Pcsx and pete's gpu plugins

**Prafull** · November 26th, 2001

So pcsx says it supports all pete's and lewpy's gpu plugins.Out of these only two are important for me.Pete's soft and Pete's d3d (coz they are supported by my computer).
Pete's soft plugin works fine with pcsx.I was just wondering whether pete's d3d plugins work in the games or not?
It shows all the menus perfectly but as soon as the game starts it gives black screens only but the 2d stuff like health indicator or direction arrow is visible and game seems to be running.
So is it my computer or you guys face the same problem?
I have tried many games and it doesnt seem to be working in any game.

*Note* Dont ask me to use epsxe for playing games,coz its just a query about new upcoming emulator nothing to do with how good a game runs with epsxe.

It's someone from this really neat fanmade (afaik) movie out on the web. It's kind of like DBZ meets NGE.

Haha, the first time I read that I read it as DragonballZ meets NGEmu! Then I read it properly as Neon Genesis Evangelion which I thought was awesome, while I still think DBZ sucks. But that's off topic so I'll go away now.

So have you retested it ?

i tried some other games and almost all of them seem to have some sort of problem with pete's d3d plugin.

I thought newer version will solve the problem but after testing pcsx 1.0 the problem still exists.

**Pete Bernert** · January 6th, 2002

I've checked the D3D plugins with pcsx 1.0, too, and you are right:
something strange is going on (I did quick check with epsxe, fpse and
psemu pro, and all worked fine). Even stranger: the ogl plugin seems
to work in pcsx. No idea yet what is causing the D3D issue. Maybe
a wrong init or a strange window style or maybe pcsx is doing some
weird multi-threating (but usually d3d is very forgiving with threads).

Well, if I have some time the next days I'll take a closer look

Hi pete,
I dont know whether its your new gpu version i.e. 1.58 or new pcsx version i.e 1.1 but that problem looks to be solved now.

Thanks anyway.
