==Review==
ePSXe is a plugin-based PlayStation emulator, though it comes with internal plugins for everything in additional addition to being able to us use the same plugins as other emulators. It supports multiple CD-ROM formats (.bin/.cue, multi-bin/cue, .mdf/.mds, .ccd/.bin/.sub, .pbp, etc), including sub-channel support and PPF patching on the fly. Multi-tap up to 8 players are supported.
There are versions for Windows, Linux , and Android. Linux builds are 32bit x86 only and are difficult to get running on most modern systems.
A real PlayStation BIOS is recommended but not required. ePSXe can run games without an official PS1 BIOS via [[High/Low level emulation|HLE]], but compatibility will be lower and memory card support limited.
VERY IMPORTANT: Save states done with a official PS1 bios BIOSes are NOT compatible with save states done with ePSXe HLE bios BIOS (Besides it uses a different namespace).
==Netplay==
* It's slightly (significantly still) prone to freezing/crashing/BSOD (in that order)
* Random, inconsistent FPS drops due to the server trying to keep everyone synced, sometimes stuttering. It's annoying, but rarely does it make it unplayable
* The emulator is based upon (ePSXe 1.60, a 10 -year -old version) lacks a lot of options, and emulation accuracy is low
* Everyone needs to have the exact same ROM version or netplay won't work (if it somehow does, it'll desync rather quickly)
* Everyone needs to have the exact same save file or no save file at all, or else it desyncs
# Replace the stock kailleraclient.dll with the P2P version (v0r7) IF you just want to play with 2 players AND you have a >100ms (>150ms tops).
# Place SCPH7502 (unzipped) inside the "BIOS" folder inside your emulator folder
# Place your video plugin, Eternal SPU , and Cyberpad in the "plugins" inside your emulator folder# Configure your emulator: map buttons (physical controller preferred!), change resolutions (no fulls creen fullscreen supported), apply filters (if you want them). Make sure you ONLY pick Digital or Analog, no rumble on, Multi-tap disabled and a blank profile for Controller 2
# Go to Config, then click Sound
# Click Configure
** F6 - Select what pad will be affected by key F5.
** F7 - Toggles between primary and secondary GPU plugin while playing a game.
* To make your life easier and to save game -specific configurations use the front-end [http://www.pbernert.com/epsxecutor1063-prerelease.zip ePSXeCutor].
* GameFAQs saves are in the dexdrive format (.gme), ePSXe can read those files, just select it as a memory card. If you plan to use the files in some other emulator use MemcardRex to convert it to .mcr or any filetype that is required by that emulator.
* To delete settings
*# If you are using Blade's plugins delete .ini files in the "configs" directory.
