Load Suikoden 1 Data Epsxe
Hey there I followed this guide: Install ePSXe Playstation Emulator (Version 2) (I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 (32-bit). Radeon x1650 graphics card (using x1600 9.2 driver), 1.5GB ddr1 ram and a 2.3Ghz Pentium 4. I've played ps1 games on a computer with lower specs before so I know thats not the problem. I have epsxe set up. The only problem was that I do not know how to configure Cdrom. I tried using /dev/cdrom, /cdrom, /cdrom0, computer:/// and a whole bunch of other wacky stuff. Here's the output from the terminal when I try to run from Cd-Rom: yusuf@yusuf-desktop:$ epsxe.
Suikoden 1 Iso

yusuf@yusuf-desktop:$ I want to run my ps1 games from CDs. My ps1 is too old and can't read most of them anymore. My CDs have no scratches and I used to play them on Windows XP. I don't and cannot dual boot and there are no Windows computers in the house so that is not an option. I have checked my Dual layer DVD-ROM drive and it works fine, reads everything. Does anyone know what the problem is? I do not know how to decipher the output from the terminal above.
Cool, now I can play ps1 games again xD With Logitech's RumblePad 2 also! And nice sound For those who read this in the future, be you guest or member running ubuntu 8.04 32bit, this is what I did to get myself up and running: 1.
I followed Felsons Install ePSXe Playstation Emulator (Version 2) (to get epsxe up and running (best to type the commands one by one to know where anything goes wrong) 2. I searched on google for the bios 'scph1001.bin' and found a solid working one (after which I inserted it into epsxe's bios file). I used PSXIM to make.bin files of my ps1 cds to make it easier to play them. I used this Back up your PlayStation games using PSXIM (easy GUI) (thread to install and familiarise myself with how PSXIM works.
I use Pete's MesaGL Driver 1.76 for the gpu (config video and select it) I use P.E.Op.S. OSS Audio Driver 1.9 for sound (with pulseaudio on, I do not experience any bad sound quality) For (config - cdrom) I use /media/cdrom0. For the Logitech Rumble Pad 2 I just plugged in the controller, went to config Ext. Game Pad and selected each button and pressed the appropriate button on the controller and that was it. I have no other software or any type of settings for my logitech controller, it just works.
Only prob I experience is in fullscreen mode (no image), so instead I use windowed but I give the width and size appropriate values to give it the fullscreen feel (it varies with each monitor I think, and I'm using an old type hehe) To load the games you made.bin files of using psxim, open epsxe then go to File Open ISO and search for the.bin file of the game (where ever you saved it) open it and voila it should run Give the blackscreen a second or two and then it should start Woot go gaming xD.
