    Default Struggling to get Constructor running

    Okay, so a friend reminded me about the old ps1 game Constructor, and I decided I just HAD to play it. I downloaded the epsxe 1.80 and after a lot of blood, sweat and tears, finally figured out how to get it running. I managed to get Crash Team Racing and Digimon World working fine so I know I am on the right track.

    However Constructor does not work (I downloaded it on this site), the screen just stays black after I open the ISO file or the CD file, depending on which way I do it.

    People say that it works better on 1.7 so I downloaded that but for some reason I cannot get 1.6 or 1.7 working to save my life, only 1.8.

    So I guess my perfect solution would either be getting this game working on 1.8 or fixing 1.7 and hoping it works on there. (When I downloaded 1.7 it came with no BIOS or Plugins even though I downloaded the BIOS and Plugin verion, maybe that has something to do with it)

    I hope this isn't all too confusing. Btw I run Windows 8 with a nvidia geforce so I have been running at a low screen resolution to help the games out.

    So what issues are you having exactly with 1.6/1.7? Missing .dll files? Missing plugins?

    You could try one of these copies listed here on the main site;

    ePSXe 1.6 + Plugins

    ePSXe 1.7 + Plugins

    Both startup fine out of the box on my windows 7 machine (should be the same with 8), although the 1.6 pack will require 7zip to extract. If you need it you can get it here;

    "I think that the problem with this video is it is highly derivative of many popular bands within the genre. Although when viewed on its own merits, it does have a deeper groove. However what it has in groove, it lacks in originality. One can't help but be reminded of such bands as Pearl Jam, White Zombie, Suicidal Tendencies and other bands that bear the mantle of so called "Alternative Rock". One is even reminded of Lorie Anderson when she wore curlers. Hehehmhm! This video speaks less to the heart and more to the sphincter. In closing, I think Korn would do well to learn more from -"
