this file will download all the necessary packages and code, and set them up to run on boot up.įirst you need to pair your PS3 controller: using a Linux OS or a Virtual Machine, connect to the beaglebone.Ĥ) once done downloading, run the setup.sh file. this can be found here: Ģ) Attach all of your devices to the beaglebone and insert the microSD card. The approximate total cost is $120 + $5 per PS1 gameġ) Flash an microSD card with the latest stable Debian image.

Pcsx ps3 drivers#
This build consists of a few necessary components:ĬD drive: (I would recommend because it doesn't need drivers and it's a cheaper option) īluetooth dongle: (you can use any that work with linux but this is the one I used) Even with the few problems I would say that the cd drive, bluetooth connection, display, and emulator all work effectively together as a ps1 emulator console. The overall console works and can run on its own. It stops every so often even though the game itself is running smoothly. In addition, the audio doesn't run very smoothly. running games straight from the cd drive didn't work, but I was able to download an convert the cds to bin/cue files which the emulator can run. I also got the bluetooth connection to the PS3 controller to work. Run on the beaglebone and display it onto a screen.


In addition the PS3 controller can be connected via Bluetooth by using a Bluetooth dongle. The games played on the beaglebone are loaded from CD drive. It will also be able to display onto monitors or TVs. This project sets up a ps1 console emulator onto the beaglebone and controls the games using a connected dualshock 3 controller.
