PS1 PSIO problems

You are lying.
LOL
WITH WHAT? Another false claim...!

Everything I said is in the linked thread.
Link the EXACT POST and cite your sources!

I gave two direct links to posts where the most important statements are contained.
I read the one to ACE's post, which explains the audio-issue...

Where does this proof that the PSIO-dev wrote, that he will not fix it?
Where is the link, to prove THIS claim! -->
The chief of CybDyn literally wrote he is not going o fix it.

Oh... and regarding 2nd link... Yes... You added that, as can be seen from my quote and your edit! It wasn't there in the beginning and how many times did I ask for that link?

Good! FINALLY you verified a claim!
They are not going to fix it? That is MORE than a bummer! I honestly think that this is the wrong decision!

Every rational human being can just use those links and do his/her own investigation, if the good will is there.
  1. Every rational human being, would not write posts and AVOID proving their own claims.
  2. That's not how it works... You make a claim and if you don't verify it, it remains an "unverified claim", hence the "good will" has nothing to do with it. You expect others to invest their lifetime, to prove your claims correct? Now I have to question your sanity/rationale.
  3. You could have added a link to the post and a quote. Done...! Instead you like playing the sharade.
I will make it very blunt for you:
Really? That's really bad rhetoric, lol. It's a blatant copy...

1. The scene I remember from the past, which gave us wonderful projects like OPL in the first place, didn't have screaming fanatics like you.
You are talking of yourself, are you?

True... We didn't have so many "screaming fanatics" like you.

OPL? Bad example... I was the first to know from the GUI and the first tester of the USB-Core, before ifcaro got even involved.

Nice try...!

2. Everything I've written about PSIO here is true and can be easily verified. You are absolutely blind to it all because your attitude is dedicated by personal animosities and bad will.
No. It is simply lead by the scientific method!
You make claims without verification...
People have to "beg" you, for a link or citations... to make sure your claims are correct, yet you rather engage in this sharade instead of simply copying a link and a quote!

3. I've provided all the proof needed. Everything is in that thread for people to read and draw their own conclusions from.
...and sure they will, like they will see how you added the link... I didn't see it before and it was not in your post, up until ~30 Minutes ago (as can be seen from the edit-time and my quote of your reply)!

4. I told you not to talk to me ever again.
...and I tell you, that this is a forum/board!
You can't handle replies from others? Quite frankly? THEN DON'T JOIN A BOARD!

You want to ban me, do it.
I don't?! I couldn't care less, as long as you don't just come around to bash someone, without citing or linking sources!

Is this a request?

Otherwise, stop any interactions with me
Declined!
You chose to come to psx-place.com didn't you?

because I told you time and time again that I do not even find you capable of a rationale discussion.
Writes the same person who I exposed for claiming false things about PSIO and who has to be "BEGGED" for sources and citations.

Like the seek-delays... First: "It's not there...", then: "It doesn't work without it"...
I didn't forget it and it was the same game you were playing.

/s Yeah, you are really capable of a rational(e) discussion. /
 
Where does this proof that the PSIO-dev wrote, that he will not fix it?
In the thread to which I directly linked you to on the previous page. You can't even read carefully enough.
You chose to come to psx-place.com didn't you?
I wasn't aware somebody was crazy enough to make you a moderator here.
...and sure they will, like they will see how you added the link... I didn't see it before and it was not in your post, up until ~30 Minutes ago
Of course I added the link. You were incapable of finding it yourself and claimed it doesn't exist. I didn't realize I had to deal with somebody so dense at first.

I never wrote anything false about PSIO here (to this day, you don't even understand what I wrote about seek times being a crucial feature for game compatibility). You, however, keep doing that all the time. You have zero knowledge about that cart and the problems PSIO users are facing for the last few years. You won't even invest time to study any of it. You are just here to scream the nonsense. And I will tell you why. Your ego is tickled by my posts since I registered here in 2018 because you know I totally disrespect you and see your entire online persona as a sham. That's why you keep hounding me from the start and lying. But you will never gain my respect because I see how mean-spirited you really are. Now ban me for disrespecting the "mod". If you had any decency and a shred of goodwill, you would have stopped talking to me as I had asked you ~2 years ago.

EDIT: I had a big, healthy laugh when you dared to compare yourself to the true legends like ifcaro. Good one, bro.

LOOOOOOOOOOL

You just talked about something entirely else than what I quoted... You really can't read and are "dense" (Your repertoire only consist of ad hominem, doesn't it?)!

The first link was about the Audio-issues ACE reported! PROOF THAT YOU CAN'T READ? THE LINE/SENTENCE ABOVE, which you deliberately left out of your quote!

I read the one to ACE's post, which explains the audio-issue...

Where does this proof that the PSIO-dev wrote, that he will not fix it?
Where is the link, to prove THIS claim

Now I ask my question again...

Where does this proof that the PSIO-dev wrote, that he will not fix it?
Oh! It doesn't, because it is not even related to the claim that they won't fix it...

I wasn't aware somebody was crazy enough to make you a moderator here.
You might direct that statement to the administrator of psx-place.com @STLcardsWS!

Of course I added the link. You were incapable of finding it yourself and claimed it doesn't exist.
FALSE...
  1. You added the link, after I hit the quote-button as it can be seen from your edit-time-stamp and my exact quote, how your post originally was!
  2. I didn't claim anything... I ASKED you multiple times, to provide prove for YOUR claims... No less, no more...
I didn't realize I had to deal with somebody so dense at first.
Well, if it is too much for you to provide prove and sources for your claims, that certainly proves how "dense" YOU are.

I never wrote anything false about PSIO here
Ahahaaaa... /s Never!
The people can read your replies... Guess what...? Some staff can read the posts as they were, before you edited them and even deleted posts can be read by some... (like the one were I entirely exposed your BS the last time)

Nice try!

(to this day, you don't even understand what I wrote about seek times being a crucial feature for game compatibility).
First of all... It is not, or it would have been implemented way longer ago than in August.

Second... First you claimed "it isn't there" (when the newer firmware received the feature 2 weeks, or was it 2 months [?] earlier), then you claimed "it wouldn't work without it" and both was CLEARLY FALSE!

One of multiple false claims!:applause:

You, however, keep doing that all the time.
What "that"?
Can you write sentences with a context?

You have zero knowledge about that cart and the problems PSIO users are facing for the last few years.
Oh, another false claim from 1337-H4XX0R Grahf...
/s I am glad we got you on board, who can enlighten us, that games won't work at all without the seek-times emulation!

You won't even invest time to study any of it.
Another trial to deflect from YOUR mistakes?

YOU made a claim! I solely asked for sources to verify those claims!
You were incapable to provide them for how long? An hour? More?

You are just here to scream the nonsense.
No... I am here to EXPOSE nonsense! In this case, it just happens to be you AGAIN.

And I will tell you why. Your ego is tickled by my posts since I registered here in 2018 because you know I totally disrespect you and see your entire online persona as a sham.
ROOOOOOFL!

I couldn't care less about some pixels on a screen, from some weekend-keyboard-warrior! :'-D

That's why you keep hounding me from the start and lying.
No... I just keep exposing BS...
It's not my fault, that you continually destroy yourself with spreading claims without sources.
That is your fault. Quite simple!

The only lying person here is you.
You are a SPIN-DOCTOR, but not a good one...

But you will never gain my respect because I see how mean-spirited you really are.
So I am "evil" (as per your PM), for exposing that you claim and claim and claim and claim and have to be BEGGED FOR HOURS to provide proof for your claims?

Now ban me for disrespecting the "mod".
Well, if this is what you want.
Oh, btw. not for "disrespecting the mod", but because you ask for it for the second time and since I asked you that after your first statement, I assume this to be your permission to go ahead.

But it will only be for 1 week...
Maybe you get used to how forums/boards work, up until then.

You should also re-read the rules and ToS, you agreed upon registration.
You are in violation of multiple rules.

If you had any decency and a shred of goodwill, you would have stopped talking to me as I had asked you ~2 years ago.
Exposing lies and false claims as what they are, does not require "any decency and a shred of goodwill"...

My decency and goodwill ASKED FOR SOURCES!
You had the chance, to just drop your evidence and don't engage in a senseless "fight"!

It was YOUR choice, trying to engage in a "fight"...

I don't care who makes claims...
I ask developers, staff and other users the very same thing,... to LINK/CITE THEIR SOURCES!



Edit:
EDIT: I had a big, healthy laugh when you dared to compare yourself to the true legends like ifcaro. Good one, bro.
I did not compare myself to anyone... Yet another false claim.

What I did say, is...
  1. I knew the USB-LD-Testcore before anyone else (except for the creator @Jimmikaelkael).
  2. I was the very first tester of EVERY "core"/device-support (USB, HDD, SMB).
  3. I suggested the LAN-Method as an alternative for Slims and mentioned the used SMB-Drivers (2 choices: MyPS2 from @NTBA2 or SMS from @EEUG, where I think the SMS-SMB-driver was based on the one from MyPS2 [initially?]).
  4. I knew of the open source GUI, ifcaro developed and "connected" both developers... (I told them what each other does and how it would PERFECTLY "work together", could "found" the first open source game-Loader and how this then could be extended by the various other open sources, like @Polo35's VMC-Code, etc.) One week later we had the first open source game loader.
These are FACTS and you can just ask the guys @Jimmikaelkael, @ifcaro and all the others from "back in the days"!

ASK THE PEOPLE INSTEAD OF "TALKING BEHIND THEIR BACK", about what they think of/about your claims!

I wasn't Co-Administrator of the biggest Playstation-scene-site (already a DECADE ago) for nothing. I knew what I said and wrote about, way before you even used the Internet.

I know WAY more, than you WILL even comprehend if you try it for a decade!

You are such a nutcase! :'-D
---
Edit: You know what? Scrap that part... If you would want to learn stuff, I don't want to discourage you!


I am GLAD, I provided you some healthy laughing though!


tl;dr
The simplest way to make me "not engage with you", is to simply provide a link to what you claim and even better (but not needed), would be a "quote" from the linked source.

You provide sources to your claims which are irrefutable and you never see anything from me, written to you.


I think some of your points are useful (!!!), but you need "a decade" (hours/days) to "get to the point"!
If you just provide the information with a link, this is enough to verify a claim!

Actually I want everyone to learn, hence I am sorry for being an ass on that specific part.
 
Goddamn, PSIO is still struggling to run some very popular games properly (Nuclear Strike freezes after 10-15 minutes of gameplay, Mortal Kombat Trilogy doesn't have music if you pause the game, Brave Saga 1-2 don't boot at all, Need for Speed freezes in the menus, etc.).

Meanwhile, some other company already developed an ODE which is said to be super-compatible by well-know hardware reviewers like Voultar.

Seems like CybDyn was just spinning marketing bullshit all this time. I feel sad for all the people who not only wasted money on that cartridge, but also butchered their PS1 PCBs to install it.

X-station might or might not be an alternative.

Right now, there are only videos from youtubers who booted games instead of playing them 100%. We don't know what the real compatibility of X-station is going to be down the road. We need to wait for user reviewers, especially from hardcore gamers who will play something like Dragon Quest VII for 500 hours.

Another problem is that X-station only works on certain PS1 PCBs and its installation is a nightmare. You have to solder to lifted pins on a chip. Some people said that in itself might introduce interference into the PS1 bus.
 
@Grahf Would you test some games and report back?

I would like to create a specific thread for "issues" with PSIO with games (or is this thread sufficient?), so detailed reports might be useful!

I see complains, but bug-Reports certainly would be more useful.

Bug reports for PSIO are here: https://www.cybdyn-systems.com.au/forum/viewforum.php?f=81

One positive thing I can say about CybDyn is that they don't hide the problems their device has.

Once something is fixed, they move the coresponding thread into the archives. As you can see, there's still quite a lot of broken games, and big titles like Resident Evil 2-3 are among them.
 
Thank you!

Interesting! I did not knew, that they have a sub-forum for this.

I will mock up a thread with the content, later on.


Just saying... I also support exposing false claims! I think TECHNICALLY, it is theoretically capable of being 99.9% compatible but practically it is NOT (yet)!

It's really hard to say because only they know how this device really works (it's closed-source from the start).

However, it's clear they are actually emulating the CD-ROM using ARM and FPGA chips. Seems like most - if not all - of the bugs come from emulation inaccuracies. For example, they have a lot of freezing and broken audio in PS1 EA games right now due to a poorly emulated CD-ROM double-buffer. According to PSIO's designer:
The PlayStation can't re-load in new data from a double-buffering flag issue (which we're working on fixing).

Thx for the links and the quote!

I think Hardware-wise it is the best method, but the Software is still not as it should be.

It being "closed source" isn't much of a Problem though, imo (see Ghidra).
