Help setting up Sony Playstation

[speedie69]

Hi folks,

Can anyone help a newbie with setting up gameex for psx. A complete walkthrough would be good if anyone ca spare the time. I have a complete USA hyperspin formatted rom set individually zipped. Thats my first question, do i need to unzip the individual roms? Second question is which emulator? Thirdly do i need a plugin to load the disc images? Also what command lines do i need?. In all honesty this is where ive got confused, i have all the earlier systems working great (mame,nes,snes,mastersystem,megadrive,n64 and using gamebase zx spectrum, ST, Amiga, Atari 800). But as soon as we get to disc based systems Saturn,Dreamcast,psx i am stuck and cant for the life of me get them working in gameex.

Thanks in advance.

Hello , here are the basics infos i can provide from my setup :

1 the emu I use is espxe ; psx 1.13 is great but some games don't boot at all.

2 your isos can stay zipped , just enable Zip/7-Zip/GoodMerge/RAR in the advanced emulator config. Scan subfolder is also activated.

3 You don't need any plugin, here is my command line config for epsxe : ePSXe.exe -nogui -loadiso "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"

4 and my rom filter *.ccd;*.cue;*.iso;

Thanks that worked great . I didn't know about the advanced emulator options, my roms in Chankast and ssf are also showing now, although still not working but I'm a step closer.

Hi - there's loads of different ways to use psx zipped files.

I knocked something together to deal with any zip issues (e.g. ecm'd files) and also to stop having to unzip each time. Also deals with per-game settings. It's also already setup for psx emus (asside from xebra which I never got round to). I'd reccomend a combo of epsxe and psx-r (I use the latter mainly).

Take a look here if you think it may be of use:

There's a video on there which shows you how it works with psx.
