We won’t even mention the following generations of Sony’s consoles.Īll this is our polite way of saying that PSP games usually look much worse than anything running on a PlayStation 2 or newer. So, although the PSP was released after the PlayStation 2, its actual performance is far lower than its bigger brother’s. The reason we mention this as a disadvantage is that, as hardware shrinks, so does its performance. Well, yes, obviously, a portable console should be, first and foremost, portable. Tastes and opinions differ, and whereas someone might love a CRT filter because it reminds him of his childhood sitting in front of the family’s TV with a home console, another will hate a CRT shader’s unavoidable fuzziness.Īlso read: How to Play Playstation 2 Games on Linux with PCSX2 Rendering Resolutionĭespite having a well-respected collection of outstanding games, the PSP, hardware-wise, was not only based on what is today considered ancient technology but also had the disadvantage of being portable.
Instead of trying to describe them all, it might be best if you tried them one by one to see which you’d like to use. They can, for example, smooth out annoying pixels in graphics (antialiasing), make your new screen look ancient (CRT scanlines), or modify a game’s colors (natural colors). Postprocessing shaders are filters applied to the game directly on the GPU. In contrast to the software rendering, we saw in the previous step “Postprocessing shader” does not help solve problems and compatibility issues, but can dramatically change how PPSSPP presents all PSP games. Although rarely needed, in some cases it can be a one-way street for the proper reproduction of a title trouble-free – at least until the release of a new version of the emulator that fixes the problems that plague it. This has much lower performance but also significantly increased compatibility.
Keep a mental (or actual) note of this option, for you may need it in the future: if a title has any problems with its graphics, try changing the emulator’s Rendering Mode to “Software rendering (slow).” The full set of options and settings, however, is only accessible through the Settings option through its, for lack of a better term, in-emulator environment. This menu is inaccessible in full-screen mode.
One of them is its typical top-row menu if you have PPSSPP running in window-mode. PPSSPP gives access to the same options from two different points.
