FFVIII epsxe configuration help

I need some help configuring my epsxe for ff8... Here are my system specs-

Intel Pentium D, 2.80 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce FX5200, 256MB VRAM
1 GB RAM
Microsoft Windows XP Professional

I am currently using epsxe 1.60 with the graphics plugin, Pete's OGL2 plugin and eternal SPU for sound... I was wondering what the best configuration for highest clarity would be i.e., what settings, what shaders,etc... Please Help!!!

Thanks in advance

Re: FFVIII epsxe configuration help

Apparently the workers of EPSXE are working on The PS2 emulator..and they throw away the EpsxE project...i heard that its still on a beta phase but it works..however i cant get that thing to work..hmmm
Well if you have any news about that tell me something...
And i cant configure the emulator too..but the problem is with the Open GL...You have to find a new plugin equal to the original PSONE/PSX..i havent find it...Stay cool

Uh, ePSXe 1.7 was released on May 24th this year so apparently they haven't given up on it yet

suhas2112, you might want to check out the ePSXe forums:

Dunno if you're running a CD or ISO, but these should do both fine. Looks very clean with these setting (compared to how it looks on the PS1 anyway ). I think it was F5 you press for the controller, but mines started to do it auto for some reason.

My PC is 4 years old so it will probably run better on yours.

Re: FFVIII epsxe configuration help

These are the settings I use. The game runs fairly well on my laptop with these. The only downs on them I see on my computer are the following 2:

- The pause splash screen doesn't appear;
- Battles take 1 or 2 more seconds to load.

Still, I prefer these to having choppy graphics.

for ff8, these settings work great for epsxe 1.7, including using the pec. good call.

Re: FFVIII epsxe configuration help

Gumdrop, your settings we're right on for me. i heard that people think epsxe 1.5 is the only way to run this game, but 1.7 and your settings work perfect. also, it helps to have a good system... at least it doesn't hurt.
