Batocera 5.19 PSX BAD GRAPHICS

gesshe

I have installed batocera 5.19 emulating psx. The graphics do not have good quality. I have reviewed some tutorials by the network but in the retroarch configuration no certain options of previous versions appear that allowed to improve the graphics. Sorry for my poor knowledge of the language

Thanks

Had the same problem and followed instructions.
Unfortunatly, my PC start overheating and I have lost my GPU (intel graphics)

To enhance graphics in PSX, just go into EmulationStation Main Menu, and then "GAMES SETTINGS", "ADVANCED", "Sony Playstation 1" and set EMULATOR to LIBRETRO and CORE to MEDNAFEN_PSX.
Then in game press Hotkey + B to enter RetroArch Quick Menu and go to Options and change settings there (for example just set "Internal GPU resolution" to 2x or 4x).

I have changed the Core emulator to MEDNAFEN_PSX and now half of the games do not load. Those who start do it very slowly even forcing the GPU at different speeds (2x, 4x ...) In other tutorials indicate options change enhanced resolution (slow) and enhanced resolution speed but the version of pcsx is 1.3.6. These options are not available in the batocera options 5.19

Which games do not load? Maybe they are incompatible with Beetle-PSX (Mednafen).

Those options are only available in RPi-Versions of PCSX-ReARMed and unfortunately not in PC-Versions 🙁

Hey Joinski,

thanks for that hint - now my PSX Games really look very good. Perfect!

You're welcome!

By the way... PGXP perspective correct texturing and bilinear texture filtering can also enhance the graphics, see here:

But you have to be aware that in some games, some of the options can cause issues.

nour I managed to run the core mednafen and modify the parameters of the internal GPU, it looks better, the problem now is that since putting it in x2 the speed of the games goes down a bit and from x4 to below the speed loss is drastic, i try modifying other options but nothing changed. My pc is composed of an intel i5 7400, gpu gtx 1060 and 8 gb ram. for references, I am testing with the game Ridge Racer Type 4, European version. Any idea that could be? thank you

Did you enable nvidia driver?
And you could test, without the 1060 (so just use the Intel IGP HD Graphics 630)

Guys, If you are on a dual gpu setup (nvidia+intel), don't enable nvidia-driver. It will blacklist nouveau and you will disable 3d hw acceleration on the intel card. Unfortunately, we can't enable only the nvidia gpu in those setup out of the box yet

if you ONLY have a discrete nvidia gpu, enable nvidia-driver. I will provide a significant improvement over nouveau.

Good afternoonFriends of the forum batocera

I found this video of how to improve 100% the image of psx games this video serves for retropie, batocera and recalbox
since your psx game emulator is the: PCSX-ReARMed

TESTED AT RASPBERRY PI 3 B AND IT WORKED
NOW YES YOU CAN PLAY PSX WITH FULL SCREEN ON TV
USING RPI3 AND GAME SCREEN FORMAT 16/9

NOTE- IN SOME GAMES YOU CAN BE A SURE BLACK RICH IN THE CHARACTER THAT AND MORE FREQUENT IN 2D FIGHTING GAMES TYPE MARVEL VS CAPCOM BUT THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN IN ALL GAMES 2D SO IN SOME

Good Morning
in batocera version for pc does not have this options
strange because in the of raspberry has try the recalbox pc version and see if it has

friend but the standard emulator of psx games on batocera and PCSX-ReARMed
because these video tutorial options are only in PCSX-ReARMed

Are you using the latest version of Batocera 5.20?
because I always update my raspberry when a new version comes out

Stormbird

Jonas Yes 5.20 the version number, so I think this is the latest version.

Jonas

you have to play a game of ps1 first you enter into my retroarch batocera
So you do the configuration taught in the tuturial video

there is no mistake the retroarch menus of Batocera, Retropie and recalbox
for raspberry are all equal to the only difference that the retroarch menu of batocera and more updated than of the recalbox
but other than the retroarch menu options of the PCSX Rearmed and the same
