XENOGEARS PROBLEM

[LORD-KINKY]

Ok, here's my problem. In some scenes the graphics are, well, "missing". The screen goes black and I see occasional red flashes or something... The strange part is, that the in-game text windows look normal. So, I can read what's happening, but I can't see it.... Strange.

I'm using ePSXe 1.6.0 and Pete's OpenGL2 Driver 2.8. I tried some other plugins but nothing helped. Black screen remains....

All other games work fine.
Oh, and my video card is GeForce 6600GT 256Mb.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Try This go to config gpu

petes opengl 2.8 under compatibility

Off-Screen Drawing - 1 ok for most games
Framebuffer effects - 3 Full Emulates
Framebuffer Uploads - 2 Full Uploads

if the does not work try peopsoft 1.17

Thanks, but that didn't help. I even tried that black screen game fixes, still nothing. Maybe I should try some other emu? PSXeven maybe? If so, how do I "convert" my ePSXe memory card to PSXeven? So I could just load my game and see what happens. Maybe the game is faulty.

Set resolution to 800 x 600

If you have a powerful graphic card.... 500 MB+
Set Framebuffer textures to 2 and set Framebuffer access to 3.

If you have a decent graphic card (256 MB) and a relative fast CPU (Pentium 4 - 3.0 Ghz+)....
Having FSAA on, set Framebuffer textures to 0, set Framebuffer access to 4.

If not working then use PSXeven

Psxeven supports both epsxe and psxeven cards.

Psxeven_v.019 go to Memory Card>Browse and select your Memory card.

I'd like to try that, but could you please tell me what plugin are you reffering to? Thanks.

Pete's OpenGL2 GPU-Plugin

Nothing helped, not even PSXeven....

I'll try to get another copy of the game, I hope it'll work...

Hope this helps

Thanks for the effort man, but sadly it didn't help.... But still, thanks for the effort!

Could the problem really be my nVidia video card? Because all other games work fine...
