anyone using a ps2 emulator in their cabinet?
severdhed:
i can't help but notice that there are of good fighting games available for the ps2 that arent really playable in mame, i know there are some ps2 emulators out there, i was just wondering if anyone was using them on their cabinets, and what kind of pc horsepower is required? I've got a phenom II x4 3.2ghz processor in my cabinet, but i'm using the on-board radeon hd4200 graphics. I would assume that i'd have to upgrade the graphics card to get these games to be playable, but i don't know where to start. i dont want to spend an ton of money on a video card just for a few games. so, is it worth my time and money to try to get the ps2 emulation working?

You would be better off buying a PS2 Phat, modding it and get a cheap Composite2VGA.

i already have a ps2 and an xbox i could put in the cabinet and i'm using a LCD tv for my monitor so i could easily handle the video/audio...this issue i have is interfacing the controls. I have a 4 player panel using an ipac 4. i know there are console adapters for the ipac, but from the looks of them, they are only for the ipac 2. plus then there is all the switching cables, tv inputs etc just to play those games....if the emulator works, then it only makes sense to use it so it is just a matter of switching mala to another game list. (trying to make it easy for my kids)

whats the harm of downloading pcsx2 (www.pcsx2.net) on the mame machine, and running a game on it? I plan to run t on mine but Im still rippin ISOs.

That is the plan, I need to rip some isos, but my cab pc is busy creating mame video snaps for the next long while, might not get to try it for a day or two..I was just trying to see if anyone else had tried it already
