Xenogears: no sound during animated cutscenes (epsxe)

Hello,

I wanted to replay this amazing game since it's been so long, and the game is running fine, but I noticed that there was no sound in the opening cutscene at all, or when they show the Xenogears logo after you launch the game..

However, there is sound when i'm actually playing the game, the issue seems to only affect animated cutscenes..

Is there any way I can fix this? I am using epsxe (I downloaded the "Ultimate Pack")

I'm using the french translated iso.

Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks!

Try to launch with the .cue rather than .bin file. If that doesn't fix it, check out the recommended settings at psxdatacenter.com

Try their audio settings and see if that fixes your sound.

Thanks for the answer, I tried running the .cue but there was still no sound during the opening cutscene.

I'm using Pete's OpenGL Driver & epSxe SPU core as it says on the website but no success..

I also tried some other audio plugins such as Eternal SPU plugin lite 1.41 but I still have the same issue. :(

Anything else I could try?

I noticed that the website shows ePSXe v1.7.0 under emulation compatibility, I am using epsxe 2.0.5, could that be the issue? Even though that doesn't sound right lol.

Ok, I found the issue.

The problem was the iso itself, I just downloaded another one and I can now hear the sound in cutscenes.

No french translation, though. :(

But problem solved!
