PS2PSXe public preview (Feedback and Discussions)

@ElPatas, thanks for providing this piece of information. Now I know what to look for when people report this issue. Internal HDD is where this issue exists. If the member above would have said his way of loading the emulator, we could have probably explored the idea that it could be only related with the Internal HDD.

I will include your bug report in the Tutorial I am constructing. I am wondering if you could help me write up a tutorial on how to install and run this emulator in Internal HDD? If they are any specific things we must make sure to run or do? Will the GUI version work? Or do we have to work on scripts like radshell or other?

Thanks in advance! :)

Oh, and this OPL version still breaks up my OPL themes. :(

I did the following: Copied the folder and cdr spuhw plugins to the folder of your emulator and default.cfg (my setup another PS2PSXE), the emulator is running fine now, thank you all for help.

:) And you still didn't tell us where you run the emulator from! :facepalm:

USB?
Internal HDD?
Network?

There are attached all public releases so I don't see anything wrong to add some few more progenitors. I have also bind all old releases into one (because all use the same files (in the same versions)), difference is only with R202 because this one have updated some old files (and in your bundle, you unnecessary add two modules which are no longer used in R202 + missing second Spanish translation). Details in bundle_info.txt.

Fantastic! Thank you for your contribution!! :)

Now if only one of us can go to ffriever house and get his r209, that would make it sweet! :)

I am running for the USB, I discovered the problem that Jay-Jay, is that the emulator is not creating the default file CFG, when put to save the configurations, I did was copy the file to the default CFG folder of the emulator, now they're saving perfectly. It's the same problem with the version of the bundle, but decided already doing the same thing.

Ok. I did not really understand what you said, but I am glad you fixed it. At least now I know that you run it from USB. :)

Well, in this case, the problem solved of pmaster, is not the ones i described related only to the internal HDD.

In the first versions of the emu, the USB and internal HDD worked only with radshell, but after introduced the GUI
(i think in r188) is used the GUI.

For the tutorial the internal HDD uses the GUI like the USB devices, all the explanations of "PS2PSXe GUI Tutorial"
are the same for use it with the internal HDD and USB devices.

And for a specific tutorial you can take the three steps you made for the USB devices and change the first one,
or merge the two devices in one and explain the first step is different.

In USB the files be stored in the root of the entire device, the internal HDD needs a data partition for put in
the files.

For create a data partition:

Run uLaunchELF
Goto FileBrowser > MISC > HDDmanager
Press R1 and select Create

I have mine named PS2PSXe, and i created a folder inside with the name of EMULATOR where i copied all the
files of the emu with uLE.

For the games i do not created a folder, simply i put them in the root of the partition.
This is the route of my partition:

hdd0:/+PS2PSXe/EMULATOR/

For search the games in the internal HDD is needed look in hdd0:/.

And this is all, there is no more specific things in the internal HDD for install and run the emu.

There is a few actions for the GUI which are not selectable and visible, i see in the USB tuto, you
said press the off button of the console for quit the emu, and you don't need that.

One important action is use the SELECT button in the main screen of the emu, it opens a screen with all the devices you have
available, and then you can select the BOOT.ELF of uLE for quit the emu or any other ELF for exit.
This button is described in the "ONE BIG, FAT ISSUE" section, which is used also for fix the problem about the bug in the
initialization code for the pad when you quit the emu and reload the GUI.

Regards.

Script for unbundling. Place it outside "R33 to R198" and "R202" folders and run.

Fantastic! Thank you for your contribution!!

Now if only one of us can go to ffriever house and get his r209, that would make it sweet!

Only I can do is reminding him about this few times per day. ;)

Anyway, as I remember, if ffg promised something, he will do it.

Berion, sorry for the noob question, but what is the purpose for this "unbundling"? Should I include this info on the Tutorial?

The purpose is having every, fully functional version in separate folders. Nothing special, so, probably no, it's nothing important.
