Treat this as an experimental release and use this tool at your own risk. Warning: PSXPrev uses a lot of memory to scan files, so your system might run out of resources while scanning.

Links: Video tutorial | Compatibility list

PSXPrev uses:

• OpenTK
• DiscUtils
• Ozgur Ozcitak's ImageListView

Usage: A launcher interface will be displayed when running the application without passing any command line arguments. When passing command line arguments, PSXPrev will start scanning for files using the given parameters. As the scan runs, a new window will be displayed, containing the following tabs:

• Models: Viewer for models found while scanning files.
• Textures: Viewer for textures found while scanning files.
• VRAM: Viewer for a replica of PSX Video RAM, which consists of 32 256x256 textures. (These pages are used to compose the final textures applied to models)
• Animations: Player for animations found while scanning files.

Known issues/limitations: PSXPrev only finds files conformant to the file formats it's scanning for. PSXPrev can't scan any compressed or proprietary formats.
