Hey anyone help me out. Got it to show up in the Lazarus list, and games, when i run it from Lazarus it only opens EPSXE and u have to use the mouse to hit RUN ISO. Is there a way to do it so it loads auto?? I have tried playing in command mode but it only load EPSXE not into the game? ie) E:\EPSXE.exe G:\PSX ROMS\dead or alive.ISO
thanks in advance.

I am not familiar with EPSXE exactly, but the rule of thumb is if you want something to launch under Laz/DragonKing, make sure you know you can do it from a command prompt manually first. Stick to debugging your problem there before trying the FE. If you can type it in at a prompt and get it to launch the right way .. there is a 99% chance you can get it setup with a Laz wrapper to make it work.
#1 Suggestion .. use -loadbin <file> - Loads a specified ISO image file.
#2 Suggestion .. play with quotes around your rom name .. could help with weird space handling.
#3 Suggestion .. once you can launch at command prompt, read up on Laz command-line wrapper.
Good luck!

Hey tried many things
epsxe -loadiso G:\PSX\Dead or Alive.iso
epsxe -loadiso "G:\PSX\Dead or Alive.iso"
epsxe -loadiso "1.iso"
epsxe -loadiso 1.iso
epsxe -loadiso "1.iso" PS-EXE
epsxe -load iso 1.iso PS-EXE
nothing works.. any ideas????

Demon-seed,
I've had this working from the commandline, and from what i remember it took me an evening to get it figured out (right pain in the --I'm attempting to get by the auto-censor and should be beaten after I re-read the rules--!). I don't have the shortcuts on the pc I'm at now, but if you can wait till tomorrow I'll grab them off my other box and post them here.

The faq has "-loadbin" instead of "-loadiso" .. Try that.

tried it thanks though.
I would appreciate it the post when u can check your other box.
thx

Couldn't find that shortcut I mention but just had a quick play with it and this seems to work :)
d:\path\to\epsxe152\epsxe -nogui -loadbin "d:\emu\psx\isos\Soul Blade.img"
Note: loadbin not loadiso, and the -nogui switch hides the interface window and pressing escape will exit.

Also, this site has a whole heap of good info for PSX emulation (and others)

Why not just use the Lazarus wrappers? They can be used with other programs from what I understand. The whole point of the wrappers is to take programs that typically couldn't start with a command line and encases the program within another program that CAN be executed with a command line. Does that make any sense?

Yeah but there isn't a wrapper for ePSXe (as yet ;)), so in this case if you can get it working via the command line THEN you can use the generic command line wrapper to have it run in Laz/DK.
-
The wrappers are supposed to be configurable, aren't they? Why couldn't you just set up your own?
-
Anyone have the commandline wrapper configured for EPSXE?
My FE has a hard time launching these types of emu's by itself - it likes the switches to be at the end of the commandline.
-
I tried it it worked but how do i set it up in laz?
i tried
extension=.iso
path=E:\PSX\
exe=epsxe.exe
send rom path=
send exit keys=0
command line options;-nogui -loadbin
and it runs it like
epsxe.exe G:\psx roms\dead or alive.iso -nogui -loadbin
How do u set it so it runs right way? I am confused! thanks

Hey Guys,
Has anyone been able to look at this and get it to run correctly? I would appreciate someone who has success running Epsxe in Lazarus to email me or leave a msg. I really am excited to add it!
thanks very much
Jim

Haven't checked myself, but have you tried setting the exe as this, "exe=epsxe.exe -nogui -loadbin", then leaving the command line options section blank?
-
If you can't get it going with howards command line wrapper, give my generic command line wrapper a go.
You can easily configure it so that certain parameters appear before, and certain parameters appear after the
rom name.
You can find it at:

Drop me some feedback if you find it useful, or if you think it could do with some more features.
Cheers.

Guys,
I tired his CMD wrapper and wow! Poof.. I got epsxe running great in Lazarus! It runs and exits no problems! It was very easy to configure too! only one thing I would add is maybe a conversion list of ascii.. just so we do not have to look :) its awsome keep it up!
