I just downloaded all 10 parts to Metal Gear Solid and saved them to My Docs. Then I got PSXeven_v0.19 because I thought it was pretty easy to use but when I clicked "Run ISO" and secect mgs download 1 from my docs it the emulator just shuts off???? I'm used to using ROMs and not ISO's so this is my first time getting into anything more advanced than N64.So if anyone can tell me how to fix this problem or can give me any tips on how to make ISO's easier to use that would be great!!!
Get WinRAR.
Put all the parts in the same folder, right-click one of them, then select "Extract here".
Then you can select it with "Run ISO".
Ok I put them all in one folder but know it says i need a PSX bios file and that i need to specify that location. Do i just select the mgs folder.
Get it here: http://www.emuparadise.org/biosfiles...s_SCPH1001.zip
Put it in the BIOS folder that should be in the same one as the emulator. If it's not there, then make one and point the emu to it.
So put the MGS folder in bios with that file to?:booger:
No no, the MGS folder is fine on its own. Just put the bios file in the bios folder.
OK, lol, I bet I seem like a retard but this thing is givin me a hard time.Now did everything you told me and it starts to run butit just gives me a blank screen.
Guide for PSXeven:
http://www.emulation64.com/guides/15/
The pictures for that guide seem to be missing for some reason, but the info given should be enough.
Im using an ISO right now and it wont run.
Well, either read the guide to see what (if anything) you're doing wrong, or tell us what you're doing, and be more specific, so we can see if we can figure out what (if anything) you're doing wrong.
Here's the guide again:
http://www.emulation64.com/guides/15/
Btw, did you remember to extract the ISO from the rar files?
Ok I ran the emulator and the menu screen mentioned in the guide comes up.
All the plugins and whatever else are already choosen by default.
I click "Run ISO" and it does.
I tell it to run Mgs part1 and it starts.
And then......NOTHIN.The END!!
I told you to install WinRAR and then to extract the ISO. You can't play the game if it's not extracted. ;)
You know what my next question is right............
Where can I get WinRAR
I had it once but then I found 7-zip and I kinda found it useless.

7-Zip works just as well, if you still have it installed.Quote:

Like I said this is my first time running an ISO and I don't really know what Im doing yet. I just found out yesterday that you could play actual discs on an emulator, LOL. I tried the PAL verision of the original Resident Evil and it did'nt play right either. I also downloaded a PS2 emulator so that I can play a couple games I got off Ebay, Ya not havin such a great time with that either. Are DC Emulator's easier to use??? Can somebody tell me a good Emulator to use to get me started, any system it doesnt matter as long as its pretty basic stuff.:somb:
pSXFin for psx is the easiest to use.Quote:

PSXeven is good?
Been out of the latest and greatest in emulation for a while, but why hasn't anyone recommended ePSXe?
EDIT: Aside from the fact that he can't seem to unrar the files :p
PSXeven is basically like ePSXe as far as plugins and whatever go.
Alright I'll give those a try through out the week. So don't even bother with any of the newer systems (GC/ PS2/ XB/ PSP/ DS)
BEST EMULATORS
For PSX
ePSXe 1.6.0 and ePSXe 1.5.2 (for some Squaresoft games)
http://www.epsxe.com/download.php
PSXeven (similar to ePSXe, can play a few games ePSXe can't)
pSX Emulator (a.k.a. psxfin--not as compatible as the first 2, but easier to learn how to use)
http://psxemulator.gazaxian.com/
For Saturn:
SSF (best one, by far, but you need a higher-end computer to run some games at full speed)
http://evilboris.sonic-cult.net/SSF/...hp?x=minconfig
Yabause (not nearly as compatible as SSF. but system requirements are less than SSF's)
http://yabause.org/
Cassini (use this with Yabause, if you can't use SSF)
http://www.zophar.net/Files/Cassini10_Lite.exe
For DreamCast:
READ THIS: http://www.epforums.org/read-if-you-t43409/index.html
For NDS:
No$GBA (Best NDS emulator, needs a fairly fast CPU, especially for some games)
http://nocash.emubase.de/gba.htm
DeSmuMe:
http://desmume.org/downloads/
IdeaS:
http://www.ideasemu.org/
For PS2
PCSX2 (need a dual-core, preferably a Core2Duo and a higher-end gfx card or most games won't play at full speed):
http://www.pcsx2.net/
