playing backup PSX games from CD with emulator?
 
I have just installed evolutionX dash, avalaunch dash, Executer's latest bios on my v1.4 xbox with a Xenium chip. I have not yet installed a huge HD. I've also downloaded "bliss" -- apparently a Playstation emulator.

My xbox can read CDR, CDRW, DVD-R, DVD+RW (haven't tested DVD-RW or DVD+R)

{newbish question begins here}

What do I need to be able to play backup PSX games from the DVD drive?




thanks in advance

Ive never heard of bliss. And I dont think you can play them via a disc, from what I understand you must make them a .bin and .cue file.

I have the original image in bin-cue format still on the PC hard drive. What now? :)

Just run the emulator and direct it to the .bin file.

Some games are glitchy remember.

will try soon I hope. I've been looking for

scph1001.bin since my last post. the bios directory contains one text file with [a] google url

[edit]


I guess I'll take a stab at running it and hope I won't need that bios {weak grin}

if its a newer version of pcsxbox, yea u need the bios file
the older ones used to have it in the program file itself
i recommend u take that link off the post because i believe that theres a reason that pcsxbox hadda take it off too..
the games are glitchy.. yea... even with the newer ones

nochi 02-03-2004 12:55

I only want to play *one* game:

Intelligent Qube!

I tried the homebrew version for DreamCast but it was nowhere near as good :(



Soooo it's not ging to work without tie bios bin? :|

AXmichigan 02-03-2004 13:39

noooooope
u gotta run it off somethin right?

nochi 02-03-2004 14:37

yay it's working. Despite my best efforts to force SAVES and SCREENSHOTS to a directory under e\emulators\pcsxbox they keep ending up in e:\SAVES & E:\screenshots

Any idea how to force them? For now I think I'll test it from CD as it appears to have been intended :)

AXmichigan 02-03-2004 15:30

force them?

TylerDurden 02-03-2004 16:06

I think you'd have to edit your xml.




Tyler!

AXmichigan 02-03-2004 16:55

if by force u mean get it to play from a certain locatoin
then yea
tylers right

TylerDurden 02-03-2004 17:05
