You can even keep your ROMs in zip format OpenEmu will handle decompression. It does for ROMs what iTunes does for other media: basically it makes your game collection the focus, and tries to make the actual emulation seamless and transparent to the user. OpenEmu is a ROM library management and emulator front-end application. ThatвЂ™s what enabled OpenEmu to come along and put a front-end on the emulation cores of a dozen or so different emulators.

Thanks to the authors of those emulators, much of their work is open-source at this point too. Basically any living room console older than the year 2000, and all handhelds before the current generation (before 2011 or so). The lower-powered game consoles have all been well emulated by this point.

I had only ISO images, so I had to re-rip a game in cuesheet format in order to successfully add it to my OpenEmu game library.

OpenEmuвЂ™sВ вЂњemulator coreвЂќ for PS1 emulation is Mednafen, and this emulator requires all games be provided in cuesheet format.

It turns out the filenames were also important, and that I had to rename the files I had to be the expected filenames: But, after I found a set of BIOS ROM images online, adding them this way still didnвЂ™t work. Searching around, I learned that you add the BIOS file(s) by dragging and dropping the *.bin files (BIOS ROM images) like you would a game ROM.

The UI does nothing to explain how to provideВ the PlayStation BIOS file.

I tested out PlayStation support, and ran into a few obstaclesВ before getting things to work. The experimental build version adds support for: The official release version of OpenEmu supports: Wow, itвЂ™s actually better than PCSX-Reloaded! Over the weekend I tried out the experimental versionвЂ™s Playstation 1 emulation. In my last post about OpenEmuВ I mentioned theВ вЂњexperimentalвЂќ build that adds support for many more systems than the official release of the program.
