First download some psx emulator.
then make an ISO of the cd (it is better to do this than playing the game from cd) with the Alcohol 120%.
Configure GPU,SPU, and cd plugins + BIOS,Memorycards and controler.
When you are done run the ISO of the game.

It is software for making images of your Cd-s.
You can download it here (http://www.alcohol-software.com/).
To make an iso insert the psx game into your Cd-Rom drive and go to the image making wizard and make the ISO with the playstation profile + .ccd option.

Ok thanks alot. I am making an iso image with that Alcohol program right now. When it is done, how do I open it in the psx emulator. Also, should the disc just randomly stop spinning in the middle of the process?

To load the game you can use the "Mooby2 cd disk image driver" cd plugin and select to "Run Cd" in the emulator (i suggest that you use ePSXe because he is the best).
2. If the process finishes without the errors everything is fine (even the spindowns).

When I tried playing it on epsxe it said

missing texture render extension

or something like that

How do I fix this?

Use the other GPU plugin.
I assume that you have OpenGL2 plugin, well use OpenGL 1.76 instead.

OK, you will find all of what you need at limewire.com download their software and you will have more then enough games, music, videos and more. This includes plugins and such for emulators. Now since this topic is about just that, this proves most usefull. thank you

I just leave this to the mods/admins.

For pip2k, I am assuming you are using the CyberPad plugin. I highly recommand you guys play together at the same computer. You wouldn't be happy with the results of latancy.

i strongly recommend against this. first of all, these might not be up to date, secondly, they could be virused. third, it's illegal, because some of them come with a BIOS.

Why would you use limewire?
Use Kazza instead, and downloading games, bios and all that other crap is illegal.
I was just searching in Limewire the other day, and I found so much bios's and all that crap, I just said to my self "Why the hell would they bother putting in illegal stuff???"
I closed limewire and I never used it again.:innocent:

darkness angel, please stop being a douche.

kazaa (keep in mind that's how it's spelled) is a piece of crap. not to mention it has just as much illegal stuff as Limewire. so i don't get how you're showing how "good" of a person you are by saying "limewire has illegal stuff so i use kazaa!" which has just as much illegal stuff.

I just said to my self "Why the hell would they bother putting in illegal stuff???"

you do know that it's PEER TO PEER sharing. so people just share the files they have. "they" (implying some higher power, like the owners of the program?) do not put any files in the network. the files on the network are what people share. there are the same files on both programs, and yes, both are illegal.

I don't use Kazaa and I never will.
P2P sharing, wow never thought of that.
I was gonna share my stuff with my family on the LAN.
Nevermind:rolleyes:

Uhm,
Assuming this (first) post is placed in the correct forum,
all you'd need to do is pop the cd in the drive,
start pSX emulator,
go to the File menu, select "Insert CD drive" and choose your drive,
and then go to the menu again and press "reset".

you sir, are a douchebag. i will explain, using numbered points.

1. you dont use kazaa, and never will. then why did you tell him to use Kazaa? why endorse something you dont use? and that you know is illegal? oh, that's also against the board rules and is a nice way to get yourself a ban.
2. "P2P sharing, wow never thought of that." either you are being sarcastic for an unknown reason (what point are you trying to prove?) or you are a complete idiot. or both. oh wait, your thing about "why would they put in illegal files" proves the latter point.
3. you were going to share files with your family on LAN? using Limewire? hmm, sharing files on LAN with a crappy, slow program that runs off Java (crappy, slow, unstable, buggy, takes up a bunch of RAM). or you could use windows and just share the folders, and have your own network that doesnt take up any resources, runs faster, and is easier to use. hmm...

1.I'm not encouring him to use Kazaa.
2.I'm not an idiot, I just didn't know P2P sharing.
3.Not limewire, through Windows sharing.
And this is getting :offtopic:, let's stop;)
