I need help! My games don't work! ;_;

glory · April 8th, 2005

I have a LOT of problems with psx emulation!
Can you help solve them?

1) Final fantasy 9 hangs in the FMV when the party gets out of dali via airship!
2) Chrono cross hangs when I try to use magic in battles!
3) I cant see battle swirls and the like in most games I play
4) some of the games games run WAY too fast, most game kinda "hick" (suddenly speed up)!
5) Xenogears worked (semi-)fine for quite a while but then crushed in kislev (when fei was just brought there) ;_;
6) I can't hear voices in FMVs...

Please?

1. Sounds like you're using ePSXe 1.6.0. Make sure you use 1.5.2 with FF9.

2. Make sure the odd/even bit hack game fix is enabled and that you're using the -noauto switch with an ePSXe shortcut (switch not needed with 1.5.2).

3. Post your graphics plugin settings, you probably have Pete's OpenGL/D3D plugin set with framebuffer texture at 1 and framebuffer access at 0.

4. Do you have the graphics plugin's framelimiter set to Auto and have it enabled?

5. Is that the dream sequence? If so, press F7 when it starts then press it again when it ends.

6. Make sure the top three boxes in the main sound configuration window are checked.
