Hi there, new to this forum.
I have bought myself Final Fantasy Tactics from USA and want to play it on my PC. I have downloaded epsxe and plugins, but when I try to start it I only get a black screen and nothing happens.

The plugins I use is:
BIOS: SCPH1001.BIN
Graphics: gpuPeopsSoft
Sound: spuEternal
CD-ROM: cdrmooby2 and even peops.

My computer has:
2.8Ghz
1024MB RAM
windows XP
Nvividia FX 5600XT 128MB

Well I got the game starting now, BUT the intro movie is lagging VERY much!

You probably need to install ForceASPI CDROM drivers or make a CD image and play from hard drive by using cdrmooby2 plugin.

 

[Cho-Arrim]

tried both of them but they are still lagging

make an ISO of your game

I couldn't get ISOs to work, I had two of my games on ISO and I couldn't get EPSXE to play them. do I have to use the cdr2mobby plugin?

 

[hushypushy]

you can just go to Run ISO...what did you make the ISOs with?

 

[DemonSui]

I use Ultra ISO. which I had till me computer crashed... I'll mess with ISOs again, cause I have a different ISO maker.

 

[hushypushy]

try using CloneCD or Alcohol120%. i heard ISOproducer is good too...

I have a similar problem to the original poster. My system specs are the following:
1024mb RAM
P4 2.8ghz proc
Mobility Radeon 9000 (this is a laptop)
Windows XP Professional

When I try to run Final Fantasy Tactics from iso (made with ISO Producer) or the original cd, the opening video is extremely laggy (frame and sounds skips a lot). This problem continues on the main screen (wherein one starts the game or continues from mem card). My plugins are as follows (dll files listed where I'm not certain which they actually are):
GPU: gpupetedx6d3d.dll
SPU: spueternal.dll
CD: peops and cdrmooby
BIOS: scph7502.bin

I pretty much used default configuration or the "fast" configuration (where available) on all my plugins.

update your drivers. defrag your hard drive.

in ePSXe, it says the version of your plugins. make sure you have 1.76 of OGL, 1.41 of Eternal. whne you run ISO, jhust go to File--->Run ISO.

I used Ultra ISO anyway, I have ISOproducer now, and yea, it's great. just configuring it is sometimes a pain.

(I appoligise for duuble posting)

Get Peops soft plugin. and do this:
use the special game fixes for Lunar and capcom games. also use the fix that talks about 1.5.2 These usually help, especially with FF games. ISOs work the best
