Help with Xenogears.

[Xenteko]

Hey, If someone could tell me the best settings for running Xenogears NTSC on ePSXe I would be very grateful.

So far I have managed to get the game running but there seems to be no sound on the opening cut-scene.

I am using;

AMD Althon64 3400+
2x512mb DDR 400 corsair
ATI Sapphire X1650pro.

Could anyone please give me exact info regarding the best options and plugins to use to get the game running ?

Hey! Same problem I have! Good luck, man. No one seems to have an answer or give a whack. I've tried all kinds of sound card adjustments, updates, and emulator configs, but I have no idea. Maybe it comes down to the processor? Nah.

I was wondering if maybe I ran the game from a disc instead of the ISO. Since there are so many anime FMV's in this game I'd really like to get it working.

I'm currently using 'P.E.Op.S. Soft Driver 1.17' as the video plug-in since all the others seem to mess up the in game cut-scenes.

[edit] I fixed it!

You need to tick the box in sound config which says "Enable XA sound (Select to enable XA sound in MDEC)".

I am using eternal SPU Plugin 1.50 on default settings.

Are you serious? That's it? Son of a... thanks. I'll try it out.

I ticked the enable XA sound option, but nothing happened, still no sound in the opening...

What plugins did you use? (especially SPU plugin)

For mine, I use Eternal SPU plugin.

Wow, many people have trouble with ePSXe. The xebra doesn't have any problems.

xebra does have problem, I don't know how about you.. the game seems playing a little bit slow, I don't know how to fix it.... d u know rockman?

btw, @montpics...
I use eternal SPU plugin too, and I the opening sound won't out... how about u? have u tested/played xenogears with it? what image/cd format u use? u know the opening right? when the word xenogears appear..

[montpics]

Played and finished it with either CDs or dumped as an ISO image from them without any problems of it. Opening when the Xenogears appear? Sorry, as I can't recalled much of it.

How about ingame? Do you find any music when you start to control Fei?

Unless yours is a ripped one. Try to check the CD's capacity whether it is more than 600MB .
