PSP7800 is an Atari 7800 ProSystem emulator for the Sony PSP from Ludovic Jacomme (aka Zx-81).

It is based on ProSystem Emulator v1.1, an Atari 7800 emulator for the PC and Windows OS, made by Greg Stanton.

Installation

Unzip the ZIP file, and copy the content of the directory to ms0:/PSP/GAME/.

Put your roms files on roms sub-directory.

If you want to use the original 7800 Bios, then put the file called 7800.rom in the /PSP/GAME/psp7800/ directory.

User guide

Load Rom files (A78)

Put your rom file (with .zip or .a78 file extension) on your PSP Memory Stick in the roms directory, and go to Load ROM from the emulator main menu.

You can use the virtual keyboard in the file requester menu to choose the first letter of the game you search (if you have tons of games in the same folder).

Use the Run key of the virtual keyboard to launch the rom.

Cheat Code (CHT)

You can use/add your own cheat codes in the cheat.txt file and then import them in the Cheat menu.

Using the Cheat menu you can search for modified bytes in RAM between current time and the last time you saved the RAM (monitoring values for example life numbers).

All cheat codes you have specified for a game can be save in a CHT file inside cht folder. For example, 

# Enable, Address, Value, Comment
#
1,36f,3,Cheat comment

Those cheat codes would then be automatically loaded when you start the game.

Settings

  • Sound enable.
  • Display fps.
  • Speed limiter.
  • Skip frame.
  • Render mode.
  • Delta Y.
  • Vsync.
  • Swap Analog/Cursor.
  • Active Joystick.
  • Auto fire period.
  • Auto fire mode.
  • Display LR led.
  • Clock frequency.

Key mappings

You can toggle between three different mappings in the emulator window (Standard, L-Trigger and R-Trigger mappings).

Not all games however can be played with the default keyboard mappings, you can write your own mapping file (KBD) to overcome the issue (follow the syntax from the sample files default.kbd in the kbd directory).

You can save/load and edit your own KBD files in Keyboard menu; and if the keyboard filename is the same as the rom file (A78) then when you load this rom file, the corresponding keyboard file will be automatically loaded.

Virtual keyboards

You can use the Danzeff On-Screen Keyboard (by Danzel and Jeff Chen) and IR keyboard for entering letters, special characters and digits.

Edit the pspirkeyb.ini file to specify your IR keyboard model, and modify eventually layout keyboard files in the keymap directory.
