I have such a problem. I have WipEout3, but I can't play it. When I run the game then vipeoclip and logos work fine, but game stop in loading screen. I have ePSXe 1.52 (plugins: Pete's OpenGL Driver 1.60, Iori's DirectSound Driver 1.4, bios\SCPH7502.BIN, TSG MSCDEX Driver 1.2). What should I do?

Wipeout3 has copy protection that stops it playing in epsxe so you must either use the subchannel read options in the cdr plugin or get the ppf copy protection patch and patch it.
See the epsxe readme for how to use these options.

as I said read the help in epsxe for how to use ppf's..

Starting with ePSXe v1.5.0, ePSXe comes with an option to apply PPF patches to your game on the fly, as already seen in Pete's great CD plugin. NGEmu made a collection of important PPF files for you to download, but searching the web you should find plenty more. Using them is a bit more difficult, but easy once you got the system, and understandable for everyone who follows the step-by-step instructions below :

1. Download (and possibly unzip) the PFF patch EXACTLY for the game you'd like to patch. That means that you won't be able to use a PPF patch for FF9 german with your italian version ! Also keep in mind that some games (like Gran Turismo) have two versions.

2. Copy the file into the /patches sub-directory in your ePSXe directory

3. Look on the CD you want to use ... you'll find a file whose name is like SLES*,SCES* or SLUS*. Copy that name and rename the PPF file from your /patches directory to exactly the same name (also in uppercase !).

4. You're done, the next time you run that game ePSXe will add the patch on the fly !

skypa your reply is too violent, i don't appreciate it....
quartic, you can use pete cdr plugin 1.10 and enable use ppf patch option, which is the simpliest way to use a patch.

hi quartic,

i got the same problem. so i got the patch, extracted into the pach-dir and run epsxe which auto-search-for-patch-option. but nothing happened: the screen said paradox and x for pal o for ntsc. i pressed x and nothing happened!
do i have the wrong patch?

Excuse me, but...

What is PPL written out and where can I find some?
Wipeout 1, Wipeout 2097 (or XL for US) and Wipeout 3 SE are working fine with ePSXe, but I can't get Wipeout 3 to run a race.

Does this really happening because of a missing patch?
