Ok so we had the snes9xTYL MECM 091011-4 released just over a week ago. But Zack’s modded Snes9xTYL R1 build is the fastest yet. Running most games at a cool 55-60fps (PAL), thats with 3 frame skip and 4:3 ratio zoomed as the setting. I can confirm that testing Donkey Kong Country running at a smooth 60fps (see below video) and FF4 that its indeed the fastest SNES emulator out there.
Before FF4 would slow down somewhat in the fight sequences, well not now. Check out for yourself.
SNES9X Euphoria R1 Release text:
The only game I have tested with my version is Kirby Super Star, which I know had terrible FPS with other Snes9X releases (usually < 30Fps)
With my build, using the following settings, Kirby Super Star runs @ a minimum of 44Fps and a max of 60fps with the usual fps being 50fps.
Settings :
Renderer : PSP Accelerated
FrameSkip : 3This does not generate a jerky experience, it finally feels playable
Other testing :
Donkey Kong Country : Same settings as above :
Min FPS : 58
Max FPS : 60The speedups should be global, every game should be a lot faster now
Future :
I plan on improving speed more, improving stability and applying the changes from Snes9X1.51 to Snes9X euphoria also (which is running off the 1.42 code base)

October 19, 2009 at 1:42 pm

With the same settings SNES9x TYL ME runs faster
October 19, 2009 at 1:44 pm
I might just have to try this one. The menus in Ninja Gaiden Trilogy were very slow, if this fixes those then I’m sold. =P
October 19, 2009 at 2:17 pm
So how good is it?
October 19, 2009 at 2:17 pm
gonna try it.

Depends on how it plays crono trigger
October 19, 2009 at 3:16 pm
pfft, play crono trigger on the PSX using popsloader works fine.

Wow, SNES emu updates! I am looking forward to seeing if Super Metroid Redesign works with this (freezes normally)
October 19, 2009 at 2:46 pm
I would really like saving and loading states with a button only..
October 19, 2009 at 3:27 pm
You mean like the Genesis emulator? I don’t think that would work with the SNES, too many buttons.
October 20, 2009 at 5:43 am
I would sacrifice the Start and Select buttons for it.
October 19, 2009 at 5:07 pm
Error reading memory stick. Awesome! The last update didnt screw up my shit this bad. Whats the deal?
October 19, 2009 at 6:35 pm

October 19, 2009 at 11:40 pm
well what i did was i took the last two snes tyl updates and murged all them together with this new one and ketp the new eboot and now it works pefecly only problem is it keeps saying some kind of error shit but after that it works fine pm if you need more help in this subject
October 19, 2009 at 5:29 pm
So KSS is finally playable?
October 19, 2009 at 7:33 pm
anyone know how to fix the error reading memory stick?
October 20, 2009 at 10:01 am
To fix this you should copy your roms outside of emulator folder e.g. ms0:/SNES/
When encounter “error reading memory stick” press triangle, this will bring you to the parent folder and you will be able to select any dir on memory card except folder where emulator eboot is stored.

thanks

Two crashes I noticed still exist albeit the speed tweaks are efficient.
Megaman X2: Magna Centipede- guaranteed level crash at mid-point of level- freeze.
Street Fighter II Turbo- None: probably fixed.
Super Metroid: Tallon Overworld, missile-door, on entry there is a freeze.

Might need to download this and try out Legend of the Super Saiyan as playing it on the pc pissed me off a lot
October 20, 2009 at 12:11 pm
I have found that the best combination to play a Super Nintendo Emulator is this:
1) dload snes9xTYL MECM 091011-3 emulator which is the snes emulator released before the Euphoria version.
2)replace the eboot of this file with the eboot that comes with Snes9xTYLsmcm Test 5 27/05/08
3)Adjust the settings to:
Renderer : PSP Accelerated
FrameSkip : 2
This was tested on Donkey Kong Country and Killer Instinct using a psp slim TA-088 V1/V2 model with 5.0m33-6 cfw and played perfectly.
You may be asking “why not just use the Snes9xTYLsmcm Test 5 27/05/08 emulator and change the settings?” That is fine unless you are using the “game_categories” plugin. If you were to place
the Snes9xTYLsmcm Test 5 27/05/08 emulator into a specially made folder lets say Cat_Emulators, then it would appear as a “corrupt” icon on the xmb menu because the file name turns out to be more than 18 characters long. Only a file name of 18 characters or less will not be corrupt.The only way to see it would be to disable the “game_categories” plugin. Renaming the file name to less than 18 characters would also cause the emulator to crash.
For this reason we use the snes emulator snes9xTYL MECM 091011-3 which turns out has a file name of exactly 18 characters when dloaded and we use the eboot file of the most up to date snses emulator for the slim.We change the setting and voila. We now have a fully functional snes emulator that we can use with the game_categories plugin.

It’s great to see SNES emu on PSP is still been worked on, I hope we see more updates in the future that make snes9x even more efficient
October 20, 2009 at 6:53 pm
Forget changing to 4:3 screen size and frame skip 3. Instead, switch the Sound Output frequency to 33075hz or 44100hz and if game is a bit slow (Donkey Kong for example) use frame skip 1.
Side note: I used psp accel. + accur. soft. game engine for most game play but sometimes you need to change it to see certain graphics in games.(use L + START to switch game engines faster during game play and to use the menu when using psp accelerated).
October 20, 2009 at 11:06 pm
lol in tthat test 5 release i already had donkey kong country at full speed without any frame skipping at all, just any psp accel mode and 333mhz and it worked no problems @ 60fps all the way, and this emulator version doesn’t seem to do that, but it’s mentioned to be better, wtf?
