Hallo guys,
afaik Bleem and VGS did not need a BIOS to run PS1 Games. ePSXe and Mednafen do need them. PCSX2 and RPCS3 are asking for BIOS files too. OK you can download BIOS for PS3 from Sony Homepage.
My question is:
1. What makes the BIOS so hard that it seems to be harder to create a BIOS replacement for the Emulator than the Emulation of commercial games and Hardware?
2. now there is another PS2 Emulator Projekt (also open source) which is trying to make a BIOS Replacement. How hard would it be to use this code in PCSX2 ? Since both seems the same OSS License it should be fine to get inspired by them.
3. What had Bleem what ePSXe and Mednafen didn't?
Greetings
