6.61 Adrenaline-4 released : Full screen PSX gaming on PSTV
TheFlow, of course, seems to have a hard time taking breaks. Now, he presents us with the 4th update to Adrenaline after releasing Adrenaline-2,3 and 3.1 in a short period of time. Adrenaline-4 brings about quite a few fixes and features pertaining to the PSX emulator so you really ought to upgrade to this release if you plan to do any PSX gaming on your Vita.
What’s Adrenaline-4?
Adrenaline is an eCFW for the PSVita’s built-in PSP emulator that lets you run all PSP games and homebrew. Apart from that, you may use plugins, homebrew that needs 64MB of RAM and you have access to full XMB! Adrenaline also lets you apply filters to your games, use savestates amongst other things.
What’s changed in Adrenaline-4?
This is the changelog of Adrenaline-4 and 3.1:
- Sound issues after exiting PSX games are fixed
- Support for CWCheat for PSX games has been added
- Custom graphic filters can now be used with PSX games
- Screen mode adjustment has been added for PSX games (read the changelog at the bottom of this article for more info)
- Screenshot support for PS1 games has been added
- The network update feature now can search for Adrenaline updates for easy updating!:o
- Various bug fixes
The update, especially for PSX lovers, is quite a big one so it’s recommended to upgrade immediately. You can use various methods to update to this version.
Conclusion:
Installing Adrenaline-4 is quite simple; you may either use Adrenaline Easy Installer 1.10 (1.10 is needed for Adrenaline-4 support) or you can install it yourself via editing taiHEN’s config file and dropping the plugin yourself. Adrenaline requires Vita FW 3.60, works on any PSVita and the PSTV and needs taiHEN.
Note: PSX means Playstation 1/PS1

Tiang paling semalu komentar 😀
Gue yang paling pertama komentar 😀
I’m the first of course 😀
for saying it cooool!!!!
awesome!!!!!
and now full usb mass storage support to put the whole f***ing ps1 library on that little crapper : D
Unfortunately Adrenaline-4 has some issues with input lag for PS1 games… Probably due to how the filters are being handled now. I’ve reverted back to 3.1 : /
Does the input lag happen even with the filters turned off on v4?
Is not exactly input lag,more like a general slowdown.
Everyone stay on 3.1 until this gets fix’d
Had none of those problems on my pstv :p Also, PS1 games looking really good in full screen but extraordinary in 4:3 with Advanced AA
Just modify the following:
CPU Clock Game: 333/166
CPU Clock XMB: 333/166 (optional)
from default via via VSH menu. This should fix the lag.
Inoticed on PSTV that after running another PSX game instead of an black screen it shows the last image from previously runned game. Also in full screen its missing a part of the picture on top and bottom.
PSX games sre 4:3 so to mske it fullscreen (16:9) you have to crop it, thats why it’s missing the top amd thd bottom. Unless the image it’s stretched which looks a lot worse.
i know butt the setting “Full” in Adrenaline is different than on the Vita witch shows the stretched picture.
Thank you for finally making the PS Vita do what I thought it was going to do when I originally bought it.
dam son
First.
First
Oh no. I wasn’t.
Darn.
Amazing!
2 questions though.
Do we have a list of games that will work on this (Mk Trilogy)
Is multiplayer available (lets say if you map buttons for player 2 or maybe remotely)
And thanks for all the hard work the flow!
This version seems to fix the issue with joystick stuttering in Final Fantasy 9! Thanks TheFlow!
This have support for plugins TempAR ?
>The network update feature now can search for Adrenaline updates for easy updating!:o
I’m surprised you kind of glossed over this part of the changelog – this is big, and one of the only things Adrenaline was missing 😀
TheFlow is awesome,
Wish this Bug was fixed : when runing ps1 game and then turning into standby mode, vita will shut down instead of entering standby mode.
Try to let the Vita go into standby itself. Mine did when I set it down for a while with Wild Arms running. When I returned and pressed the PS button, the screen glitched out, but then the game resumed. No shut down.
I used the easy installer (the proper version) and… All of my stuff on the homescreen disappeared. I checked in the content manager, and all of my games are under applications as nameless corrupted data. What should I do..?
Got it back to normal already? You should try refreshing the livearea in vitashell
Rebuild database man. Happened to me as well
I wish we could have full dualshock 4 support while playing PS1 titles. For some reason it does not seem to work for me.
It works everywhere else.
Can it fast forward/speed-up PS1 games like TN-X yet?
Gears Of Dragoon with its unskippable animations is nigh unplayable at the normal speed for me anymore for example. I’m not willing to give up on TN-X without this feature.
so witch adrenaline version and easy installer version works on normal psvita henkaku again ? lolz
if they’re saying adrenaline 4 isn’t working well for them, i’d say you should get 3.1.
It’s working flawlessly on my pstv though
I don’t understand why everyone left the Vita’s Native PS1 emulator behind for the PSP and RetroArch one. Why use anything else when there’s something there that’s already better? Is it really more difficult to exploit the built in emulator on the latest firmware than write a totally new one or build on a fundamentally inferior emulator emulated inside another emulator?
Adrenaline 3.1 ps1 emulation is almost close enough official ps1 emulation. Try it.
Adrenaline exploits the PSP emulator within the Vita. PS1 games on the vita are also emulated through its PSP emulator. That’s why you don’t see performance issues in Adrenaline and Ark, because the emulation was there already. The only way to play any PS1 game on the Vita flawlessly with audio on fw 3.60 is with Adrenaline, as Retroarch has its problems.
it’s “emulate-ception”.
Vita doesn’t have a “native” PS1 emulation.
The point is that TNX emulated the games perfectly and at higher resolution and less input lag. Adrenaline, which uses glorified “emulate-ception” doesn’t. Regardless of the fact that they both use the same emulator, this fact hold true. So once again, I ask the question: Why bother improving that aspect of Adrenaline instead of creating an updated TNX? Is it REALLY that much easier fix what is fundamentally broken then just find a new way to use something that works just fine?
Thank you TheFlow, you are amazing in every way.
do we have a list of games that are working? (mk trilogy)
also is there local multiplayer support/ network multiplayer?
also awesome job. anytime we get something that allows us some nostalgic stuff, makes us relive the good ol times
there’s ps1 local multiplayer for the pstv indeed.. all games are working :p (apparently)
Is there any way to reduce the input lag in Adrenaline? I decided to put ARK-2 on my system as well, and it’s much more responsive, nearly the equal of running native PSN installs on my Vita. I almost can’t even play action games as it stands in Adrenaline.
I went back to 3.1 There’s stutter in the opening cinema for Dracula X in 4.0 that is resolved by using that version, and the lag I was experiencing is gone.
Please help i have hust updated now im get error C1-2858-3. It was working fine before now nothinh plz help. Thanks
