has not been tested though, but since the freezes are exactly the same, I doubt that it will fail to work. Please test though...I am a little scared to be let down.

@mrjaredbeta thnx for fixing this game,all i need now is gt4 fixed.

Secret Agent Clank is the one that just doesn't work, can't be played in any other way and needs to be fixed but maybe it can't.

I finished the game, just like compatibility list said, use pcsx2 pass the bug level.

But this game not fun to play,and ps2 version even worse than PSP version.

 

[NoSoul]

I guess I forgot how to make a config I pasted jaredbeta's code in hxd and named it SSX.bin.CONFIG but black screen on SSX?

Nevermind got it, and tried NTSC version for 10 minutes no freezes. Maybe it needs to be tested longer but I have to get to bed.
