:drool: I am trying to configure my ePSXe file.
But when I go to the configure menu nothing appears in Main Video Plugin drop down menu. Any help would be wonderful. I have searched through the FAQ's but I haven't located anyone else with this problem or a solution. If this has already been posted my apologies.

Hello CCloverJT and welcome to emuforums.
Well, Did you downloaded the necessary graphics plugins? Anyway,for more informations, and in case it haven't been done, I suggest you to read this thread.

 

[CCloverJT]

Thank you for your help RedLion . Yes, I have "Pete's OpenGL2 PSX GPU" files in the Windows/System folder. However, still nothing shows up in the drop down menu. Am I doing something wrong still :heh:?

 

[RedLion]

Are you starting ePSXe from a shortcut?Are you using a frontend? If it is the case, try to start directly from the exe and see what happens.

 

[CCloverJT]

I ran the ePSXe.exe file. Then clicked file>run CDROM. I got the error message "ePSXe is NOT completely configured. Go to config-> video ...". But still nothing shows in the drop down menu on the Configure>Video>Select/Config Main Plugin. Is it possible I need a different dll file?

 

[RedLion]

I just checked.The file should be named "gpuPeteOpenGL2.dll". Try to download it from here.

 

[CCloverJT]

I put that file into the Windows/System folder but still no effect.

No...You must put the file in the plugins directory located in the ePSXe folder.That's where it belongs.

:heh: Thank you. Sorry about the stupid question :S But I have one last question for you. Now I get the messages "Missing render-texture extension!" and "No pixel format available." What do I need to download to fix these problems? [btw I'm trying to run Chrono Cross if that helps.]

Read the manual

Your video card is incompatible with that gpu plugin.

What is the brand and exact name of your video card please?

Link?

For this card the recommended plugin is the Pete's Direct3D one. Download the Pete's GPU plugins located in the same page I pointed to you before and select this one.

PERFECTION :lol: Thank you so much. :thumb:
I'm wondering though, is there any way to cut down the amount of lines present on the screen in the backgrounds? And a way to keep the sound from echoing?

Post an image and I'll try to see what settings you need to input (surely tomorrow or someone else will come to help you). For the sound, the Eternal SPU plugin is one of the best.

Do you have texture filtering set to 5 or 6? Try 3 or 4.

Chrono Cross uses a lot of 2D sprites. This can look really weird compared to the rest of the 3D environment.

 

[Squall-Leonhart]

Set colours to best if theres an option for it and set filtering to 4.

 

[CCloverJT]

masta.g.86 & Squall-Leonhart Thank you
Problem fixed :thumb:

But the sound is still a little jumpy,
I have the Eternal SPU plugin.
Should I change the settings?

 

[masta.g.86]

Try changing the buffer size to 48. Also, (and maybe more importantly) set audio out method to 'SPUasync' and Async mode to 'smooth'.
