Original Source Code

Below is an archive of Stenzeks original PUBLIC source which has since been expanded and improved upon. https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/archive/a3eeed316a0bdcb60a445fe6237b0777f40d553b.zip

Improvements Made To The Original Source Code

• Backports from PCSX2 to both the GameDB as well as various changes to the backend, this has resulted in some improvements such as the Spider-Man games now working with the Hardware Renderer (don't get too excited, they crash after a couple minutes).

• Lots of changes to UI elements, the settings page has been heavily altered so where most options are located makes more sense, also has a Directory settings tab where you can set the directories to wherever you wish.

• Made some changes to the control scheme, I would recommend viewing the little question mark bubble in the top right of the main menu but basically LB/RB can be used to jump through Game List entries, pressing Start on an entry now opens up the Game Properties menu and the Back button exits to Main Menu.

• Fixed the looping settings issue caused by 2 options being named the same.

• Changed the default font used by the app to one users should be more familiar with.

• Altered how most of the OSD elements are displayed, the FPS counter no longer has [G] and [V], the FPS now just shows the games internal FPS instead.

• Altered the language used for things like switching to the Software/Hardware renderer to be not so long-winded.

• Removed most options located in the Game Properties menu due to them being non-functional.

• Changed around the Quick Menu option placements to be more inline with something we're all familiar with.

• Added basic shaders/filters in the form of FXAA, Brightness, Contrast and Saturation adjustments and some CRT filters.

• Able to remap controls/hotkeys from within the Settings.

• Networking features are enabled by default making online play much simpler for new users.

• Disables the Enable XInput Source option from Controller Settings to avoid any users potentially disabling it.

• Pressure Sensitive Buttons will now actually work with the Apply Pressure setting in controls, before the pressure modifier was set too high resulting in the button press being registered as a hold regardless.

• When saving to a Memory Card Folder there will now be an appropriate OSD message displaying as such.

• New Exploded PS2 App, Splash and Menu Icon.

• Adjusted how the PAD values were stored resulting in only being able to choose between 0/1/2% instead of the intended 100%/200% for most settings.

• The Back Button is no longer hard coded to be the "Go Back" button, instead you now can use the B button to close menus AND use it to go back, doing this previously wasn't possible.

• The icons used on the Settings/Game Settings bar have been resized (slightly larger) and they are no longer marginally cut off on the left hand side.

• The CRC code of the selected game is now displayed along side Filename, Region etc which should make confirming the CRC less inconvenient and so much more!
