Imgema Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) I'm upgrading my emulators and decided that its time to upgrade to CoinOPS EPIC from the old GOLD version i'm using (even though i am very happy with it). One thing i noticed about EPIC is that it takes about 3-4 times longer to load the same roms compared to Gold. It goes like this: I click on a game to load and it takes about 5-6 seconds before it quits the GUI while with Gold it was instant. Then i get a black screen for a few seconds more, before the actual loading bar starts (which loads slower than it did in Gold anyway). This happens even with old early 80's games that don't weight more than a few kbs. I just wanted to ask if this behavior is normal or there's something wrong with my setup. Anyway, i'm downloading R2 version now to see if its faster. Great work and thanks in advance. Edit: Oups, i just saw a solution in FAQ that i missed before, derp.

BritneysPAIRS Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 ya...its due to massive amount of games now....and the tracking if you delete the catver.ini and removed most of the games it would boot the same...but I gave you an option to remove tracking and speed up the process and added it to the FAQ alot arnt reading it first....

BritneysPAIRS Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 what do you think of keymapping? alot easier than the other emus to work out what button is what and map...am I right or am I right.... I had to rewrite the code and then figure out every button and where they where on every controller....man although using a common file for this stuff is a good idea it made it very hard to work out what was going on...and also ment you had allow for two button mapping which doesnt work with in game keys and only with gui keys Anyways hope you like the improvements alot of this stuff has been asked for a bit the console path sould allow for smb console support and also console support from dvd is setup correctly.....I might expand on this if people use it and definable paths for alot more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilExile Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hey BP, Just curious, what were the virtual memory issues with CPS2 games? Can't wait to try the new build! Hopefully tonight. Talk soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdtorrents Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) no where in the FAQ Can i see how to add games that have been HomeBrewed for Xbox... how/where do i add them? Also you mentioned SMB...can i network the roms think i have the idea......i think.... do i have to use the shortcut maker for each individual homebrew game??? EDIT : The FAQ/Readme.... Call me a total noob if you like (lol i feel like i am right now) but it doesn't really explain what you have to do, well it does if your familiar with it and as i am not i am clueless. But anyway i will persevere and try to figure it out all i achieved so far is a shortcut to resetting the XBOX Edited January 25, 2011 by rdtorrents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baa Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Thanks for R2, great job!!! My future request for Epic R3:In game keymapping and service mode for games (when CPS2 core is enable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdtorrents Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) still cant figure out how to add the homebrew games... A 'how to in steps' structure would be nice instead of cryptic crap, soz dude i love your work but im sick of guessing now 'how to in steps' 1) you do this2) you do that3) put this there and that here4) yay game added that kind of thing Edited January 25, 2011 by rdtorrents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't in game keymapping what he just added? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godzizzle Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Your problem is that you put the xbe in the roms folder, it belongs in the CoinOPS root folder. The directions are straightforward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
