Yet another update to the outstanding PSP emulator for Windows and Android.
This time, like many previous updates we're getting performance boosts and couple of changes in how the Audio is being emulated.
One of the main changes in 1.4 is an update to the DX11 backend. Devs are saying that the performance with it is better than DX9 and OpenGL on most hardware.
Full changelog on what's been updated can be found down below:

Support D3D11 (performs better than OpenGL or D3D9 on most hardware)
Audio quality improvement (linear interpolation) (#8950)
Hardware spline/bezier tesselation in OpenGL, D3D11 and Vulkan (...)
Post-processing shaders in D3D11
Prescale UV setting removed, now the default (improves perf) (#9176)
High DPI display fixes
Various fixes for UMD switching for multi-UMD games (#9245, #9256)
New audio setting to improve compatibility with Bluetooth headsets
Various desktop gamepad compatibility fixes

It's amazing how well this emulator runs on my PC.

The audio has gotten better actually, thanks to linear interpolation, much closer to how the real audio is handled

YES! YES! YEEEEESSSSSS!

Serious question though, does it make out run 2 sp work better, does online with android even work with pc or real psp players, and did they fix that one problem with Hitman reborn game! O_O

 

[kingraa777]

ohhh so many questions

As long as God of War plays smoothly, I'm down. They are my benchmark games for PPSSPP, and are always a bit laggy.

Multiplayer on Android is what I'm interested in, hopefully compatibility is improved.

-2.00 GB of RAM.
-Faulty mouse wheel.
-Faulty keyboard.

ATI Radeon HD 5450 Graphics.

NOPE! outrun still runs bad, and they didn't fix that bug in Hitman Reborn.

Multiplayer on Android is what I'm interested in, hopefully compatibility is improved.

If you can get it to run multiplayer, we can do power stone, i been trying to get 4 player power stone 2 for so long.

They can only do so much at a time to improve it.

I wasn't expecting a dramatic improvement but the bug in hitman is like game breaking, i doubt they know about it. Just have to keep waiting.
