PCSXR PCSX-R is the best choice if you want to play 3D games at higher resolutions. If you encounter glitches or you're emulating a 2D game, use [[Mednafen]] instead.
Undo revision 22955 by 176.88.21.109 (talk) No, not you again, Grrr. Stop getting hung up on slight differences between several alternative wordings. Here, most of us prefer "PCSX-R".
==Overview==
Check [[Recommended PS1 Plugins]] for plugin configurations.
The PGXP fork<ref name="RetroCollect">{{cite web|url=http://www.retrocollect.com/News/perspective-correction-comes-to-sony-playstation-emulation-via-pcsxr-pgxp.html|title=Perspective Correction Comes To Sony PlayStation Emulation Via PCSXR-PGXP|publisher=RetroCollect|accessdate=2018-08-10|date=2016-05-17}}</ref> adds texture perspective correction, reduced polygon culling, and reduced polygon jitter (more so than mainline PCSXRPCSX-R's GTE hack). Mainline has a major issue where a hack written for WipeOut causes slowdowns in many games. This is fixed by making the hack an option (in CPU settings; off by default), and also adds an option for CPU overclocking. It is recommended to use this fork until mainline fixes this issue.
===Features===
*Support for Libarchive (currently only macOS and Linux version)
*Save Rewind feature (currently only macOS and Linux version)
*Snapshot feature (Currently only Windows version)
==Keybinds==
===Default plugin on Windows===
The default GPU plugin that comes with PCSXR PCSX-R mostly doesn't work on Windows. Check [[Recommended PS1 Plugins]] for plugin configurations.
===Changing discs===
Some games (like Final Fantasy) allow you to save in the "Disc Change screen". For games that don't allow that (like Metal Gear Solid), disc switching can be a bit tricky:
# Press F9 to open Disc tray
# Press Esc to go to PCSXR PCSX-R menu
# Emulator → Switch ISO...
# Emulator → Run
## The physical CD will eject.
## Replace the CD that was ejected.
## Close the drive: PCSXR PCSX-R will wait for a new CD to be inserted and resume when a new one is available. '''NOTE:''' The current release version ''does not wait'' for a new CD. An SVN build will work better.
# For ISOs:
## A file selection window will come up.
