Krakerman Posted June 5, 2010 Author Share Posted June 5, 2010 Well I have a i7 processor, ATI 5850, and 16 gb Ram memory so I would think that is quite fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funtasticguy Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 The old loader with the older version of pcsx2 used to work fine for me. For some reason, this loader does not work with the new version of pcsx2. I tried different settings and both loaders and all I get is a blank screen but nothing happens. I can see that the loader does load up in Windows' memory but, again, it does nothing. Can someone post or upload their pcsx2.ini settings so that I could figure out what's going wrong and fix my pcsx2.ini settings.Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T. Goodchild Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 I get a black unresponsive mouse screen so I ctrl alt delete into task manager and minimize hshide and I must get stuck at the choose iso step. This happens on both loaders alt and regular. I'm using Pcsx2_Loader.exe "[rompath]\[romfile]" as the command. I'm on xp sp3 mce 2005. My pcsx2 cd plugin is the Linuz iso one. I was previously using the old loader with the older revisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I watch the pcsx2 window while the loader runs I can see the Rom folder name being pasted into the Choose Iso command line but then nothing. Should the Rom Name also be pasted? If you could upload the script Brian I could have a look myself, If you don't mind that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jollywest Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Thanks Brian. The script works fine as is. All I did was amend the - Advanced Config - field in GameEx Advanced Configuration to blank. However even though I can hear PCSX2 running, focus returns to GameEx with the following screen:Anyway to keep focus on PCSX2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jollywest Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Jollywest, how do you have your PCSX2 setup in the Advance Config? How did you get it run in GameEx? I have attached the Adv Config .ini I use for PCSX2. I can't remember which version of Brian's Loader from the top of the page I used so I've attached this also.I still have the same issue when I can hear PCSX2 running a game in the background but focus returns to GameEx. It may work for you though, but if not I select Resume Game and then ALT + ENTER for fullscreen.pcsx2.rar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirjmann Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 This program didn't work for me at first. I was trying to find a command line loader for pcsx2 0.9.7 (r3119) so I could use it with Maximus Arcade. I was testing it with the "Run" dialog within windows vista (x64). I kept getting a black screen and a few "windows error dings" using the proper commands. After reading your last code snippet I noticed that you indicate the file as "pcsx2-r3113.exe" but the file I have downloaded from the pcsx2 website is named simply "pcsx2.exe".Renaming the file in my pcsx2 directory from pcsx2.exe to pcsx2-r3113.exe fixed the issue and now the loader works from a run command or Maximus Arcade (or probably any front end loader for that matter"...Thanks a lot for this, I've been searching everywhere for a solution and I'm too impatient to wait for the next release of pcsx2 with command line support. Much appreciated! Side note: full screen does not work for me, with either version. I understand that this was intended for GameEx and as such I'll live with it. The new pcsx2 is supposed to have fullscreen boot fixed. Also, esc works perfectly, exiting the program and returning me to my front end. I love it!

Actually, I wrote it to be CLI friendly for any FE. I just happen to frequent these boards rather than some other FE's. We have quite a talented bunch of regulars here.If you look at this part of the code.Gui DestroySend, {ALTDOWN}{ENTER}Sleep 100You can see I am sending ALT+ENTER whcih is suppposed to make it full screen.Perhaps adding a sleep 1000 before will make it work.. EG maybe it's sending the keystrokes before the emu loads.Gui DestroySleep 1000Send, {ALTDOWN}{ENTER}Sleep 100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palindrom Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 is it possible to use the [virtualdrive] option with this loader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Hoffman Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 is it possible to use the [virtualdrive] option with this loader?No, not at this moment. There are a few reasons why. First, the emulator nativly supports reading from image files. eg. ISO,BIN, ETC... So needing to mount it first is an un-needed step.next, the [virtualdrive] is limited to what the included virtualdrive software supports, which I believe is limited to ISO (I could be wrong).It may be a good option if all your images are in a compatable format.Id wait till the next version, I believe it may support CLI out of the box.Sorry mate.

palindrom Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Well, all my Cd image are in MDX format (compressed image to save space) it work well for the PS1 emulator with the Virtualdrive command (the virtualdrive command only mount the image and send the ''d:'' path to the emulator, so any format that daemon tools can mount is supported.i wish this command would be supported in the pcsx2 loader in the future.

Draco1962 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I would check the ngemu fourm first as this the most recent is in a series of Beta releases and there have been noted some speedups in some areas but slow downs on others, especially with older graphics adapters. Might want to hold back on adding it until official and stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celly Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 What kind of issues are you having?Runs and plays fine outside of GameEx, used the command Jollywest suggested - pcsx2-r3878.exe --fullscreen --nogui "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"And no dice.

Try running in debug mode so that the command window shows and it will show an error of some sort that will be useful. Then post the results please.

celly Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Yeah, I got it. Geez. The parameters where backwards. Jollywest's cmd line of pcsx2-r3878.exe --fullscreen --nogui "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" didn't work but should have. I changed it to pcsx2-r3878.exe --nogui --fullscreen "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" making the nogui parameter first made it work. Freq, an easy fix huh? Ha! Thanks.

It's always an easy fix but just need to utilize the tools that are there. Tom makes GameEx easy to troubleshoot for users but those tools are rarely used. I usually always test an emulator from the command-line so I can see the output before I attempt to get it working in GameEx. I always hear the classic, "But it works outside of GameEx"! LOL. Which isn't true cuz if worked out of GameEx then would work in it as well. Just need to always test from command-line or make use of the debug feature if problems arise. Am glad you got it working. Yay. Have fun! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
