Problem with ePSXemulator and FFVII

[Zeppo]

When I get to a fight, it doesn't show the box on the bottom of the screen where you select your attack and other actions.

Well, I'd say the problem is you didn't spend enough time memorizing the menus so you would have a workaround.   

Is the missing space just black/white/whatever?  Is more fight background in its place?  I know nothing about PSX emulators, but have you checked all the layer options (like ZSNES possesses) and other filters?  Have you checked other video drivers to see if the problem persists?  You may also need an later model BIOS for compatibility with epsxe.

Any other PCs that you can test the same setup on?

Id change your plugins... ff7 has game specific hacks in epsxe to make it run correctly..

Btw: Id recommend switching to PSX for your emulator of choice... Its pretty good and you shouldnt have any issues with FF7

Its CLI friendly so it will interface with MOST gaming front ends.
