FF7 Couple of Questions

kurtsky · August 8th, 2006, 15:19

I read the FAQ, but still have some questions

1) When using ePSXe 1.60 with the ff plugins:

Video : Peops Soft Driver 1.17
Window 640 x 480

Stretching 1:1
Dithering No
FPS Limit
Auto Detect FPS
Scanline Disabled
Use system memory
Activate Special Game Fixes

Sound
Eternal SPU Plugin 1.10
Enable Sound
Enable CDDA
Enable XA

FF7 Wont load and I get an error, weird for a soft plugin
I attached an image of it

2.) When using Petes OpenGL2 Drivers,Using the Best Config for FF7 in the FAQ, the game wont load I just get a black screen and it stays there..

3.) When using the normal OGL drivers with the ff settings
window 640 480
textture quality - dont care
Texture fultering 3
Hi Res 0
Gfx Vram autodetect
FPS Limit FPs autodetect

Compatibility
0 in everything
Alpha multipass
Mask Bit
Advanced blending

Misc
Special Game fixes

The game loads but I dont see the screen with the Sony LLC , I just go straight to the squaresoft logo..
And it take long about 10 seconds ..
Also, the opening FMV is rather slow and choppy too..

Using epSXE 1.52 it runs flawlessly although sound is a bit choppy like its reading..

The sony logo is a buildt-in feature of the playstation itself, and since epsxe isn't really a playstation you don't have to be tormented by that logo.

In pete's OpenGL enable "unfiltered framebuffer updates"
as for sound use "Eternal SPU plugin 1.41 and enable "CDDA sound" and "XA sound" and in the configure enable "update before accessing register".

Il try that thanks alot

Edit:
the settings you gave worked on OGL
But on Peops Software it just crashes ePSXe both on FF7, & FF8

Although FF8 is a real hard game to start sometimes.
Thanks again!

If you really like that Sony LCC logo, try activating a -slowboot switch to it.
