General ePSXe Setup and Configuration

[retroguiden]

Please can you answer my question?
why my burutter.dll. didn't not found when i open my epsxe?

Because the file is missing. Try to do a search on Google for the filename and download it. Then save the file to the ePSXe folder.

Okay, here is a video telling you exactly how to get epsxe setup to play games. It even tells you where to find the required system bios. This should help out a lot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAVy2mHkavI

Hey I have a problem. I load everything do all the bin stuff and everything. When i load my game none of my keyboard buttons work. Anyone know how to configure it?

Before you load a game open Config from the toolbar, select Gamepad and then port 1. You can define your controls in there.

i'm trying to use controller now, but i couldn't use it in game..any help?do i need another driver or something?

thx for the helps

Does the pad map to the controls ok in the Pad config utility?. You need to click on each button description displayed on screen, then push the button or direction on your pad that you want to use for that function. You should see the text change to identify the button press you've just made.

If you have successfully mapped your controller in the ePSXe pad config utility then also consider that ePSXe allows you to select the type of emulated controller (digital pad, dual shock etc) this will be the drop down menu in the top right corner of the pad utility screen.
I have found that ePSXe will expect different types of controller dependent on the game.

For example, I use a Dual Shock 2 with ePSXe and with most games its fine but some older games like Legacy of Kain - Blood Omen, won't work with it, however if I go back into controller config and set the controller as a PS1 Digital Pad (the one without analogue sticks) it works perfectly even though I am still using the same controller, so you need to use the pad config utility to tell ePSXe what type of Playstation controller you want it to emulate.

Hope that makes sense. If you're still stuck or not sure what I mean then post again.

Well, in what format are these games? Isos? Go back to the first post on the first page in this thread. Do all the configuration steps, and when the emulator is fully configured check the second part of step 9 in that post. That gives you somewhere to begin to figure it out. if you get stuck after that post again and include as much info on the problem as possible.
