Hi there,
a few months ago i had epsxe version 1.3.4 or something,i dont exactly remember which version i had,but fact is,that version had run my GT2 with no problems.now i downloaded the new version and it doesnt run at all.i tried all versions of epsxe i could find on the web but it wont run,and yes i used accurate cd timing option and tried to start with the commandline -f -cdtiming options.but it just wont work.im beginning to think it might be the cdrom cause im trying to run the game from a cdr/w burner (sony crx175e) might that be the only problem?but i also tried to run the game from my hd as an iso.another interesting thing is,that yesterday epsxe started the game (from cd) and wents right before you get to the main menu and freezes there with a black screen.and today,after another 20 tries of configuring and stuff,it just brings the sony logo (as if you start the psx bios).im really depressed.does anyone know a solution or a emu that will run GT2?

my pc config:
amd duron 1.3ghz
256mb ram
geforce 2 mx400 64mbvram

psx bios (tested with the game) : scph1000/1001/7502
epsxe versions (tested with game) : epsxe 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.4 1.5 1.51
and 1.52

please help me!!!! :eyes:
 
Prafull, I've opened this thread again because theracer17's problem seems a bit different. He already tried older versions of ePSXe and they didn't work (he mentioned that).

theracer17, are other games working fine with the emu? Which plugins are you using?

well im using pete´s GPU 1.63 D3D,the SPU core of Epsxe,the cdr aspi core of epsxe.i dont own any other psx games than gt2,its the only game worth to be played since i got my pc to play racing games which were originally designed for pc use.i still wonder why none of the gran turismo series were ever made for pc users.

hey i got a little further and more info,what i was able to find out yet is that epsxe 1.40 will more likely run the game than the other versions,after the first two intro screens,when the language selection menu should come up,it pops back to windows and gives me this error message in epsxe´s command window :


SPEC Opcode 1cUNK (PC 0008da0) (PC 0008da0) (976,9)

maybe its still the wrong bios that im using (scph1000/1001/7502)?
or could it be that the cd is just damaged too bad?
(i copied the files from my scratched original cd to my harddrive and made of fresh copy of it)

does anybody know what this error code tells me?

ok i got it to work with epsxe 1.40,i tried the original cd a couple of times.it seems to be the backup.does GT2 have a copy protection (simlation cd) or does anybody know how i can make a iso with the files from the cd stored on my hd?i have cdrwin but i dont know if i did everything right cause you can change many options there when you create an iso.cant i just copy the files from the original cd and burn them on a fresh cd?
