psx emulation new-b need help

[305soldier]

alright for some reason when i try to play a game on epsxe1.6.0 whether its DOA or ff9 (those are the only 2 isos i have) the screen stays black like it froze even before i get to play.when i dled ff9 it said somthing like disc1 part1 so i guess i need to download a second part but before i do that i want to make sure that someone else has ether had this problem or know what i need to do to fix this.

[305soldier]

um is anyone going to help. this is really annoying that i can't play my isos.

[yugiohmaster]

have you ever played other games on this emulator maybe it is the graphics plug-in or the iso is bad or the iso is for the second disc of the game

[305soldier]

no i haven't played other games on this emulator and i don't think it's the plug-in im using petes opengl plugin. i think the biggest possebility is that the iso is bad. does anybody know a program that verifies if its a good or bad iso like goodN64 or somthing like that.

Did you run the ISO directly? Apparently I personally won't recommend you to do that as the emulator itself have some bug dealing with that. Try to use Daemon Tools to mount the image.

No, and it'll never will as there's a lot of ISOs in which there are many huge files (around 600-700MBs a game) to sort them out. GoodN64 is another matter.

If it is still don't work, try to use other PS emulators then for the likes of PSXeven. :cool:

alright thanks to everyone for the help. but im still not sure about the ff9 iso. like i said is the ff9 iso so big that they have to break it up into files? im not sure so can somebody tell me if they think that its real iso and if i should dl the rest of the files. its 10 files by the way.

[hagbard]

It's usual to split the some big files like isos on multiple files, like multipart rar's. Of course you need every part, once you got them unzip/unrar & you're ready to play

Bah! Leechers! :p

And you didn't mention that ISO was being splitted in multiple files earlier. :glare:

but i thought that daemon tools to make an image from a real disc not an iso and if you can give a walkthrough on how to do that it would be really helpful.

i did but nobody said anything about it so i thought i would mention it agian.and i also included more detail on the second time so thats a plus :p

Install DT, click tray icon -> click "Device =: [F:] No media" -> select your iso image

[305soldier]

heres another problem for you guys to solve, enjoy.
alright i dled and installed dt, i made the image and mounted it on the emu. now after maybe 2 mins of a black screen a message box comes up (very large might i add like if i was in safe mode) and it says something about a WGL file then i click ok and another message box pops up and says that epsxe has encouterd a problem and will now close.after all this happens all my icons are fucked up. what i mean by this is that it appears like if my computer was in safe mode(still, never really came out of that retarded imatation of safe mode) except i can't see all of my icons.

Sound like you have problems configuring the GPU plugin. Well..........

After you mount the CD image, try to make sure that the CD is fully 'complete' by exploring the CD. (I always check the ISO first before I play the game.)

Then, try to configure the graphics into windows mode as it is considered safer than clicking on full screen. Only Pete's GPU plugins have that windows mode function. Also, click on 'Nice' mode.

If the problem is not solved, try to use other emulators instead. :cool:

[305soldier]

okay i think the cd is complete cuz i put the bin (made a copy) that was in the archive inside another folder on my desktop and wouldn't stop if i didn't have all the files and the iso wasn't complete? then i made the image with DT and loaded it into the emu now with both emus (psxeven and epsxe) it says "no WGL extention" first what the hell is the WGL extention? also im using petes open GL2 plugin.

[hagbard]

Try Pete's OGL instead OGL2 plugin, or even the D3D one, as your video card itselft or drivers might not support OGL2.

[305soldier]

no good it just stays black.

I meant the CD itself, sometimes the doing a CD image failed to show what is supposed to be it is when you open explore the CD. I met with the same problem sometimes when I made an image.

No WGL extention....... Something related to your graphic card which can't support GL.

Here's something similar problem to this one.

So, use others Pete's plugins and NOT OpenGL series. :cool:

[305soldier]

i got it to work i had to mount the bin directly to the emulator.
but now it plays kinda choppy.

[DrAkeNgaRd_KneLL]

maybe you can now run tests and retests on the emulator. sometimes the emulator kinda destroys some of your icons when it goes error :thumb_up:

It may only happened on certain plugins or emulators. :rolleyes:

[305soldier]

okay folks back with yet another problem

in ff9 the animated movie sorta freezes and the the sound won't go away when i close. it freezes in the same spot every single time. its when all four characters get into the ship in the village of dali and the ship is suppose to go to alexandria castle the animated movie comes up then it freezes. help me cuz i want to play the entire game but i can't play it if it keeps on freezing like this.

[hagbard]

Try ePSXe 1.5.2. There many threads about this, btw

[montpics]

Happened to me as well. Use ePSXe v1.5.2 or PSXeven to solve it. :cool:

[DrAkeNgaRd_KneLL]

try making an image out of it. use then the daemon tools to mount the image. then set the cdrom plugin to that image drive. that should work well. i had that same exact problem of my emu until i made an image out of my discs :happy:

[Zapotech]

The problem lies in an error at the registry level. I've seen this problem before.

Use START --> Run --> and type in "regedit" to edit the registry.

Once REGEDIT is up, use "Edit" --> "Find" to search for "epsxe" and delete all entries it finds.

That should fix the problem.

Also, don't use 1.6.0 or you'll just end up with the same problem all over again.

1.6.0 is not stable at all, I consider it a downgrade from the previous version.

edit/ By the way 305, I am from Miami too.

[montpics]

Still don't think that had something to do with registry though..... :rolleyes:

[DrAkeNgaRd_KneLL]

i've been to that problem. i dont think that the registry has something to do with
it :p

[305soldier]

yeah guys its working perfectly now all i had to do was get epsxe 1.5.2 so no it didn't have anything to do with the registry but thanks for the help.

[Zapotech]

Well, to use 1.6.0 after that error you have to delete the registry entries from my experience.

You're welcome 305
