compatibility of games for psx4droid

That is very good news, something to look forward to when I finally root and load CM6.

If it Is not too much trouble, can you try one more thing for me? Can you try out the X-Com UFO ROM to see if you can play the game at full speed without lags, that game lags big time for me, and also crashes often, I wounder if Froyo will solve both the lag and the crash problem. Thank you so much for your help.

Ok, so, found it and downloaded it. Unecm'd then converted to PBP. Loaded right up with no dragging. Sound was so far the best I've heard on any ROM (no "popping" noises or "scratchy" noises). Everything seemed very very fluid.

On that note though, I've never even heard of this game or played it so I had no idea what to expect. I couldn't really do anything besides set my base, rotate the earth, etc etc. Beyond that, I didn't know what TO do.

That said, I'd say:

Graphics: 9 (looked like it should, I assume)
Sound: 10 (sounded crisp on my phone)
Frames: 9 (I guess? I'm horrible at this rating thing, lol, but it didn't glitch or snag or drag at all!)

Hope that helps.

Anything else, just let me know and I'll download and try it out.

can you check to see if you can get to the funding menu without freezing up. Also can you enter the base and try to purchase something through the buy/sell menu?

The way you can enter the funding menu is by hitting select x2, and you should be able to select the side menu. To buy something in the base, first select the base, then select buy/sell, then go to the item you want to buy and use right and left key to increase or decrease the item to buy.

Thank you so much for all your helps :)

Some more:

Civilization II
Diablo
Magic The Gathering
Monopoly


All working great (played for about 15+ minutes each) with no problems. Only problem with any of them is Diablo, since there isn't enough buttons! I need R2/L2 or I can't access my inventory or other important menus.

Crusaders of Might and Magic

Only game out of about 15 I've tried that did not work. Loaded to front "splash" screen but wouldn't go past that..

i think your phone is capable, have you already loaded the correct bios in the menu before trying any games?

Tomb Raider the Last Revelation not working on my stock HTC Incredible. Ripped the iso from my disc using alcohol 52%. Loaded the full, uncompressed iso it loaded past the start screen, then loaded approx 90% and got stuck. I then compressed the iso using icetea with the same results. So far TR2 and TRLR both will not load into a playable state. Anyone else tried any tomb raider games? If so, any success?

if, of course, and install the correct bios without problems, but anyway. When I open a game the screen goes black for a few seconds, as if you were to start but then returns to the menu psx4droid. I think they said I needed to do a "overclock" the phone, so that the processor run faster, but really do not know how, and another thing I do know is that I am "root" for the use of any application that requires access "root"

Just want to report in. I finally got Froyo 2.2 (the leak unoffical HTC version) on my Evo. Currently the Linpack score: 40+.

I loaded up X-Com UFO, and Warcraft 2, and Grand Turismo 2 on it. The results:

X-Com: still laggy, but seem to crash less (as in not crash yet in 5 minute play), but still very hard to play with the lag, but better then 2.1.
Warcraft 2: still randomly crashes, while there is work around (save often, and use mission load codes), the crashes still distract from the experiences.
Grand Turismo 2: Run faster in 2.2, ~80% speed vs ~50% speed in 2.1, but still not full speed, but more enjoyable due to speed increase. (note with more cars in screen, the slower the game gets)

I was hoping for better result for my 2.2 Evo, like uoY_redruM was reporting. But I guess Nexus one runs psx4Droid better due to smaller screen, and no sense UI. :(

However there is hope. 1) Maybe developer will update the app soon, with faster performance and less game crash bugs. 2) The 2.2 version I am using is not the final version, so hopefully the final release version of Froyo for Evo will be even more optimized, and have performance matching Nexus One.

Only time will tell, but for now i am still envious of uoY_redruM. :p

Just an FYI if you like FFB

the game plays perfectly (except the world map is godawful slow) until you have to pilot balamb garden. For some reason balamb garden cant go onto land so you'll be stuck at sea. :( im pissed because i'm 20 hours in now and cant do a thing

EDIT: okay after transferring my savegame to the computer and moving the garden up the beach and transferring back my Dinc... (cant move the garden on land it gets stuck while on psx4droid) theres another problem with the game closing out while visiting edea's house
