Sorry for double posting, but I figure I should post when there are more on:

Still having problems with Final Fantasy IX and battle swirls/some choppy audio, probably because of the graphics/battle menu not showing. Which plugins would work without having me configure them? When I first got EPSXE I downloaded the first one I saw, OpenGL, I think, and it worked PERFECTLY. But I can't remember which version it was. I tried Squall's solution, but nothing improved. He also didn't mention which version I should use, but I tried a couple of the 1 series and no avail, or counter-suggestion from anyone.

So here's some information:

If it's possibly because of sound (doubt it) let me know. Thank you!

Unfortunately, every game has it's own way to draw graphics, so you have to make different config for each game. Frontends are the way to manage them. If you need one, go to NGEmu's main page for info.

Lord Kane's settings should work for you. Go here to get them.

Always go for the newest versions of plugins. Most likely there's no need to go for an older version. (For emulators, it's not always the best choice to go for the newest.)

Hope it works.

compatibility to 3-3-4 works for nearly everything.

none of those worked.. =/ it's still choppy and the swirls don't work, and switching between ATEs and regular gameplay can take up to 3 minutes
