| 5 | About |
| 6 | ----- |
| 7 | |
| 8 | PCSX ReARMed is yet another PCSX fork based on the PCSX-Reloaded project, |
| 9 | which itself contains code from PCSX, PCSX-df and PCSX-Revolution. This |
| 10 | version is ARM architecture oriented and features MIPS->ARM recompiler by |
| 11 | Ari64. It was created for Pandora handheld, but should be usable on other |
| 12 | devices after some code adjustments. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | PCSX ReARMed features GPU and SPU plugins from PCSX4ALL project. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Usage |
| 18 | ----- |
| 19 | |
| 20 | This version features a framebuffer driven menu that can be used to run |
| 21 | games and configure the emulator. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | Supportd CD image formats: |
| 24 | - .bin/.cue |
| 25 | - .bin/.toc |
| 26 | - .img/.ccd/.sub |
| 27 | - .mdf/.mds |
| 28 | - .Z/.Z.table |
| 29 | |
| 30 | CDDA (CD audio) support requires .cue/.bin format. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Plugins |
| 34 | ------- |
| 35 | |
| 36 | GPU (graphics) and SPU (sound) plugins can be selected in |
| 37 | [BIOS/Plugins] menu: |
| 38 | |
| 39 | builtin_gpu - the P.E.Op.S. GPU plugin, most accurate but slow. |
| 40 | gpuPCSX4ALL.so - plugin from PCSX4ALL project. Faster but has some glitches. |
| 41 | gpuGLES.so - experimental port of P.E.Op.S. MesaGL plugin to OpenGL ES. |
| 42 | Occasionally faster but has lots of glitches and seems to |
| 43 | be rather unstable (may crash the system). |
| 44 | builtin_spu - P.E.Op.S. SPU plugin, most accurate but slow. |
| 45 | spunull.so - NULL plugin, i.e. no sound emulation. |
| 46 | |
