You have to put those plugin files into the plugin folder, and you have to get the SCPH1001.BIN bios from somewhere, as it is not included with any emulator.

You probably don't have a PS1 BIOS file. There lies the problem.

BTW why is that still illegal to share? It's been like half a decade now... I don't suppose Sony's still profiting from it?

that means

1. you shouldnt have the bios, else itll be illegal
2. you dont have a playstation? then using the emulator is illegal
3. You have the game, but no console? either you have much faith in using the emulator illegally, or you downloaded that too.

owning a bios without the console will always be illegal, a decade is nothing for a copyright license, try 40-50 years after the copyright owner dies, then you might stand half a chance.

yeah, ref is a coolass, but it's not like he's giving us the First Testament of the Emulation Bible or anything

and anyway, anyone who can't find the PSX BIOS on the internet is pretty stupid. anyone who can't find the PSX BIOS and knows the file name is officially Retarded At The Internet (RATI).

by the way, a kind emuforums member sent me a Pro Action Replay, i just need to get around to making a dumping tutorial out of it. it will be here.........eventually
