Installing PS Simulator ePSXe under 64-bit Linux

Long wanted to play PS game on the love machine, especially the 19,451 generations of Cai Jing and the very classic 2002 version of Live football. Under the Ubuntu64, you can run the Windows version of ePSXe in a wine simulation, but always feel worse? not native Ah! Search the Internet, ePSXe also has a Linux version, from the official online ePSXe official website (www.epsxe.com/) downloaded the Linux Universal bin file, so the toss began.

This green version of the ePSXe a lot of things, such as no BIOS and various plug-ins, but also the 64-bit Linux is missing 32-bit libraries, if the 32-bit Linux can be run directly. and the previous command to install the 32-bit library:

sudo apt-get install Ia32-libs

It can't be used on a higher version of Ubuntu. One option is to install the corresponding 32 version:

sudo apt-get install xxx:i386

But one library is more, and there will be a lot of unresolved dependencies, like the thread of the same slowly cobwebs, but also quite uncomfortable. So I chose a silly but prudent way: To download the corresponding file from a 32-bit Linux virtual machine without any files.


My idea is to put all the required 32-bit libraries in the program's own directory, avoid disturbing the/lib or/usr/lib folder, and then specify this library directory when executing the program:

ld_library_path=/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/:~/Download/ Epsxe/lib./epsxe

After a "painful" mechanical process, as *.so.* files become more numerous, such as:



The ePSXe file can finally be executed, although there are many errors:

* Running ePSXe emulator version 1.9.4. gtk-message:failed to load module ' Overlay-scrollbar ' gtk-message:failed to load module ' unity-gtk-module ' (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): Gtk-warning * *: Unable to find theme engine in module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find theme engine in module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: "Xfce", (epsxe:8514): gtk-warning * *: The theme engine could not be found in the module path: "Xfce",

In fact, in the middle also with Apt-get install xxx:i386 installation of some 32-bit package, especially the LIBGTK series of packages. Some GTK Murrine graphics engines are also installed: Gtk2-engines-murrine_ 0.98.2-0ubuntu2_i386.deb, thank goodness, finally pop up the program window Oh!


Then there is a lot of work to do, find plug-ins is a troublesome thing, a lot of Web search Web site can not open, repeated search, in the following 2 places to find the east:

And

Http://tieba.baidu.com/p/2051609100ffffff

Follow the requirements to place the files in the graphics package and the sound pack in the CFG and plugins folders, and then set them in the corresponding window:



To set the place is still more, but the key is resolution, full screen, limit frame several places, all other ignored, played under Windows ePSXe Children's shoes are known, and WINDOWX under the same set of birds.

The following is the sound settings are similar, but third-party plug-ins P.e.0p.s OSS audio driver run without sound, with their own background music and sound effects have, but we2002 's voice is a pop, temporarily only mute play.


After the final selection of the BIOS, you can actually run the game to see the effect bird:




Finally summed up, after all, is the Linux native program running speed to think fast in my set x61, very smooth, unfortunately there is no sound and no handle, but wait for a next toss it.

Originally intended to install PS simulator in my MBA PCSX Reloaded, helpless full screen after the ugly black side always can not really realize the widescreen, temporarily give up the birds. Windows system always crashes + hangs, but don't say the simulator is still quite a lot ah, hehe.
