ok I did have problems on pcsx4all it must of been I think... maybe I`m dumb lol - but I could not select the items.. love this new version of rearmed though...

Wow that's some weird bugs there..
I'm a bit tired of working on this (these bugs just never stop popping up), so don't know when these are going to be fixed.

Hey notaz, I tried the same FFVII eboot in a PSP and it works fine. Think it's a bug or would trying a different one possibly give better results?

Maybe, .cue/.bin version works fine for me.

Also, I have a question about different bios files. Would different bios yield different results? Such as scph5000, 5500, 7000, 7502 etc, and Dtlh3000, 3002? Are they supported?

Should be supported, but I doubt results will differ much.

Is scaling automatically enabled or do you have to set it in the menus? I assume the latter because certain screens in Gran Turismo are still to wide. How do you set it? Thanks!

It's always enabled, but still not all video modes are supported.

Ok, I enabled the CPU load indicator and I notice that it seems to indicate around 20-30%, and this is when the game is really laggy and slow. Then it will suddenly jump to around 80-90% and this is when the game runs wonderfully, and just flies! Also to note when this happens, if I hit pause and unpause (through the game, not menu) the game goes back to the 20-30%. Hope this helps.

I am playing the game through a USB drive. Can that affect performance?

Never had that happen, just tried it from USB too. it would look like you are running something in background and it steals the CPU.

fantastic release notaz! i found a small fault. touchscreen 4 sometimes becomes touchscreen 3 when i try to bind it. the other touchscreens 1, 2, and 3 are fine and don't change. try it yourself by repeatedly binding touchscreen 4 to a button. other than that the button customization features are great.

Doesn't happen here too, I could bind TS4 10 times in a row.

For those interested "chakie chan stuntmaster" finally works cant believe it lol - thanks to notaz.... just need to mess with settings to try and get a good speed out of it

Cool, how did you get it working? I tried, and got the same results as before (splash screen seemed to be frozen, but sound effects going in the background.)

You need to use bios and it works - also try some of the speed hacks it helps I`m using a pal version BTW

Thanks, I just tried my NTSC version and it's working! I thought I'd tried both HLE and BIOS, but maybe not.

To get good speed, after its loaded - frameskip 1 and all 3 speed hacks switch to on gives you great speed and normal save works as well BTW
I`m running it @ 750Mhz aswell

That is what it sounds like, but even after I reset the device I still get the same results. The emulator is loaded on a card with practically nothing else on it except for PS roms. I copied Gran Turismo onto the card and tried that and it doesn't appear to be the USB drive (which is pretty old, thought that might be a problem).

A quick question - in the speed hacks section, what does under/overclocking the CPU there do? It is by default at 50, so I assumed the lower the clock, the faster the game but at the risk of more instances of the game breaking.

I want to thank you for this program, and for the assistance you're providing. You set a great example!

If anyone has Colin McRae 2 working can you post your settings? I got it going last night somehow, but can't get it going again (wanted to tinker with the speedhacks). Not sure what I changed...

Is there a performance difference when using the compressed ISOs? I assume there would be since the program has to decompress it, but I know very little about how that sort of thing works.
