    PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

    This is a general issue these days, not limited to Wiistation. Take a look at most of the decomps that we had in the last few years. Before getting the games to run 100% with clean code, people start adding tons of features that make it impossible to properly debug and fix anything. It also...

    PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

    I don't think we should worry about subchannel data in CHD's, because chdman does not support MSD/MDF or CCD/IMG/SUB or SBI files. These are the main formats that have subchannel data. Even if you try to convert a game with BIN/CUE/SBI, the SBI file will get ignored by chdman. Having said that...

    If I'm not mistaken, FLAC is even lighter than Zstandard and deflate (zlib) as it can be decoded on many DAP's with hardware even more restricted than the Wii. Do the crashes also happen with uncompressed bin/cue?

    PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

    CHDs using only zlib and FLAC were already faster than the ones using LZMA. The real issue was and is LZMA compression. zlib is fine. Here's an example: chdman - MAME Compressed Hunks of Data (CHD) manager 0.262 (mame0262) Input file: Akumajou Dracula X - Gekka no Yasoukyoku (Japan) (Rev 2)...

    PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

    @SaulFabre from a quick test, Akumajou DraculaX and Final Fantasy 8 seem to be working fine with Zstd CHDs. Thanks a lot for updating the lib! :yay:

    PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

    Taking a glance at popstation_md code (https://github.com/moparisthebest/popstation/blob/master/popstation_md/main.c), it seems that PBP uses zlib's deflate algorithm, so its maximum compression should be similar to what chdman uses when you create a CHD with only deflate.

    @SaulFabre any chance you could compile a version with updated libchdr?

    PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

    Just out of curiosity, what advantage is there in running PAL games in NTSC when there's a NTSC version of the same game? I can understand it when the game was only released in Europe.

    Which CD format(s) should be used for emulators on the Wii?

    That's quite interesting, I've never heard of it before. Too bad it hasn't been updated in a long time, but you can create a regular CHD with it that uses lossyWAV (FLAC) + LZMA and then use the latest CHDMAN to convert it to FLAC + Zstd with the "copy" command.

    It would be way more effective if the emulator added a version tag to these config files and overwrote them if it didn't match.

    PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

    No, but, on the Wii, CHDs using Zstandard will read faster and use less CPU/memory than the ones using LZMA. Still, uncompressed bin+cue should be used when trying to debug any issues with the emulator.

    Hi @Pk11 @RocketRobz, how feasible would it be to import GM9i's file management into pkmn-chest? I described my use case in Github issue #79 but there doesn't seem to be much activity over there.

    Has anyone fully played FF 7, 8, 9 or Lunar series (US NTSC) on any of these emulators? I'm planning to play them but I don't want to start if there are game-breaking bugs.

    I think it's always important to test games using BIN/CUE to rule out any issues related to the format. The emulator has a lot to improve as you can see by the many issues being reported here, so the format the game is in shouldn't be a high priority for the devs, IMO.
