Does the command line in ePSXeCutor work differently from how it does in ePSXe and if so, how? I edited the properties of a shortcut for ePSXe.exe to use the exact same command line I've successfully been using in ePSXeCutor (-loadbin filepath) and nothing happens, ePSXe GUI comes up and I have to start the game by hand. What's the deal here?


Secondly, and this is tricky: loading an iso through ePSXeCutor via command line always brings up the bios screen, which causes the GT2 iso to freeze (note: this is _not_ the copyright screen - enable exact mdec timing thing! ) So for the longest time I was thinking playing this particular iso in ePSXe wouldn't work - till I actually tried it through the normal GUI -->run iso. And voila, it did work. No Bios screen and the game booted perfectly.

So my question is: a) how do I prevent ePSXeCutor from bringing up the Bios bootscreen and/or how is the correct command line syntax for iso loading in ePSXe? Btw, under Win2k. Thanks.

Well, i could answer those questions, but first you should read the ePSXe Unnoficial FAQ that's on www.psxemu.com, it really would help you in the future.
As for ePSXexecutor you're enabling the option to start the gui or the command line isn't right (ie missing initial dash "-" or the file was not found) and be sure to use this sintaxe: -loadbin "C:\Wherever you put the file with spaces in the path\game.bin", wrapping everything into the inverted commas

Yes and every command you use will boot up all the psx boot up screens unless you also use this command:

-f

ei...

-loadbin c:\mgs.bin -f

Then it loads the game without all the boot up screens..

Cheers everyone and thanks for the -f switch hint.
Working great now.
However (and I think someone got me wrong on this) it's not ePSXeCutor I couldn't get to work from the command line (ie shortcut) but _ePSXe_ proper.
BTW, you do not have to use a wrapped command line in ePSXeCutor.

No, only if you use spaces in your directory names..
