Yep seems like it requires v7.1001 >.< Also, for some reason, selecting PCSX input doesn't let you configure or anything the controller. Maybe it auto configures.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice! It really does swap to whichever profile you want the instant you connect the controller - and doesn't need DS3_tool either, so no memory leak as yet. Well shit, thank you H4wkeye!

You are most welcome! Very Happy I just tested it real quick myself, since I have to go afk. For Dolphin, I had to select Direct Input in the Input, and then it took some time configuring the controller, since I didn't know which button is which exactly (since there is a drop down menu of a bunch of buttons, not like click and press on controller to assign it). But, I loaded up the game and it worked just fine Very Happy Also, note that once I unplugged my controller, it turned my PS3 on Laughing And I also had to reconnect it via USB to my PS3 for it to recognize it and connect to it again, but no big deal.

Yeah, I remember my PS3 turning on whenever my machine turned off at night. I just got used to holding PS for a couple seconds, then pressing "Down Down X X" Laughing However, XInput should work for you on everything - including Dolphin - you simply have to assign the buttons.

A little update. If you press Disconnect in the program before you unplug the PS3 controller from the PC, it will not turn on the PS3 or anything. The program will turn off the controller, thus enabling you to safely unplug it. Smile

http://www.vg247.com/2013/05/15/dev-team-reverse-engineers-wii-u-gamepad-to-reveal-its-secrets/

Quote:
Nintendo’s Wii U GamePad has been reverse-engineered by the same team that created the Dolphin emulator, and the exercise has unearthed some interesting developments about the device’s upgradable firmware and more.


Eurogamer reports that the test found Nintendo’s pad to be upgradable via firmware updates, and that current Wii U firmware can already support two GamePads, which is a feature Nintendo has said will come down the line.

Developer Pierre Bourdon shed light on what this could mean for the future of the device, stating, “The firmware of the chip handling communication with the GamePad (called DRH) can be upgraded, so this might be in Nintendo’s future plans. Only speculation though, we didn’t see anything in the firmware that would indicate they are planning to do this”.

Here’s a video of the team emulating the Wii U GamePad on PC, courtesy of mema

They always were playable at 60FPS if you have 4,0+GHz corequad/i7 CPU.

As for the glitches - no, there is still no post-processing available and probably never will be (if gabest can't make it work - no one can) so you will have to use skiphack==2 to disable it (there will be no fog and some barely noticeable special effects). Or, well, try software rendering, it works faster with Haswell arch and AVX2.

For the DS, I'd use DeSmuME ( http://desmume.org/ ).
Afaik, there are no 3DS emulators out there but virus-filled fakes.

Careful Neon, that 3DS emulator you linked is malware, http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/3dsemulator.org?utm_source=addon&utm_content=rw-viewsc . That's why I love WOT Very Happy

There is no 3DS emulator.

Best NDS emulator is DesMume, it is still in active development.

completed god of war 1 few weeks ago at full speed no problems,well,only thing wrong with it was a black bar in the bottom right corner during videos but game itself was fine performance & graphicly.

1 bug i had though,theres a puzzle room where you gotta pull a lever that triggers a timed spiked floor & you have to drag a stone platform to be able to jump up to a ledge to get a necklace.
i could'nt do it in time and found a cheat on youtube that shows you how to pull of a few moves to jump up to the ledge without using the platform.
if you do what i did & jump up the ledge using the cheat moves without pulling the lever first then later on in the game pandoras box with not be there & you can.t progress the game Smile .
luckily i had a save game not long before the point i cheated up onto the ledge & did the glitch jump after pulling the lever the second time & pandoras bozx was where it should be & i completed the game without any other problems Smile.

heres my config i saved incase i fancied playing through it again.

pcsx2 version 1.1.0.5622.

different to the config pic i changed game res from native to 1920x1080.

Has anyone tried MAMEHub yet? Apparently there is a new version out and supports online play for Arcade games as well as many old consoles (genesis,tg-16,nes,snes,ps1,n64,amiga).

If this beats Kaillera for online play, which is no longer actively developed/supported, it could be good.

I only discovered it by accident on Youtube.

Ahoy there. Since I've not been following emulation for months/years now, I'll just be lazy and ask.

What's the best way to play FF6, improved if possible, on PC? I mean "improved" as in graphically, not gameplay changes. I was always under the impression this was also released for PC, that seems not the case sadly.

No idea about the advance version, but if you want to watch the faggy FMV's then it's the FFVI from the FF Collection that you're after.

If you want proper pixel stretching and a much improved 2D look, snes9x is the way to go, just enable the 2x supersai(I think) mode/filter, vertical since and a couple more small improvements.

inb4 sabine with the proper answer, anyway

No PC version I'm afraid and since it's sprites the only "improvements" you can do is filtering -- and a lot of the filtering, such as 2xSai or HQ2x, ruins the overall look of the sprites themselves, though admittedly that's subjective Smile Just stick to bSNES/zSNES and play it either stock or at the most, 25% scanlines. The GBA version is terrible by the way, it has additional content like extra bosses/espers/dungeons, but has awful slowdown, washed out visuals and a terrible remixed soundtrack and a dodgy retranslation (though that depends on how you feel about Ted Woolsey's original works) The colour brightness, the translation and the soundtrack can be fixed (albeit in peasant mono and not glorious stereo) via IPS patching but the slowdown won't be. It's really bad Sad

Stay away from the awful PS1 version too. The FMVs aren't worth the loading times (LOADING TIMES! Shocked) nor the slow down in battles and menus, much like the GBA one.

~edit~

Don't just take my word for it either;

Sure! SuperGNES is the best Android SNES emulator in my experience, closely oh so very closely followed by SNES9x EX My brother's JX.D S602 (1Ghz Cortex A8, 512MB RAM and a PVR SGX531) runs both of these flawlessly, even incredibly demanding games like Super Mario RPG, Star Fox, Yoshi's Island and Street Fighter Alpha 2. Audio quality is reasonably good though obviously not holding a candle to PC emulators such as bSNES.

FF6? There were few re-releases on GBA, DS and PSP later, some of them has improved graphics while game is the same. Will this do? All of them I think can be emulated, not sure about PSP's one and its compatibility.
