[Discussion] 60FPS patches for PSP games that run at 30FPS

[Kabuto_Kun]

@chaoslordd The game needs different cheat values for singleplayer and multiplayer... so weird. I see that the additional lines for the speed modifier code are always the same, they may not be really useful. In short, would this be the correct cheat file?

Code:

I modified the speed floats for multiplayer, 3EAB instead of 3EAA is a better aprox. for 0.66... If this cheat is ok, you can post it and I will delete this one, thanks to you we have the cheat of course.

Thanks for your interest. Will do!

MGS Portable Ops [USA], ULUS10202.ini
HERE

Thanks to your ram dumps it was easy to port, but remember the known issues:
- You can't press your back against a wall (60 fps cheat only).
- Some time(?) based actions (like grenade explode time) have problems too (almost not noticeable with the 30 fps cheat).
- Conditional 60 FPS cheat: the game will run at 60 fps only on "real" gameplay, not on the menus. This avoids cutscene desync issues.

i tried yours, but it didnt seem to work, the speed seemed high again.
i tested both sp and mp. the only problem i found is that 60 fps locks the character from running (i dont know why). the fps value is the same for mp and sp (i used your easy guide as reference), i searched the value in sp when it was in 30 fps and i searched again in mp when it was 20, but it was the same adress. i changed the values of my cheat with the ones you suggested.

with this cheat, i think it works as intended, only problem i found is the character not running in 60 fps

Hello,

I know this isn't related to PPSSPP development. But I was wondering how people are making 60 fps cheat codes for PSP games? I wouldn't mind trying to make some for games that don't have a 60 fps code available.

Thanks

It's a bit complicated, but if you're confident enough that you can pull it off... then good luck.

Is there a chance that the Monster Hunter Portable 3rd patch to be finished? It's hard to complete missions since the timer is doubled and the camera is too fast

[Slightly Apathetic Mio]

I'd like to create some patches for games. What was the method taken to make these?

[yazza2015]

So I posted a thread yesterday asking how to make 60 fps cheat codes. I've figured out a code for NFS undercover USA ISO

I don't fully understand the CWcheat format

Is the second address the value we want in place? For example, would changing the 1 on the end of the second address to a 2 change it to 30 fps?

Here's the code.

_C1 Force 60 FPS
_L 0x208697BC 0x00000001

I made a thread in the development section yesterday. Check it out, it has links to tutorials.

Merged.

I enabled the FF Type Zero 60 fps hack but it makes the game run at 30 fps at half speed. So I tried making the emulator run at double speed so that the game would play at 60 fps at normal speed, but I couldn't figure out how to do this. I tried setting "alternative speed" to 200% but this did nothing. Any help? I'm using 0.9.8 BTW.

My OS is Windows 7, and in my experience Windows Aero (desktop composition) messes with most fps patches. Or maybe it's because I always play with 3D Vision 2...

Anyway, try disabling that if you use Windows 7 or Vista.

Copy this into a text file and change the extension to ".bat":

Code:

@echo off sc interrogate uxsms | find "1062" if %errorlevel%==0 goto :sc_start sc stop uxsms exit :sc_start sc start uxsms exit

Then you have to run it as an administrator. I use it to turn Aero off and on without changing the theme.

That worked, thanks!

The first tutorial is a bit complicated/ lack of explaining concepts for new people.

Second tutorial is easy, but doesn't apply to most games I've tried.

Can I request 60 FPS codes for games and have someone else make them?

I'd try and do it myself, but the tutorials don't explain everything properly (Referring to the first one). If I can grasp the concept, I'd write a more in depth tutorial for new users.

Didn't found it on thread,have anyone made 60FPS patch for 7th Dragon 2020 (NPJH50459) and 7th Dragon 2020-2(NPJH50716)?

Could have sworn I had tried to make one before, but I don't have any records of it. Anyways, I just tried kabuto_kun's easy method for 7th Dragon 2020, and it didn't work. There may be a patch down the line, but I certainly can't do much outside of the easy method. I don't have the sequel, currently, but I'll try it at some point if someone else doesn't beat me to it.


While I'm here I guess I should report that Persona 3 Portable, Valhalla Knights, and White Knight Chronicles Origins didn't work with the easy method, either. Was hoping to attempt more games before reporting, but I'm kinda running out of ones to try.

Also, if anyone wants it as a "resource" or whatever, I've made a (probably incomplete) list of games that don't work with the easy method and those that need a half-speed code to work. Idk where I should post it to keep it readily available/noticeable, though. Of course, I'll make sure to keep it updated if I do post it.
