These are The PSEmu Pro plugin spec is used for dozens of emulators and many plugins were written for them. While the PS1 emualtors [[epsxe]] point of the spec is to allow a plugin to work in all emulators, various extensions or hacks have been added to some plugins and [[pcsx-r]]emulators causing incompatibilities. Both use The following are the same recommended plugins to use and the info can be used for setting up bothcomparisons between them.

These work in The two recommended plugin emulators are [[PCSX-Reloaded|PCSX-R]] and [[ePSXe]]. Since ePSXe added support for most PCSX-R exclusive plugins with 2.0, the main difference between them now is that PCSX-Rsupports CPU overclocking ([https://github.com/SonofUgly/PCSX-Reloaded SonofUgly's fork] only) though ePSXe introduced it in later versions.

It's a light-weight plugin with a lot of options, such as the ability to switch the bindings of the cross and circle buttons around for Japanese imports. It doesn't have any button binding options, but since it's meant for mapping an emulated DualShock controller to an actual DualShock controller, you don't really need to rebind anything. You can also edit the analog stick deadzones.

These PS1 emulators do not use plugins, in case you want something that ''just works'' and is more accurate.
