[RESOLVED] PSx Emulator problem?

[steveb]

Hi All, I'm using the newest version of Gameex and am having a problem with PSx emulator. Most of my PS1 games work fine, but for some reason Broken Sword 2 hangs after the copyright screen disappears. This is strange, because if I open it directly through the PSx emulator without Gameex being open, it loads up and works fine.

Does anyone know how to get round this problem please?

HI steveb.

This is probably due to a difference in the way the game is being run from the command line versus what the emulator does behind the scenes to load a game from the GUI. In GameEx are you mounting games to a virtual drive, or running directly through pSX? When you have a moment please consider posting a copy of your (GameEx) emulator config, as it might reveal a bit more about the nature of the issue. The How to Ask For Help thread contains details on how to access that information.

This one may be tricky to track down since the issue happens after the game has already been loaded. Once it hands control over to the emulator, GameEx doesn't actually have much sway over what the emulator does next. Be that as it may, the config will likely shed some light.

Resolved! I was about to post my config when I noticed my command line contained "-r". Out of curiosity, I removed this, and now Broken Sword 2 works perfectly, along with all my other PS1 games. I have no idea what -r means, but if anyone else has a similar problem, try removing it!
