PS Simulator ePSXe Use tutorial

First of all, because most simulator players think that the new version of the simulator is better, here is to say epsxe version of the problem, now the most common epsxe there are two kinds, are ePSXe1.6.0 Simplified Chinese version and ePSXe1.52 Simplified Chinese version, although the ePSXe1.6.0 built-in many plug-ins, free of virtual optical drive, can directly read the ISO, BIN, CCD and other documents, in the system needs and stability of all aspects are better than ePSXe1.52, but often in some games there will be unresolved problems. For example, can not read files, games, such as black screen, if you have been unable to run certain games, remember to try ePSXe1.52 Oh ^ ^

Like "Destiny Legend" "The Wheel of the super time" and so on, the game will use ePSXe1.52.

Although ePSXe1.6.0 can directly read the ISO, BIN, CCD and other documents, but there are a lot of mirror image on the web ePSXe not all can be recognized, so it is best to install a virtual optical drive, here recommend Daemon Tools

Since it's an emulator, the most important feature is, of course, instant Archive, and the shortcut keys for ePSXe Instant archive are as follows:

F1: Instant Archive F2: Select the location of the archive, a total of 5 archive bits F3: Read files

Press ESC in the game will return to the main interface, when the game is not over, press the Run menu "continue" to continue the game. Press "reset" to restart the game, exit is to turn off the simulator, here is a point to note that, if the game in the operation of the key alt+f4, although the words can immediately exit the simulator, but the system will still have epsxe process, the correct exit method is to press Esc key back to the main interface, and then click File → exit.

If you need to change the disk in the game, press the ESC key back to the main screen, click on the file → replace the disc after the choice of file type can be

Configuration Wizard

First run the ePSXe Click Configuration Wizard.

Click Settings

The second step is to select the BIOS, where SCPH 1001 is selected

The third step selects the video plug-in, clicks the setting

Here is a point, because everyone's graphics card is not the same, so the choice of video plug-ins to know their own computer in the end what kind of plug-ins to achieve the best display effect, I will introduce the following.

If the 3dfx Voodoo series of graphics cards on the selection of Lewpy ' s Glide plugin; ATI Radeon words choose Pete ' s D3D plugin; ATI Rage 128/expert Select Pete ' s D3D plugin; if the NVidia GeForce series's graphics card chooses Pete's OpenGL plugin;nvidia TNT series Selection Pete's OpenGL plugin; Matrox g200/g400 Select Pete ' s D3D (DirectX 6) plugin; Of course, if your home computer is still using GeForce 4 MX440 before the model or RadeonX1600 after the video card with P.E.OP.S. Software Driver 1.17 Bar.

(P.E.OP.S is the software simulation plug-in behind the Pete ' s is a hardware simulation plug-in other kinds of plug-ins can refer to the above plug-in settings)

If you want to play it smooth, then set it.

As for why to set this, I will make a detailed explanation below

This is the game screen of the Snow Hawk with Pete ' s DX6 D3D plugin 1.76.

Computer configured for Dell XPS M1210, video card: NVidia GeForce go 7400

This is what I use P.E.OP.S. Software-driven 1.17 game screen

Graphics card for Nvidia GeForce 4 MX440

A contrast on the clear, so it is best to confirm their own video card type and then select the video plugin (plus, if you like the effect of the TV, check the double linear filter-nvidia correction bar)

Set OpenGL renderer

Choose your video card generally don't bother he will choose the main display device

resolution and color

Choose the resolution you want and color depth

Two modes for full screen and window you can choose the full screen or the window mode according to your hobby. Alternatively, you can press Alt+enter to switch during the game.

Select the good mode and then set the resolution and color depth you need usually choose 800x600 resolution, 32-bit color depth, of course, you can also according to their own needs to change the corresponding resolution and color depth

Frame rate: Because the performance of the computer is much better than that of PS, the speed of the simulation is much faster than the normal speed of Ps. At this point the need to limit the frame rate is usually to use the frame number limit and frame number limit on the same time frame limit to fill 60 or 70, too fast or too slow for the game is not too good 60 is able to make the game run smoothly a better parameter, other options can be set according to their own computer.

Next is the hardware simulation: NV's graphics card Please select the OpenGL plug-in ATI graphics card best Choice D3D Plugin

We play the simulator is the most focus on the game screen, if you want to own the game screen has a qualitative leap to look down, the picture is not too high requirements of the words to skip it ~

To epsxe the picture has the quality of Ascension first computer graphics must be NVIDIA GeForce 6 series, display the words of the plugin select OpenGL, the following is the method:

Texture

Texture quality: Affect the speed of one of the key, low configuration selection r4g4b4a4, the screen is much worse than the R5G5B5A1, but fast, medium configuration Select R5G5B5A1, the computer is very good to choose R8G8B8A8

Texture filtering: Different games will often change this to achieve satisfactory results, the game can press the DELETE key to pull out the menu, with Home,end,page up,page down to adjust to achieve the best results

High resolution Texture: general selection of 0 can be a good video card optional 1 or 2

Use video memory size: Select Automatic

Color depth: The computer is not very good advice to choose 16bit

Frame rate

Use frame limit: Play Demon City feel like it's going to be a quick call.

Limit the number of frames to: The above tick is set to 60 here.

Use the frame to jump frames: The computer is really bad, just click on it.

Compatibility

1. Direct Write screen: general choice of 2 or 3 can be

2. Texture frame Number Caching: General selection of 1 good graphics card can be considered to choose 3 or 4

3. Frame Cache Access: General selection of 0 good graphics card according to their own needs to choose other options, no special circumstances please put on the alpha multi-channel hook, other miscellaneous general Shanping slide Show image can be

To ensure good compatibility, these three items can be configured like this ("texture buffering" can be changed appropriately)

Other

Color jitter: If the previous selection is 16bit color deep words on the hook, 32bit do not have to tick

Special Game correction: Title, only for special games, the general game on the Forget

Picture contrast (game: "Goddess sideways like")

Pete ' s DX6 D3D plugin 1.73

P.e.op.s. Software driver 1.17

(as you can see, it's already a lot better than the top)

Pete's OpenGL Drive 1.76

It's almost the ultimate function of PS (catching up with PS2) so setting is very important

Video Plugin

Set Audio

Recommended Eternal SPU Plugin

If you play in Northern Europe, remember to put the first tick, the other is set up like this ~

Set up the optical drive

Plug-in without special requirements to choose ePSXe Built-in ePSXe CDR ASPI core, good compatibility

Set handle

Can be set according to personal preferences, attached to my handle settings

As for memory card settings, there is nothing to say, find a place to put on the line, general select the default path
