    I don't have a PSP so I can't comment, however if the game crashes because it's doing crappy crappy things that work on real hardware and don't on the emulator then the emulator isn't very faithful at all.

    Because of the inaccuracy in all PS1 emulators you can't assume that working on an emulator will mean it works on real hardware or vice versa. There are some PSF (music rips) that only work on Neil Corletts bugged sound player and not on real hardware. IIRC the last one I looked at was putting a branch in a branch delay slot, which on real hardware can do one of two things depending on whether an interrupt occurs at the right (or wrong) time. But the PSF was coded to assume a third behaviour that never happens on real hardware.

    Well in this case there's code that won't execute on real hardware but will in epsxe. They released a statement that they were experimenting with C code which I imagine wasn't optimised or corrected to work on actual hardware.

    As for ripping assets from this build, I believe the contents are hidden/encrypted by whoever released it which would prevent us from directly ripping anything from it at the moment. The simple explanation for this is to prevent people from editing this build then flogging it as a 'new unseen build' on ebay I imagine.

    It also appears that a LOT of content was removed from this test build also on purpose to reduce exposing the vanilla assets to leaks just like the one which has happened.

    FYI the contents aren't encrypted nor compressed they're hidden.

    EDIT: Finally got the download link to work on another system. Now, if you will all excuse me I've got a lot of catching up to do!

    How do you unhide the folders? Messing with the windows folder options did nothing for me, nor am I able to see them in Isobuster.

    The original link works fine for me still, I've downloaded it onto 3 computers (when I was messing about burning it) and my phone pretty much instantly. Not sure what to suggest as I certainly don't intend on uploading it myself anywhere else nor do I feel like exposing myself via torrent to share it ether.

    Huh, I've not bothered looking in the iso myself, but surely the best way to hide them would be to encrypt them? If they're just hidden then I imagine it wouldn't take too much to find them using hex editors and a little knowledge of resident evil builds.

    go to the jump room selector on the debug menu and press triangle to skip to different areas of the build, areas you can't select by pressing just left and right.

    Just playing with the rom, came across this part. Could be my tired eyes playing tricks but is this a missing poster for Claire?

    Also Iv'e been using this emulator so far no real issues running it at all besides whats to be expected. Been far more stable for me than EXPSE.

    So i don't quite understand this "project" basically how are they expecting to complete this? Where are the resources coming from? Are they randomly sticking in new areas what they think it should look like? If there really is a later build which i heard apparently there is. I guess it's worth waiting for the official thing right? because it's not gonna be accurate?
