ePSXe (enhanced PSX emulator) is an emulator of the Sony PlayStation video
|
|
game console for x86-based PC hardware. It was written by three authors,
|
|
using the aliases "Calb", "_Demo_", and "Galtor". It has been described as
|
|
the best freeware Playstation emulator available.
|
|
|
|
ePSXe makes use of a plugin system to emulate GPU, SPU, and CD drive functions
|
|
* GPU: Most GPU plugins run with either Direct3D, OpenGL, or the
|
|
Glide API, and are available freeware or open source.
|
|
* SPU: The SPU plugins can emulate everything from music to sound
|
|
effects, with varying degrees of success depending on the plugin
|
|
settings, and of course the plugin being used.
|
|
* CD-ROM: ePSXe comes with a core CD-ROM plugin, but many others
|
|
are available for freeware download and many can emulate up to
|
|
seven different types of read modes.
|
|
* Input: The core plugin is sufficient, but there are others that
|
|
allow for more functionality. It is even possible to plug in and
|
|
use a DualShock controller with a USB adapter.
|
|
|
|
If you want to add plugins to the epsxe, go to $HOME/.epsxe, where you
|
|
will find the plugins directory. Note that this script installs many
|
|
needed directories owned by root:games and writable by that group; if you
|
|
want a user to be able to install plugins, then make sure they are in the
|
|
games group.
