first off id like to thank every one who as helped me :applaud:
im still having a problem with epsxe running isos within mala its fine running on its own
when i set -nogui -slowboot -loadiso it crashes and says encounted a problem
is there a way of telling mala to run just isos im really stuck
-
I don't use epsxe. I use psx for Playstation games which works great for me within Mala. If you decide to try psx instead, you would use the following command line:
-f "%path%\%rom%.%ext%"
-
where do i get that from

right got that tryed play it it say need a d3dx9.dll so got that put my bios in ran it but it goes straight to main menu memory card and cd player
-
ok got it to run a iso but it still goes to that menu part and its not full screen how do i sort that out please
-
it works great spot on
just one problem it wont go in to full screen its just windowed please tell me how to get it full screen
-
The -f in the command line that I gave you earlier is for full screen.
-
when i press alt entre it goes full screen no problems but when i put -f into the command line in mala the emu shuts down?
-
Hmmm...-f works fine for me using PSX 1.13.
BTW, thanks SGT for the PSX recommendation. I tried ePSXe but never could fix the huge amount of screen tearing I got, even after fooling with just about every option under the sun. I like PSX because it just works.
-
what command are you using and any pre cpmmands?
-
No pre or post commands. Just
-f "%path%\%rom%.%ext%"
-
ive tryed that but no joy works without the -f but not with ??
-
You have a space between the f and the " don't you?
-
yes
-
still not workinng with -f "%path%\%rom%.%ext%" just flashes up then off no errors or anything without the -f it works but i need to do alt entre to get full screen
im using a arcadevga graphic card and arcade monitor
-
Are you using version 1.13 of PSX?
Try running PSX from the command line thus taking Mala out of the equation. From the PSX directory, use something like:
psxfin.exe -f "C:\PLAYSTATION IMAGES\MedalHon.img"
...replacing the path to the images and the name of a game image with yours.
If that works fine in full screen, you need to post screen shots of your Mala configuration for PSX.
-
in mla when -f is there and i start the psx emu the screen just flashes and crashes
-
and when iu run it run command line it says cd not usable failed to open file
-
in mla when -f is there and i start the psx emu the screen just flashes and crashes
Yes, I understand that. Until you can figure out why it will not run by itself from the command line, there is no point in trying to get it to work from within Mala.
and when iu run it run command line it says cd not usable failed to open file
Please post:
1) the whole EXACT command line that you are trying
2) the directory from which you are running the above command line
3) the directory where your playstation images are
-
my ps1 emu is in
C:\Emulators\programs\ps1
my img are in
C:\Emulators\playstion 1 games
my cmd im trying from start run is
C:\Emulators\programs\ps1\psxfin.exe -f "C:\emulators\playstion 1 games\crash bandicoot.IMG"
but when i do this the screen just flashes on off on off on off
take out the -f and it runs
-
You need to actually be in the C:\Emulators\programs\ps1 directory when you run the command line. Instead of doing it like this:
C:\Emulators\programs\ps1\psxfin.exe -f "C:\emulators\playstion 1 games\crash bandicoot.IMG"
you need to do a CD command first which Changes to the directory where psxfin is located:
CD \Emulators\programs\ps1
Once you issue the above command, then issue this command:
psxfin.exe -f "C:\emulators\playstion 1 games\crash bandicoot.IMG"
Also check for mispellings and spacing differences. For example, in the line above is playstion really spelled like that in your folder structure?
-
from the command line with -f in the screen jsut just flashes flashes on and off again as it does in mala without -f runs fine :'(
-
What version number of psx are you running? According to the link below there was a problem with earlier versions, but it was fixed in 1.13:
http://psxemulator.proboards54.com/index.cgi?board=bugreports&action=display&thread=2238
Also in that thread, it says you CANNOT USE A CAPITAL F. I verified this with my setup. Make sure its a lower-case f.
-
its version 1.13 and im using -f lower case
-
Well since you cannot get the full screen mode to work outside of Mala, its obviously not a Mala issue. I would suggest going to the psx forum to try to determine what is wrong with your setup:
