New overview sector. PCSX2 also gained 64-bit support for all major platforms.
Another method to get around this is by running GSdx in hardware rendering, doubling the vertical resolution (if a game displays 640x480 on the emulator window, set vertical res to 960) and selecting bob-tff for interlacing. This can eliminate interlacing artifacts in most cases, although issues with upscaling, as well as using hardware emulation over software, can arise.
==Overview==
Code for 64-bit support for all major PC versions of PCSX2 including Windows, Linux and macOS was in development from [https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/3451 June 07, 2020]; and both 32-bit & 64-bit builds for all three desktop PC systems started being available on [https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/3451#issuecomment-653720205 July 04, 2020].<ref name="Reddit_1">{{cite web|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/hkzzv2/pcsx2_now_has_a_64_bit_version/ |title=PCSX2 now has a 64 bit version |publisher=Reddit|accessdate=2020-07-06|date=2020 Jul 04}}</ref> Eventually, this has the potential to reduce the so-called 'technical debt' (Consisting of hacks built in for some games) that still cause issues in 32-bit builds; and broaden the emulator's support for more platforms and devices such as support for ARM64 chips (Also for Mac too).
==Issues==
* Playing the game directly from your DVD drive, in which case you should [[Ripping Games|rip the game]] and play using the .iso instead (it's not advised to play directly from your DVD drive).
* Trying to play a game that isn't supported by the emulator, in which case you cannot do anything except trying another version of the game (PAL or NTSC-J for example).
* Trying to play a game with a massive or in some cases any EE overclock applied, in which case turn it back down the speedhack menu.* try Try to configure modo clamping to Completo, in the emulator settings.
If PCSX2 still crashes after doing all of the above, check that you aren't using any speed-hacks and that your system is stable and not overheating especially if you are overclocking.
==Lightgun Support==
Lightgun support is available in the pcxs2 emulator via a third party plugin called nuvee. His allows you to use and mouse or mouse compatible device (such as a lightgun) to play the large ps2 library of lightgun games. <ref> https://lightgungamer.com/pcsx2/ </ref> .
