PCSX-ReARMed - yet another PCSX fork
+http://notaz.gp2x.de/pcsx_rearmed.php
+
About
-----
Ari64. It was created for Pandora handheld, but should be usable on other
devices after some code adjustments.
-It does not, however, have anything in common with similar psx4all and
-pcsx4all projects, except that all of these are PCSX ports.
+PCSX ReARMed features GPU plugin from PCSX4ALL project.
Usage
This version features a framebuffer driven menu that can be used to run
games and configure the emulator.
-Supportd CD image formats:
-- .cue/.bin
-- .toc/.bin
-- .img
-- .mds
+Supported CD image formats:
+- .bin/.cue
+- .bin/.toc
+- .img/.ccd/.sub
+- .mdf/.mds
- .Z/.Z.table
+- .bz/.bz.table
+- .ZNX/.ZNX.table (partial)
+- EBOOT.PBP (PSP, partial)
CDDA (CD audio) support requires .cue/.bin format.
+The emulator can simulate BIOS, which means BIOS files are not required,
+however implementation is not complete and some games still need real BIOS
+to work. To use real BIOS, copy uncompressed BIOS files to
+[sd card]/pandora/appdata/pcsx_rearmed/bios/
+then select the BIOS you want to use in Options->BIOS/Plugins menu.
+
+Analog controllers are supported using nubs, but this is disabled by
+default and needs to be enabled in 'Controls' menu.
+
+
+Plugins
+-------
+
+GPU (graphics) and SPU (sound) plugins can be selected in
+[BIOS/Plugins] menu:
+
+builtin_gpu - the P.E.Op.S. GPU plugin, most accurate but slow.
+gpuPCSX4ALL.so - plugin from PCSX4ALL project. Faster but has some glitches.
+gpuGLES.so - experimental port of P.E.Op.S. MesaGL plugin to OpenGL ES.
+ Occasionally faster but has lots of glitches and seems to
+ be rather unstable (may crash the system).
+builtin_spu - P.E.Op.S. SPU plugin, most accurate but slow.
+spunull.so - NULL plugin, i.e. no sound emulation.
