psx4driid, ff7 and nook color - Nook Color Themes and Apps

Hey all..I'm sure somebody out there has ff7 running nicely on their nook color and I was wondering what were the right settings to use, as well as BIOS? I got it working but the sound is out of sync and the grplaphics are super blocky if the screen size isn't tiny.. thanks in advance!

I can sort of get FFIX to work.. but I think at this point we need a stable 2.2+ ROM with the hardware acceleration enabled to get a smooth experience with the emulator

I'm able to run ffvii but the sound is slooooow. Im pretty sure the blockyness is because you're playing a game designed to run at 320x240 stretched to a high resoluton. Any rom improvements wont fix that.

Dont play ff, but with other games on psx4droid ive noticed that earlier versions of the emulator are much faster. If you happen to have a backed up apk of a pre "v2" version it will run in general much faster....probably at the cost of compatibility and various features etc but ive had no problems

Psx4droid 1.7 plays ff7 very well on both nookie and stock b and n OS. I played all the way to the temple of ancients on my nook

Is that with Antialiasing turned on and also sound?
I was able to get my more current version to run great when I turned those features off, but of course it would be much better with sound..

FF VII Nook Color psx4droid 1.7 running great! 2.1 was laggy
Read the title. Just posting a success. Have fun!

V 1.7 doesn't have an anti alaising option

Finally got around to finding the 1.7 and boy what a difference.. Near perfect in every way..
Plays Destruction Derby without a hitch!

I have 1.7 but when I try to load roms it goes black for a second then back to the select screen. I've tried several Roms to no avail
Anybody know why?

This does happen to me...The only way I can fix it is to completely shut down the Nook, then turn back on again..

Rebooted and downloaded new BIOS file and now its working.. need to get BT up and running before I can really play any games I'm interested in though

[Q] gameloft apps

Has anybody had any luck running gameloft games. I can get asphalt 5 to work along with BIA and modern combat 2 but not the others. I want to run ganstar Miami, Spiderman, and ft racing but they wont run tho they install the extra data just fine. I'm on cm7 rc4.
What rom are u using if u are able to play them?

I've gotten NOVA to work and runs well on cm7 rc4. I tried Asphalt 6 HD on Nookie froyo, it works but the screen is scrunched together and you can't see the car.

Could you tell me how you did it? NOVA looks great and I'm eager to try it on my autonooter rooted Nook.
What version are you using to get Nova to run fullscreen, I can get it to run but the hole game runs 1/4 screen.
how about lets golf 2?
The way I got MC2 was just by emailing the one I downloaded on my epic from their site to my nook. It installed and worked great.
Asphalt 6 HD works perfectly on the Nook Color.

I concur (hit or miss sometimes), I've got Dungeon Hunter HD and Hero of Sparta to work on CM7 v.33. And at times, I get the same scenario when it launches and I download the data, click on the game and it doesn't work. I'm currently running NookieComb, and they both work on that as well. Good luck.

I have the same issue with Spiderman. Im running CM7 RC4. Game installs and when I go to run it crashes right away when trying to play the opening video. Looking at the Gameloft folder on SD card I found the mp4 video and was able to play it in rockplayer but noticed it was 1024 x 600 which I think nook cant play natively? I took the mp4 file and ran it thru handbrake into a format nook can handle and pushed back to sd card however when I went to run the game I think it checks the file size as it asked me to re download the 13meg mp4 file again from gameloft.
It probably just checks the CRC to make sure it's the same file. I believe this can be spoofed.

I have tried manipulating the files too..
the odd thing is I was able to run Asphalt 5 once before and it has never since. The graphics are incredible LOL, so I want it back.
Need to find away to get passed the first video. I copied the Gameloft file from my phone to the Nook to see if it was any different and still no go..
well i re encoded the video (that was the easy part) and checked its okay and runs just fine on the nook. Looked around about the CRC thing and used PEiD with CRC32 plug in and got the CRC value from the source original mp4 file. Used that value and applied it to the new re encode video via PEiD. Value took but still doesnt pass some Gameloft check. Fails and wants me to re down the file.
I posted something a month or so ago about this very issue. I thought it was why my games weren't playing also. You can reencode the video but then you'll have to pad it to the exact size as the original. I was able to get the videos to play but then the game would still crash after that anyways.
Hi.I wish we post the list games tested in using rom.
Exp: I'm using Utimate droid ,games and apps tested is:supper mario ,angry bird,nes game(for rom classic nintendo,you can play very more game:contra,mario,lode runner,ninja......),HD paint kids,........not try asphalt 6
Tks all.

3.1.2 on Nookiecomb 0.4.2.
I think it has to do more with rom (cm7) than anything. I just saw a video on YouTube of a Guy playing Spiderman on his nook. Didn't say what rom he was using tho
Recently converted to CM7 RC4 and having the same issues as above.... came from nootered 1.1 with pretty much all gameloft games running, but so far I've only gotten Asphalt 5, BiA2, and Nova (non-GTab version) to work. Gangstar, Sandstorm, Fishing Kings, Let's Golf 2, and more all immediately crash upon start.

Best playstation emulator?

Are there any playstation emulators that are working on the galaxy tab 10.1? All of them seem to have weird sound or poor fps. I think psx4droid worked on the xoom, but it's not playing nice on here.
Would also like to know this. Psx4droid just doesn't run any roms, and Fpse works, but lots of frame rate and sound issues running FFVII ( which according to the internets, is one of the best running roms out there).
I've seen it running really well on a phone, don't see why it should run badly on a more powerful device.
using FPse with Crash bandicoot and it works fine for me !
After I updated to Touchwiz UX FPSE started working alot better for me. Before I wasn't getting any sounds in FF9 and the sounds during regular gameplay were very choppy. Now I am getting 52-60 fps and sound emulation is great.
+1 for FPSe
Went through many emulators and the is by far the best.
Using an older version of psx4drioid (pre v2) works the best on tegra devices, havent tried it yet on my GT but on my old g-tablet it was the best emulator. Version 1.2 or 1.5 if I recall correctly.

honycomb does not play nice with psx4droid
use FPSe
- download scph1001.bin from the net
- go to FPSe settinges
- than system
- bios loading and choose scph1001.bin
- restart FPSe
- enjoy with the almost 100% working games with sound and everything
I've found most RPG games have messed up sound with FPSe, anyway to fix this issue? Final Fantasy 7,8,9
whenever i get ff9 fpse wont load it, where are you guys getting your working roms from?
Fpse is the freaking best man, it even works flawlessly on my nexus s
+ 1 fpse
I wish I could get FPse working for me, I have the correct Bios, but when I load any game it shows a black screen for 30 seconds and then force closes. I know the roms are working because they work with PSX4droid (however PSX4droid randomly crashes and sound clips). Do you think its because I'm using the Starburst ROM? Or possibly I have a bad bios file?
FPSe loads FF9 fine if I have the BIOS file loaded, except:
1) Graphics look like crap. There are settings that VASTLY improve graphics quality but these make it laggy/choppy
2) No sound in many areas. Basically, there is no background music
Well FPSe is working great in terms of frame rate and all that ... But yeah getting a weird sound issue where the music in FFVII seems to be chopped off a little.
Notes don't' seem like they are completing or something. Kind of weird.

Runs perfectly smooth with no slowdown in FMV sequences? Because I am not having a similar experience. I have messed with the settings a lot, and I can get generally smooth gameplay and battle sequences (50-60fps) but I cannot keep the FMV scenes from being stuttery/jerky at time.

I have spusync option on under audio and frame limiter + frame skip 50fps. With these settings i get smooth gameplay in any game I have tried including FFVII and FMV scenes.
Try it out, the frame skip 50 fps allows some games to run normal for some reason with out any jerky gerky. (make sure frame limiter is active)
Happy gaming!

FPSE PSX Emulator on NT

Howdy y'all. This isn't really a device-specific question, but I have it on the Nook Tablet, so hopefully that's good enough to keep it here.
I've got FPSE running Final Fantasy VII on my NT, and I had a question of anyone who's played this game on this emulator before, even if on another device: How do I "switch discs" when it comes time to do so?
Thanks!
There is no built in switch disk option with that emulator? Does it let you save right when you need to change a disk? If it does, you might be able to just load the save file and start on the second disk and continue from there.
I'm certain when you reach the end of a disc it automatically takes you to the save screen, then you load the save with the next disc. Just curious, how does the music for FF7 sound on your nook, mine sounds choppy.
Sadly the sound is pretty lousy. Damn shame as the soundtrack was so epic.

I found this on another post here. Try installing psx4droid v2 1.1.2
I couldn't get psx4droid to work until I tried that version. The FF7 soundtrack sounds how it should but at the moment that game is slightly sluggish so I'm trying to find the right settings.
do you have a link for psx4droid apk?
thanks!

[Q] Emulators after ICS not working

Anyone else try nesoid, snesoid, n64oid, etc?
None work after I updated to ICS. I get the intro screen on the games and then a blank black screen and force close. There goes one of the best things about the tab..
I'm assuming I'll just have to wait for an app update for ICS

My N64oid and SNESoid both work fine after ICS....
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
For me, snesoid seems to be hit or miss now. Donkey Kong Country would load, but after the logo the screen would turn black but with audio. Can't close it afterwards and have to force close.
Games like Final Fantasy III and Super Mario World loads and plays fine though.
Edit: Downloaded SuperGNES and those games now work.
I am also having issues with SNES and ICS. IT will load with a black screen and audio then force close. I have gotten it to load once and it was super smooth for like 10 minutes then my TFP suddenly restarted.
Hoping for some updates or more stable emus! This was one of the main reasons I invested in the keyboard dock for USB controller support.
Anyone else having luck with SNESoid since ICS update?
I have no issues with emulators on ICS. I have snesdroid, Genedroid, Neodeoid, & FPse. All work great. Its always been some roms are hit or miss. Depending on the source you get it from. For me all my emulator games work fine.
SNESoid not working
I am also facing an issue with snesoid with ICS. When i open any rom it goes blank and again returns to the select ROM window.
Update: I installed supergnes and everything works perfectly
What about nesoid? Its very choppy for me on ics. Its on Xperia play.

N64oid

Hello guys,
Now I have Android running on my TP, I really like the look of playing Mario 64 and other old games. Could anyone share info with me on what emulators are good and how to actually get them working on the TP? I downloaded N64oid v2.6 to my PC, but don't actually know how to get it installed on my TP.
Many thanks,

Or just go to Play Store and search emulator, there are loads of them !

Also if you have chainfire3dpro it can make a huge difference with this emulator.

What's it do mate? I read it's a driver for the GPU - Does it make a difference with all gaming emulators and games?
EDIT - Downloaded it (Not the PRO version) and it doesn't really make a difference. Does the PRO make the difference?

I'd like to know why as well. I thought this is heavily based on CPU performance as it is emulated software.
I find that with Chainfire3D and the Adreno2xx drivers installed, N64oid runs perfectly with no hickups. Even the most intense scenes in Zelda Ocarina of Time runs flawlessly at high framerate.

Can someone enlighten me as to which settings in chain fire should be used and why they increase performance? Also, is there any way to add custom virtual controller skins? The default options don't work too well with the large screen of the touchpad.
Also, majora's mask fails to render the bomber's notebook making most the of the unplayable. Does anyone know of a fix?
