hi, guys! Since I´m new here, this is my first post. Pls don´t think I´m totally nuts posting a topic about the psx emulator in the htc legend section...i know that this app has been designed for high-end phones...but there are some games that actually are playable even on the legend.

I´d be interested in what games run at acceptable speed on this phone and the plan is to create a list to share our experiences

pls use this template to share your information. (i´ve stolen it from a thread in the nexus one section...i hope the author doesn´t mind...)

oh...and when i say a game has "good" performance then don´t expect it to run at full speed...cause i mean "good" performance for the legend

--Phone--

Modifications: (list any overclocks, custom roms, etc. here)

--Compatibility--

A very useful guide. Will try out some of the games mentioned above and will give feedback. Keep up the good work.

 

[ms_green]

I'm glad you like it I would appreciate it if you helped expanding the list.
Everyone else has been ignoring me so far

I've been sceptical about the emulator running on Legend. Wanted to try it by myself but I was scared the it might be a waste of time. Been searching around if Legend its playable on Legend and you provided the answer. The Legend community is pretty small and everyone else is preoccupied with custom roms and all. Will certainly do that.

It feels good to have helped someone but don't expect all games to run that well or you'll get disappointed. There are lots of games that are too slow to be payable at the moment. Maybe there'll be some updates in the future to make it better and who knows....maybe things will get better with froyo..

got psx4droid yday, playing through ff7 atm, run s pretty good, slightly slow, but all things considering its very playable! 1 thing thats irritating is when trying to hold x to run it sumtimes goes a diff direction

 

[slighmd]

finished FF7 on psx4droid. advise: get a PC PSX emulator for the underwater/ submarine level. just before going underwater, save on the world map via the ingame menu, not the save state, and transfer that save/memcard file to the pc psx emulator, finish that part from there, save again, then retransfer back to the .psx4droid directory in the sd card. that's also how you basically kill the emerald and ruby weapons. also the same for the first fight with the ultima weapon

 

[ms_green]

Cool!
Which phone are you guys using? And thx for the tip concerning the submarine level!

What about Gran Turismo ?
Someone test it?

Someone test it?

GT1 & 2 tested with Desire Z, both are unplayable. Works fine, but SLOW! About 30% from original speed, so in driving game, its disaster.

 

[ANtiHazarD]

Ok, thx ! I'm already tried on My Legend too... it's crazy ))

 

[and313]

what roms do you guys use? I can't get it work on cm7 cyanogen nigtlies or is it sayed that it won't work on that rom and I just don't know it

 

[robertsaedal]
