The speed Robert is able to develop at is just incredible.

Indeed!

Let us pray to the Retro Gods that 2022 will be the year of the 32-bit cores.

MiSTer FPGA PSX Core - first games running, new ingame video, and glitch is gone.

[Neocaron]

How did he manage to get everything cleaned up so fast though? This is unbelievable... 0_0

^^^^^^^

[thorr]

Incredible!

[Xbytez]

Another dev update

[MostroW]

i'm so stoked on this, can't wait till these cores are available!

[allegrosurf]

looks like it boot from iso now...

[cursedverses]

CD support hasn't been implemented yet, judging by the blurb on Github. I saw a post where he mentions creating snapshots on his simulator for testing on the MiSTer box.

Another excellent development update to the PSX Core.

[hiddenbyleaves]

Wow!!

[MostroW]

that is pretty awesome to say the least!

[Captain FPGA]

Let's get it!!!!!

[vanfanel]

It has taken some DAYS to complete the MDEC! This man is awesome, it's just incredible how fast he is!

[friendly.joe]

Someone once told that creating a PSX Core would require a team of people.
The reality is being proved otherwise by this incredibly talented developer. Just WOW!

This is an insane amount of progress. Only the CD and SPU are completely missing now.

Another PSX core work in progress update that Robert has shared on twitter:

[pgimeno]

Awesome! Will we get SBI support, or do we need to find cracks of the affected games?

[caffeinekid]

I can't see that game boot, even silently, without singing LIGHTS OUT! GORRILA RADIO!

[Xbytez]

Thick & fast these updates are dropping from the FPGA gods!

[MostroW]

that is quite some progress, even though the 2nd sdram module is required for now on the horizon it might be even possible to go with a single module?!

[PikWik]

so the general thought is that dual SD ram will be required for the PS1 core.
both from the core developer, and rumors of saturn requiring this as well.
if i had to guess, i would say CPS3 will also require dual SD RAM

the response to people who use the analog IO board is that you will need to get a digital IO board
(if SNAC and user buttons/fan are needed)

if thats the "new" suggested setup of the MiSTer, im fine with that.
but, i want to confirm what SD RAM is recommended?

Jotego found that the 32mb RAM is actually faster than 128 modules and can run at ~150mhz, where the 128mb runs at ~130mhz.
i dont want to buy the wrong one, so my question to @FPGAzumSpass @Jotego @srg320 is which RAM is required/recommended??

[Kitrinx]

Get standard official designed SDRAM from a trusted seller, like MisterAddons for USA or Ricardo(Ultimate Mister) for europe. Avoid any non-standard designs and you wont have to worry about it. 128mb is fine and it's what most mister owners have, so it will work for any official core.

[Milspex]

also wait until it is actually needed before getting dual sdram.

Also can confirm Ricardo, it's where I got mine and it is perfect.

i hear ya, and im hoping these new cores wont require a new MiSTer setup

yes, it will soon work with only 1 32mbyte stick without sound. What will happen with sound is unclear, but there will be no need for 128mbyte sizes sticks very likely
