ok, i asked this already before, but never got a response. FF7 runs pretty good, but the sounds are not right (they have this some sort of high pitched sound). Is this normal?
i just noticed that blood omen is on the list but it says the status bar on the right is corrupted, i have cdda turned on and old frameskip and its fine for me no corrupted menu when i play it.
Xenogears - works just fine in BIOS mode, I played it from beginning to end with just the default graphic fixes on. You have it listed as not working.
Gex-Works perfect
Silhouette Mirage-Works perfect aside from this GOD AWFUL blaring electronic ENNNNNNGGGGGGGG noise that constantly tries to make your brain explode.
By the way, im sure some people have noticed, in some games, there are menus that are just blurred so you cant read them. Does someone know how to get rid of that cuz, if there isnt a way, im not sure how ANYONE played through Chrono Cross. It totally makes it impossible to allocate your elements.
I think silhouette mirage is, in fact a bad image and enabling the "disable cdda" feature did fix Chrono Cross (even if i CANT save...what a ripoff...dont even understand why that happens...). Now i have the screen smearing problem with Breath of Fire 4 even tho, unlike in Chrono Cross, it doesnt affect gameplay at all, just the title screen.
Oh and ill add a lil new info for the list
VAGRANT STORY(on whatever version of psxbox is the newest) - Works damn near perfect. Very SLIGHT sound glitch where foots steps sound like this ... "BOING" except a strangely electronic boing. Great speed. VERY playable.
When I play Vagrant Story I cant get further than after the first fight against the knights in the wine cellar cuz when I go to the next area the game freezes anyone know how to fix?
Ok, Skull Monkeys seems flawless, Dark Forces now works propper so long as you use the new fix for it, and Pitfall 3D seems to work great too! All 3 use standard BIOS.
Also I've noticed that if you do not use the Emlator's save states, avoid going to the options screen during game play, and ONLY use the PSX in game save feature, then you will have a LOT better experience while emulating the PSX.
Castlevania SOTN was giving me hell, till I started treating it like a real sony.
it says that legend of mana runs perfect (which it damn near does), but does anyone have sound problems in which any step that is made on wood is a wierd beep?
im trying to connect to Xport to download the config and i cant connect for some reason im trying to play the game Initial D Special Stage its NTSC but jap version please help

To those having problems with not being able to leave the room with the two knights and the floating cube, it has nothing to do with the copy of the game you downloaded. I downloaded two copies online as well as copied my own original game disc and still had the problem.
Had I seen your problems just about a month ago I could've helped you out with a savefile, but as it stands I can only suggest the following: Download a PSX emulator for your PC and run Vagrant Story on it. Play up to where you're having the problems (enter the next room, a cinematic will play) then return to the previous room and save the game. Then transfer the save game file over to your xbox and you should be able to load it. Don't use savestates, I'm not sure those will work, rather emulate a save onto a memory card, then bring the memory card file over. It worked perfectly for me, and I haven't had any problems since that.
I registered just to help you guys out with that, because Vagrant Story is my favorite PSX game and I feel all should join in the greatness.
Yeah, you're right. Its just a bug in the emu, and everything else works fine once you get past that part (using a pc emu save). One question, can it be finished without any problems? Its a great game, and maybe I'll start continuing my saved file again
QUOTE
could you do that with star ocean 2? or valkyrie profile? or...thousand arms?
uhm, do what? Get the config settings? If yes, ok I'll check them up later. If no, then sorry. Thought you were talking to me
Well, I guess. I don't see why it shoudn't work (though there may be other problems after getting past a freeze.....).
Im gonna try that with Valkyrie profile and Star Ocean 2nd story. Ill get back to you if it works.
Well, i tried it. Both of them SEEM to work but both end up freezing up at different parts. Valkyrie Profile lets you go until the next scene change and for Star Ocean, obviously the problem is with the end of the battle (since thats when it froze up again for me)...man, that sucks...
Why is my information on Jet Moto 2 put on the list as Jet Rider 2? Strange.
Those of you wanting to get past the freeze in the room with the two knights and the floating stone in Vagrant Story and not wanting to have to transfer saves and all that mumbo-jumbo, I have a solution.
Go into CPU fixes and enable CPU Interpreter. Since this slows down emulation quite a bit, I suggest you turn off framelimit unless you enjoy slideshows. With the CPU interpreter, you can move on to the next room without crashing. It's possible that maybe after you find another save point, you can then turn off the CPU interpreter to go back to playing at a somewhat normal speed, but it all depends on what exactly is causing the freezing problem. It's possible that you'll have the exact same problem every few rooms or so, in which case turning off the CPU interpreter won't help anything. Anyone that can get to the next save point after the freeze with the CPU interpreter on, save, then reset the Xbox, restart PCSXBox and this time turn CPU interpreter off and framelimit back on and see if you encounter any other freezing issues in the rooms ahead. Hopefully, it is just a problem with that one room.
You might be wondering why I suggest to you that you restart your Xbox after saving at the save point. Well, there's a problem in PCSXBox where turning on the CPU interpreter and then attempting to exit the game back to PCSXBox's frontend causes the Xbox to hang, at least it does over here.
Anyways, let me know if this works for you and if you encounter the same freezes once you are past the next save point with CPU interpreter off.
Good luck and I hope this makes you all happy.
I'd RATHER see a fix for Valkyrie Profile...ah ha ha, just messin...this is awesome but a Valkyrie Profile fix would rock my socks.
I want to get Star Ocean 2 working pretty badly.
Pepsi-Man (J) - Fully playable. In game music slightly skippy. Default options.
Sailor Moon Super S (J) - Everything works in this game, except for the fighting itself. The game does each character's introduction animation, does the Round 1 animation and never progresses past that leaving the characters in their idle stance. Also, Disable CDDA because once you actually get to the battle, your ears will be killed instantly.
I don't happen to have my info on my options for Wipeout 3, but for those of you with the NTSC version, I'll let you know how to play it.
Wipeout 3 uses some sort of security that requires subchannel reading I believe it's called. Most of the PC PSX emulators allow you to turn that on or off at will, but I don't believe PCSXBox has that emulated. So what happens is that as you start your race and cross the start/finish blue line, the game freezes, and eventually freezes if you attempt to drive backwards. PARADOX (PDX) released a patch to fix this problem back when they made a release for Wipeout 3. You'll have to find and apply their patch, and then the game will be fully playable.
Or you could just get Wipeout 3 Special Edition instead which is a better game overall and doesn't have the same problem.
(Could it be that Star Ocean features similar protection and that's why it freezes at the end of a battle? Haven't found any patches for the game aside from NTSC/PAL selectors though.)

Wing Commander IV (PAL, v13)
Works fine under BIOS mode but crashes using HLE. Switch off all graphics fixes apart from frameskip and switch on FF9 movie fix in CPU fixes. Also once you have watched the opening intro to find out the plot the game will freeze so watch it once, reset and restart and then make sure to skip the intro the next time around before the game freezes. I have not noticed any problems with and subsequent FMVs, only the intro.

Adventures of Lomax PAL, works great in BIOS mode.
Bubble Bobble feat. Rainbow Islands PAL, perfect in BIOS mode.
Alundra PAL, works great in BIOS mode.
As for Final Fantasy VII PAL, I can say that the rest of the game after you end up in jail works fine :)
Played it in ePSXe and continued on in PCSXbox after the jail scene.

Suikoden 1 for PSX.
I'm currently running version 12 of PCSXBOX, and I'm having some serious issues with Suikoden. Every time I go into a major battle (as in, one of the full-scale wars), the game locks up. What can I do/use to fix this?
For Final Fantasy VII Pal: I retested until we exit midgar , I tried with bios scph 7502 and the screen becomes black from time to time (same experience as before) , so I tried bios scph1001 , the game was much slower than usual but still playable (so I turned off framelimit) than the game was faster than usual. I kept it that way.
Final Fantasy IX Pal: This game aint easy to get to work good(the in battle menus are VERY buggy, and the outbattle menus are VERY laggy). From when you begin to when you are on the outworld the only way I could get it to be enjoyable was : Odd/even bit hack ON , Ignore black brightness color : On , Framelimit : on (with the framelimit off the game is too fast , with it on its a little slower but not too bad). With those settings the game up to when you get in the world map was playable, when you get to the world map , zidan is white so is the moogle , and the fights are missing menus(so you dont know what your doing). I tested this with scph7502 , I will try with scph1001 in the world map and post my results.

Sorry for not editing (15 minute edit thing) , Anyways ;
Final Fantasy IX : I got the menus to work in the world map now : You need to set only framelimit on , and unmap the throttle button (by going in options controller config etc...).
Ill have to start a new game to see if those same settings work in the begining(Or if anyone can confirm it works in the begining). If it doesnt work use the settings in the post above this on , it was working PERFECT.
Also zidan is still white on the world map , I cant find a way around this.

Ok , I havent finished ff ix yet , but im hours into it and im confirming that until now it works, you just need to use the same settings as in my other posts.
Porblems ive noticed: When you exit a battle the screen is black for a few seconds(lag) , outbattle menu lags alot (its still usable) , when the ATB is full the infos at the bottom flash , when your walking in the world ; zidane is white , when you exit a town its long to load the outer world. The game itself is a little slower than on the playstation(by not alot).
Up till now the game didnt freeze once , and the movies work perfectly , and its been enjoyable.

Well, it can't use really PSX CD's, so don't bother trying that again. The recommended format is BIN/CUE, though ISO probably should have worked. Make sure you BIOS file is named correctly (SCPH1001.BIN) and that it is not zipped.
Also, are you putting the images on the hard drive or onto a disc? If onto a disc them you need to burn the game as a data disc... so the end result should be that when you browse the disc with your PC you still see the BIN (or ISO) file itself on the disc.

Hey all, I'm in the same mess.
I've tried everything I can think of to play Final Fantasy VII (U) of the hard drive (rom folder). It's an original mdf/mds. I've converted that to ISO and Cue/Bin (named correctly) via UltraIso and the game will not load. I'm using v13 with the scph1001.bin (512KB). I've tried the game as instructed with everything off, except framlimit, and old framskip.I've also remapped throttle to nothing/nothing. I've tried variations of the on/off stuff, including lazy and still , all I get is the loading screen. What am I doing wrong? Can someone please help, as I want to re-live my childhood with this kick ass game.
Surely, there is something I'm doing wrong. Wrong Bios?
Also, is there a t or u data cache file? I'd like to delete it and start fresh.
Lastly, why does everything show as D, even though I have the file/folders on E? Virtual Drive or something when emulating? If so, how do I find the dvd rom? I thought I'd give the disc a go, since the Hard Drive isn't working out.

Bump...
Is there a different bios that I can perhaps try. If someone could just tell me the name. I so want to get this one game working. I remember before (awhile back) I got Resident Evil to play on the emulator. Heck, I didn't know anything about a bios back then, so I don't think I had it. I've since deleted pcsxbox since then, and just now reinstalled it. It won't load either of my 3 bins of Final Fantasy VII (U). If anyone has gotten this game to work with v13, please tell me what exactly I'm doing wrong.
Help is supremely appreciated!
anybody got metal gear solid to work?
Working now. Nevermind.
THE GRINCH by Konami is crucifying me and after months of trying to sort this i am asking for help!! i have V.13 PCSXBOX and run lots of games via BIN/CUE - not a problem, very well versed etc. HOWEVER my kids wanted the Grinch for old times sake, i have correctly ftp'd the game to my xbox. i can make the game playable, however the character is supposed to automatically cling onto ledges etc. but on my xbox it will not do this!! i have played the disc in a borrowed PS1 and it runs fine, clings on etc lol. but when played on PCSXBOX it will not play ball. Has anyone any advice or similar occurance. Graphically / sounds works fine, just that it will not cling onto ledges. it is shown as having no protection, but i have read somewhere that there is a protection that will allow the game to run but not allow vital parts of the game played, something to do with the sub channel reading etc. However i have copied and re copied the disc very carefully. i dont normally ask rather find the answer myself. Just that i dont get to see my kids often enough and they really wanted us all to play it when they next visit, so please, serious repsonses if any please. Thanks
To all those who could not get Final Fantasy 7, or a number of other psx games to work, i just figured out that you must have the graphic filter set to NONE, i repeat must, or else it will lock up after the load screen. Once the game has started, you can set the graphic filter, but once you start up the game again, you must reset the filter to NONE.
The only psx game that i have tried that will work with the graphic filter set, is castlevania sotn.
I wished to hell that this would have been pointed out to me a long time ago; it would have saved me much frustration and hair trying to get that damn game, ff7, to work.

Does the emu also support these bios'? If so will certain games run better?
Thanks.
Yeah, you should be able to use any of those BIOS files, but you have to rename them "scph1001.bin". I currently use the BIOS found in the PSOne (the re-styled PSX... scph101), but I can't say that it has made any noticeable differences in the games. Then again, I've never really done any actual comparisons.... just nothing really immediately noticeable.

Hmn I just put the .img and the .sub in the same folder as all the others, works flawlessly.
I am loving this seems the majority of the best games work very nicely. Didn't get to play many PSX games back in the day due to lack of funds and a bad Tekken addiction

Hi, Final Fantasy VIII is listed as working, could somebody who got it to work please post what settings they used as I just can't get that to load at all. It could simply be a problem with the file, I can only get a bin cue, or a img, ccd, sub (everything else on the emulator is a ccd, img sub AND cue). Or of course simply a bad rip for some reason- could anybody post how big the file is meant to be so I can check and hopefully not waste anybodies time.
Also someone else posted that FFVII locks up on disc 2 and you have to use a ps emulator on the PC to get past it, that never happened to me, if anybody is having that problem I can post the settings I used to see if that helps.
Oh and oughtn't Slient Hill be changed to red by now? It's speed makes it unplayable and nobody has a working solution for that.
I'm new to pscxbox emulator, i downloaded it bcos i want to play ff7 and ff9. i've got the original discs and i've copied them to an image file using clone cd and then i used a program called ultraiso to convert the .ccd image into a .bin and .cue file. i've got v13 or something and the game is a Pal game. everytime i try to load any of the disc .bin files it comes up with the loading screen and just sits there for ever and ever, why is that? what settings should i have? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks much.
hey cant anyone get medievil to work? i love that game but it locks up at the loading screen for dan's crypt just like it says on the 1st page. i tried fiddling with different settings but i dont pretend 2 know what many of them do. if anyone has any extra spare time, this game is killer and i think everyone would enjoy it.

wipeout 2097 PAL schould do it according to your list but it goes WAY to fast...anyone has any solutions?? and yes i`ve switcht that 2 things of according to the list
tnx
Chrono Cross worked fine for me in BIOS mode - switching disks and everything. It doesn't run very sluggish if you have the frameskip on.
The only thing is, you need the frameskip off to see the names of the monsters in the Grand Slam on S.S. Zelbess....
any way to get legend of legaia working better? in BIOS it works fine but will occasionally lock up when doing certain Hyper Arts. Some of them work if you turn HLE on but then the game resets. any suggestions?
ahha!!!!
i messed with it alot, and finally got
Grandia -- use PCSXbox v11, BIOS MODE, CDDA Disabled, Frameskip OFF. Video 100% Sound 99%. now the only thing wrong is that during cimematic speech sequences, it's off by maybe 2-3 seconds after a while, otherwise PERFECT

Could someone help me get Soviet Strike to work? The game starts up fine, and the sound works well after turning everything off but frame limit. BUT when you go to start the first campaign, it leaves you hanging at the green blinking cursor screen. Not locked up, just there waiting for it to start. I bought this game last night solely to play it on this emulator and now it won't work. If no one can help, I'll just return it to EB.
after seeing the return of xport (i almost had a heart attack when i saw his new post recently damn), i hope there'll be a new pcsxbox version with tons of updated stuff, and be able to emulate ANY game perfectly, eliminating the need of running exspe in xbox linux to play any pcsxbox incompatibility game.
keep smokin that & you'll believe that such a thing will happen
PCSX cannot even emulate every PlayStation game perfectly. How can you expect PCSXBox to do so? XPort has stated that he is does not have anything earth shattering planned. I think that a huge update to PCSXBox, such as the one that you are hoping for, would be considered earth shattering.

only thing worth hoping for is if this new pSX emulator ever releases an open source cuz right now it plays most games on pc pretty lovely even ones that don't work on epsxe.
startrek invasion loads with latest version, can't remember with version it failed to load on, movies play but sound is a bit crackly on movies. no music, no voices.
ingame slowdown in places.
The special settings for Chrono Cross are only on the first compatibility list. This compatibility list that we are posting on is a modification of the first list. Run a search to find the first compatibility list.
I've got a problem with Lunar 2 that I don't see in the list. After every FMV, the game speed ramps up tremendously as if I were using fast forward at a very high speed. Audio character narratives don't speed up with the graphics, though (when the video/text for a scene plays out, the screen hangs at black and waits for the audio to finish).
My only workaround has been to save to the Memcard, then reset and load. Using save states doesn't correct the issue. Things then go back to normal until the next FMV. FMV's are pretty common in Lunar2, though, and are often immediately followed by important exchanges.
Is there a fix for this? Has anybody experienced anything like it? Forum search is still gone; I've been trying to read as much of the two compatibility threads as possible for similar reports, but so far I've found nothing. Please help.
so the special setting for chrono cross is that "disc swapping doesn't work", which was in fact fixed. chrono cross still has unbearable slowdown in battles... the frameskipping just butchers any animations but there's no other way to get it running full-speed. anyone got a secret snazzy fix for this slow-down that doesn't make the game run at 2fps?
oh and is there ever going to be another version of pcsxbox? the current one seems to have numerous graphical issues that have been fixed in the new PEOPS graphics plugin. i wish xport would either add the updates to the current builds or open the source so someone else can take up the mantle.

Chrono Cross - Runs somewhat sluggishly with minor graphics glitches. PCSXBox v13
Star Ocean: 2nd Story - Runs great in BIOS or HLE mode, even past the first battle (contrary to previous poster). can't save with the memory card for some reason. PCSXBox v13
what settings did you use for star ocean? it still freezes after the first battle for me in bios mode. and wont' get pass the name input screen in hle mode
I want to back up my games. What program should I use to make .bin and .cue files?
Does the image/iso have to be .bin and .cue or can they be any image/iso extention?
Someone said use BlindWrite, but I heard BlindWrite corrects the bad sector that are needed to be able to run in Pcsxbox.
cdrwin works fine for me
I disabled the throttle button (set to nothing + nothing) in controller configuration - controller 1 - change joypad mappings - change UI mappings - fast forward/throttle, nothing + nothing, and I still can't get a battle menu for FF9, and the screen flashes quite a bit. Can anyone help me with this, it's occured with every version of the image I've gotten.
so has anyone actually managed to get star ocean 2 past the first battle? it was mentioned here earlier that it was possible, but nothing i have tried has worked.
if you have managed it, please post your results!

I have this problem as well, poulpyx what settings did you use to get it to work? yes I know its spread out a lot looking at the dates with this query but I only got it recently & while it runs on my pc its just one of those games you want to play sitting on the sofa in front of the telly.
I'm trying to get Castlevania SotN to run but it has problems on HLE - text errors, freezing on the menu screen, no sound during FMVs.
How do I get the BIOS mode working? I downloaded the scph1001.bin file (although it was called something else) but where do I put it? I put it in the emu's bios folder but it won't load BIOS mode. The error message is based on the D:/bios location, but my emu is in E:/ so I'm not sure what I need to alter to square things up.
Thanks for any help.
The BIOS has to be correctly named.
yeah, got it working. it was named correctly but must have been a wrong/corrupted file. got it from another place and now SotN works much better

One is hacked to allow for no swapping, i read a big doc on this once about how it was all bullshit that you
needed to swap gta discs since GTA London is just a normal game and doesnt need anything from the normal GTA,
yet they coded in the swapping bullshit just to sell more copies.

Dont know if anyone posted this before but when i searched yahoo said was still having control locku.
Well i had to log back in after like 2 years to show it works. What i did was used v. 11 pscxbox on bios mode
with odd/even hack on, disable coord check on, old frame skip on, disable cdda on, disable xa sound on,, and thats it!!!
What is funny is i got lucky the first time turning these on since the controls havent been working....weird

guh... having to downgrade to get the controls working? still, better than not having it run at all i suppose. can you guarantee it works for at least an hour into the game?
what we have to do is really get on to xport as he has announced new versions of all of his emu's will be worked out soon, so perhaps he can crack this particular nasty bug for pcsxbox v14.
someone should create a sticky "Feature requests for PCSXBOX v14" thread... i'd do it myself, but i have to sleep now
Wow its at v14 lol been a long time, anyway yea it works in an hour and u can save state or use mem card.
I have v1, v2 and v11 to play all my games like harvest moon, which will only work correctly on v1 to my knowledge. If xport makes a new version it should have multi-compatibility but cant complain if u can use diff versions and they work.

I have tested this games:

Vagrant story have a problem with the sound.
Vagrant Story NTSC - 15 minutes in the game - Works Almost Perfect in Bios with all Setting at Default in Pscxbox v1.3 but it has one little problem with the sound, from time to time a foot step of the character makes an anoying beep sound and most of the human characters do that beep most of the time.

I think you need to patch the PAL version because it has a copy protection.
Also:

Future Cop L.A.P.D. NO. When using HLE it throws you back into the emulator. When using bios it hangs at "loading disc"-thing. - kvajnto
havent really tested it yet
but i get to the language selection screen of the game
will mess about with settings later!
I have been playing chrono trigger and it works perfectly with one major problem. I have played through the game should be able to save my game at the end to replay with my same characters. the game locks up after the screen that says the end. Anyone have any ideas on a setting that will work? It would be nice without trial and error having to beat the game multiple times with multiple settings only to have it lock up again. Thanks for the work that you do.
Theme Park World (PAL) - Works perfectly in BIOS mode.
Also, the first post has everything from 'Inital D' to 'Land Before Time' missing.
how do i get wild arms 2 to work all i get is a blank screen and can u please give me a list if bios files i need
Wipeout 2097 (PAL) on pcsxbox v13
the sound comes out as distorted noise.
Waku Waku Volley - Great, BIOS Mode, Old Frameskip ON, Parasite Fix ON. Just don't fastforward or the sprites start to flicker and the sound gets choppy.
Finger Flashing with RIP Translations patch - Great, same settings as above.

tales of destiny 1 and 2 work prefect for me besides the intro sound....try not to play with the sound test as it seems to slow the game down from there on....also...not only does old frameskipping need to be off...but frame limiter should be on otherwise the opening music starts fine and speeds way up...but there was no slowdown at all for me other than playing with the sounds
Under Final Fantasy IX (U), it says that it crashes at the fmv right after the second black mage boss fight. I got past it without any problems. I am assuming they are referring to the takeoff of the airship after Black Waltz #2 is defeated. Throttle is unmapped, FFIX movie fix is enabled, frameskip is disabled, old frameskip is enabled and I'm running it with default video settings.
The info for Alundra is switched up... it works with a bios, and crashes with hle.
Red Assault-Works in bios mode with cpu interperter on but movies play slow and frame rate could be better not playing at full
Been playing through NTSC Resident Evil Nemesis with Old Frame Skipping On, Framelimit Off and Battle Fix On. Been using throttle to correct the audio problem in cutscenes. Everything's been working fine, but I've reached the gate with the Golden Padlock in Raccoon Park, just after you beat the Grave Digger. The door animation works but the next area will not load up. I've played around and just cannot get it to work.

Unfortunately, the exact same thing is happening in PCSX too. So I guess I won't be finishing it again any time soon
I've been checkin this page out for a while but this is my first post, and its a question.
I am having the same problem with Tales of Destiny 1 and 2, after i get through the intros and you see the character moving to another screen it goes to a black screen and the music is on crazy slow down (it sounds like its still trying to run the game). I followed the advice of v13, and turning frameskip off and nada...im thinkin its somethin with the set-up because all my other rips have been gold.
Thanks to everyone thats posted, thanks to u guys i played all the way through Chrono Cross and Final Fantasy Tactics for the first time (respectively).
I'm not too sure if people still check this but ive gotten these games to work with no adjustments on v13:
Legend of Mana, Suikoden1+2, Chrono Cross, FFTactics, Arc the Lad 1, Xenogears, Breath of Fire 3 (4 doesnt appear to work with my rip atleast), Persona, Wild Arms 2, Vagrant Story, The Granstream Saga, Front Mission 3, FF Origins, and Castlevania SotN.
I saw that you had to change some frameskip options to get the battle cursor to show up in final fantasy 7, but i can't find where these options are in the menu to change them. if it helps i have it set to load the most recent state when i select the .bin file from the select screen. Any help is appreciated
I read in some forum that V.7 works with a bunch of the games that don't work in v13.
Well, it took v.7 for tales of destiny 1+2 to work, don't save state (saving game is fine) though it will load but in a pause state that u can't get out of.
Also, Dino Crisis Pal works flawlessly with v.7

Try using ePSXe. Just rename the memcard file extension so that you can load your save file on the pc emulator.

I haven't heard of anyone getting V.P. working on Pcsxbox...although there is another way around it theres a topic about it in this forum.
hey i was wondering if anybody could help me out i was playing legend of dragoon with pscxbox and it constantly freezes up after some boss battles, my solution before was switching the BIOS mode from BIOS FILE to HLE but now they both freeze up at the same boss and im stuck and dont know what to do if anybody has any ideas or anything i would apprciate it

Tomb Raider III - Already documented as slow which is true BUT it freezes after level 2 while loading level 3. So... overall I would say put it as RED since you can't really beat the whole game. It might just be me but I've tried it with BIOS and HLE but nothing works so if someone could verify if this is really the case?

seems a little fast though... but i havent played the game in forever so it might be the right speed

That's a sound plugin issue I believe (which affects a couple of other games like FF7, where some sound effects sound high pitched), so there's nothing we can do about it.

I think it was possible to change the color bitdepth to 32 bit on old versions of pcsxbox, but now xport just defaulted it to 16 bit (for a performance gain I guess). I remember reading that xport just forgot to remove the option from the graphic settings menu.

Make sure you're using HLE, not BIOS mode.

On HLE Mode Resident Evil loads back to the game selection?
I had this problem today when I burned a couple PSX games on a disc and copied the folders they were in, to my HDD using DVD2XBOX.
Resident Evil Director's Cut Dual Shock Version was one of the games I copied.
It went really quick so I thought that was strange, but when I checked the file sizes they were exact.
I tried to play it, but it would go back to the game selection menu on HLE.
So I went back to DVD2XBOX and copied the IMG, BIN and CUE one by one instead of the folder.
It worked after that.
Mortal Kombat 2:Works great when using PCSXBOX V13. Both BIOS and HLE mode work great. I prefer HLE mode. Enable frameskip, framelimit and lazy screen updates. Leave the rest at default settings. DO NOT use the fast-forward emulator function; this causes errors!
This is the best version of Mortal Kombat 2 available on Xbox! Yes, it's better than the 'Midway Arcade Treasures'-version: the PSX version has got better quality sound AND no problems with characters' shadows. Furthermore you've got the advantages of all PCSXBOX options, such as saving, gameshark codes and filters. I highly recommend it
Mortal Kombat 4:I used PCSXBOX V13. Very much playable, but has got some sound problems when things get rough onscreen; music starts to skip and slight crackling. Use BIOS mode. Only enable frameskip and framelimit; so it's default settings.
Options such as 'azy screen updates and old frameskip cause sound skipping and framerate hits. Anyone noticed any improvements when playing this game in PCSXBOX V16?
Has anyone got Fist of the North Star working on the new version? it never worked on the older ones despite what the compatibility list said. I tried a few combinations of cores etc.. yesterday but it still freezes in the opening bit where Kens walking through the desert just like it has always done.
I know this may sound stupid, but how do I change the settings on pcsxbox 16? I didn't see any options you guys were talking about. sorry I'm new at this.
Never mind I figured it out.
Dragon Quest IV (j) - Fully Playable , options 116 and 19 graphics and sound plugins. Switch to V 14 core. Bios mode only!

Yeah, Bad spelling & grammar.
VampX u r so meen.
vampX im in gr 9 so give em a break and i think theres a bug in the latest version of pcsxbox because i downloaded digimon and crono cross they work but its like the controller isn't plugged in but it is i tried fiddling with some settings but that didn't work can some1 help me
In final fantasy 7 (international version i think) the game freezes when placing a key in some ancient place with bugenhagen. You can continue the game though if you transfer your save game to pc and play on psX emulator or something similar past that point and then transferring back.
well i mean i played digimon world 1 bofre on a ps1 when i burnt it. it worked great and that
but when i put it on to my xbox 2 years later it works videos work a lil laggy but other than that it works but its like the controller isn't plugged in and some1 offer me help

ahum cough *cracks knuckles*
Okay the Compatibility List lists this as untested so here we go.
Have you even tried out different settings? did you try Bios mode? (i hope you got the psx bios from google)
have you tried HLE mode? have you tried different fixes and options to run the game?
and last but not least, is your joypad in joypad port #1 ?

I tried out Destruction Derby (don't have RAW) and it loaded just fine in HLE mode, only took about 10-15 seconds. But it locked up on me twice. I was able to play a race, but once it tried to load back to the menu at the end of the race it locked up. Then I re-loaded the game and played an actual destruction derby. It played just fine, but then it locked up while I was looking at the point standings after the derby.
Thraxen - thanks for verifying this. even in hle mode its a no-go. i can live with it. nevertheless many thanks!
I may try to re-rip the game to see if the lock-ups are due to a bad rip. The game speed was excellent, so it would be a shame if this game was actually unplayable. BTW, I was using the 1.6 core.

Well, I just tried DD RAW and it worked fine in BIOS mode. It's one of the fastest loading games I've seen, especially with frame limit set to off. The only problem I encountered was that the memory card saves don't seem to work properly. The game would just hang if I attempted to use the in game save (the emulator didn't lock up though). I may just need to change the memory card slot designations though... I've read that can make a difference in some games.
well my controller is in slot 1 and i tried different settings and i have bios its just like controls on it don't work i dont know but my contoller is plugged in it might be a bug but i dont know i cant find out because i cant find another versoin of the pcsxbox emulator.

1 - remove the pcsxbox save from the msdash
2 - remove the emulator dir
3 - download the latest version of pcsxbox from xbins
4 - reinstall emulator
5 - reboot and start pcsxbox and try loading the game
And dont try to skip anything from my list.
oh well i hope i dont get flamed for not searching but here goes i see valkyrie profile listed as not working? but i do get it to boot up...but then i am frozen when i meet odin is this farther than its been? or has it allways been like that?

Well, that's further than it says in the list. This is very well possible though. The new versions of PCSXBox have made a difference in some games. If you can't find any way around that point (have you tried different cores?) then I can update the status with your information.
no i have not but after posting i searched the forum and someone seemed to get as far as a battle? unless they are just joshing i am not sure will try the diff cores tonight but just tried default odd even bit hack and vandal heart fix played a good amount (bout ten minutes id say maybe less plays intro video at menu fine odddly...) but as i say am stuck when you meet odin methinks might just be bad bin file....
I've tried Valkyrie profile and have gotten past the first battle. You can't really see the battle menu so i just pressed the buttons randomly. After that I went through a big scene in the town and the game finally FROZE when I began traveling to the next destination.
I used the latest core, gpu and spu versions (also worked in core version 1.5)
-diabled cd da
-turned on the cpu wait fix(for valkyrie profile and MGS)
-played around with framelimit and frameskipping (don't remember exaclty what I did)
hope that helps
The analog sticks aren't working on my brother's Xbox. I installed PCSXbox on both of ours', his has never had it so there's no save or anything. The analog sticks work fine on mine, but on his, they don't do anything when you move them. Clicking them in (as in L3 and R3) works fine, but when trying to use the sticks to move or whatnot, it does nothing. I tried switching controllers and it's the same problem.
tweak the controller settings
QUOTE(manu_xl @ Oct 6 2006, 11:11 AM)

I shouldn't have to tweak the controller settings though since it's a fresh Pcsxbox install.
thanks vampX so remove the game and the emulator and install the emulator again from xbins how do i do that??
so yeah i am out of the first battle in valkyrie profile as we speak it has not froze on me yet am leaving town my sound which used to be horrible is actually great i am using pcsxbox 1.7 default.xbe 1.5 core i will post more settings later so far only thing screwed up was battle cursor not appearing over enemies and a little slowdown (kinda unclear about slowdown have never played original it seems if i press buttons since i cant see cursor that it was just my chars turn in the battle?) any one get better performance? any one able to get cursor appear over enemies any thoughts this one should be updated on the list it might just be playable with some more tweaking
i am now as we speak in a second battle with a princess who turned into a monster after eating ghoul powder? again i have never played this bettle just ended same prob with battle no cursor over enemy still going not freezing....
i am now in another battle with lombart? still going

You might want to try updating to the most recent version of PCSXBOX; version 18. For the missing cursor, try unmapping the throttle button and maybe enable Old Frame Skipping. Both of those sometimes affect menus/cursors. Also, do you have Frame Limit enabled? Several people, including myself, have actually found that that option can actually slow games down. The problem though it that the game may run too fast without it, but you should check it out anyway. You can also try setting Reverb and Interpolation to 'simple' to see if that improves the speed of the game.
i am now in a scene where the the valkyrie char is flying around the world map?
ok does the game work for you sir? i have had problems booting on 1.8. i am using 1.7 1.5 core its not slow during the dialouge or in towns just during battles but actually i think its just that i cant see cursors? will try your suggestions can you see cursors in this game or are these just your best guesses (btw i appreciate the help either way)
ok here is latest update game seems to like 1.6 core this this is relatively untested cd da disabled framelimit on xa sound on and xa sound fix onframsekip off odd even bit hack on now i put on an fps counter and the game is def slowing down in battle less than 20fps (the frustrating part is not in battle the game is running beautiful) if anyone else can help pls post (note: if you become stuck just try savestating just b4 the freeze yeah i know its hard to time but then when you go back to game you might find you skip through the freeze wierd..._)
well nwayz just wanted to post my exploits i am savestating at this point i have gotten to some sort of underground ruins after the flying bit (remember i never played this back in the day so bear with me) i got a firelance? and book of magic spells? this game seems so dang cool if only the battle part wasnt so slow and lacking cursors proper menu movement (i can bring up a menu with back button? like end turn battle order etc..but can't actually click through it?) on a side note a buddy of mine with a 1.0 box was right by me while i was playtesting it but for some odd reason he cant boot this bin file with pcsxbox 1.8 only with 1.4 and is mega slow and sound distorted wierd huh?
Unfortunately I don't have the game myself, so I can't really help you with anything other than just suggestions that have worked on other games.
understandable that is what i feared let me know if you want my file i dont care you have helped me alot but at the very least update the thread to show its status pls///
What exactly would you like me to put for the status? Just type out what you think it should say.
for now just put that it def boots us version but that battles are slow fps under 20 and choppy with cursors missing but completely playable outside battle game playing pretty near 60 fps now.... will psot my exact settings later tonight
Ok vampX i tried switching around the settings again but that didn't work, now what and i tried doing what u said but i dont know what the msdash is or xbins guide me step by step
Um, it says Rival Schools is supposed to work perfectly, but I can't get it to work at all...
I've got several other working games, but I'd really like to play this one again.
Chocobo Racing works perfectly with default settings.
Sexy Parodius did not work with default settings, though the list says it does. I haven't gotten it to work yet.

I did indeed try Sexy Padodius in HLE mode, and in BIOS mode, and even with the core: 1.14, gpu: 1.12,
spu: 1.16, popular settings. Still did not work with v18.
However, in response to my comment about Rival Schools a few posts back, I got it working. It does not work with the default settings, as it says in the original post, but it DOES work with the core: 1.14, gpu: 1.12, spu: 1.16, graphics filter: off settings.
Finally Jade Cocoon doesn't work with default settings (it's not tested at all yet), but it does work with the same settings I stated for Rival Schools: core: 1.14, gpu: 1.12, spu: 1.16, graphics filter: off.
-Excessive italics used to emphasize the important part of this post.-
Despite what the original post says, the following games do NOT work with v18:
Strikers 1945
Dead or Alive (US)
I tested several options---
1. All Default,
2. Bios file, core: 1.14, gpu: 1.12, spu: 1.16, graphics filter: Off, all else: default
3. HLE file, core: 1.14, gpu: 1.12, spu: 1.16, graphics filter: Off, all else: default
4. All 3 of the above, but also with Disable CDDA: On (for DoA, as noted in original post)
---but to no avail. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Also worthy of note is that these were ISO files, but it shouldn't be a problem as I've gotten other games to work just fine as ISOs (Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy Tactics, etc.).

[edit] I just tried Strikers 1945 and it played just fine. I played it using both the 1.5 and 1.6 cores and in both cases it ran good. I had Frame Limit 'On' and Frame Skip 'On'. I also played the game in bin/cue format... and this was version 18. You are doing something wrong in your testing somewhere... maybe it's the file format?
My Vagrant History used to freeze after the battle with 2 knights (where the floating plataform is), but I get to cross using HLE instead of normal Bios, but for some reason I cant save in the usual spots, only using the SaveState feature of PcsxBox.
Hope this helps those who want to play the best game ever made for the PSX

I just finished using MagicISO to convert the iso files to bin... still no luck.
I appreciate you testing it yourself though.
I'm not doing anything wrong; the only other possibility is that I've got a bad rip. I've tested several games that didn't work initially, but I managed to get them to.
I tested this fully again, going through the motions as I have before.
Ah well. I wasn't overly interested in this particular game. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

It simply will not load the game. I just get the loading screen indefinetely. I've tried it using .iso and .bin/.cue files and nothing works. Any suggestions? What could be the problem??? Please, any help would be awesome!

Make sure the Gfx filter is set to none specifically for the FFVII image or it wont work,
or it could be that you actually havnt even put the PSX bios into PCSxbox,because it doesnt come with the emulator,i cant tell you where to find it because of the rules here... but its pretty easy to find
no its not he was helping me before it was about a game i had that didn't work its probally the version of the emulator but i dunno i guess he forgot or something
If anyone's got the following games working, please post your setup. Also are any of you like me and not able to dl the game settings directly from xport?
Xcom - I get it to work but it eventually freezes. Is there something that needs to be turned off or on in order to stop screen freezes? maybe a bug they'll figure out in future releases.
Thrill Kill - Ignoring all the critics I'm curious what this game is like, if anyone's got an image working please tell what type ie bin/img/mds etc and the settings you used to get it to load.
Marvel Super Heros vs Street Fighter - maybe it's my image but I can get this one working either.
Jikkyou Oshaberi Parodius - not sure if it's the same game as Sexy Parodius but it gets stuck at the loading screen.

Everyone is having this problem but noone has a fix yet afaik. i was going to play the game on a pc emulator up until past that point and then transfer the saves but cant be bothered yet. If someone wants to do it, could they please upload the save somewhere for us?

Mic what's up with that. I didn't ask for your analysis of the game. I'm looking to get games working period. what's the point of having/sharing them if they don't work.
Next time resist your urge and post something helpful instead of putting down a game you don't care for. I have alot of games I don't like. Once you get a little older you'll realize that it's not all about you. Often times people don't like the same things you will and that's ok. You know what they say about oppinions?
So can any of you log into xport and dl game settings?!?
For the record I've tested Xcom numerous times and that game does not work. It loads but very early on just after establishing a base and around first alien contact it freezes.
I've tested Xcom with bin/cue and Img/Ccd format and I can't get it to not freeze. If anyone can confirm sucessfully waging a campaign I would like to hear about it. Otherwise I think the game should be listed as NOT working.

Final waste of time and space:
Getting rid of ANYthing on your Xbox has nothing at all to do with Pcsxbox game compatibility.
Nor does Xbins.
Use the Search function already. You would have had your answer days ago. Stupid argument ended.

Jade Cocoon works with core: 1.14, gpu: 1.12, spu: 1.16, graphics filter: off.
Thanks!
Just a question; lots of you are saying to use the older GPU and SPU settings. Can anyone give me an example of a game that runs better in some way with the older plugins? I haven't noticed any difference at all with any games I've tried.

as a general rule, j_dunlap, one should at least TRY to find the answer oneself before asking someone else (or even worse, making a new thread to do so), thus wasting their time. that rule of thumb goes for not only these boards, but for any forums in the magical world of the internet.
in conclusion, i'm 100% certain that the answer to your questions can be found on these boards, using simple searches such as "ftp to xbox flashfxp" and whatnot. i'm done being rude to you, even though you're obviously the type who wouldn't understand anything but the most simple of instructions and/or suggestions. but i'm sure i'm not the only one who would appreciate it if you'd use the search function before mucking up a thread (like i've admittedly done myself with this near-pointless argument).

You can play Star ocean Second story with ePSXe ,running on XDSL{xbox dam sam linux}
But of a mission to setup tho... but it does play games Pcsxbox cannot
thanks for that, Razor. i don't doubt i could figure it out on epsxe, but i'd rather play it on my xbox and thus a tv as opposed to a computer monitor. i'll keep playing with the settings when i can be bothered to do so. thanks again.

j_dunlap is an idiot, i helped him again and again but he just doesnt understand, no matter how easy i try to explain it,
furthermore when he asked me to hold his hand and guide him through the entire process i stopped answering him.
but he kept posting and posting and eventually even resurrected a post from 2005 just to get my attention,
so i once again tried to explain it to him as easy as i could, result? he never replied.thanks for that, Razor. i don't doubt i could figure it out on epsxe, but i'd rather play it on my xbox and thus a tv as opposed to a computer monitor. i'll keep playing with the settings when i can be bothered to do so. thanks again.
Thats why he suggested you use xbox linux, sadly razor_ramon is one of those noobs who refuse
to check my answer thread when they dont remember the url to the epsxe on xbox help thread.i meant i'm good enough to not keep that going, as you did. so i'm not a hypocrite.
Since you were the one who started it in the *first place*, i'd have to say you are so very much
a hypocrite for now trying to pretend to be the better person.
well, too bad for j_dunlap. i'm not surprised.
as for the /yawn crap, it's not even important enough to discuss further.
i'm done with grossly off-topic posts.

Nice work on this thread.
Question though....would it be better to use a spreadsheet style listing (different cells) to help organize data?
Game Name - Game Version - Region - % working - Emulator Version - Core - Mode - Special Settings - Notes/Glitches
Reason being, i'd like to be able to organize the list by what works.
Also, i didn't see Metal Gear Solid: Integral on the list....so, if a game isn't on the list at all, does this mean it was never reported, or was it lumped together with another game, say, Metal Gear Solid JPN.
thanx

that's a great idea.
as for MGS:I, it may just be that it's never been reported. i tested a japanese game that hadn't been on the list before, but was added once i posted the status of it...
Mic sorry for getting upset. I just want to get every game working that can. lol.
If it's that terrible a game then I'll stop trying to track it down and thank you for sparing me any further time looking for it.
I don't know why people release games in MDS format, sucks, i only have one game in that format that works. Tekken.
Does anyone have Gundam Battle Assault 2? First one works perfectly so I'm hoping to find it.
Oh, it also seems that i'm the only Xcom fan in the scene so I'll quietly say that I've got non psx xcom running perfectly on my xbox. If anyone wants to know more about how I figured this out please feel free to ask. I freaked out when I finally got XCOM running crash free on my big screen. OMG!! Beginner mode is kicking my ass. Luv XCOM!!!
My old school game collection is almost complete. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I'd like to hear more from you guys as to what games you're looking to get working etc. flame free. Sorry again Mic.

Anyone have any tips for swapping to the 2nd disc of Final Fantasy VII (FF7)?
I get to the screen where it asks whether I want to save, then I either save or not (doesn't matter which) and it goes to a black screen and locks. I tried loading disc 2 directly but it doesn't show any saves available.
I'm using the standard settings as listed in the Compatability list (this thread).
Ideas?

WCW Nitro had a buzzing noise for me, but I fixed it. I believe the setting that fixes this is turning XA Sound ON. FWIW, I have all CPU Fixes OFF and all other SPU settings off/default.
EDIT: For any game where the buzzing is the only problem in an otherwise working game, download the configuration labelled "Jet Moto 2 - no buzzing this works" from xport's site.

DANGER GIRL Bin/Cue Works with very minor sound delay in v18 with standard settings. I could not figure out how to use the nightvision goggles, the screen will whiteout if you use them for too long. Only tested for 10 min or so. Family gets impatient rather quickly watching me test these games, lol.
Continuing to look for obscure games which haven't been tested yet. Someone please hook me up with the info on where I can buy Gundam Battle Assault 2. PLEASE!

Silent Hill - Runs a little to fast but no problems that I encountered. The sound bug seemed to have been fixed. Only tested with default settings on v18. v18 -Hawke213x
Klonoa Beach Volleyball Bin/Cue works perfectly on v18 with standard settings.
Contrary to what's posted, Ghost in the Shell img/ccd/sub doesn't work. Maybe the Bin/Cue is the magic format but mine requires Frameskip OFF in order to see the Piracy and Sony screens then it fades to black... pernamently.
I did figure out that by turning on Use CPU interpreter that it will load the memory card or you can play a cd, but that's it.
I wish the testers would give a little more info as to what format the game is. I think that would be really helpful for those of us trying to get games working. Once in awhile MDF/MDS's work, it would be helpful to see that for Tekken 3 for example that MDF/MDS works with it along with whatever other formats the users have tested. My tekken3 rip is MDF/MDS so you can chalk that one up first.
We could better avoid wasting time dling a format that's been tested as NOT WORKING.
Agile Warrior F111X Img/Ccd/Sub works perfectly with standard settings and Disable CDDA On in order to get rid of a really loud and disturbing buzzing sound.
Assault Rigs Img/Ccd/Sub Works with standard settings, need to set Sound TImer Method in SPU Fixes to Original Method to help with some sound glitching.
Treasures of the Deep Img/Ccd/Sub Opening FMV sound is a little choppy but besides that it works great with standard settings, I think it sounds a little better with Sound Timer Method set to Original in SPU Fixes.
Ballerburg - Castle Chaos Bin/Cue Runs well with minor sound wavering in intro FMV. Cant understand most of what the tutorial has to say. Standard Bios settings gets it running just fine.

Adventure of Phix Bin/Cue Works Perfectly with Standard Bios Settings
Akuji The Heartless Img/Ccd/Sub Works quite well only minor slowdown with Standard Bios Settings w/ Frameskip and Framelimit turned OFF. I get a nasty sound reverb so Disable CDDA needs to be ON. Very Playable.

You need the latest version of the emulator (v18). If you have started the game before, hit "X" instead of "A" when selecting the game to see the settings screen again.

I've already done that mate. I've edited all the graphical settings, it's just "Wait CPU Action" and "Sound Timer Method" that I can't find despite searching the whole settings screen.

Well I thought it was V18 seeing as it came automatically with the latest version of the Slayer dashboard I installed. Turns out it's V.11 though.
Is upgrading easy or a bit of a hassle?

Hello everyone, new member here but I'm not a noob. So stop staring at me...anyways I've always wanted to help with this thread.
Star Ocean: The Second Story still will not work. I've tried very many settings to no avail. HLE, and Bios modes didn't help either. aka - The game still freezes up at the first part.
Vagrant Story - Runs near perfect in Bios mode, Lazy screen updates and Old Frameskipping on. The game freezes for me however after the 4th room where the 2 guards attack you. Anyone else have this problem?
Retesting Megaman Legends 2 very soon, hopefully with positive results.
Megaman Legends 2 still Doesn't work. In Bios after the Capcom image the game will not load and it freezes at that image in HLE mode. Tried every CPU fix and nothing worked. Even tried using throttle at max speed to see if I could somehow bypass that and that didn't work.

You're very welcome guy's, I find it very rewarding to give back whatever I can to this community. It's been a long time in the making getting this emu working and I've been wanting it to work as well as it currently is for a LONG time.
I have one request which I do think makes a big difference. It would be nice to ask people to mention what format the game is in when posting their findings. IE MDS/MDF format seems to be a very rare format to get working, while BIN/CUE's seem to work well most of the time without messing with many settings.
For all the games I've tested there are many that don't work but I haven't posted on those because it's my belief that they may work in a different format. This has held true a few times which is enough for me to continue tracking down the same game in different formats to find out what truly does and does NOT work.
Anyway, I'll continue on this quest until I'm content, so lets keep on truckin.
PS would you guys be interested in hearing out what format/games haven't worked? or should I continue to look until i'm convinced of a games functionality?

That might be good info. If you run across a game that didn't work in one format, but did work in another that could be useful information. But I personally wouldn't waste time trying to test each game in every format. I'd stop at the first one that I find that works... but if you find any that didn't work along the way, list those.
Aye, I plan on stopping with the first working format I find. But alot don't list what kind of format it is so you it's a bit like roulette, never know what you're going to get. With that said here's the recent list of MDF/MDS's that don't work. There were many before but before I started reporting these the non working got deleted.

First to access these options, press X on the Game file when you want to load it.
To access these settings below look in the graphic fixes section of the settings.
Grandia IMG/CUE - BIOS Mode, Old Frameskip On, Lazy Screen Updates On, Frameskip Off. This will get rid of voice delays, at least it did for me. Game plays near perfect, 97% speed.

you know....
since these are all just config files, probably located in the SAVES folder, do you think it might be time to put all these configs together into a single zip file and make it available for download? Might be considered lazy to some, but with so many people asking "how do i get this to work" perhaps having all these settings for all these games already done will help end some of the questions.
it could be organized pretty simply.....all games that work 100% perfectly as of now would be verified by 1 other person. Once verified, the file gets sent for submission into the Zip file, with a description that includes Game Name, SCUS/SLUS number, region, image type, settings, and emulator version tried on.
all games that work in the 90 percentile would come in a seperate zip. all other games that work but have glitches would come in a third zip. Both of these zips would add a "glitches/bugs/issues/notes" area to let people know whats going on.
these files can then be included with the current version of the emulator. with all the submissions happening on this thread so quickly, id say updates to the zips come once a week, after verification that the settings work. during that time, the settings get posted for people to try out.
If at a later date, better settings are found, or the emulator is updated, the first thing we do is copy the save files into the emulator and compare. If an update is needed, it gets mentioned and completed right away.
does this make any sense to anyone?

It's a great idea, but I'm not sure it would work out any better. It would be hard to verify every game setting posted, and 2nd we'd most likely get alot of questions regarding how to put the file in the xbox and what folder. Another problem is that sometimes downloaded games work slightly different than others and the same settings that work for some guy may not work for the next one. Overall though it depends on what Thraxen thinks.
Dino Crisis 2 IMG/CUE - Old Frameskip On, Frameskip Off, Lazy Screen Updates On. Game runs Full Speed, an occasional stutter in the voice occurs once in a while, but it's small and doesn't take away from the game any.

it shouldn't be too difficult. if people are this far advanced into PS1 emulation, they can follow directions to getting configuration files into the right folder. unifying the install location would help also. It shouldn't be hard to verify the settings either....it takes maybe 10 minutes of game play and several save states.....initial tester plays maybe 30 minutes or so to see what happens, makes a couple of save states....includes them up for consideration. verification people will take those files and run the game, playing another 10 min or so. if the game works the same for them, it's verified, the save states are stripped out, the info gets added to the readme file, and the config goes to the proper place in the zip
lastly...a unified way of ripping games. i always use Alcohol or CloneCD for my ripping, always save to BIN/Cue. downloaded games should be avoided....there are enough of us around who have psx games that should be able to rip the game and test it out....ps1 games are not so out of print that they can't be found at all.
Hey all, great thread so far. I'm new to this emulator and I was wondering what software you're using to make bin/cue files for the emulator? Specifically, I want to play Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

This idea has sort of been discussed before. Except I think the discussion revolved around setting up a server to download config files from the emulator itself. There is an option in the emulator to download config files and I think it was previously going to a site Xport set up. I'm not sure if that server is still up and running or not, but Xport did say that the emulator could be set up to connect to a different site. But this idea should work too.
So, if you guys want to go with having a collection of configs available for download in zip files it must be decided who is going to be in charge of collecting the configs and where will they be hosted? There is lots of public online storage sites these days. I myself have some web space we could use if need be. I could set up FTP accounts for the people who want to manage the zips and then add links to the zips the first post in this compatibility list. The advantage of doing it this way is the links would always be the same as long as the zip file names stay the same. If a public host was used the link would change every time a new zip was uploaded.
As for downloaded games... any discussion directly related to piracy is forbidden by the rules, so we'll just leave that concern out of any further discussion of this topic.

There are a fair number of disc burning software that can make bin/cues. I personally use Alcohol 120%. You can also use CDRWin, BlindWrite, CloneCD, etc... Also, keep in mind that PCSXBOX can also often read other formats as well (ISO, IMG, etc...).
Well, I'll be willing to participate then. My opinion of an upload site would be www.MegaUpload.com , but I'm game for just about anything. (Only reason I'd prefer MegaUpload is because they have a free Membership)
Murder of Crows gets my vote for being the guy responsible for the config project as he seems the most zealous to get it started. Hopefully he can put a config list together better than he did his Xmugen project.
Far as how I get my games, I don't plan on ever ripping any of them myself.
Will be posting more games which haven't been tested as soon as they finish.

*off topic, xmugen related*
several factors were involved in the xmugen issue...primarily, little/no co-operation from the "almighty" xmugen gods....miscommunication on several levels, and being told that what i was trying to do "wasn't helping" things.
rather than keep going with a project that no one seemed to care about, and that only sparked anger/jealousy out of guybird (to the point that he seemed intent on releasing another update to Xmugen....never saw it though), i stopped my work and let whatever happened happened.
i *COULD* go back to it....i loved xmugen....but the whole fiasco left a very bitter taste....to the point that i even stopped work on my own personal copy where it was....i was nearly finished integrating the menu system for the non-gentoox loader to have the same resolution changes as GentooX.
*on topic*
I can't take on the project right now...as much as i would like to....emulation is what got me an xbox in the first place....but, as anyone who's seen my ads in the BST section knows, my girlfriend split, leaving me with her half of the bills and rent, and 3 hungry kitties to feed. if i don't find a roommate in 2 weeks, i'm going to be homeless....end of story.
so, thank you for the nomination, but i must decline...just wanted to offer up an idea for getting compatibility to the most people (and the idea doesn't just stop here....think to what i did with XMugen: Double Impact, if you know where to find it).

Spent the afternoon going through these and testing my butt off. Eyes hurt, now I'm off to work. YAY!!!
Anyway, most all of these are new and a few aren't even on the list so hopefully these help out a bit. Most of them work great, only a few non working and I will continue testing to see what I can figure out. Feel free to lend some "useful" suggestions if you know what you're talking about.
MoC, I help GuyB test the xmugen and you fugged up by wanting to go at it alone. I think you'd be alot more successful if you stopped pretending you know what you're talking about and dumb it down a few notches and plead for help. That way you can learn something. I know the truth is hard to hear but that's why your xmugen failed. Never argue with the "Gods" as you call them as they know what they're talking about because they spend most of their free time testing, searching and more testing. then only after they've tested the living hell out of it do they toss it up for DL.
Humility is good. I'm the first one to say I don't know Jack about PCSXbox or xmugen. I just know how to test and I'm smart enough to read between the lines and see what works.
I think you're in the same boat, you're just not willing to say you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

First off, nice work.
that being said, i didn't "fug up". I asked if anyone wanted to see what i had done. repeatedly. even sent it to GuyBird in an email. that was the communications break down...his email linked to the Xmugen site is not primary....he went on like i hadn't contacted him about things, because he didn't check that email addy.
it ticked me off because he was saying that someone else came up with the code, and yet i had come up with the scripting to make everything work using UnleashX and the GentooX loader, for those of us with 128mb ram upgrades. He doesn't have one, and he doesn't care so much about those who do.
I had an idea about merging the 2 distrobutions into a single one, covering all users of Xmugen. guybird still insisted someone else came up with the scripting code. I didn't release it into a public forum because it was beta and needed things worked out...i didn't want to be responsible for someone wiping out their whole xmugen set up.
everyone insists i was "going at it alone" and the only reason that ended up happening was because i didn't get the one piece of credit i deserved, nor did i get any sort of apology afterwards.
Lastly, over and over Guybird, aka Mr XMugen God, said that my set up could not work. but it did. who cares the reasons WHY it worked....the fact is that i created a script to make things as easy for GentooX users as his menu loader was for his kind of loader. When it proved to work, guybird continued to berate the work that i had done....on my own now because i "pissed him off".....and said that i was causing problems instead of finding solutions.
what i did for XMugen didn't "fail"....that much was proven when it was distributed. I just never continued work on it as GB kept saying he had some "improvements" coming, and some more packs....that's fine and dandy...if he is going to work on new bootloaders and slim down XMugen even more, GREAT.
My idea was to make XMugen "plug and play" for anyone's system, and i succeeded in that to an extent, for something that was done as a beta, without any help from the outside.

that's really funny. i know more than you think i know, but less than everyone assumed. what i did was simple...anyone could have done it, i just did....can you see the point in having 5 distrobutions of XMugen depending on what system upgrades you do/don't have?
i am no god at xmugen. i saw a problem, i tried to fix it, and offer it to everyone when i knew it was relatively stable. I did NOTHING to the core of XMugen, i just tried to simplify it. i wrote a script in UnleashX that made GenTooX work like the menu loader system Guybird did.
It worked.
It could work BETTER and FASTER, if guybird were to support it....but he's not a big enough man to admit that the idea had merit, or to apologize when it was warranted. for that, i'll just wait on the next release, if he does another one, before i apply the scripts again.
if you want my humility, find my release and read the "instruction manual" included, and try to count how many times i gave guybird credit, even after he started in on me.
Damn... nice work, sotu. I'll get the list updated after I return from my trip this weekend.
True you did give Guybird alot of credit. I liked that alot and mentioned it to him but there was already some bad blood between the two of you so that credit given him didn't seem to matter much.
Personally I'd like to see you and him make ammends and see what you can do to help him make his project as rock solid as possible, since you seem to know more about xmugen than I. Bottom line there's not a crash free slim and there needs to be one. Guy's is the closest stable project I know of and your expertise would be much appreciated by all. You just need to make an effort to appologize to him for whatever he feels you did wrong. Would definitely require you being the bigger man.
But from Guy's perspective you should understand he was trying to help you when you decided to go in your own direction then later when you needed his help is when it seemed the rift started.
Bottom line both of you love mugen and were going in different directions. IF you can manage to make ammends the results might be really fantasitc. For the both of you.... maybe he'll mention me in there somewhere too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

i doubt it will happen any time soon....for several reasons....xmugen is really just Linux Mugen running on an xbox via a mini linux distro. this means that the stability of xmugen is based 100% on the old Mugen code *AND* the stability of the distro you are using. the distro won't be much of a problem for the most part, but the Mugen code will NEVER improve....the creators of the program got pissed off back in like 98 or something and plain stopped working on it. no source released, no improvement. ever.
so...the only way to really stablize xmugen is by finding the best settings and incorporating them, and putting it on a distro that works very well/stable.
i love xmugen. i think there is a ton that can be done to it by means of scripting, etc...but little more will happen with the core files until someone gets the source.
again, very nice work on the psx stuff
Thanks MoC, that's good info, I was aware that the Mugen guys killed it awhile back and hopeful for someone who's skilled in scripting who can code some linux features. Like quitting out to the SP's instead of having to reboot.
I had all but given up on PCSXbox when along comes these recent updates, pumping new lifeblood into this scene. I told myself a few years ago that if they ever updated PCSXbox that I'd track down all the games and see what worked.
Well now I'm realizing that's a TALL order. But like I said, it's really gratifying in several ways. Keep up the good work guys.
PS. It would be really nice to have a somewhat detailed explanation as to what every feature of PCSXBOX does. And if we don't know, we need to figure it out. It will greatly inhance my trouble shooting ability.
I can start the list with what I believe to be the functions of the features and a mod can fix it with the correct info and maybe move the completed list up to the front of this post. Just an idea I had while testing these this afternoon. I haven't been writing them down like I should, I know I've got a few figured out. Probably common knowlege for most but what the heck it would be nice to see it in print.
Help guys, I can't get Chrono Cross to get past the New Game screen. It asks me if I want to use the vibration functions and that's it. What settings do you guys recommend me?
I just wanted to post a couple of thoughts here. I know this is the pcsxbox thread but I was surprised at the discussion here. I am very much into XMugen. AMOC I still use your Double Impact beta. I wish you had not left the little scene at nug nug. I know your work wasn't appreciated by many. I am so sorry it left a bitter taste. But I want you to know to this day I still love what you did. we do truly need your input. I beg for you and Guybird to bury the hatchet. The Xmugen gods as you say are a bit trying, but We are all in this together. The Pc mugen scene has been less than inviting but after playing PC mugen for the first time recently I must say I love XMugen much more. Look what this guy did on his own without even knowing bout that site: http://www.bigmech.com/misc/mugen/ . Also as I think Guybird informed you the larger swap file has really increased performance. These are great strides for our little scene. With that all said Iwant you to know that I wondered bout what happened to you alot AMOC. Believe it or not I was hoping you and your old lady hadn't broken up. It's wierd from all the work I saw you doing on the XMugen pack. I had a hunch. I am so sorry. I too have been through alot. some stuff very similar. If you need to talk to someone I am here. [email protected] or [email protected]
On the pcsxbox note I get mixed results running Valkaryie Profile on ver 18...sometimes I loose voiceovers...
as for crono cross my bud just confirmed he beat it all way through so it works good try disabling vibration in options like try unmapping fast forward/throttle as well

*last off topic post, promise*
Wow....that was really touching man...thank you.
yeah, after reading this topic over a few days ago, i tried to extend some questions to Guybird in an XMugen related thread....i didn't get much of a direct response....which is fine. the work he has done is pretty amazing...i'm a bit concerned about possible conflicts with OTHER cache drives....not sure which drive Mimesis uses, but i do remember there being an issue with content not coming because of my swap file.
i've take a script i found elsewhere (sorry original author, i can't find you to give you credit) and incorporated it into my mods that clears out the cache drives for you. *IF* i go back to xmugen scripting work, this was going to be included...it would increase load times initially, but i felt that being able to clear the file once in awhile was better than leaving it there...only problem is that you can't go back to UnleashX directly, so the script has to be done manually....kinda lame, but we are limited by the tools we have available.
I don't think i like where Guybird is going next, however...it SOUNDS like he was going to force people to use XBMC as a launchpad for XMugen, because UnleashX can't see more than 2 directories deep to auto-scan. I'd prefer to insert code as opposed to auto install....i like to have control over the order in which my screenpacks show up...also, the features he's doing will further split the "Haves" from the "Have Nots"....in other words, those with 128mb boards will not get the same kind of features and benefits....the menu system guybird is working on has a linux kernel that can not see 128mb ram upgrades.
its frustrating that he's going this way....but i'm not a linux guy...i'd have to learn how to create an irdloop.gz file to do what i want, and kinda "reverse engineer" what he's doing and see what can be applied to GenTooX...but add the Simulators folder i need.
i have no clue as to how he makes the xbe screenpacks at the moment (not 100% the truth...i read up on it months ago, but life interrrupts)....what i do know, though, is that they are self contained pieces of genius....if i can make everything else work in gentoox with the packages as they stand, perhaps i can pull off another Double Impact release....but my heart still isn't in it yet.
I've not stopped other work though....depending on how much time i have, and how much help i get, be looking for a release of another project soon.
in the meantime, i'm going to try to rip MGS:I and see if i can make it work in this emulator.
ack, i lied.
for those curious, i've been told that one can find Double Impact again if they look somewhere in the sky.
Guys I would like to have a little more specific ID's on the functions of PCSXbox. One by one list the the emu feature followed by a description of a problem that it fixes or something to tell what does what so we can quickly ID a problem and it's fix.
Guess there's no one better than myself to get this started, I'd just like to have each addition be tested and verified by someone else then maybe have it posted onto the first page along with the rest of the helpful hints.
Feedback please, if you have a link to some xport goldmine explanation of features would be the bomb.
Tactics Ogre It does now work in the newer pcsxbox version (v18), got to chapter 2 so far: core 1.4, gpu 1.12, spu 1.6, everything else default -Potman
I am having some problems running this, the buttons just seem to stop working on v18, any ideas how to fix this?
Hmm... can't seem to delete or edit my post
Tactics Ogre runs on Default, but the X (cross) button stops responding occationally, on HLE it runs flawlessly.

Agreed. That would be a huge help.
I tested "Driver - You Are The Wheelman" with version 1.5, and it does work indeed, except for the fact that when one tries to restart a mission (any mission), the game will crash - as well as the Xbox.
Thanks.
The Game, Twisted Metal 3, on my xbox. The Music is not working, it sounds staticy. The gameplay, videos are fine. the music doesnt work. Can someone direct me to someone who can help me?
I follow the directions about problems Metal Gear Solid, it works. Thanks guys.
Here's the stuff I don't understand. If anyone can give specific examples of a problem scenario and how one of these functions fixes the problem that would be quite helpful.
GRAPHICS FIXES
Odd/even bit hack
Expand screen width
Ignore black brightness color
Disable coord check
Use low res fps timer
Use PC fps calculation
Lazy screen updates
Use old frame skipping
Dark forces fix
CPU FIXES
Parasite Eve/Vandal Heart fix
Always enable SIO IRQ
Use CPU interpreter
Always enable SPU IRQ
SPU FIXES
XA speed fix
Reverb
Interpolation
Wait CPU Action
IRQ in Decoded Sound Buf
Sound Timer Method
Many of these I've toyed with and got things to work just from pure luck. But when you're testing hundreds of games I cannot begin to tell you how tired I am of not knowing exaclty what the hell these things do.
I'm at my wits end. Need help or I'm probably going to finish getting the last few games I'm wanting and take a break from testing for awhile.
Ultimate 8 Ball BIN/CUE Works perfectly with standard bios settings, turn Frameskip OFF.
Ultimate Fighting Championship BIN/CUE Runs perfectly with standard bios settings.
Um Jammer Lammy BIN/CUE Works perfectly with standard bios settings, Sound Timer Method ORIGINAL. Will take practice to figure out the button layout.
Seems that CPU Fixes Always enable SIO IRQ turns off your controller button functions. When I turned it ON none of my buttons worked in game.
Frogger IMG/CCD/SUB Runs perfectly with standard bios settings.
Frogger 2 ISO Runs perfectly with standard bios settings.
Jurassic Park Warpath IMG/CCD/SUB/CUE Runs perfectly with standard bios settings Frameskip & Framelimit OFF. There is a very faint reverb at beginning of fight but goes away during battle.
Pipe Dreams BIN/CUE Works Perfectly with standard bios settings, not sure how or if you're even supposed to be able to rotate the pipes directions. If not then the game works perfectly since I can't seem to turn the pipes.
Powerpuff Girls BIN/CUE Works Perfectly with standard bios settings.
Spongebob Squarepants IMG/CCD/SUB Works perfectly with standard bios settings, Voice overs are a little choppy but not too bad, game plays great!
Vanark Astro Trooper BIN/CUE Game runs good enough with standard Bios settings, Frameskip OFF and if you want it to run really fast turn Framelimit OFF. The simulator doesn't start for me. Not extensively tested.
Vanguard Bandits IMG/CCD/SUB Runs Perfectly with standard bios settings. Turn Frameskip and Framelimit off if you want it to run faster. Excellent game btw!!
War Gods IMG/CCD/SUB/CUE Runs perfectly with standard bios settings Frameskip OFF.
Warriors of Might and Magic BIN/CUE Does Not Work, Freezes at the intro splash screen.
Woody Woodpecker Racing BIN/CUE Runs perfectly with standard settings, Frameskip OFF

Xmen Mutant Academy 2 MDF/MDS Doesn't Work at all!
Xmen Mutant Academy 2 IMG/CCD/SUB/CUE Runs near perfect in standard bios mode, turn Frameskip OFF for best animation. For speed you can either turn framelimit OFF or turn Disable CDDA ON. Very nice game, fighting tempo of Tekken.
FIFA Soccer 2000 BIN/CUE (CdrWin) works a bit slow but good on BIOS mode. Old frame skipping + Lazy screen updates for better speed.
International Superstar Soccer 2000 and all games derivated from it (MLS Soccer Night, Winning Eleven 2000, Winning Eleven Liga Mexicana) (all BIN/CUE with CDRWin) run a bit faster than usual, but you can make it run slightly slower if frameskip is disabled and framelimit is enabled.
NBA Live 2000 (BIN/CUE): Works perfectly on BIOS mode, HLE not tested.
International Track & Field 2000 (BIN/CUE): Loads up to the event selection screen. No video + hangs up after that on both BIOS and HLE modes.
Puma Street Soccer (BIN/CUE): (BIOS) Hangs on menu. (HLE) Game goes very fast, but it's still playable, other than that, no errors.
Pool Academy (BIN/CUE): Bios: Loads, but doesn't show graphics after the Sunsoft logo screen - HLE: Doesn't load
Championship Snooker (BIN/CUE): A bit skippy but otherwise good in BIOS mode.
The Billiards (BIN/CUE): Works perfectly on BIOS mode, haven't tested HLE.
Dragon Ball Final Bout (BIN/CUE): Works well on BIOS mode, just a bit choppy. Haven't tested with non-default settings.

What bios are you using?
SCPH1001.bin should be in the bios folder.
I can confirm that both the european (completed with PCSXbox) and the north american version works fine.
Is this the only game you're having trouble with ?
This post has been edited by Retroplay: Feb 5 2007, 06:48 PM
Well SCPH1001.bin is the only one in my bios folder. I'm not quite sure how to use a certain bios, I couldn't find any proper install/usage instructions.
The same thing happens when I use Final Fantasy 8, those are the only games I've had a chance to make image files of.
Captain Commando Ntsc Jap IMG/CCD/SUB/CUE Runs near perfect with standard bios settings except for a graphics glitch with the first boss.
Dragon Valor IMG/CCD/SUB Runs perfectly with standard bios settings.
Evil Zone Bin/Cue Runs perfectly with standard bios settings, turn Frameskip & Framelimit OFF for best in game fighting performance. Good game!`
Eggs of Steel IMG/CCD/SUB Does Not Work, tried several combos and could only get past the intro splash screens, froze before game started.
Army Men - Air Attack: Bin/Cue fired up first try in Bios Mode v1.8, played through first level, no problems
Army Men - World War: Team Assault: Bin/Cue hung on loading screen in both Bios and HLE modes v1.8
not sure if you all got Dragon Warrior 7 working, but i did. had a nrg image,so i converted to bin/cue and ftpd to the cd folder. i used the 1.8 release from "the usual places" and used following different settings:
Bios Mode:Bios file(1001 image)
Core Version:1.4
the menu stopped blinking. just go to new game, put a name and your set. i havent seen issues, but ill mess around.

hmmm...stumbled upon an issue with Dragon Warrior 7: the sound will continue even after a battle. an annoying high pitched whine. cant seem to figure out why....
NEVERMIND! changed to these settings:

hope this helps others. Ciao...
Seanp2500 in my oppinion it would be more useful if you posted more info behind your results like what format your game is in, what you needed to do if anything to get the game working properly. This is important because a game may not work at all with certain settings, but change the settings and walla it works just fine. The more info you can post per game the more useful. Just my 2 cents.
in ctr you also cannot see any crates or items placed on the ground. very hard to play.

Oh I know sotu I also meant to say I think what ur doing is great normally this is what I would do as well but I was pressed for time. I have been doing lots of stuff on xmugen /psp and between that and work it kinda hard I will try and edit my post later....just trying to help out....
gosh sotu I am reading this stuff you have done ur a monster! Consider it a compliment are you aware of the psp ps1 emu?
(newest version pcsxbox) In RE3 I have the appropriate fixes on, I play for about 5 hours and get to a nemesis battle. Then things get screwy. The sound effects and animation gets out of whack. The timer keeps ticking down (its a 2:00 timer i think) (this is right after the spanish double crosser guy gets killed and you look up and see his blood dripping.)
And I cannot then fight the boss. The timer runs out and i die. I just keep backing up (the main character). Anyone try to play this game the whole way through ? I have and I cant get past his part. Thanks.

When I first started using this emu I didn't know what anything did and the emu worked so poorly on most games it really didn't matter what you did.
But now after this emu's dark age has passed and we're now in the era of enlightenment and actually playing a considerable amount of psx games I just feel it important to do our best with our descriptions.
I just assume the lowest denominator in regards to the end users knowledge of the emu. So if we write these well enough for an idiot to understand then it should be a pretty fine list. I have results on games I no longer have but I can say X game works or X game does not work for maybe another 10-15 games. But since I really don't like being that vague I haven't posted any games without a decent description to get them working.
Anyway it's late and i've been playing H2 all night so keep doing what you're doing and just add a few words of your own to make the decription something you'd be proud of =) .... afterall it does have you name attached.
Crazy Climber 2000 BIN/CUE Game runs perfectly with standard bios settings but controls don't seem to function properly. Will continue testing. FYI game weighs less than 100 megs.
I made some tests with PcSxbox version18:
Bloody Roar 2 (bin/cue) works with default settings, but even better with framelimit OFF (the sound gets a bit choppy, but not too annoying).
Tetris Plus (both ccd/img/sub- and bin/cue-versions) works for me both in BIOS and HLEmode.
I have yet far not gotten any version of Thrill Kill to even start.

^Nevermind i figured it out,game works 98%perfect..
I actually didn't read the first page very well the last time, now I've gotten Thrill Kill to work as it should=)
Some more updates=) ..still all done with version18
Bloody Roar 1 works fine. Sound may be a bit choppy and graphics may/may not run a observable bit smoother with framelimit off/frameskip on.
Bomberman Party Edition works fine, but I didn't get it to work properly with multitap enabled (If I, in BIOS, choose all controllers as DualShocks I got the game to start and accept input from controller 1 and 2, but still not 3 and 4. In HLE I got the game to start with multitap enabled without having to change controllerconfig, but then no controllerinput at all is accepted)
Next Tetris works fine, but a tip is to first thing you do go to the options within the game and turn off the CDmusic and then save, so that you wont have to hear that horrible schreeingsound (other sounds work well).
Smurf Racer - Use "Analog" as controllersetting as it will enable you to use the joystick. Set framelimit = off and frameskipping = on for it to run a bit smoother.
WWE - Smackdown 2 Know your role, works fine, with multitap enabled, even better with frameskip on and framelimit off.
Moderators: Please delete my last post. I was about to edit it, but took to long. Here is the fixed one:

Other multiplayer notes: The multitap-option also works the way it should in Thrill Kill (bin/cue) and PoyPoy (ccd/img/sub).
Hey guys.
I'm hoping I could get a little help with trying to run King's Quest VGA under DosXbox.
My original copy of Police Quest VGA runs perfect but I'm not having the same luck with King's Quest VGA.
I really could use someone's expert advice on this and what settings or other specifics utilities are required to get the game running on my Xbox.
Thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Does it work?
Final Fantasy Anthology works fine.
Both FF V & VI is on the list:
QUOTE
Final Fantasy V only real issue is making sure to not hold throttle going into battles or you won't have any text in the menu boxes, didn't try much to fix it, so there may be a workaround even. There may have been some graphical glitches outside of that, but nothing major. -SeaLlama
Final Fantasy VI Works perfect - BIOS -big_xbox_n00bie // Old Frameskip On, Frameskip Off, Sound Timer Method - Original Gets rid of menus flickering and reduces the annoyance of the sound when you move the cursor in menus (v18) -BrokenWing Mike
Hope that helps. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Figured I would post to help anyone else out trying to get Dragon Warrior VII to work for PCSXBOX. Everything listed on the first page of this thread is correct to get the game to show the menus. I found framerate was running a bit slow in some areas and this seemed to fix it:
Make sure you unmap the throttle command as its the same as the pan view.
Old Frameskip ON
Lazy Screen Updates ON
Frameskip OFF
InuyashaSengokuBattle Fix ON
Make sure the InuyashaSengokuBattle Fix is ON, if not the game will freeze when transitioning into battles. (The first battle does not happen in the game until the 3-4 hour mark.)

Does this Playstation emulator support lightguns?
I read this:
QUOTE
Q: Will you be adding light gun support?
A: There is no light gun support in PCSX for Windows, so no.
Which would imply no...but lightgun support would be awesome if it isn't already there.
I searched and couldn't bring up anything relevant.
ePSXe for Windows does support lightguns...so maybe a look at that code could help?
Anyways just a thought.

Funny you posted that. I just played Kileak - The DNA Imparitive (U) yesterday and I can say the exact same for it. No sound in movies, but the game works flawlessly otherwise. Not like the story really matters on that first gen PSX turd anyways. Somehow it's suprisingly fun to play still after 12 years.

I just tried Um Jammer Lammy according to the settings suggested in this thread (Sound Timer Metod: Original, all other settings default), but everytime the game got stuck just as the introscenes ended and the real playing was about to begin (the chopsue-head-loading-screen). I then tried some different settings and found that this issue got solved by setting "IRQ in Decoded Sound Buf (CrashTeamRacing)" to ON.
Therefor...
UPDATE:
Um Jammer Lammy (bin/cue): Default settings + "Sound Timer Metod: Original" + "IRQ in Decoded Sound Buf (CrashTeamRacing): On" (v18)
Due to the discovery of this new soundsettings I tested if there would be some setting that would make the sound in Bubble Bobble Combo (bin/cue) run a bit smoother (I agree that the game in general runs perfect as the previous report says, but the music isn't 100%) and yes, there was. Add the very same Sound Timer Metod: Original to this game and the music will run excellent.
UPDATE:
Bubble Bobble Combo (Img/Ccd/Sub & bin/cue): Works Perfectly w/ Standard Bios Settings AND "Sound Timer Metod:" set to "Original" (v18)

My apologies to anybody here who I'm posting over your compatibilities. Some of them on this list are either wrong, outdated or some of them were even right, but didn't list the type of files used or the version of the emu used for testing. Many of these are also new entries. I will be going through all of the games that I have and testing them (moderately). I will post my findings here to be added to the compatibility table.
Ace Combat III - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfectly with standard bios settings. Played through first level with no problems. Your plane looks goofy in the replay scenes when the level ends, but that seems to be the only problem. (v18) -ressurectionx
Alundra II - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Runs perfect in Bios Mode. No sound or slowdown issues. Played through first 15 minutes of game. (v18) -ressurectionx
Area 51 - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with Standard Bios Settings, however screen is split down the middle and the right side is on the left side and vice versa. It is very annoying. I couldn't find a graphics fix to avoid this. (v18) -ressurectionx
Austin Powers Pinball - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfectly in Standard Bios Mode. Title screen and "New Line Cinema" screen seem to be blank upon some loads. If this happens, just press start when you hear the music and the game is 100% playable from there on. (v18) -ressurectionx
Ballistic - (BIN/CUE) Works Perfectly with Standard Bios Settings. (v18) -ressurectionx

Breath of Fire III - (BIN/CUE) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS Settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Breath of Fire IV - (BIN/CUE) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS Settings. Throttle will screw up some of the FMV graphics, but won't ruin the game. Use throttle at your own descretion. (v18) -ressurectionx
Broken Sword I: The Shadow of the Templars - (BIN/CUE) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS Settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Bubsy 3D (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works in BIOS mode. I never played the original, so I'm not sure if this is perfect. Gameplay seems lousy as if it is a little slow. Tried switching old frame skipping which didn't help. Turning off Framelimit makes video scenes run way too fast. (v18) -ressurectionx
Bugs Bunny & Taz Time Busters (IMG/CCS/SUB) - I wasn't able to get this to work right. Messed around with some graphics, CPU and sound settings but the video scenes play way too fast. I was able to slow them down a bit, but even just loading the game is unbearably slow then. Can probably be fixed if somebody took the time to do it. Game seems to work otherwise. (v18) -ressurectionx

might be out of sync with music. (v18) -ressurectionx

Bomberman World - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS settings. (v18) - ressurectionx
Chocobo s Magical Dungeon II - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works perfectly with Standard BIOS Settings. I've personally played this one to the end without any problems. (v18) -ressurectionx
Chronicles of the Sword - (BIN/CUE) - Graphics and video look good in Bios mode on regular settings. Weird audio glitch though that makes every line of dialogue you have in a conversation with somebody play at the same time right when you start talking. Haven't figured out a way to get this to stop happening yet. This renders the game virtually unplayable unless somebody comes up with a fix. (v18) -ressurectionx
Chrono Cross - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works in BIOS. Music seems to skip just slightly. Not enough to turn CDDA off. The game seems perfectly playable after 15 minutes. (v18) -ressurectionx

Colin McRae Rally I - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Disable CDDA to get rid of loud buzzing sound. No music during the race or menu screens then. Gameplay seems trickey, but your car is meant to drift as part of the challenge, so it may be working as designed. May also run slower than designed, but playable. (v18) -ressurectionx

Command and Conquer: Red Allert - (Allies: IMG/CCD/SUB; Soviets: IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works perfectly with standard BIOS settings. Audio on FMV sequences is out of sync with their lips, but still watchable. Watch the intro video at your own risk. Sometimes it locks up the XBox mid-play. This only happened to me on the Soviet's disk, but it might happen on either. (v18) -ressurectionx
Command & Conquer: Red Alert - Retaliation - (Allies: IMG/CCD/SUB; Soviets: IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with Standard BIOS settings. Audio on FMV sequences is out of sync with their lips, but still watchable. Game sequences play perfect. (v18) -ressurectionx
Contra: Legacy of War - (BIN/CUE) - Game works perfectly with standard BIOS settings. Game does not freeze at character select screen in 2 player mode as previously stated. (v18) -ressurectionx
Contra Adventure - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Game starts with standard BIOS settings. No music. Turn off CDDA to stop schreeching sound. There is a blank screen after you start the game where you can hear noise, but nothing happens. If you press start, the game will begin. Game plays pretty well until shortly after you defeat the first boss when there is a part where the floor is invisible and you can't tell where ground is and where the holes are. 2nd boss then is severley graphically glitchy. I didn't play past this part. (v18) -ressurectionx
Cool Boarders 2001 - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Turn off CDDA to avoid screeching in some menu screens. Sound works on intro and during race and even in some of the menu screens. Seems to play very well. Freezes in HLE mode. (v18) -ressurectionx
Cool Boarders I: Extreme Snowboarding - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. I couldnt see any problems with speed. Sound is good. (v18) -ressurectionx
Cool Boarders II - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. Some minor audio glitches, but nothing serious. (v18) -ressurectionx
Cool Boarders III - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. Freezes in HLE mode. (v18) -ressurectionx

Covert Ops: Nuclear Dawn - (Disk 1: IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB; Disk 2: BIN/CUE) Works with standard BIOS settings. Speech isn't perfectly synched with the FMV sequences. Seems perfectly fine during play though. (v18) -ressurectionx
CCrash Bandicoot I - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. Very minor frameskip and audio skip. (v18) -ressurectionx
Crash Bandicoot III: Warped - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Audio does not synch with video on the FMV sequences, but they are watchable. Gameplay more than satisfactory. (v18) -ressurectionx
Crash Bash - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Croc I: Legend of the Gobbos - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Gameplay seems just a little slow. Intro movie glitches. (v18) -ressurectionx
Croc II - (BIN/CUE) - Does not work with standard BIOS or HLE settings. Game "freezes" when you reach a scene on a beach with a chair under an umbrella. Nothing happens, but you can pause and bring up the options menu which won't do you any good. Does not freeze the XBox though. (v18) -ressurectionx
Crusaders of Might and Magic - (BIN/CUE) - Runs too slow in BIOS mode. No way anybody would wait for those load times. (v18) -ressurectionx
D - (3 Disks - ALL: IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - This game playes REALLY slow and but there is no sound effects or voices, just ambient backround. Game constantly freezes, though the ambient noise keeps playing. (v18) -ressurectionx
Danger Girl - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with very minor sound delay in standard BIOS mode. The night vision goggles do work. The screen turns white on you when you are near a light. This is not a glitch. Gameplay seems pretty smooth, but may not be 100%. (v18) -ressurectionx
Darkstalkers I - Game works with Standard BIOS settings. Audio is very choppy in the intro and less choppy in the menus. Seems fine during gameplay though. The game itself allows 3 speed settings and they are all playable. (v18) -ressurectionx
Darkstalkers III - (BIN/CUE) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS settings. Only glitch I've seen is the game slowing down a bit when the Sasquach uses one of his graphic intensive attacks. (v18) -ressurectionx
Deception III: Dark Delusion - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works great with Standard BIOS settings. If there is supposed to be audio in the FMV, there isn't. Game can get a little slow when certain larger traps are sprung, but otherwise this game appears to be fully playable. (v18) -ressurectionx
Descent Maximum - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS settings. FMV looks great. (v18) -ressurectionx
Descent - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Does not work. Freezes at "Loading" screen after first FMV of a new game in both BIOS and HLE modes. Only used default settings though so there may be a fix. Use Decent Maximum as it plays perfectly. (v18) -ressurectionx
Destrega - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS settings. FMV looks good and played several rounds and everything plays good. (v18) -ressurectionx.

Digimon World I - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works Perfectly with Standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx

Discworld II: Mortality Bytes - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works with Standard BIOS settings with some graphical glitches. Title screen is blank and some layering gets pretty glitchy in the game. Perfectly playable though. (v18) -ressurectionx
Disney: The Little Mermaid - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works Perfectly with Standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Driver I: You Are The Wheelman - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works with Standard BIOS settings. Game froze up on me when I lost the first underground parking garage tests. (v18) -ressurectionx
Driver II - The Wheel Man Is Back - (BIN/CUE) Locks up when you press start to get to the main menu in both BIOS and HLE modes. Unplayable with stanard settings on either mode. (v18) -ressurectionx
Echo Night - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works Perfect with Standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
ECW Anarchy Rulz - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV sequences are choppy, but the audio doesn't skip. I have a hard time believing this game didn't have music during the matches or the wrestler intros. If it didn't, gameplay is 100%. (v18) -ressurectionx
ECW Hardcore Revolution - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. I have a hard time believing this game didn't have music during the matches or the wrestler intros. If it didn't, gameplay is 100%. (v18) -ressurectionx
Ehrgeiz - (BIN/CUE) - Works with Standard BIOS settings. FMV intro looks great. Game plays fast, but refresh rate is poor. Sound seems good. (v18) -ressurectionx
Evil Dead Hail to the King - (Both Disks: IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works perfect with Standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Extreme Go Kart Racing - Works with standard BIOS settings. Game runs a little slow, but not so slow that it is unplayable. Switching to old frameskipping seems to make it better. Music skips slightly on intro and menu screens. Annoying buzzing during race is actually the go kart noise. Disabling CDDA will not get rid of the noise. Not sure if the emulation on it is bad or it was programmed to be that annoying originally. (v18) - ressurectionx
Extreme Pinball - Does not work in either BIOS or HLE modes with standard settings. Also tried switching to old frameskipping and turning the frameskip and frame limit off with no luck. Strange thing is that when a table finally does load up, it seems the only way to get the game to move is if you're holding down the throttle button the whole time. But then it plays too fast. Unplayable unless somebody comes up with a fix. (v18) -ressurectionx
Fear Effect I - (All Disks: BIN/CUE) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Fear Effect II: Retro Helix - (Disks 1,3,4 IMG/CCD/SUB; Disk 2: BIN/CUE) Works perfect with Standard BIOS settings (v18) -ressurectionx
Future Cop L.A.P.D. - (BIN/CUE) NO. Audio skips so bad you hear double with standard BIOS or HLE settings. Freezes when you get to a screen where it says "press start or x to skip video. (v18) -ressurectionx
G Darius (J) - (BIN/CUE) - Works with Standard BIOS settings. Too choppy at some points to play though. I didn't test any other settings on this game. (v18) -ressurectionx
G-Police I - (Both Disks: BIN/CUE) - Works with Standard BIOS settings. Choppy animation. I did not try any alternate graphics settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Galaga: Destination Earth - (IMG/CCD/SUB) Disable CDDA audio to remove screeching sound. Fully playable otherwise. Good game even without the sound. (v18) -ressurectionx
Gauntlet Legends - (IMG/CUE/CCD) - Use HLE mode. Standard settings. It takes a long time to load anything but it's much worse in BIOS. Works with standard BIOS settings. Takes forever to load whenever the loading screen comes up. Virtually unplayable because of this with standard BIOS settings. I've heard that this game originally gained noteriety for it's insane loading times, so it probably plays at near 100% in HLE mode. Don't forget to use that throttle. (v18) -ressurectionx

Just a few notes I'd like to leave about my last two posts, and the remainder of the posts I put up for compatability.
1. Unless stated otherwise (with a (J) or (PAL)), these games are all US games.
2. Unless stated otherwise, I only tried the games with standard settings in BIOS mode and HLE mode. I didn't bother trying HLE mode if I was happy with the performance of the game in BIOS mode. I may not have marked down every time I used a graphics fix with all the games I'm working on, but at least you know if the game is red that I tried it in both BIOS and HLE with the standard settings.
3. Unless stated otherwise, I played each game generally through the first FMV or two and played some of the actual action to come to my decision on performance. This usually was anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes depending upon how much I care about the game. I did NOT only play these games to the title screen and quit.
4. Some of you may not agree with the color system that I use. Green for me is not 100% playable compared to the Playstation, but it means that it is an enjoyable experience playing the game, even if it has minor sound or graphics issues. Blue for me was, for example, if the CDDA had to be turned off and you had to play a music-less game. That or some major graphical glitches, but the game remains playable. Red either does not start up in either mode period, has some weird memory card or dual shock controller hang-up, or is just so slow that it is completely unenjoyable.
5. I have agreed with everything that sotu has put on this board up to this point. The only differences we have had is if we have different images of the file (ex: BIN/CUE, IMG/SUB/CCD).

what settings should I use to run Mortal Kombat 4 (bin/cue)??
the xbox crashes at "PSX loading" screen with core 1.6, default settings (v18)
Lode Runner Extra - (BIN/CUE) - Bios mode, Switch Framerate settings OFF. Turn on "CPU Interpreter" and "Sengoku battle", Disable CDDA (is optional but leave it OFF), XA sound (optional). Game runs fast and is 100% playable, may hear crackling sounds during the menu, turn off music ingame options to fix. (v18)
version tested: SLUS-00557
...discard above post, this is final settings, enjoy:
Lode Runner - (BIN/CUE) - Bios mode, Set all Graphic Fixes (OFF), CPU Interpreter (ON), InuYasha Sengoku Battle fix (ON) Disable CDDA (ON), XA sound (ON). 100% playable @ 30fps (v18)
Lode Runner Extra - (BIN/CUE) - works with the same settings also.
Lode Runner 2 Superlite - (BIN/CUE) - does not work, freezes after LR logo.
Is this thread still being updated? I see that none of my entries have made it on the compatability list yet. No rush. I understand that this can be pretty low priority for people when real life gets in the way. I was just wondering.
Currently I am creating a microsoft excel spreadsheet with my PCSXBox findings. If this thread doesn't get updated anymore, when I'm through I will create a new thread with all of my compatibility findings.
Thanks
O very cool ressurectionx (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
actually one thing I noticed is "InuYasha Sengoku Battle fix" is a magic switch, not only worked for loderunner but also magically fixed the game menu in Bubble Bobble beforehand it would not start. So I would recommend everyone to try the fix with games that don't load the menu screens. Enjoy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Thanks loderunner. I'll keep that in mind. If you see any games that I've tested that have problems that you have and would like to try, at least you know beforehand if it will freeze your XBox or not. Having to get up all the time to hard reset the XBox is the most annoying thing for me, testing all of these games.
maybe I will let you in on a little secret.. (next time pcsx crashes)
hold down BOTH triggers and select, start
so how do you like your new reset button (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Heh... yeah. I know about that one man. Beautiful feature.
I guess you never expereienced the "Black Screen of Death" before, huh? Nothing to do but drag your lazy butt off the couch and do a manual reset then.
Things could be worse though. I could be spending a half hour blowing on a cartridge and slamming it around inside the little gray box with my controller still.

It doesn't look like any of my findings have been updated on the list recently. I'm not sure if this thread is no longer being updated or not. I've gotten to the letter L on the games that I have. If the updates haven't been applied here by the time I'm finished, I will start a new topic with them. It's too much work posting them all here with the colors if they're just going to get buried.
I'll be back.....
15-sep is a long time ago (for compat update),
you keep at it resurrectionx, people are still reading this thread.
cheers for your hardwork!
Compatibility List Updated--- 21-Nov-07
thanks for the update deathx88!
can someone test the game "in the hunt" please?
Interesting note about Legend of Legaia compatibility. It seems that the game only freezes if the main character learns a new hyper-art in battle. From my testing thus far, the other characters can learn and use hyper-arts just fine. This is the only issue I have found playing this game, although it is very annoying. Playing with frameskip and framelimit turned off improves the framerate considerably, although the gamespeed varies during gameplay. Using HLE makes the game more stable also.

I've had "in the hunt" working, a rip though no music, but game seems to play ok, bit of slowdown, but I think original has a lot of slowdown anyway
Tales of Destiny 2 works pretty well on PCSXbox. The sound hiccups got on my nerves during FMV sequences, and there are too many hiccups during the game for my liking. You can get the sound running very well by turning XA sound off, disabling XA sound processing, and setting reverb and interpolation to none/fastest. The sound hiccups happen infrequently, and are barely noticeable with these settings. The downside with XA sound disabled, is there will be limited voice effects in battle, and no sound during cut scenes. You can always enable it prior to viewing cut scenes. Aside from that, I just used the settings posted here, works 97% very well.
Thanks for updating it deathx88. Didn't know if you were still around. Don't see as much action on here as I did a year ago when I started modding.
I'm on the letter L now, so I've got quite a few more to update since the last time. I'm not by any means testing them all out, just ones I liked or that I thought me or somebody I knew might like. I may one day get to testing them all, but as anybody knows who has taken the time to do any of this, it's a lot of work and it takes for ever. Being able to post the results somewhere for others is nice because it makes it all more worthwhile and helps get me a bit more motivated.
But.... even posting all of those results here and making them the right color takes quite a long time and I'm not feeling up to any more Playstation at the moment. I'll probably get more done this weekend and post here.
EDIT: Looks like the last one I've done right now is Lethal Enforcers I & II and the last one I posted here was Gauntlet Legends. I've also tested some other games here with different and the same results as what have been posted before. I'll just put them all up here.

I have seen on the compatibility list that Jumping Flash 1 & 2 don't work,
but has anyone tried on a newer version of Pcsxbox? This game was awesome
back in the day....
Jumping Flash I and II work, but they play so slow that I took them off my XBox. There may be a fix for it, but I couldn't figure it out.
Kinda dumb considering it was one of the first games available for PSX. You think there would be no problem.
Sorry man
Thanks for the info anyway Dude....

Metal Gear Solid BIOS Mode, Core Version: 1.5, Lazy Screen Updates ON, Use Old Frame Skipping ON, Frame Skip OFF, Frame Limit ON; SPU Fixes: Wait CPU Action ON, Sound Timer Method ORIGINAL -- PCSXBOX v16, Works almost perfect, some slowdown during cut-scenes, No jitter during Codec Convos- GMSKel
It's working perfectly on my Xbox until the fight against Ocelot. In the middle of the cut scenes there is some kind of movie, not a game scene. It's a real movie showing nuclear weapons.
The game get stucked in this part. Someone experienced the same?
Hey everybody. Here's another update.
As always, I only played a few minutes unless otherwise stated, and if the game locks up at some point later I probably don't know that. Hopefully any you're trying to play will play through to the end. If anybody plays one to the end, it would be great to let us know here and we can add that note to the list.
Gex I - (BIN/CUE) - IMG/CCD/CUE/SUB Was used by -suto - Works perfectly with standard BIOS settings. I can't figure out what the "Run" button is. It doesn't seem to work. I played the first level and the FMV in the beginning works great. (v18) -ressurectionx
GEX II: Enter The Gecko - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works in BIOS mode with "Old Frame Skipping" Turned "ON". I can't figure out what the "Run" button is. Seems to be a bit jerky, but the PSX may have been that way back in the day on the 3D games. FMV looks great. I played through the first level on this game. (v18) -ressurectionx
GEX III: Deep Cover Gecko - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works in BIOS mode with "Old Frame Skipping" Turned "ON". I can't figure out what the "Run" button is on this one either. Seems to be a bit jerky, but the PSX may have been that way back in the day on the 3D games. FMV looks great. Played through the training level. (v18) - ressurectionx
Ghost In The Shell - (BIN/CUE) - Works in BIOS mode sort of. Video sequence cartoons look great. Menu flashes repeatedly to black and back. Gameplay is the same. Screen keeps flashing as if you were at two different spots at once. Tried the Inuyasha fix, and also old frameskipping with lazy screen updates. Does not fix the problem. Doesn't work at all in HLE mode. (v18) -ressurectionx
Gran Turismo I - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works perfect in BIOS mode with Frameskip: Off, Old Frameskipping: On, Lazy Screen Updates: On and Reverb: None/Fastest. FMV looks great. Played two races. Controls seem a little touchy, but then again, I've never been good at driving games. (v18) -ressurectionx
Gran Turismo II - (Arcade Disk: IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB; Simulation Disk: IMG/CCD/SUB) - Plays way too slow to be enjoyable in BIOS mode. I even tried to turn frameskipping off, frame limit off, old frameskipping on, lazy screen updates on and Reverb: None/Fastest. These definately made the game faster, but it's still way too slow. Game freezes up before race in HLE mode. (v18) ressurectionx
Guardians Crusade - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works Perfectly with standard BIOS settings. Minor graphical glitch makes screen flash every once and a while. Perfectly playable though. (v18) - ressurectionx
Guilty Gear - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works perfectly with standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Gundam Battle Assault - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfectly with standard BIOS settings. Seems like it may be a little slow. (v18) -ressurectionx
Heart of Darkness - (2 Disks - Both: BIN/CUE) - Works perfectly with standard BIOS settings. Very cool game. (v18) -ressurectionx
Hellboy: Asylum Seeker - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Title screen and start menu is black. I don't know how to get them to show up. FMV sequences look good. Game seems to play fine though once you start it. (v18) -ressurectionx
Herc's Adventures - (BIN/CUE) - Works Perfectly with standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx

Hugo: The Evil Mirror - (BIN/CUE) - Game works fine on both BIOS and HLE mode. Only problem is there is some major graphical glitches with the enemies. Sometimes they disappear.

Incredible Crisis - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. (v18) -ressurectionx
Intelligent Qube - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. During the 7th level, the game starts acting funny and your character will freeze or move uncontrolably in one direction. Because of this, I have been unable to beat the 7th level. Pretty sure this is a glitch with the emu as I don't think there is anything that I'm doing that would make the game behave that way. (v18) -ressurectionx
Inuyasha: Sengoku Battle - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Runs with standard BIOS settings and standard HLE settings, but get's stuck in the first mission where you are to destroy a boulder in 30 seconds.

Kensei: Sacred Fist - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Plays slow and music skips though, during FMV and play. Tried old frameskipping, lazy screen updates, but it didn't fix the problem. Turning Framelimit off helps a little but FMV is too fast then. (v18) -ressurectionx
Kickboxing - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Plays slow and music skips though, during FMV and play. Tried old frameskipping, lazy screen updates, but it didn't fix the problem. Turning framelimit off seems to help a little. (v18) -ressurectionx

Kingsley s Adventure - (IMG/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Old Frameskipping on, frameskipping off seems to make it a little faster. Perfectly playable. (v18) -ressurectionx
KISS Pinball - (BIN/CUE) - Game is very glitchy in either BIOS or HLE. Title screens and menu screens are garbled and unnavigatable. It is possible to play the pinball if you press select and guess your way around the menu, but the gameplay is pretty lousy, otherwise, I would just mark this game as unplayable. (v18) -ressurectionx.
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver - (ISO) - Frameskip OFF, old frameskip ON, Throttle Method FIXED. Works better this way, game runs a bit slower than it's supposed to but it's not as choppy as it is with default settings. Some of the FMVs do not run fast enough and the speech is garbled. You can use the throttle button and speed it up and speech will sound good then. (v18) -Ressurectionx
Legend of Mana - (IMG) - Works perfect with Standard BIOS settings. Played through the first boss fight. My only problem is that on some surfaces your characters footsteps sound real annoying, but game seems to play perfectly otherwise. (v18) -ressurectionx

Lethal Enforcers I & II - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Game seems to work perfectly with Standard BIOS settings. Who wants to play a gun game with a controller though? Didn't test this with a lightgun because I have HDTV and I'm not even aware of how to use a lightgun. (v18) -ressurectionx
Loaded - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Gameplay is perfect in with Standard BIOS settings. You must turn CDDA off though, so there is no music during play and the intro song by the band Pop Will Eat Itself doesn't play. I love this game and it's a shame I can't get it to work without the music. It's just not the same. I tried everything. Played all the way through the first level. (v18) -ressurectionx
Looney Tunes: Sheep Raider - (BIN/CUE) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. Cutscenes lok good and sound matches well. Press X sometimes in the loading screen if it is hanging and you will start the level. Remember to use the R1 & R2 buttons (top triggers) in the beginning to move the cameras around. I thought the game was freezing up on me, but it works just fine. Played through the training level without any problems. (v18) -ressurectionx
Looney Tunes Racing - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Turn frameskip off, old frameskip on and lazy screen updates on. Haven't been able to get what I assume to be a video sequence in the beginning with an annoucer speaking to show. The voice plays, but the screen stays black. Loading times between levels is insanely long so don't forget to throttle. Played through one race and I have to say that as far as the gameplay goes, I'm pretty impressed with how fluid it plays. Many of the racing games on PSX are very slightly to very choppy and you don't get any of that here. Too bad the rediculous loading times makes this game unplayable to me, because it is a pretty fun spin-off of Mario Kart. (v18) -ressurectionx
Lunar I: Silver Star Story - (2 Disks - BOTH: ISO) - Works good with Standard BIOS settings. Also turn lazy screen updates on, old frame skipping off, and frameskip off, to improve the voices during cutscenes. Voices skip VERY slightly then, but the game seems perfect otherwise. Played about 15 minutes through most of the ice cave in the beginning. (v18) -ressurectionx

Maximum Force - (BIN/CUE) - This game plays with standard BIOS settings but has major graphical glitches. This game plays just like Area 51 and for me has the exact same graphics problems that Area 51 had.

Medal of Honor - (BIN/CUE) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. It's been mentioned there is some slowdown, but I can't notice it. FMV and voices are great. Couldnt beat first level myself, but I think that's because it's real dark and I coudn't see where I had to go and not a problem with the game. (v18) -ressurectionx
Medal of Honor: Underground - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. I put old frameskipping on, lazy screen updates on and old frameskip off, but I don't know for sure if it made it better.

Riven: The Sequel To Myst - (5 Disks - ALL: ISO) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Looks good though, and seems to do what it is supposed to be doing. Voices don't seem to sync up well, but it doesn't look like it would affect gameplay at all. UPDATE: Game froze for me when I sat on some weird looking throne in a cave and I operated the lever. XBox didn't freeze though. This also happened when I tried HLE mode. Not sure now if this is fully playable or not. (v18) -ressurectionx
Roadsters - (BIN/CUE) - Playable with standard BIOS settings. Turn on old frameskipping and lazy screen updates and it plays pretty smooth. Music skips and repeats. I couldn't fix the music. Probably better off playing another racing game overall. (v18) -ressurectionx
Robo Pit II - (BIN/CUE) - Plays great with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks great. Gameplay is smooth. Played through first battle. (v18) -ressurectionx
Robotron X - (BIN/CUE) - Does not play in BIOS mode because it is extremely fast and you can't even tell what's going on. HLE mode freezes XBOX. (v18) -ressurectionx
Rock'em Sock'em Robots Arena - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings use old frameskipping and lazy screen updates. Turn off CDDA because it skips and game plays pretty well then. (v18) -ressurectionx
Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012 - (BIN/CUE) - Works enough to be playable with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks great and voices are good. Disable CDDA though because the music skipps during gameplay. Many of the menu screens won't show for me, so I have to guess at what I'm doing all the time. Makes it very difficult to buy things between levels. Doesn't work at all in HLE. Definately worth playing though. Fun little Twisted Metal clone. (v18) -ressurectionx
Roll Away - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. Played about 10 levels. Fun little puzzle game. (v18) -ressurectionx
Roll Cage I - (BIN/CUE) - Plays in BIOS mode. Disable CDDA to speed up the game because music skips anyways. Gameplay is smooth. Loading in the beginning of the game just to get to the title screen takes insanely long, for seemingly no reason at all, so I'd probably just skip this one and play Rollcage II which plays great. (v18) -ressurectionx
Roll Cage: Stage 2 - (BIN//CUE) - Plays well with standard BIOS settings. Disable CDDA to speed up the game because music skips anyway FMV's look great. Smooth gameplay. Played a few races. (v18) -ressurectionx
RPG Maker - (BIN/CUE) - Works sort of with standard BIOS settings. I didn't play this much because it didn't seem nearly as cool as it sounded. There may be problems with a few of the menus, or maybe nothing is supposed to be there because I didn't make something yet, at parts. Hard to describe. I'll say for now it works though unless somebody else really tests it out and says otherwise. Won't freeze your XBox or anything. (v18) -ressurectionx
Rugrats: Search For Reptar - (BIN/CUE) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. Played one level without any trouble. Voice can be scratchy, but the game hardly talks at all so no big deal. (v18) -ressurectionx
Runabout II - (BIN/CUE) - Plays with standard BIOS settings. Menus are terrible and you have to guess on a lot of selections. Gameplay is great though otherwise. (v18) -ressurectionx
Saga Frontier I - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. Music plays super fast though so put on the Inuyasha Battle fix and the best sound settings and when you start it up the music sounds good. Played through beginning and several battles. (v18) -ressurectionx
Saga Frontier II - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. Played about 10 minutes. (v18) -ressurectionx
Saiyuki: Journey West - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Music plays to fast and skips in FMV and some story sequences. Could not find a proper fix. Weird text glitch while you're talking where it overwrites previous text. Other than that, gameplay seems really good and music doesn't mess up while you're battling. It looks like a pretty good Final Fantasy Tactics clone. Played the first two battles. (v18) -ressurectionx
Samurai Showdown: Warrior Rage - (BIN/CUE) - Works with Standard BIOS settings. Menus are all bad and titile screen is bad. Hard to navigate where you want to go. Scenes between fights are all garbled too. (v18) -ressurectionx
Samurai Showdown III - (IMG/CUE/CCD) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. Use old frameskipping and turn lazy screen updates on. Played several fights without any problems. (v18) -ressurectionx

Sled Storm - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Disable CDDA to get rid of buzzing because music doesn't work. Gameplay is smooth and voices are good. Menu screens tend to flash a strobe effect. (v18) -ressurectionx
Sorcerer's Maze - (BIN/CUE) - Plays perfect with standard BIOS settings. Played 5 or 6 levels with no problems at all. Arkanoid clone game. (v18) -ressurectionx
Soul Blade - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks great. Old Frameskipping and lazy screen updates on. Disable XA sound processing. Now this game will play at 100% speed. Played several battles without any problems with these settings. (v18) -ressurectionx

South Park Rally - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Theme song will play but the screen is stuck on the guy singing. You can just press the button and skip it though. Disable CDDA because the music in race will skip anyways and it will play smooth. Played 2 races with no other problems. (v18) -ressurectionx

Speed Punks - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Turned on frameskipping, old frameskipping and lazy screen updates. Also turned off CDDA and XA audio. Now the game runs at probably 90% so it is playable. (v18) -ressurectionx
Spice World - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Videos are okay unless you use the throttle. (v18) -ressurectionx
Spyro the Dragon I - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works perfect with standard BIOS settings. Played for about 30 minutes with no problems. Very smooth gameplay and voices sync nicely. (v18) -ressurectionx

Spyro III: Year of the Dragon - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. CDDA doesn't work so you have to turn it off. Voices are all screwed up. Gameplay otherwise seems alright. Only played about 2 minutes. (v18) -ressurectionx

Apparently, somebody deleted my last post. It was everything from Strider II to Zoop. It took me over a half hour to get all the games from my excel spreadsheet and post them here and put the color on them.
I was going to start posting my new findings (I'm going through more games through the alphabet that I skipped the first time), but I don't feel like doing it now. My last post was taken down without anybody saying why and I don't feel like investing that time if it's going to be thrown away for no reason.
Good luck death....
If you or anybody else would like a copy of my spreadsheet when it's done, just PM me and I'll get it to you. That way you can do this if you want because I'm mad now and I'm through with getting bullied around here for no reason.

I'm one of the mods for this specific forum and I'm guy that added that last batch of games instead of deathx (haven't seen him around in a long while). You can tell by the "edited by" text on the bottom of the posts. Sorry about the delay on those... I've been very busy in recent months and haven't had many block of time to spend on the forum... usually just time to swing by for a couple of minutes.
Anyway, I didn't delete your post and don't know why anyone else would. In fact, the ability to delete individual posts in not a power granted to standard forum moderators. At best we can edit your post and remove all the text, but not delete the post itself. Other than that our only options are to delete or hide the entire thread. Basically, only a head moderator would have the ability to do that and, again, I don't think any them would do that. It almost certainly had to be some sort of error with the forum software.
I'll try to get your latest updates posted soon.

Thanks for that reply Thraxen. I trust you. You've always done right by me here.
Weirdest thing though. I saw the post. It was on the 59th page and about 10 hours later when I came here to put another post, the last post disappeared. I'll probably post more later. If you want my compatibility spreadsheet when I'm done, I'll send it to you on email. Let me know.
Parasite Eve II - Bin/Cue, v 1.8, Bios Mode, Parasite Eve Fix On, everything else standard.
I may have forgot to to post this in a couple of my last posts but everything I have tested has been in Bin/Cue format.
Here's the next round, including what we had lost in my previous post. This time I've saved the post on my hard drive in case something screwy happens to it again. Should probably have more soon.
Action Man: Operation Extreme - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds good. Gameplay is great. There are no words to describe the awesomeness of Action Man. Download it and play it now. Beat the desert level (about an hour worth of play). (v18) -ressurectionx
Akuji The Heartless - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskipping on, Lazy Screen Updates on. Funny thing is, the version I have seems to be the game and a demo disk as well. Music plays fine during the gameplay and FMVs, but there is the static buzzing at the initial menu before you choose the game. No need to turn off the CDDA once you get past the menu. I recommend saving the game right after you select Akuji from the "in-game" menu. FMV looks and sounds great. Gameplay is a little choppy, but not too bad. Messed around on the first level a bit before quitting. (v18) -ressurectionx
Activision Classic Games - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Menu has some slowdown problems in actions and music. Game also acts flakey when you quit a game to get back out to the menu. Games themselves play good though. The sound is off on the games though.... trust me. I've been around long enough to have played Seaquest on the Atari 2600. There is something just not satisfying about shooting down a submarine with the garbage sound butchering going on in this game. Just get a 2600 emulator if you need to play these games. (v18) -ressurectionx
Alien Resurrection - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great. To make the voice not echo during gameplay, I put XA Speed Fix on, Interpolation Cubic/Slow, Wait CPU Action on, IRQ in Decoded Sound Buf on, and Sound Timer Method Original. Gameplay seems very smooth. Didn't get too far before dying twice and gave up. (v18) -ressurectionx
Alien Trilogy - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great. Options menu doesn't seem to work at all for me. Sound in-game works, but skips just enough to be annoying to me. Your call if you want to leave it on or not. Played about 5 minutes. (v18) -ressurectionx
American Pool - (BIN/CUE) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. Gameplay and music are smooth. No problems for me in 2 matches. (v18) -ressurectionx
Apocalypse - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Game plays with standard BIOS settings. USE BIOS VERSION 1.4 or you get horrible graphics glitches during gameplay. FMV looks and sounds great. Played about 10 minutes without a problem, and the graphics look great with BIOS ver 1.4. (v18) -ressurectionx
Arcade Party Pak - (IMG) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Okay
gotta admit, as far as the arcade packs go, this is a pretty good collection. Smash TV, Rampage, Super Sprint, 720, KLAX and Toobin'. Why burn up so much space on your XBox for a few arcades though? Get MAME. UPDATE: Only some of the games work. Toobin' seems to be fine, but Smash TV plays so fast that it's unplayable. (v18) -ressurectionx
Arcades Greatest Hits: Atari Collection I - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great, with only some minor sound glitches . Gameplay is fine, but only 5 games??! LOL
don't waste your time. Get MAME. (v18) -ressurectionx
Arcades Greatest Hits: Atari Collection II - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great . Gameplay is fine, but only 6 games??! This one is actually almost worth keeping, but I can't really justify the space taken up on the Box for only 6 games. Paperboy, Road Blasters, Marble Madness, Gauntlet, Crystal Castles, Millipede.... up to you. Get MAME. (v18) -ressurectionx
Arcades Greatest Hits: Midway Collection II - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - FMV looks and sounds great . Gameplay is fine. Moon Patrol, Joust II, Burger Time, Spy Hunter.... I was excited with the selection until I picked a game and it froze up on me. None of them seem to work with the standard settings on BIOS or HLE. Boo Hoo... Get MAME. (v18) -ressurectionx
Arcades Greatest Hits: Williams Collection - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great . Gameplay is fine. Wow! 6 games... or 5 when you consider that Defender I and Defender II are basically the exact same game. Don't waste your time. Get MAME. (v18) -ressurectionx
Armored Core: Master of Arena - (2 Disks - Both: IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskipping on, Lazy Screen Updates on. FMV looks and sounds great. Gameplay is pretty smooth and voices sound great during game. Played about 5 minutes. (v18) -ressurectionx
Armored Core I - (IMG) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskipping on, Lazy Screen Updates on. FMV looks and sounds great. Gameplay and voices are smooth. Played through first battle. (v18) -ressurectionx

Army Men: Air Attack II - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sound great. Played through the first level and gameplay is great. Only problem is that the boxes sometimes fly all over the place when you go to pick them up. This may be a problem if you need to transport something like on the first level of Air Attack I. Didn't have to on the first level of this game though. (v18) -ressurectionx
Army Men: Green Rogue - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sound great, though it's a little out of sync. Was marked before as unworking because it freezes after the first FMV sequence at a "Loading" screen. I thought so too, but you just have to wait about 30 seconds with the throttle down for it to load. (TIP: Savestate after loading, and then you never have to see it again.) Gameplay is a little choppy but nothing too serious. (v18) -ressurectionx
Army Men: Sarge's Heroes I - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sound great, though it's a little out of sync. Was marked before as unworking because it freezes after the first FMV sequence at a "Loading" screen. I thought so too, but you just have to wait about 3 minutess with the throttle down for it to load. (TIP: Savestate after loading each level, and then you never have to see it again.) Gameplay seems fine, but not good enough for me to warrant these insane loading times. (v18) -ressurectionx
Army Men: Sarge's Heroes II - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskip on, Lazy Screen Updates on. FMV looks and sound great, though it's a little out of sync. Loading times much better than first game. Played through the first level and gameplay is pretty good, but a little choppy. (v18) -ressurectionx
Army Men: World War - Final Front (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskip on, Lazy Screen Updates on. FMV looks and sound great. Loading after intro FMV takes about 30 seconds while with throttle, so savestate afterwards so you don't have to see it again. Played through the first level and gameplay is pretty good. A little skippy. (v18) -ressurectionx
Army Men: World War - Land Sea & Air - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskip on, Lazy Screen Updates on. FMV looks and sound great. Loading time takes about 30 seconds so savestate after the initial load. Level loads are quick with throttle. Played through the first level and gameplay is good. A little choppy though. (v18) -ressurectionx
Army Men: World War - Team Assault - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sound great, though it's a little out of sync. This game does load, but you need to have the throttle down for about a minute, so savestate afterwards so you don't have to wait again. Loading before levels is quick. Played through the first level and gameplay is good. A little choppy. (v18) -ressurectionx
Army Men: World War - (ISO) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskip on, Lazy Screen Updates on. FMV looks and sound great, though it's a little out of sync.

Atari Anniversary Edition Redux - (BIN/CUE) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. Whatever is happening before the title screen is not shown because of a blank screen. Games work great. Who want's to play them on the Playstation though? Get MAME. (v18) -ressurectionx
Attack of the Saucerman - (BIN/CUE) - Doesn't work with standard settings in BIOS or HLE. Both modes freeze the Xbox right away with a black screen. Didn't try any other settings. (v18) -ressurectionx

Ballerburg: Castle Chaos - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great. Menus work fine. Game seems to play alright.

Batman & Robin - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Frameskip on, Old Frameskip on, Lazy Screen Updates on. FMV looks and sounds great. Plays pretty well

Bubble Bobble: Featuring Rainbow Islands - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great. Games work perfect too. Shouldn't you be playing this on MAME though? Who cares that there is a new version of Rainbow Islands? That game is horrible. Sometimes during the enhanced version, you lose control of your character anyhow. (v18) -ressurectionx

Die Hard Trilogy II - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Game works with standard BIOS settings. Turn on frameskipping, Old Frameskipping and Lazy Screen Updates. FMV looks and sounds great.

Wipeout III - (BIN/CUE) - Works great with standard BIOS settings. Very smooth gameplay. Only very occasionaly will the audio hiccup. Played 2 races (v18) -ressurectionx
Wipeout XL - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. You have to use the Inuyasha fix to slow down the game to a playable speed but it's too slow now. Still playable, but more a "Wipeout for beginners" speed. (v18) -ressurectionx

WWF: Attitude - (IMG/CCD/SUB) - Works with standard BIOS settings. Voices and game seem to play well. It's pretty hard to control, but then again I just suck at wrestling games. (v18) -ressurectionx
WWF: In Your House - (IMG/CUE/CCD/SUB) - Works somewhat with standard BIOS settings. Game will play but music and background are all messed up. Not worth playing, in my opinion. (v18) -ressurectionx

There's a version 19 now???? What the heck am I testing all these games with v18 for?
I'm split right now..... Part of me wants to know that the emulator has been updated again, but the other part of me doesn't want to know that I've tested like 600 games with an old emulator.
The only difference from v18 to v19 is that XPort updated the GUI.
So don't worry about it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Hey everbody. I'm writing this from work now. My comp finally died a horrible horrible death. Fortunately I was able to pull the excel spreadsheets for PCSXBox and MAME testing using another computer, but after formatting and reinstalling windows because of a virus I got the other day, the PC didn't boot up at all. I ordered a new CPU & Mobo yesterday and hope to have it by Wednesday so I can get back to work on this. I'm kinda excited about having a fast PC to do all of this work now. Ever try zipping and unzipping 500+ MB files thousands of times on a 900MHz processor before? It sucks. I've had a table fan blowing on my processor for about 6 months now to keep the PC from overheating, so I'm kinda glad this is forcing me to finally upgrade to a CPU/Mobo that was made this century.
I'm just hoping now that none of my other hard drives with the games were damaged. We'll see on Wednesday.
So my updates here are going to be delayed a little. I was hoping to get a lot of this work done this weekend, but it will have to wait.
Have a good one.

any working configuration for ODDWORLD????
Hey Sirxxx,
As far as I know, there is no working configuration for either Oddworld games. They are both playable (at least for the first 10 or so minutes I tested), but if you've got it that far you've probably noticed the weird graphical glitches.
QUOTE
Abes Exoddus Yes, HLE didnt work, BIOS = worked but there some strange montion bug. -jizzlobber
Abe's Oddyssee Must run through bios. Yes, game works full speed and playable, BUT severe graphic redraw issues (ghosting effects) -falz
Any entries I've seen in here before I tested the games said the same thing. Good luck.
Normally I would not post information regarding roms, but both of these, are simply too good to not let people know about and besides I don't see what harm it will do.
Using google while looking for something esle, I accidently came across a hacked version of Resident Evil and something called Wesker Report (Created by the someone named Zorlon) These are 2 incredible pieces of work. So if you want to find these then you will have to use Google
These are both PSX games and should run on the PSX even when burned.
But to play them on the PCSXBOX you will need to remake the IMAGE Files using alcohol 120%
___________________________________________________________________________
RESIDENT EVIL UNCUT:
The lame FMV's which were in black and white and some of them which were cut at some places have been replaced and added with the uncut editions.
Launch in HLE mode with Framelimit on and the rest in standard settings. The audio is off a bit but nothing that takes away from the game play. I tested this for about 5 min only so there is still a possibility of problems arising, but for now this launches and plays fine. Don't forget this is a Resident Evil game, so remember to unmap the Throttle button
___________________________________________________________________________
WESKER REPORT (This is not a game, it's a PSX video disk)
Wesker Report originally came with limited editions of the Resident Evil Code Veronica for the PS2 Also included on this disc is some footage from the never released version of Resident Evil 2 aka Biohazard 1.5 as well as the video of the uncut intro movie for the original Resident Evil.
Launch in BIOS mode with Framelimit on and the rest in standard settings. I watched a good chunk of this for at least an hour. There shouldn't be any problems and as of this point, all the videos play fine. The only thing I will say is that It launched once in BIOS mode then when I tried launching it again it wouldn't unless I put it in HLE mode so if you can't launch it then switch modes. I am not sure if the Throttle Button needs to be unmapped, but I did it anyway

I read on the list that Magic Carpet works great, so I tried it.
I get a slight crackle/audio glitch when starting the game, but the game plays great
up until about 5-10 minutes into it, when the audio starts to glitch out with screeching noises
and crackles (other than that the game plays full speed etc).
Does anyone else get this problem? I would love to play this little gem again
without the horrible screeching sound.
If anyone can tell me any settings to eliminate this sound, that would be great.
I have tried numerous things but none seem to work....
Well I stopped the screeching by "Disabling CDDA". That seemed to work for the screech, but now
obviously the music doesn't play. This must be the same as Wipeout XL, as I have to turn off the CDDA
in that as the music skips/jumps....Still, at least it works great otherwise.

Hey man. That was me that put that up on the list. If I were to have access to the list, I'd do a few things.
1st, I'd like to actually update it, because I've added probably several hundered games in the last few pages which haven't made it to the actual list. (No offence to Thraxen, who has been good enough to take up this task in his spare time in death's absence)
2nd, I would put a HUGE freaking disclaimer on the top of the page that any of my additions I played for only anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes depending on how much I actually liked the game, unless otherwise noted (Like Chocobo's Dungeon, which I remark as having played all the way to the end). Problems have been known to happen later in game, but I'm not going to play 1,400 Playstation games from start to finish for the sake of this list. I'm only one guy. I can't do it all myself.
Glad you like Magic Carpet. That was one of the ones I had no freaking clue how to play so I just put what I saw and moved on to the next one. In all honesty, I was so unimpressed by it that it probably got less play time than most. That's how most of these PSX games go though I've found. If you played them back in the day, you have a soft spot for it. Otherwise, it's 3 generation old crap. Sorry it didn't work out for you later in-game. You'll probably just have to do without sound. If you do beat it though, perhaps you'd be good enough to post your experience and if you were able to complete.
Of course, there always is the chance that your copy is bad or you're using a different format than I used and my copy would play perfect to the end as well. None of this is standard.
Yeah, it looks like I'll have to go without music (CDDA).
Thats cool though, as everything else works perfect....So far I've done about 5 levels with no other problems. This game is definetly an aquired taste, but awesome if you like it!
(Nothing like flying around on your magic carpet while fighting off beasts/rival magicians with cool spells, then using their energy to build big castles)
Just wanted to thank you all for all your hard work!
Having this list is very helpful and saves time. For all the unspoken, we are in your debt!Guy who modded my xbox a while back in 04 left me high and dry. I have been forced to learn all this stuff myself! But in a way its more gratifying to have done it myself. I just replaced my old emu with v18. I know, sounds nooby but it made me proud.
Oh, and Zoop and Atari Anniversary Edition Redux work perfectly on v18 Works with Standard Bios Settings. Hope it helps. I like these 2 games alot as well as any rpg. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)
Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV - works fine in BIOS mode, versions v13 and v19.
For those of you that can get Alundra working, can you tell me EXACTLY how you are doing it? How big your file is? What you named it? What bios you are using? Settings (exact).
I can't get this game to work for the life of me.... but I badly want to play it on my box. My copy works just fine in espxe
Alundra is 572.48 MB on my box, dude. You should try to rip it again
trust me, i've tried that. I've ripped it more than once, i've changed the format to bin/cue img/ccd mds/mdf, i've freaking downloaded the game from multiple sites.... yeah, nothing like that works.
I think it must be something else.
What did you name your img? What format? What are your EXACT settings? Did you need to tweak anything at all? Are you using the original bios? Please help!
I run the game with the default settings, I only put the IMG file on my box, and I've only played a little bit. Honestly, if you've tried those things and they didn't work, you could try to reinstall pcsxbox, and if it doesn't work after that, I don't know what to tell ya. I had a problem running games after I updated to the newest version, I had to delete the save in the dashboard to get it to work again.
My img is alundra.img. I run it in 1.6, i'll mess with my box in a little while, and see if there is anything special about my setup
The NTSC-U version of Alundra works fine on my Xbox on PCSXbox v19. I used bin/cue images ripped with Goldenhawk's CDRWIN. I just used v1.4 or v1.5 core in bios mode with all default settings and it runs fine. I only played for a bit. The game freezes after starting a new game on 1.6 core on my Xbox. You can clean up some of the sound hiccups by setting reverb and interpolation on none/fastest.
War Games Defcon 1 run in 1.6 version with old frameskip on and frameskip off. also turn use new save states off. there are lots of problems with the save states, they work with the 1.6 version but you shouldn't rely on the too much since they won't always load back up. the in game play seems to be perfect, but for almost all the levels the game won't load when you beat it, it's just a black screen. the only way to get around this is to use passwords or the gameshark level select code and go into the options screen and select a level from there. then when you start the game there'll be a black screen, wait a couple minutes and you should hear the buzzer to start the level and the objectives screen will load up -deathx88
Fighting Force runs almost perfect, save states wouldn't load in a couple of levels and the game locked up a couple of times in one of the levels. tested with the 1.5 core, bios mode, old frameskip on, frameskip off -deathx88
Fighting Force 2 runs perfect tad slowdown every now and then, no big deal. 1.5 core version, bios mode, old frameskip on, framekskip off -deathx88
Mort The Chicken game works perfectly, seems to be some lag though and the music stutters. tested in bios mode with the 1.5 core version, old frameskip on, frameskip off -deathx88
wasn't sure if this next game was on the list or not, i couldn't find it
Crisis City works perfectly with default settings, played with the 1.5 core version - deathx88
i know this next game already has a review for it but this should be added to it
Ehrgeiz - in Rpg mode mode, the text boxes only pop up sometimes. tried several settings, no fix for it yet.
Alien Trilogy game runs perfectly, only problem is that the music won't always start during the level. this can be fixed by pausing and unpausing the game. played using bios mode, 1.5 core version, old frameskip on, frameskip off -deathx88

its actually version 19, its just that its split up into 3 different core versions
the early versions of pcsxbox used 1.4
then it was upgraded to 1.5 when the pc version of the emulator updated
then when 1.6 came out xport decided to combine all of them in one emulator, this way you can select which one you want to use before you go into the game. they all have different effects on games, some have better playablity then others
by default its set to the 1.5 version
Hey deathx88. Heard you didn't post around here anymore.
Maybe you could answer this for me. I've tested a ton of games here for PSX and some that are unplayable might be suffering from my impatience with part of the testing process. Every time I try a different core other than the main one it craps up my emulator something awful. The screen is black with letters on it as if the skin isn't working anymore and the full paths of all of the roms are displayed again. At this point I either have to reset to the dash or I can play another game with the default core and when I exit everything is back to normal.
Very annoying, so I hardly ever test any games at all without the default core unless I REALLY want to play them.
Thanks

yeah i really don't post here anymore because this place isn't as exciting as it used to be
anyway, when you change the core version within the game it's like it switching to a whole new emulator itself, all the settings and everything have to be changed again, although i can't see something like this happening.
what exactly happens when you try to switch over? does it actually go into the game at all? can you right click and exit? what SHOULD happen is that the game reloads the emulator intro and then goes straight into the game.
have you ever had a chance before to go into these other versions and maybe accidentally mess something up? are you using a different skin other than the original?
i have a couple suggestions though, the most obvious would be to completely delete the emulator and the saves for the emulator (but backing it up first) then see if it works on a clean install
another way is too actually have these three versions running as three different emulators from your dash.
make 2 more copies of your pcsxbox folder and copy the default1.4 and 1.6 xbe files into each of them and rename them to just default.xbe, then you can use xberenamer to make them distinguishable on your dashboard. just use this way to see if you can even get emulators running games. if this way works then hopefully we can find what was wrong
Thanks for the reply deathx88.
I can play the game just fine when I switch cores. At least I know now that it should start the emu over again because I always thought that was weird. It's when I exit the game though that all the problems start. It's just a black background with white letters and the complete path, which pretty much makes it impossible for me to choose a game because my roms aren't in the emu roms folder, but another location which takes up the space from the left to the right of the screen. What I usually do then is just select any game, switch back to the default core and then exit the game and my settings return. I am using another skin other than the original, so maybe that's the problem.
This is good news though. Now that I know this isn't supposed to be happening I know I can fix it. If it's not the skin, I'll just delete reinstall and start from scratch and it should be fine. Wish I had asked this question from the get go. I just assumed this was a normal problem with this emu. Would have made testing games that didn't work with default core much more desirable. I wonder how many work in another core that I have marked as nonworking. I suppose I should make a remark that unless I have stated otherwise, all of my games have only been tested with the default core.
Thanks again man,
~Rx

I got Tekken 3 running pretty well with the following settings.
PCSXbox v19
BIOS Mode: BIOS File
1.6 core
CPU Plugin Version 1.12
GPU Plugin Version 1.19
Graphics Fixes: Frameskip on, everything else off
CPU Fixes: Works with all fixes off, the sound is a bit skippy in-game and cut scenes, disable XA sound processing if this is an annoyance. I didn't notice any performance increase when disabling XA sound.
SPU Fixes: Reverb and Interpolation set to None/Fastest, everything else default. Again XA sound can be disabled if the skippy audio is an annoyance.
I completed the game in story mode with Yoshimitsu, no problems. It does however crash at the end credits, at least on mine it didn't lock up my Xbox, I could still exit the game with a click of the right analog stick.

worms world party not working
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
it sais that it would work in bios mode, after long loading.. but it hangs on he loading screen... i waited for 10 minutes...nothing
could someebody test it and tell me what s wrong?
I also try with pcsxbox v11, v15, v19, all hang the same...
Reinstalled all new emulator, deleted saves folder, but nothing.. but i can run perfectly other games, and my worms image runs in my pc (Epsxe), so i think is not the problem.. also burned and test on a PS (not mine).... but i want it on my xbox!!!
But a manager to run worms (original, wich its pretty bad ).... so, can someone confirm that Worms world party works?? and post a better explanation to get it load.. (core version, fixes, mems, etc)

Worms World Party - (BIN/CUE) - Works with standard BIOS settings. FMV looks and sounds great. (v18) -ressurectionx
I got it working just fine. You have it in BIN/CUE format? I really do think that makes a huge difference. I've tested several other games in different formats and sometimes it will only work one way. Everything you're telling me leads me to believe that it's not an emulator problem and that you need to try to acquire another version of the game.
I fixed Worms World PArty..
This is what happenned: I downloaded an ISO image, burned to CD and worked perfectly on the PS.. Tha image also worked in epxse (pc version), but not on pcsxbox (xbox).. i read it should be bin/cue... so i converted to bin/cue format using WINISO.. that converted image worked on epxse emulator, but once again not on the pcsxbox!!! what the hell..
Yesterday, i made a new BIN/CUE image from the CD I burned from the not working iso, whith alcohol 120... first i selected the playstation option (which read the subchannel...) but that option is not working..
so then, i created the bin/cue without the subchannel option and any other option, just the image from my backup cd..
I ftp transfered the .bin image, but the game worked when i transfered the .cue file.. (in another games, i just transfer the .bin file, not the .cue, and it works)....
So, now a get worms world party perfectly working, it runs fine and music it ok...
I currently use pcsxbox v15, v15 core, bios file option, and all other default options...
Hope this help for someone else.. my trouble was the image..
thanks..

Glad to hear it worked for you.
I know people have said you don't need the .cue file if it only has one track, but I always add it. I add any .sub or any other file as well. They really don't take much room in relation to the image size and I figure better to have it than not. In the emulator options, you can have it so that the rom list only displays .img .bin .iso files so you don't have to look at the clutter of up to 4 files with the same name. Works perfect for me that way.
I have got Jumping Flash (1) working good now.
My settings are:
Pcsxbox v19
1.5 Core
Bios mode
GPU plugin 1.16
SPU plugin 1.9
Throttle method: Fixed
Under "Graphic Fixes":
==============
Use PC FPS calculation: On
Use old frame skipping: On (optional, IMO seems smoother)
The rest are off
Under CPU Fixes:
============
Parasite Eve/Vandal Hearts fix: On
Disable CDDA: On (Sound is jumpy for me)
Inuyasha Sengoku battle fix: On
The rest are off
Under SPU Fixes:
===========
XA Sound: Off
XA Speed fix: off
Reverb: Best/slowest
Interpolation: Simple
Sound timer method: Threaded
When i first tried this out it ran like a snail, This gives it boost of turbo.
I tried several combinations of "Graphic Fixes", some slow down the game if turned on.
As noted above, turning on "use old frame skipping" slows the game slightly,
but imo it seems smoother. If you like it running faster then turn it off.
I don't like jumpy music, so i disabled it.
This took a few hours to test it properly, but this game is still cool, so its worth it.
Will have to try part 2 now...
Sweet. Jumpin Flash was my first 3D game I was bummed when it didn't work. I'll have to try that out.
Hey ressurectionx, it was actually you that told me it worked (slowly), that made me spend
the time to fine tune this little gem of a game.

Cool man. That's great to hear. Never really even considered the possibility of somebody fine tuning my preliminary findings. I bet there's a whole bunch of games that work well with the right settings that I haven't tried. I don't know if you read my conversation with deathx88 but I didn't test most roms that didn't work with another core because it screwed the emulator up pretty bad. I thought it was just a flaw in the emu and I never thought to ask anybody. So although I stand 100% behind my findings on games that I've marked green, I'm sure there is plenty of room for improvement if a game that you like I said doesn't work.
Congratulations on your find neil222 and I hope you and others find many more.
I haven't tried it yet myself, but I'm looking forward to digging Jumping Flash out of my non-working .rar'd pile of PSX games and giving it another shot. Here's hoping II works as well...
Cheers.
I'll get onto part 2 & see how that goes, pretty sure it'll work too.
Anything is possible if you try hard enough.
Suikogaiden vol.2 (J) Won't load (v18)
I tried Jumping Flash 2 with a few slightly different settings than part 1.
Here are the settings I use for part 2:
Pcsxbox v19
1.5 Core
Bios mode
GPU plugin 1.16
SPU plugin 1.9
Throttle method: Fixed
Under "Graphic Fixes":
==============
All set to off
(some can be put on to slow the game down slightly)
Under CPU Fixes:
============
Parasite Eve/Vandal Hearts fix: On
Disable CDDA: On (Sound is jumpy for me)
Inuyasha Sengoku battle fix: On
The rest are off
Under SPU Fixes:
===========
XA Sound: Off
XA Speed fix: off
Reverb: Best/slowest
Interpolation: Simple
Sound timer method: Threaded
This runs fine speedwise. There are some texture dropouts on objects & other bits,
I think mainly due to the bigger levels, this is still very playable though.
Nice.... I'm adding the whole descriptions to my spreadsheet. We get things like this regularly from members we could have a whole lot more games working. Thanks for the good work neil222
Always glad to help out the XB scene.
Had my fair share of help over the years...
Torneko The Last Hope Works perfect in Bios, default settings (v18)
Dragon Quest IV (J) Works perfect in Bios, same settings as Dragon Warrior 7 (v18)
ok i went thru the list of games and it said tales of destiny 2 worked great with standard settings.
this is not true i was getting a strobe effect in none fmv screens.
to fix this i turned on.
lazy updates: on
old frameskip: on
the fmv audio was a bit gurguly but i got rid of the strobe effect.
pls for the life of everyone that uses this stuff fuly test iso's and img/cue files beyond fmvs to see if they are fully working without fixes.
Just checked Tales of Destiny and that wasn't my bad. I couldn't tell you if I tested it or not myself without my own documentation in front of me, but if I didn't disagree with it and the original documentation looked good, I didn't bother posting my findings. The problems you're having could be just because you have a different rip, so it's possible that the original poster is 100% correct in their circumstances.
I've said before that I've tested anywhere between 5 to 15 minutes on any given game unless otherwise stated. I assure you that because of this I'm not going to be 100% correct and you might find errors down the road, but nobody is paying me to do this so you get what you pay for.
My advice is to share your findings if you are to play a game you like further along, whether it is good or bad news. That's the only way this list gets more accurate. There's no point in talking down to anyone though because people will be less inclined to share what they know if they'll be berated for it when somebody disagrees.
So, if you want to try again, you can post like this:

Tales of Destiny [SLUS-00626] (BIN/CUE) - Frameskip OFF/old Frameskip ON/BIOS/Core 1.5/GPU 1.16/SPU 1.6/Sound Timer Method Original - Perfect with v18 -Retroplay
And make your changes, fixes, adds, ect... otherwise, this post of yours will get buried and the data you provided will never be updated.

hello,
i was just wondering if anyone has found a fix for Metal Gear Solid, it crashes after the first fight with Revolver Ocelot during the cutscene when speaking to the ArmsTech President. i have used the settings specified on this list and it was working great until this point.
many thanks
Nice to see you guys still actively testing. Good job.
I still have around 120gigs of PS1 games on my xbox so if you need settings feel free to ask. BTW has there been any updates to the emu in the past 6 months?
Not sure if its in the last 6 months, but the latest version is v19.

Hey Sotu,
Good to hear from you. Hope you don't mind that I took your format for posting results and ran with it. Got a few hundered more done myself but I'm pretty sure that the last batch or two have not been added to the frontpage list yet. I'd love it if you kept testing games that haven't been tested yet though. This takes a ton of time as I'm sure you already know. I'd like to get that list complete sometime this year if possible.
v19 came out in the last 6 months I believe. From what I hear, there is only changes to the GUI though and it won't effect compatibility at all.
Talk to ya later,

That doesn't sound like a compatibility problem, that sounds more like your cd image is bad,
if the other guy did get it to run its can't be disputed.
now had you said "the sound doesn't sync and the cursors don't show up!" then yes a dispute could be made,
but just saying "it dun run here" doesn't say much, i'd suggest you try another aproach with making a cd image,
but you didn't even mention which program you used and what kind of cd image it gave you.

I used clonecd, and burned the bin/cue image I made and can play it on a real modded playstation with no problem. I forgot to mention I am using pcsxbox v19. Looking back at old threads, I think this 007 entry was from v1 or v2, or another very early version. Isn't it possible that in one of the more recent versions, a change made it unplayable?
(NTSC) WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game works flawlessly for me with the default settings.

Hang on, modded PlayStations can read BIN files?
If you didn't create a data disc with the BIN file on it (instead creating a copy of the original game disc), then there's no way PCSXBox will read it. It only boots image files.

I only made a State save... Let test more....
I will write in a few minutes
After more testing with "Jade Cocoon - bla bla" i tried to make 6 States, i only manage to make in the State 1 and this time it loads.
I wonder why my PSCX is having problems with State saves in this particular game.
I had the exact same issue with FFVII. How many other games have you tested states with?
QUOTE(Bomb Bloke @ May 1 2008, 06:45 AM)
I had the exact same issue with FFVII. How many other games have you tested states with?
I got the same problem with Dragon Ball Z Legends... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) It must be my emulator... This only happen until i install the v19.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/comp.gif) I still have the v18 installed and they are both sharing the save folder. So im going to delete v18 and the save folder and teste again.
After i deleted the save folder and the v18. The state save seems to work fine with Drangaon Ball Z. So i assume that it was somekind unique problem. Jade cocoon will aslso work.
I have been using version 19 and currently playing FF7 (NTSC). I have been using the default settings, and it has been working fine so far. I'm almost at the end of disk one. The only issues I see are when I choose an item in battle, the cursor doesn't appear, I have to use the help window to make sure I use it on the right person. Haven't had a problem with FMV's or Save States. I'll update as I finish disks.
After testing a bazillion Psx games I decided to organize them by genre. What a bad idea that was, now more than half my games don't work for one reason or another and it also seems all the settings reset when I moved the images to different folders.
Just a heads up for those of you who might be thinking of reorganizing your collection. Might cause unexpected problems.
Thanks for the tip Sotu. Something that I probalby would have tried when I was done testing myself and it would have drove me nuts till I figured it out. Maybe we can find a way around it some day and get the "poor-man's" sort by genre to work.
Or maybe the guys working on XPort emus now could figure that one out too. I'll have to ask them, because that is an awesome feature in the MAME emu that isn't available in the XPort emus and their emus deserve it.
Maybe in v20? I'll even hold my breath for ya...

World Rally Championship Arcade: Running flawlessly on V19 (1.6 core). No graphics or sound glitches. In-game speed is OK - it's like 25FPS (?), but I guess this is the original game speed.

Could one of the mods please update the main part of this thread? I know it takes quite a bit of work to do, but there hasn't been an update since before December 17th, and there's been a lot that happened in here since then.
I did some checking and it looks like you should start from my post with this information:

I'm probalby going to do a bit more on this testing in the next few months. I'd like to test them all some day because there are quite a few hidden gems that I would never have played unless I tested them for this list.
"Action Man: Operation Extreme" is a badass game that I've never heard of and I recommend that everyone try it out at some point. You won't be disappointed.

Worked right through the first post, but now my brain has started to leak out my ears so I'll do the rest some other time.
Wasn't quite sure what to do with the dupes, so in some cases I left them and in others I deleted them (depending on how much info was in the original entries).
Just a couple of small requests, in future could you mention which version of the game you're using - PAL/NTSC, EU/US/J? It'd also be nice if you stuck bold tags around the game names, I must've typed [ b] and [ /b] about a hundred times or more putting them all in...
This question is Pcsxbox and PSP related. I have alot of my PS1 games converted over to Eboots for my PSP, and they work fine. What I am trying to do is extract the .iso from the Eboot so I can use it on the Xbox's Pcsxbox. I have tried both 'Ice Tea v1.3 & Psx2psp' to extract the .iso (both give extremely different sized .iso's). Has anybody had luck in extracting .iso from an Eboot? Re-ripping the original game has worked on most, but some of my favorite PS1 games are very scratched, and my Eboot is all I have left. Any help appreciated.

Hey Bomb Bloke. Thanks for working on updating it.
Sure, I could add what version of the game I'm using to future entries. If it helps at all though, I can say that all games that I play are NTSC/US roms. I have tested and plan to keep a very limited number of Jap & PAL games, but to my knowledge I haven't added any of those here. It's been about 6 months since I tested any, and I can't remember if I added any of the roms that were not US/NTSC games.
There weren't any games that worked in PAL that didn't work in NTSC though, and I only tested other versions of games that were US games if the US version didn't work, so I can say with certainty that if there was a US version of the game then if I posted about it here it was the US/NTSC version.
hey man this compaitibility list is 4 years old we need a updated one
also im pissed at freakdave giving up on surreal 64 whats he thinking after so many years
plzz tell me they plan on improving the PSX emulation
ohh by the way can someone post a a mini information post
because i dont know wat the options in PCSXBOX mean

Big head of doom
hi there guys PCSXBOX emulator had a lot of confusing option and its even more confusing when u dont know what these options mean or what dey do the game your trying to run and trial and error to get games to run is really a pain in the butt
so im pleaing to the pcsxbox community to explain to me all the menu options what they mean and what they all do and i mean everything
except for the obvious stuff like bilinear filtering and graphics filters
things i dont know are like ODD/EVAN BIT HACK on/off wht does it do ect ect
and evrything else in dat menu
and evrything else in the graphics menu ect ect
whats the difference between all the cores 1.4 1.5 1.6
what is each core optimised in ect ect with this information out to the nooby public out there theres a better chance of a better compaitibility list being produced and more perfected pcsxbox gaming
cuz ders always more noobs den experts out dere gettin it all wrong lol
so i urge for someone to post this informations thank you and i hope the informatin given in this forum thread helps other PCSXBOX users who are new with PCSXBOX!!!!
its time to put the PSX in the celler lol

what is CDDA what does it do when u turn it off and on
im having trouble with fear effect 1
the cutscenes keep locking up and freezing then crashing
ive tried various combinations any ideas
also it sometimes freezes and crashes during gameplay
ive played about 30 minutes of game to the point where u disarm the C4 bomb from dat guy
Hey 420
Hopefully we can get your findings transfered to the compatibility page. I only played about the first 5 or 10 minutes when I posted the results. If you figure it out, let us know.
It's been about 6 months since I looked at the PSX emu, so I can't remember which, but disabling CDDA disables part of the music or sound effects. It is usually turned off on games which have loud screeching or turned off to speed up a slow game.
hey id love to post my findings
but before i go round experimenting
i need to know what the options in the game setting menu mean
i mean what the hell is odd even bit hack and the rest of them
i need to know whats all the options means and do id appreaicte if could post that information here it would help the entire community achive better results
or at least inform the community about the options u do know of if u dont know all of them
and thanx for the CDDA tip
cuz i never played fear effect since i never owned a playstation untill like 2003 i bought xbox cuz of games like doom 3 and half life 2 and deus ex IW
then got it chipped den heard of emulation now i wann play some of those psx game dat kicked arse
cuz i was living off a NES and SMS till i was about 12 which was 1999
so yer some PXCSXBOX education would be nice for me and the rest of the community i figred ill ask u speficailly ressurection since u seem to have alot of esperience with the emulator or perhaps you could ask the peeeps at xport on behalf of the community dat use thier emulator
Unfortunatley 420, it's kind of a trial by error thing. Most of those settings mean nothing to me and I'm not about to test a game 20,000 times to figure out what little differences they make.
I can, however, tell you the more important ones that seem to have visible effects on a game:
BIOS, Core Version, GPU Plugin Version, SPU Plugin Version: These are good to try to mess around with if your game just doesn't work at all. They won't necessarily fix it, but changing these settings has been known to get some games to work, particularly the BIOS/HLE change....
Set Graphics Fixes (Lazy Screen Updates, Use old Frameskipping, Frameskip, Framelimit): These can be changed to make a game that works run slightly faster. Look at the plentiful examples of their use in the description for working games on the first page.
Set CPU fixes (Disable CDDA): Use this to disable sound in a game if it screeches like a banshee to you. Sometimes it can also be disabled on a game that is running slow to get it to run at acceptable speed. You lose out on the sound, but if the game plays that might be alright for you.
Set CPU fixes (InuYasha Sengoku Battle Fix): Sometimes this has been credited to getting strange menu glitches to work right. I couldn't tell you from expreince.
Sound Fixes (XA Sound, Interpolation, Sound Timer Method, IRQ in Decoded Sound Buf, Wait CPU action, Reverb): All of these you'll have to play around with on your own. They seem to speed up things, but it's very subtle.
Throttle Method: Some people also say this makes games work better, but the differences are subtle.
Anything else, I have no clue about.
Hope that helps,
~Rx
thanx for sharing you knolegde of the emulator

to get strider2 working on pcsxbox1.9.use the japanese version of the game in ccd/sub/cue/img format and set the emu to use the 1.4 core or just do what i did and go into your file explorer and hit the default14.xbe and your good to go.works with normal settings and normal bios.i didnt try the hle mode as it works damn fine in normal bios mode.
after you play the game you can just reuse the normal default.xbe after that as pcsxbox will obviously save your settings.
this games fukin great and their isnt any of the sprite glitches that there were in the bleem emulator version for dreamcast.
I Have some trouble with Final Fantasy Tactics, in the first battle i cant play, Gafgarion dont act and i cant play, ¿Anyone know how can i fix this problem, please?, In the list say that this game work 100%, how can i do that?.
Please i need help, this is my favorite game.
Your list says digimon battle card works 100% but it does not i get bad flickering on menus until i turn frameskip off. I put old frameskip on but the game now runs slow so what settings do I need to get it working 100%?
Hi everybody! I've tested some psx games with pcsxbox v19 (they are tested without any graphics fixes)
Hercules(PAL):works perfectly with bios files standard settings
Tekken 3 (PAL)works at 85% speed disabling sounds (playable!! )
Tekken(PAL) runs like the arcade version disabling sounds

Hokuto no ken...instead..freeze during the introduction..why??
Try to dig v13 and try in bios mode
or you cold change to the 1.4 core in the options of pcsxbox1.9.
resolved with the search function
last night I was searching some games through the list but I didn't find some games like crash series (1-2-3, crash team racing), A1 billiards...however they works nicely apart crash team racing that presents graphic lacks
when you play dodonpachi(j)bin/cue and you get to the end of level 1 some people have said that it just stays at a white screen with the music constantly looping.what you have to do is once the white screen appears start pressing the fire button constantly and the second level will start.this goes for the end of all the levels after you have defeated each boss.
oh yeah and this is using pcsxbox19 with normal bios settings in bios mode.
Mega Man Legends won't work for me, even though it says it's compatible.
It won't go past the Capcom screen. It'll start to fade out from it, but it will freeze with a faded Capcom logo on the screen, and just stay there.
Anyone else have this problem, and/or does anyone know how to fix it?
On the compatibility list, says that Breath of Fire IV works Perfect with Standard BIOS Settings. (v18) I have tried it as a (BIN/CUE) plus an ISO and and IMG and all it does is go black and nothing happens. I have tried many different settings but no luck. Has anyone else had any luck?
Also I can't get Guardian's Crusade to work either. The game actually loads up til you see the cutscene before the new game/load game screen and it just goes black and the xbox freezes. Did anyone ever get either of these games working?
Can anyone help me get any of these 2 games working? I've been trying to get breath of fire IV working for at least 8 hours. And the same thing keeps happening. It'll get past the now loading screen of the emulator then get a black screen and lock up my xbox. I've tried v1.3, v1.8 and v1.9 , both in bios mode and in HLE Mode. I want to play BOF IV really bad. Just can't get it to work any help will be appreciated.
Keep the list going guys!

Korokoro Postnin (J) Runs great, but dialogues are partially sloppy.
Micro Machines V3 (E) Runs great, but not as smooth as on a real PSX. (lower Framerate)
Missland 2 (J) Runs fine, but no 3-4 player support.
Thermal blood (J) Not running, with any core.
There s something global to say about Multi-Tap games: Japanese games won't accept the Multi-Tap emulation (at least for 3-5 Players).
I think Japanese games (real PSX) require the Multi-Tap in the 2nd Controller port, while the western games use the 1st Port for the Multi-Tap. But I think that PCSXBox plugs its Multi-Tap into the 1st port.

cant get Final Fantasy Tactics to start the first mission. Gaphgarion (spelling?lol) just sits there on his move turn, nothing freezes, rain keeps falling he just doesnt do anything. Any way to correct this? also a audio glitch during text sequences.
NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC (U) Works fine, FMV run perfectly,gameplay a little bit faster but playable with standard settings in pcsx V19
Though I'm using the settings stated in the list I'm still having trouble getting Vagrant Story to load.
When I load the game I get a completely black screen.
Current settings:
Bios: BIOS File
Core V: 1.4
GPU Plugin: 1.12
SPU Plugin: 1.5
Graphics Fixes: all off
Wait CPU Action: On
I'm not sure what else i should mess with and it would take me forever to sift through 66 pages.
Thanks for your assistance.

Vagrant Story works very well - try with diffrent image file
And this will you get if you use search option :
Core 1.4
gpu 1.12
spu 1.6
Graphics fixes turn on frameskip and framelimit
Cpu fixes turn on InuYasha Sengoku battle fix and FF9 movie fix
Spu fixes: xa sound on
xa speed fix off
reverb best/slowest
interpolation gaussian/good
wait cpu action on
irq... off
sound time method threaded
Im new to this forum thing but here it is (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) :
I tried legend of dragoon with the config given in the list and still had a few glitches(graphic and audio). Then did some tweeking of my own and actually made some headway, but still have some annoying issues in the early part of the game(such as one Dart's additions makes the screen glitch temporarly, opening battle music delay,and no after battle music at all!!). The config that i have now is:
pcsxbox v.19
bios:bios file
core:1.4
gpu plug:1.12
spu plug:1.6
gaphic fixes: old frameskip on, frameskip off
cpu fixes:disable cdda on
spu fixes: sound timer method- original
the addition glitch happened before my tweeks and is still happening. is there any help or am i being a bit too much of a perfectionist? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/uhh.gif)
Bit of a noob question here.
In the list you name the image format, e.g. (IMG/CCD/SUB) along with the game.
Is this to say that this particular format was used in the testing or that this format is recommended for best results?
Thanks.

It's the format that was tested i think, not that one format is better then the other.
I know your prolly studying this list tryin to get perfect psx emulation, I did, tried diff image formats, etc. but honestly dude PCSXbox just isn't that great. I deleted it after seeing how some of my fav games performed.
There's too much tweaking that's involved for games, and even games that are listed in green meaning no problems, they still have hiccups.
It sucks but untill someone get's the espsxe source code somehow were confined to this
The listed versions are just what was tested. Without a new wave of serious help I doubt everything will ever be tested, and so much doesn't work that it's not really worth it to do a bunch of games nobody would play anyways.
Try the Squaresoft games and a lot of other RPGs. Kings Field I and II work great, so do the Soul Reaver games. A lot of great games play 100% or close to it.
Check out my updated compatibility spreadsheet in the first post of my thread in my sig.

Thanx for the input. Sorry about the whole format thing. I ripped the game using cdrwin at 1x speed into .bin and .cue files. I'm just curious if the game can work on the xbox.
so Metal Gear Solid....
Anyway to fix it from freezing at the nuclear factory FMV
after the Revolver Ocelot fight, and the ninja chops his hand off.
PCSXBOX v2.0 available on xbins now.
Er, do you mean v20? That one doesn't affect game compatibility.
Star Ixiom - Bin/Cue Works perfectly with standard bios settings, didn't have to mess with anything.
This post has been edited by sotu: Apr 27 2009, 08:47 AM
Retro Force - PAL Bin\Cue Works perfectly with standard bios settings.
70s Robot Anime-Geppy-X RARE Japanese SHMUP Bin/Cue Works perfectly with standard bios settings v20 and you don't even need to know japanese to enjoy the game.
X COM NTSC Bin/Cue Seems to run perfectly after fiddling around with some settings. Need to Turn Frameskip OFF and Use PC FPS Calculation ON. Played it through one mission without any freezes with these settings after having freezes before. Of course this is with the new v20
I'm beginning to get the feeling that many of the non working games even as recently as v18 might now work fine. I'm saying this based off XCOM mostly because I personally spent days testing that mothafugga and it wouldn't budge. It would crash at or around the same point EVERY time. So what's different now you ask? Well it's loading everything quickly, the aliens are wussies and ambush you, killing your beloved soldiers. It's just the way it's supposed to be. I did have a little problem initially using 1.5 standard and it booted to black screen with sound. When this happens I've found it helpful to turn Framskipping OFF then you get picture. I also decided to try 1.6 which also works. During the first battle I had a problem with the blinking cursor used in the game to select what you want, it stuck, nothing would move it but it kept on blinking and I could exit out so it didn't crash. -Use PC FPS Calculation seems to do the trick.
Unfortunately someone else is reporting it still not working so I'm not sure if it's their image or not. I'm going to give it some extended play today and see what happens.
Seems v20 is the SHIZZLE!
I think from memory, that v20 only had changes to things that wouldn't affect games playing...
But your correct in the fact that play with enough settings & some games come to life!
My own experience showed me that when I got Jumping Flash 1 & 2 going..couldn't believe it really.
Good testing there Sotu...
Well, it shouldn't affect emulation. I think. Maybe I had to make a few other changes to make the thing compile. Maybe.
I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if you grabbed a copy of v19, tried your same settings on that, and found X-COM worked there too.
Hmm interesting notion, I'll try that.
I played Xcom for a few more hours last night after work and am happy to say there were no problems other than getting owned by aliens. I think the PSX version is a bit tougher than it's dos predecessor.
There was actually a bug in the DOS version that made it so that the difficulty level would always flip to Beginner after the first mission. The final patch (1.4) fixed it.
The PSX version lets you open doors without going through them. Take advantage of that. Also note that kneeling really does make a difference, both to your odds of getting hit, and to your odds of hitting your targets.
This post has been edited by Bomb Bloke: May 3 2009, 02:28 AM
Ha! I only ever played it on beginner even though I've probably beat it 5 times in my life.
Maybe I should bump up the difficulty level this time?
Those sneaky bastards always ambush me when I do that.
Consider your main problems to be their increased accuracy/health, and the large increase of battleships flying around the world map... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
As a general rule, you won't get ambushed if you don't run off too quickly. Move slowly - Leave plenty of time units in reserve for when you end your turn (the more you have left, the more likely it is your guys will attempt to fire on the aliens during their turn). Likewise, the more time units you have during your turn, the less likely it is the aliens will be able to fire at YOU. Never go around a corner with a low reserve.
Spread out enough that one grenade won't take out half your squad, but not so much that you can't quickly avenge the death of any given trooper.
But the main thing, of course, is to make sure that the aliens can't "break your line" and get behind you. The only way an alien should be able to get a bead on one of your guys should be by stepping into your own line of fire.

Although v19 does work, it doesn't work as well. Has some delays where controls are unresponsive but then they come back after a minute or two. Seems to be an issue when rapidly assigning tasks and entering and exiting menus. Not a problem with v20.
Hrm...
When I first couldn't get the thing to build, I bugged X-Port about it and he suggested maybe we'd ended up with different versions of the XDK. It could be the changes I had to make to get it to work were real bugs that'd slipped into earlier releases due to a less strict compiler. Dunno. There weren't many of them.
I'm very happy with v20 mainly because it's running everything I'm throwing at it and at this point in my testing I've tried almost everything now I'm trying to shore up my own personal collection, not so much for testing purposes where I just dl'd hundreds of gigs just so I could test the games and report them working or not. Now every game I snatch means a bit more because the games are my favorites and in some cases quite rare. In either case it's been a joy having them boot right up and work.
I got obliterated in Xcom today, exiting everyone to the left i never looked to the right were apparetnly there was a rocket launching alien who wiped out 4 of my best. You're right, bloke, you absolutely must take your time and cover all your bases.
Primal Rage US - IMG/CCD/CUE/SUB - Works great with 1.5 and standard bios settings.
Gamera 2000 - IMG/CCD/SUB/CUE - Runs like a charm after making some changes. I turned Use PC FPS Calculation ON and Frameskip OFF. I'll preface this by saying I use the Analog stick on controllers to play SHMUPS instead of the directional pad. That said you'll need to disable some things so you're not constantly loading save states etc. Once the game starts go into configuration/controller configuration/Controller 1/Change joypad mappings/Change UI Mappings then turn the following to Nothing+Nothing: Fast Forward, Save State, Load State, Change Save State Slot, Screenshot then once you set the GFX filter you like then turn that off as well. IF you don't change these settings then the game will severely stutter along as it attemts to load and change save states etc. Once these settings are changed the gameplay is very fluid and smooth.
i dont think grandia plays near perfect.
it works but often it's very laggy. i hate to see hores of enemies on screen.
Hey bomb, I could PM you but I figure others might benefit from your answer.
So, how do you open the doors in Xcom without sending your trooper though? I tell ya, those puss aliens love to retreat and ambush!
Thanks in advance.
ya this is an old thread but i was realy happy i got this game working.
I couldnt do the game save thing for metal gear solid but i got past the ocelot part another way so i thought i would share.
pcsxbox v.20
MGS bin\cue
Ok i followed the settings that it says in this list to make it run perfect untill the ocelot part. Once you beat ocelot and baker says Hal E. save a state. Once done you can watch any part of the conversation with snake and Baker in the screen. But let all the other parts ( the nuke, Mgs, Or any of those load then skip them or the game will crash. This worked for me and i love this game so i hope it helps you to.
Also there are two more spots that are bad....
1. when your in the cell with the DARPA Chief dont skip the movie or the game will send you to a weird screen that says SONY ENTERTAINMENT and thats it you can exit it.
2. When you are at the very end in the jeep, turn the throttle button to 1 and hold it down the whole time. This is because there is alot of laging and you cant even see the screen really unless you do that.
Well i hope this helps.. I know old thread but this is a really great game i think.

This thread looks somewhat still alive so I'm going to post this here as I can't find the proper thread to post it in. To anyone who has the source now and is still working on the Pcsxbox please answer me this question: Under CPU options is "Disabling XA sound processing" and under SPU options is "XA Sound" don't they both affect the same thing by disabling the music played in the background of games and also the music and sound played in FMV sequences? Can someone verify this? Because if that's the case it should be noted for future updates. PEACE

Wats up man I read that other post u linked and listen to the guys there because they're right. The TData and UData have nothing to do with x-port emulators. The Udata that is stored on the E drive is for Xbox game saves, default thumbnail pictures, etc. The TData that is also stored on the E drive is for any emulator that isn't ran by x-port. This could be savestates on the surreal64, configurations set up for other emulators, also are programs such as Mimesis, X-DSL, and all those third party homebrew programs that you can install from Auto Installer Deluxe. All X-port saves are under E:/Saves/Any x-port emulator. I will get the ISO and try it myself and I'll tell you the results.
-Dnyce
Hey alucard I tried running the game on my pcsxbox v.20 and it works great but the problem you mentioned I've tried many different combination of options and no luck. The FMV sequences are muted. I don't think it has anything to do with the file type. Only BIN/CUE and IMG work as far as I'm concerned. The only other thing I can suggest you do is trying to download configurations but even then they're like 75% bogus and the users who upload can name them differently which is a pain to find. I hope the developer is working on a HUGE update on the cores and start a brand new LEGIT and ACCURATE configuration list. Hope in the next update Mega Man Legends 2 will get past the capcom screen .
I'm having lots of trouble running Pcsxbox on my xbox & wondered if its just something obvious I'm missing?
I've managed to get every other emulator on the xbox working without problems & also use epsx on my pc with no hassle too.
I have tried several games now in several formats (.img .bin/.cue .iso) etc & made sure the config settings are identical to the ones listed in this topic but all I get is a black screen - sometimes I cant even quit back to Pcsxbox & have to restart the xbox.
I know my game images are fine because I can use them on PC emulators with no trouble at all.
Anyone got any ideas?

Your best bet for verifying disc images is probably http://redump.org. Images working on a PC emulator doesn't mean a whole lot.
You don't necessarily need a perfect image for the games to work. But remember that the different image types seems to respond differently within PCSXBox.
Also, the images that the recommended settings from this thread were tested on are almost-definately different to your own in ways other than the image type.
The only way you're gonna get them working is by experimenting with a whole lot of settings yourself. Good luck.
Hi Greatant,
I'll try that site, thanks for the link. I have also tried images taken from my own playstation discs in various formats too & again they work on the pc but not the xbox. I will keep trying though.
Concentrate on the settings, not the image types. Stick with bin/cue if you have a choice, but otherwise play around with the settings.

Right guys, I've tried about 20 games now, each with just about every combination of settings possible (starting with the ones recommended on here) and all I get is a black screen which 90% of the time I cant quit out of (Xbox crashes). I've tried 3 different versions of Pcsxbox too & usually get the same results. I've got every other program working on my xbox with no trouble but pscxbox just eludes me.
Ok I've managed to get one game working - final fantasy VII & I'm very pleased coz thats the main game I want to play. Its almost perfect apart from the music is a little jumpy & the fade effect when you go into battle doesnt work - does anyone know a fix for these?
trying to play parappa the rappa here
list says works perfect yet seems the audio gets messed up. the audio dont line up with the scroll bar. that or the scroll bar is too fast moving.
tryed both bios. work both the same.
any help here?
Is the main list on the first post up to date? It says updated 07.... but people have posted working games lately.
Super Pang Collection (aka Buster Brothers Collection) (IMG/CUE, IMG/CCD/SUB, ISO)
Doesn't work. Freezes during loading (BIOS or HLE). Reported to be working on the PC version of PCSX (v19)

I'm not. It's too much of a hassle to transfer 500MB to the box to test a game I'm never going to play. Sotu and I did quite a few reviews, but I doubt you're going to find anybody else who would do that for hundreds of games like we did.

I haven't even tried using that feature for a few years now. Maybe the server isn't around anymore. If that's the case, and we can confirm that it won't be back up again, we should probably just remove that feature from the emulators.
My game saves, when released, will suffice for most systems. You'd have to make sure that your images/roms are named exactly like mine though for them to work.

The emulator can be configured to work with different websites - there's an option to change the IP in the settings menu. Even if X-Port let the site fallover, there's a good chance he'll have a backup of the configs somewhere.
I only ever used that feature once, but that one time got me VII running as perfectly as I believe it can get. I'd spent about a day working on settings and running over the forums for suggestions, and then I just pressed a few buttons and it was all go.
The downloadable configurations are one big mess anyways and the Amiga directory is all fouled up. I think it is full....

Are there other websites with configurations that would work?? Or are you just saying that in the future someone could start a site to hold them?
I know of no other such sites at this time. Doubt any exist.
Shadow Madness - Plays through initial area, dialogue, FMV's and battles fine. Locks up when you hit the world map. Does not work in HLE Mode.
I've been lurking around for a while to get more info about the settings for Digimon World 2. I believe I found the correct settings as decided to share them here so that another would find this and not waste time.
I used core version 1.6, GPU 1.16 and SPU 1.6 with old frame skipping and framelimit on. the rest are off.
The key is you CANNOT throttle. if you throttle, it will throw off the game and will make it so that you cannot see the fights.
Past that i haven't had anymore problems except for a few slowdowns. if anyone wants to iterate on this, be my guest.

Did you try the "fixed" throttle option?
A lot of people report that you also can't throttle in eg FFVII, but I've found the fixed throttle works just fine. Well, you'll get visual glitches while using it during certain scenes (eg while entering battle), but at least such issues only stay in effect for a short time, as opposed to being there until you reset the game...
Compatability list needs to be updated! Missing games from "C" (crash bandicoot)
also emulator is at ver. 21
Still waiting for deathx88 and his backup...

trying to play parappa the rappa here
list says works perfect yet seems the audio gets messed up. the audio dont line up with the scroll bar. that or the scroll bar is too fast moving.
tryed both bios. work both the same.
any help here?
hey buddy its annoying when people ignore you isnt it, just seen your other posts about this game, all ya have to do is turn frameskip off and make sure the only thing that is turned on is frame limit. it will work perfectly then mate im using core version 1.5 on it and use the bios file. hope that helps
hey thanks for the reply! i did as you said. it seems to work for awhile! but then slowly gets worse as a song goes on. to where i have to do my commands almost at the same time the teachers says them. i cant get past the first level.
I've recently been trying PCSXbox. The first I've been running is Fear Effect. I'm using PCSXbox v21 Madmab Edition. I've tried different settings, Throttle Method: Fixed, On and Off of Frameskip and Framelimit. I'm not sure what would be causing the video to freeze and audio continues. This is at the beginning cutscene of the story. It happens about 30 seconds into the cutscene. Once it freezes, I can't skip to gameplay. But I can skip the cutscene before it freezes. Gameplay seems to work, until I get a cutscene, like Game Over, freezes again. I'm new to using this Emulator, not sure what settings are the ones to try changing. If for Fear Effect and other games that have certain problems.
Does anybody know how to make the Mtv music generator work? or even if it works at all?
Vagrant Story doesn't work in v18, v19, or v20! I've tried them all! i know it's not a bad img because it works on epsxe emulator. i have both the pal and the ntsc-u and they wont work for me! they hang in-game at the now loading screen that appears when you first load the game! resurrectionx says this game works perfectly so what is going on here!?
PLEASE help me fix Vagrant Story!!
It's a conspiracy.
Disc images come in many formats. iso/bin+cue/ccd+whatever For some reason the format of the image affects whether you can play it. Converting the image from one format to another won't work. But if you re-rip the original CD as an alternate format it might help.
i remeber to play vagrant story in pcsxbox_v19 and works fine for me
the only strange thing i noted is the weird sounds...maibe a problem with the peops sound plugin,but the gameplay is perfect
There's a note in the first post of the compatibility list saying that certain games (including Vagrant Story) won't start if you've got a filter enabled.
Anyway! As the lists in this thread were getting so long that the posts they were in couldn't contain them, I've spread them out in a new thread (deathx88 sent me the missing entries nearly a month ago now, I've just been sitting on them).
