Snes9X Euphoria R1 is released.First version of SNES emulator for Sony PSP has been released. It's based on source code of Snes9xTyl by rukka. The main purpose of the emu's author is to improve the speed of emulation. Also he plans to update emulators core up to the latest version of SNES9x (1.51). All versions of Snes9xTyl are based on SNES9x 1.42 core.

This emulator really give a significant increase in speed. I've checked it in Super Mario RPG at the place with a lot of graphic objects. With the same settings (PSP Accelerated, Zoom 4:3, no frameskip) it gave increase from 38 (Snes9xTyl++) to 46 (Snes9X Euphoria R1) fps. In less crowded place game runs at almost 60 fps.

So I have been working on this for a bit tonight (I am really sick atm )

However I did feel well enough to at least get out of bed for a few hours and wrap up Snes9X Euphoria for a release.
It is based off the last version of Snes9xTyl by rukka.

My main objective for this version was speed. A lot more can still be done to optimise the emulator and get more speed, but for now (given my health) this will have to do

The only game I have tested with my version is Kirby Super Star, which I know had terrible FPS with other Snes9X releases (usually < 30Fps)

With my build, using the following settings, Kirby Super Star runs @ a minimum of 44Fps and a max of 60fps with the usual fps being 50fps.

Settings :

Renderer : PSP Accelerated
FrameSkip : 3

This does not generate a jerky experience, it finally feels playable

Other testing :

Donkey Kong Country : Same settings as above :
Min FPS : 58
Max FPS : 60

The speedups should be global, every game should be a lot faster now

Future :

I plan on improving speed more, improving stability and applying the changes from Snes9X1.51 to Snes9X euphoria also (which is running off the 1.42 code base)

I hope you enjoy this release and if you have any bugs please post them in the : Snes9X Euphoria - Official Forum

There seems to be some graphical bugs in the menus in Kirby Super Star (and maybe other games), these will be fixed in later revisions.

Thanks and I hope you enjoy the release
