Hello people, I've recently discovered how to emulate ISO files and I've been able to get only two games working Tekken 3 and Crash Bandicoot 3:Warped. I've have also downloaded Crash Team Racing, Crash Bandicoot 2 and Crash Bandicoot 1 but none of them work, I don't really understand they don't appear to be corrupt and are a decent size.

Here is the stats of the ISO files that I cannot get working can some please tell me if something is wrong with them:

Crash Team Racing:

Size- 216 MB (226,611,166 bytes)

Crash Bandicoot 2:

Size- 220 MB (231,694,625 bytes)

Crash Bandicoot 1:

Size- 484 MB (508,556,288 bytes)

Is this right, what is irregular about them do you think, Crash 3 works fine and it's 271 MB (285,130,608 bytes) and Tekken's only 43.0 MB (45,101,952 bytes) and that works.

Please help someone! :):(

As for your CTR problem this may help Click Here (http://forums.emulator-zone.com/showthread.php?t=4938&highlight=Patches) As for the other info you require we will need more to go on that what you have given to us...... The size of your files looks really small except Your Crash Bandicoot 1 looks like a decent size though and also please post your Configurations (plugins) that you are using and what are the File extentions are they .ISO .BIN .IMG or what and we will be able to help.

Use Petes OpenGL.... You cant play ISO files directly off your ePSXe they have to be in .BIN or .IMG format you will need get something like ISO Buster or Magic ISO to extract the RAW Data from them. Or alternatly you could download Alcohol 120% or Daemon tools and mount to ISO file to a virtual drive and play the game by selecting

File>>Run CDROM

Note to self :
Tekken 3 is a game that contained CDDA data (CD music) and I still questioning myself over that ISO you obtained (perhaps a ripped version of Tekken 3). :cool:
