WiiStation, formerly known as WiiSXRX_2022, is an emulator for the Sony PlayStation 1 (PS1/PSX/PSone) designed for the Nintendo Wii/Wii U. It was created by forking the original [WiiSXRX] emulator by NiuuS, which was originally a port of PCSX-Reloaded, but with many changes from PCSX-ReARMed.

The WiiStation emulator has been improved in several ways, including incorporating the CDROM and CDRISO codes from PCSX-ReARMed, which has greatly improved compatibility. CDDA (Compact Disc Digital Audio) tracks and multi-tracks are now supported. The timer codes from PCSX-ReARMed have also been incorporated, and the DFSound module from PCSX-ReARMed has been combined with the SDL library, resulting in improved sound quality.

The dynamic compilation instructions have been modified to allow games like Final Fantasy 9 and Biohazard 3 (Resident Evil 3) to run. The emulator also supports multiple languages and has a specific font. For certain Chinese culture games, the specific BIOS is automatically loaded. There are also minor corrections such as disc changing (swap) and automatic fixes for some games.

Note: A font file is read from a fixed location, so make sure that [sd:/wiisxrx/fonts/chs.dat] exists.

Goals

Improve the GTE (Geometry Transformation Engine) code for faster 3D game performance. Despite using paired single instruction, the speed is still not optimal.
Use GL graphics display mode for better image quality and performance. The developer has limited knowledge of OpenGL and is uncertain if grrlib can be used.
Support for DualShock 3, DualShock 4, and DualShock 5 controllers.
Ability to select other BIOS with basic buttons.
Implement 240p support.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

v20220618

Incorporating the CDROM and cdiso codes of pcsxrearmed, the compatibility of the system has been greatly improved.
- Many games that could not be run or had problems before can be run.
Combined the dfsound module of pcsxrearmed and used the SDL Library.
- The sound quality of the system has been greatly improved.
Modification of some dynamic compilation instructions, such as sllv, SRLV, srav, FF9 and biohazard3 can be run.
- (Part of the division instruction uses a static compilation instruction)
Support for multiple languages.
- At first, I wanted to refer to snes9xgx and support TTF font library.
- However, it encountered a memory leak problem, resulting in automatic exit.
- So it can only be made into a specific font.
- Font char information: first two byte: BigEndianUnicode char code, followed by a character picture in IA8 format with a size of 24 * 24.
For some customed Chinese culture games, specific BIOS is automatically loaded.
- For example: sd:\wiisxrx\isos\武藏传.ISO => sd:\wiisxrx\bios\武藏传.bin
Other minor corrections, such as disc changing and automatic fixed of some games.
