Renaming to "renderer.znc" should work

I never knew this was possible. Ah well, never too old to learn! Thanks for the valuable tip, hagbard

Actually it should be possible with Peops soft GPU plugin and OGL2, and after a little deeper testing I found only those PSX GPU plugin works with Zinc. The missundertood comes when using certain frontends like ZincFE, the "renderer.znc" is replaced by "ogl_renderer.znc" or "d3d_renderer.znc, so it looks the D3D/OGL PSX GPU plugin it's working while it isn't.

In summary I was wrong, only Peops soft PSX GPU and Pete's OGL2 might work with Zinc, but not Pete's D3D/OGL. Sorry for the inconvenience

Edit: Latest Pete's OGL2 also supports Zinc!

In other words, you should rename them to 'ogl_render.znc' if that plugin is OGL while 'd3d_renderer.znc' for D3D plugin.

But make sure those are Zinc plugins, not PSX GPU

I already used the zinc from this site. i renamed it too, but no luck!
there must be a reason for this. pete in his site wrote that this plugin is also for zinc..

You're right, Pete's OpenGL2 PSX GPU plugin works with Zinc here once renamed to "renderer.znc". You need to config it first on a PSX (PSEmuPro specs) plugin based like ePSXe, PSXeven or SSSPSX, to make sure it might run on your system.
