Well that's what my site is supposed to be about, but I'm a lazy feck and I haven't updated it in an age.

well.
-there's a thread already about making ISOs
-i made a thread and (IIRC) stickied it about using ePSXe
-if someone cant get past a point and needs someone to load their memcard, it;s ok to make a new thread for it
-it's not hard to look for the updates for new plugins at www.ngemu.com/psx
-ePSXe itself states what plugins are suitable, perhaps it should now be upgraded to include OGL2
for MOST games and MOST systems, the "nice" preset does well. for OGL, Kane offers some good crap. for OGL2, i've posted about 4 games that need special configs (FF7, 8, 9, MGS). there are a lot of stupid questions, yes, but i guess those are the ones you need to answer. if you make an FAQ too huge, it will become a ***** to sort through and impossible. if you try to make ONE generic thread it will become a mess (chrono cross/1.6.0 thread for a great example of that).
besides that, n00bs never read FAQs or use seach functions or any of that.

heh, well. this is what i want (i've had this laid out for months).
-basic setup guides ( i mean BASIC. for the utter n00b). how to turn on ePSXe and put it together. this is where it says, it's recommend that you make an ISO which links to....well scroll donw for a second.
-generic config guide, possibly included with the above. basically it needs to say what plugins for what card and what settings to generally use (Nice preset )
-the ISO making config.,
-advanced config guide. this has been taken care of by Lord Kane with his site, and by me and a few others with OGL and OGL2, respectively. perhaps someone could chip in their 2 cents about Lewpy's plugins. also, i have some thoughts on CD plugins and sound plugins also.
this would all be organized by game. example: THE FF9 PAGE. it contains my OGL2 config/sound/CD and Kane's OGL config. it also states to use ePSXe 1.5.2 for best results.
and that would go on. it explains for games not listed, you can probably get off with default/nice settings.
then i'd like a generic "things to check for" type deal. are you using save states? playing off CD or ISO? did you make the ISO correctly? is your disc scratched? does it work on the regular PSX? is it in the Known Bugs list (we'd make one of these also)? you know, troubleshooting tips.
anyone who has seen my OGL2 configs page knows that i'm up to spend time working on PSX emulation. i'm not messing around. i know what has to be done, and we have a ton of talented people towards PSX emulation around here, so i think it canbe done. the actual PSX part is done. Kane, myself, n_w95482, fireblaster_lyz, I-Chan, even dutchMasta and more are stepping up to the plate. we just need someone who can make websites and will bow to my every whim :evil:

Hey, this is a great idea. Anything i can help, just ask me. If there's any problem in using Kane's site, i'll gladly arrange a webpage with your input. In fact, it happens to me as to hushy, i've had the idea of making an sticky with common configs and such for long, but who reads stickies?
we did, a little bit Kane and i talked on MSN for a bit, he made me admin on his forums. i posted some ideas in the admin forum, now just gotta wait for him to get back to me....it's quite hard for him and i to talk on instant messenger, since he's like 8 hours ahead of me, and im busy here from 7AM to 6PM, every weekday.
