[B]Usage:[/B] Only PBP and CHD files are supported, there are some emulator options you can change. A bios is not required, but is highly recommended. To use a bios you need to copy the bios file in the same folder as this program. Compatible bios files are: [I]psxonpsp660.bin scph101.bin scph5501.bin scph7001.bin scph1001.bin[/I] If you copy more than one bios file, the previous list shows the priority order. There are some quick presets which can help if you don't know how to tweak the emulator options: [B]Quality:[/B] Makes no sacrifices and provides full quality while trying to speed things at least a little. Simple 2D games should run fine. [B]Safe:[/B] Good middle ground between speed and quality, only makes the necessary sacrifices to ensure good compatibility and speed. [B]Fast:[/B] Sacrifices some quality to run fast but not going too far. Most games should run well with this preset. [B]Turbo:[/B] Things start to get ugly here, but at least the games run fast, right? [B]Max Speed:[/B] Doesn't care about quality at all, speed is all that matters. If you enable the second memory card this will be created in the [I]sdmc:/retroarch/forwarders[/I] folder and will be shared among the games, this is useful for games that can use other games save files (like Resident Evil 2 if you prefer to have the Leon and Claire discs separated). Games that have Libcrypt copy protection will need SBI files if aren't patched. If you put your SBI file alongside the game, the creator will detect it and add it automatically (indicated by the "+ Single SBI" next to the selected game name) as long as it has the same name as the game. If the game is a multidisc PBP you have to append an underscore and the number of disc the SBI file corresponds to at the end (e.g. if the PBP is named "Final Fantasy IX (EUR).pbp" the SBI files should be named "Final Fantasy IX (EUR)_1.sbi", "Final Fantasy IX (EUR)_2.sbi", etc...). You'll know if the creator detected your SBI's if it says "+ Multi SBI" next to the selected game name. [B]Key mapping:[/B] The buttons are assigned as follow by default, they can be changed (controller type cannot be changed and still needs to be set in the creator): PS1 Cross = 3DS B PS1 Circle = 3DS A PS1 Square = 3DS Y PS1 Triangle = 3DS X PS1 L1 = 3DS L PS1 R1 = 3DS R PS1 L2 = 3DS ZL PS1 R2 = 3DS ZR PS1 L3 = 3DS Left Touch PS1 R3 = 3DS Right Touch PS1 Start = 3DS Start PS1 Select = 3DS Select The 3DS touchscreen contains 2 extra buttons at the top left and top right, if you touch top center both touch buttons will be pressed at the same time. You can disable the option [I]Show Touchscreen buttons[/I] in the creator to turn off the bottom screen. The touch buttons will still be there.

Q: Hey, the [I]Change Disc[/I] option isn't there. A: If the option is missing then the PBP you used only has a single disc. Q: What is the difference between [I]analog[/I] and [I]dualshock[/I]? A: analog refers to the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_Analog_Joystick']PlayStation Analog Joystick (SCPH-1110)[/URL] or the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_Analog_Controller']Dual Analog Controller (SCPH-1150 or SCPH-1180)[/URL] with the green led lit (Flighstick mode), while dualshock refers to the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DualShock']DualShock Controller (SCPH-1200)[/URL] or the Dual Analog Controller with the red led lit.
