Incompatible with POPStater (PS2) #4

Since there's no version of the test suit for PS2, I though I could emulate this PS1 version on it to get similar results. However, I get nothing but a blank screen after loading it with POPStarter (a loader for the PS2's internal PS1 emulator; the process of loading an image envolves turning the .bin + .cue into a .vcd). I know it was probably never the intention, but I would really appreciate if it worked.

It also doesn't work on PSX emulators for the XBOX. The issue may be related to something in PSXSDK. I've had black screens on almost all PSXSDK homebrews with various emulators.

One could look into the startup process on a non-supported emulator and debug this. It may be the one problem that breaks PSXSDK titles on all the other emus.

For this case though, you can burn the image to CD and use one of the methods to boot it on the PS2: full PS2 modchip, swap trick or simplified / PSX only modchip.

I am unable to get this to run with PSIO on real PlayStation hardware (SCPH-1001). Also does not work in RetroArch on a PC (using Beetle PSX core).

Did anyone try with PSP/PSPGO by creating the eboot of this bin+cue?

It doesn't work on any emulator i tested, always gives black screen. Also it does not recognize input when using a Dualshock 2 on a PS1. If these problems are related to PSXSDK someone gotta port/compile this homebrew with Sony's official SDK, PsyQ

Apparently this forked version works. https://github.com/ggrtk/240pTestSuite-PS1/releases/tag/v0.1

“Note: The mkpsxiso tool in PSXSDK 0.6.2 (20190410) and earlier does not generate proper EDC/L-EC data for the bin/cue pair. An EDC correction tool needs to be run on the .bin generated by make for this test suite to run properly on some emulators. The release provided in this repository has had its sectors corrected.

Note 2: The test suite seems to require skipping the bios to boot properly on some emulators.”

This one didn't work either for me sadly, just a black screen like always
