Great video. Loving all the content recently. Went straight into the pc and within half an hour I was playing spyro the dragon! I think the kids will like it too. I never had a PlayStation and felt I’d missed out a bit. Not now!
"Rip disks, or you can get them by other means"
*takes out pirate hat*
Aye aye, Captain Obvious!! lol
You can legally make copies of physical discs you OWN. especially "in court" if you have your 'Proof of purchase' along with it. You have the right to back up and protect your discs.
In law there are many bullshits going on however, it clearly spews a warning of ILLEGALLY making copies and doing other various illegal and malicious activities within that copy righted material..
@@kelynbrowen7034 Its not like they earn any money if i buy a used copy of final fantasy 7 instead. Almost abandonware.
Thank you for making this video, it really is a comfort having my favorite RUclipsrs putting it videos during this time being stuck inside and away from friends.
Great content man, well explained, clear, concise, and to-the-point, with all the information I need. Exactly what we need to set this up. Much appreciated
I found your channel last night and just want to tell you that I'm having an absolute blast watching your videos. This opened up a totally new world to me. I didn't realize emulation was so easy! I'll be able to go back and relive all (most of?) my favorites now! I've tried to play a few games on a PS2 that I bought, but the resolution sometimes sucks! No more!
Thanks man! I'm excited to try this while im stuck at home!
Thanks for the advice! Been wanting to upscale my PS1 emulation now that I have my LaunchBox build in my living room.
That looks amazing. Hope it works for Twisted Metal and Micro Machines as well. For some reason that is the two racing games we used to play on the PS1. Nostalgia times if it does work...
This guy's channel is awesome.thanks so much for this. I'm just getting into emulation and this channel has been a great source.
Thank you! I would love to see if you would do updated videos on emulator setups and best quality settings
With Beetle PSX on retroarch you got some more options to make games look even nicer by fixing the PSX specific jaggies (original PSX had trouble rendering straight graphics, Beetle PSX fixes it), hands down the best way to upscale PSX games for me
This is my first time hearing of the Mednafen PSX core having high resolution support. It's had a reputation for accuracy and compatibility for a while, but a few years ago it was still limited to native res.
I love the texture smoothing. Makes certain games that have issues the jaggies look way more modern. Unfortunately never did have the settings down correctly with my PC, but this person managed to get this title running nicely with the settings they listed in the video description . ruclips.net/video/L5-832DY2gc/видео.html
@@KyussTheWalkingWorm It's supports up to 16x upscale, to fix the polygons jitter of original hardware, you have "PGXP" settings, plus some texture filtering options, supersampling, dithering... I'm talking about "Beetle PSX HW" core, not the "Bettle PSX" though
it looks unreal, definitely my favorite option
@@Moukrea i'm not sure if epsxe handles the "anti polygon jiterring" function better or or worse than beetle but epsxe DOES have the setting too. but it's not in the main configuration tab.
HOLY MACKEREL! I didn't think it l'd make such a huge difference. Definitely going to do this!
that's actually the main reason why I play on emulators. ps1, snes, psp and I think even my n64 emulator are all upscaled to 4k. When I take my psp with me and start a ps1 game I think my eyes get cancer. It's such a shock every time from being used to 4k and than playing on original resolution xD
I feel the same way. That's exactly why I use emulators, to get the most out of my computer hardware and experience the games in a better light.
Yeah i have all my original consoles but emulate them anyway for 1080p except the wii, so a few weeks ago i wanted to play skyward sword and felt my eyes burning with the awful resolution
easy way play PC version game. not ps1 with emulator
this is why I prefer epsxe to mdenafen
believe it or not, the ps1 has better graphics than any emulator and run them smoother.
the scale stuff helped me a lot, I was having problems with fullscreen games and now I know why!!
I would love to see a side by side comparison of what looks good and what doesn't!
Thanks, great as usual! Can you please make up to date guides on the best emulators while the world is in lockdown for the foreseeable future? N64 PS2 next please :)
Thanks ETA!! I’m gonna try this when I get home from work. Hopefully it will clean up my favorite game Courier Crisis. Great video. I’m a fan.
how does it look?
I remember 1.5.1 back in the day, enjoyed a lot of games on it and 1.6.0 I think it was
Nice profile pic you have 😂😜😝🤣🤣🤣🤣✌🏻👌🏻
Thanks this was super helpful! Got me up and running with Tomba! real quick
Thanks! Very helpul! Now time to enjoy some Classic Jewels. Thank you very much :)
Thanks eta prime. This is a great time for these videos as we are all stuck at home! I hope you do an updated dolphin video for 4k. Thanks again... edit... your dolphin video from last year is still very relevant today as I followed it tonight and it is great!
Were not all stuck at home...some of us still need to work in the "essential" part of businesses. Those that are stuck at home, you guys have plenty of time to research and test settings yourselves ; )
Thank you, didnt know about this option
Thank you so much! I used a very old epsxe version from like 2008 or so and the quality was trash. I downloaded the newer version and used your settings and legend of dragoon is looking so nice.
Really informative video man. Appreciate it!
very well explained and very easy to follow! well done :)
Awesome! So many games I want to try out. Thx
Thanks a lot fo the video
What the spec of your PC??
Some games get so brighter and clean beautiful!
just subscribed your content is awesome
Loving these play in 4k videos im trying them all on nvidia shield 2017 Pro up to now awesome 👍😁😷
Nice results, looking to build myself a 6TB launchbox setup as we speak! I just wish we could use the word uprender rather than upscaling
THANK YOU. I kept wondering why when I attempt to play at 4K on my 4K monitor, it was always super zoomed in and I couldn't see half the game.
I had windows scaling set to 125%
THANK YOU ❤️
Too bad my Spider-Man playthrough is over, but my Spider-Man 2 playthrough should hopefully now be in full 4K 😁
wonderful tut mate
I've been using xpsxe for many years now. So I got a few tips.
It should be said though, if you're playing a 2D or something with both 2D sprites with 3d elements game, like Dragon Warrior 7. You may want to just leave the internal X and Y resolution as standard and just rely on "stretch to fullscreen" to properly scale the game and have it be as accurate as possible. Otherwise you get some jarring change of visual fidelity everytime you open a menu or a text box pops up.
Some people like to force a game into widescreen and it might work out fine. However there are games that do not play nicely with the resolution change like Digimon World. If you can't access an area you normally could, try to make sure the resolution is 4:3.
And lastly, you may come across a visual difference that you may not like and can't seem to change in the graphics settings. If that's the case, use a different (simpler) plugin. Pete has a lot of plugins and a few of them are built for upgrading certain 3D games which have built in filters that CAN NOT be changed.
Ultimately there is a bit of trial and error need to get the fidelity that suits your tastes, but it's worth it in the end. If you're stuck, search online to see what others setting are for your game or start from basics and change one setting at a time.
Good luck and have fun.
It’s called epsxe bro. Jeez
@@michalisdouskas Oh no, the spelling police has arrived. Shame you're 3 years too late.
@@AtaeruCDX I knew the emulator and every game way before you knew the alphabet kiddo so now cry and learn first the name of the emulator, then talk you moron 😂😂😂😂😂 xpsxe he says hahahahahaha. It’s ePSXe stupid 2 year old 😂😂😂😂
@@AtaeruCDX Shame you learned of the emulator 10 years after me and you don’t even know how to spell the name 😂😂😂😂😂
@@michalisdouskas OK. See ya once the plague is over in your timeline.
Thanks for the "can't scale" reminder! I couldn't figure out why mine wasn't displaying correctly! Much appreciated! Now if there were only an easy way to automatically turn off scaling when I use this emulator :)
A performance test against similar emulators in Linux would be cool. Maybe testing Feral Gamemode as well to see if it improves performance
A note on Windows DPI. You may be able to keep your Windows Display scaling percentage above 100% if you go into the compatibility options of the program's properties and override the High DPI scaling. Not for sure if that works, but, it's a thought.
Can't wait to try this!
I NEVER comment on videos unless they're fruitful. This seriously changed everything for me. Finally able to play my childhood games on my 1440 monitor and the graphics arent a bunch of pixels lol. Thanks man
Pbp format was really a revelation for emulation. It started with the psp and just grew, it really makes everything a lot cleaner. I just wish every game was convertable
Been playing ps1 games at hi-res for quite some time, and assuming the public is doing that as well.
Good to see a video tutorial guide, though, for helping newbies on how to do it.
Great video, thank you 😊
I was amused and surprised that You decided to make this movie because I have been using ePSXe for PS1 emulation for a long time. The only thing I would add is the configuration information through Xinput, where You do not need to set anything except Big Motor on Constant and Small Motor on Sine and we have full vibrations. In addition, everything works right away with the Dual Shock setting.
Great vid Dude!
Thank you for your videos!
ETA prime should be Playstation's consultant in their mini consoles! :-) lol
thanks uncle eta prime!!
Thanks for the video. I wanted to replay Vagrant Story and was looking into emulators, the there's so much conflicting opinion I just need to see real world results. I was experimenting with Mudnafen but I wanted to try and improve the visuals a little. But I find a lot of filters destroy the original artwork. Gonna give this a go!
Thanks man, it really looks amazing after this settings, Thanks a lot....
Great vid. I use this on my android phone and really enjoy it. On pc I'm using mednafen as its the stock emu included on the front end I use but it's a pain increasing graphics settings so I'm gonna use this for sure now as it's a lot easier to change settings.
It looks really good, but I love the charm of the graphics being all jaggy and crazy looking. I think it's one of the charms of the ps1. I don't remember other systems looking like this at all.
@5:09 i feel like you actually can leave your pc at whatever scaling mode and just exclude individual apps from the global scaling mode. by right klicking on either the shortcut icon or the real .exe of the software itself. somewhere in the compatibilty settings. i think it was in the same tab as the "run as admin" setting. sorry i cant check the exact detailed method bc i'm not at a pc rn
great video bro.
Love the video can't wait for the red magic 5g emulation video!!
Nice guide, but I found all the filtering and other settings gave me mixed results with a sprite game like Castlevania: SOTN. Any recommendations for that game?
Excellent, thank you.
ETA, when are you getting your hands on the 8Bitdo Sn30 Pro+ Bluetooth Gamepad?
ETA! You should really try PCSXr with the PGXP plugin for perspective correction and the xBRZ capabilities on the textures. It will blow your mind!
Awsome video and many thanks for sharing it! I folloed your steps thoroughly but it didnt run on HD. I tried 2 games, Disney's Hercules and FIFA 2000. Hercules was running smooth but on the SD. The FIFA tho was problematic, laggy on video and sound. My system: 8GB RAM, nvidia geforce GTX 960 G1 gaming, i5 4690K. Is there a problem with my system or should i try different settings ? The video settings are just like you showed in this video
The games that i've downloaded are type ".bin.ecm" if this provides you any valid info
Very good video! After following it, the PS1 games looked almost like Dreamcast games or N64 games. However I did have to use 0-1 threads because games stuttered on the 2-3 thread setting. I have a Ryzen 5 1400, a 4 core 8 threaded CPU. Upgrading the graphics plugin might help, but overall very good tutorial.
I wish I had read this comment earlier.😝
Was hoping this video would cover the crazy stuff retroarch is adding to their psx emu, like perspective correct texture mapping
Me watching in 144p : I see no difference
On Lakka there's an option for some supersampling, can't check the name now but it works just fine with a Pi4 on Digimon World.
Yes! I've been waiting for a video like this. Especially for the psx Games, especially since I got the amazon firestick 4k back when you did that video as a better alternative than the PS1 classic. Can all this resolution tweaking be accomplished on the firestick via retroarch the same way ? Or otherwise?... thanks
Ps, what kind of specs do you need on a pc.or.laptop to run this at.1080p or 4k? (Retroarch and ps1.emulation as shown?)
I agree with some of the commentaries, Retroarch PSX emulation is good too, you might want to check it out, as for the shaders it uses, I think they are both equivalent on the long run. Didn't test any other games than Driver and Legend of Dragoon but surely I'll be backing up my library some day to see the games in HD :)
I tried the OpenGL 2.9, and it does a great job with Tekken 3 in the 1080P.
At first I was scratching my head, wondering how it looked much better. Then I realized... RUclips defaults at 480p lol
Turned it back on to 1080p, and yeah, huge difference!
Changed it over and it looked amazing but had som decent lag once into gameplay. Are ther any settings you suggest to tone back down again to hopefully fix this?
epsxe can smooth polygon warping too, makes it look even nicer
Hey ETA, you should consider requesting a review unit of the ASUS Zephyrus G14, with the new AMD Ryzen 4900HS. There's already tons of reviews on RUclips, but I'd love to see one focused on emulation. RPCS3 would be particularly interesting.
You can fix full screen scaling by clicking on two boxes in properties called disable full screen optimizations and override high dpi scaling behaviour (application) instead of changing your windows scaling :)
one helpful tip, especially if you're using a 4k TV instead of monitor, you can still use 150 or 200 text size in windows 10, the trick is right click shortcut to epsxe, compatibility settings, change high DPI, then lastly, check bottom box, override high DPI scaling behavior --> application , hit ok, and boom no more off centered psx games :)
Great Video!! you could have use the Playstation Classic controllers too.
great video instruction thank you
If anybody is having any performance issues maybe try setting the threading mode to "0: 1-Thread" because this made a difference for me.
The games look like a new version with these setting.
thanks man!
Upscaling is cool but the PS1 games dosn't have many polygons so is only a small improvement. Can u put some color filters or do some texture mods on those games? What would be cool is if we can one day do reshader on those old games and do some fake ray tracing on those old games!
The tips made it look amazing, I am noticing some sound popping now that I didnt have before. Any ideas how to fix?
at 5:25 if you want to scale your desktop and not have EPSXE screw up, go in the executable properties --> compatability tab --> change high DPI settings --> override high DPI
thanks so much!
Would love to see an updated psp setup vid
thank you a lot ! :D
got more succes with the newer plugin, got a weird stutter with opengl2.0, either way, settings are identical, great guide!
that`s a good one.thx
Dude, please make a dolphin video for adding HD textures🙏🙏🙏
Thank you ETA. Me and my boys have been playing OddWorld Abe's Oddysee. I will see if these will make it look any better or even work on my laptop!
Made the game look a bit better. But puts a weird outline around Abe.
stirch9, I’m curious if not using 2xSaI will rectify this problem.
@@IndignantSkeptic well I will try it out see what can be done.
hi there would you do video on other consoles like the sens and ps3 and ps2 please and thanks for this video i appreciate it
Thank you! :)
that collin mcRae very lit 😱
Hello Eta im pretty new to the emulator scene but im having trouble upscaling gba,nes,snes,and ds games inside launchbox with retroarch is it possible if you do a follow up video on how to upscale games with a step by step tutorial?
wow great man!
I wish you could help how to configure Steering Wheelpad config under epsxe for this too....
I bought a PS2 to 1080i component cable and it looks great on PS2 and PS1 games.
thanks my dude Treasure Planet for PS1 just looks better now
Another great one!!
Great visual in Loaded :D!!!
But I tried several games and I can't get any music :(
What can I do?!
I'm on an older PC here. My games were running terribly until I set my gfx card vram manually. The autodetect wasn't working for me I guess. Something to take note of if you're getting real bad fps. It's in the Config > Video tab he starts working in @4:40 in the video. Drop down menu in the Textures area.
Please do this for other emulator's as well.... By the way... loved this video though.
Got any good tweaks for the PCSX2 as well?
3 things that helped completely eliminate all audio & sound crackling using the latest version of ePSXe (tested playing MediEvil):
Options > CPU Overclocking 1x
Options > CPU Interpreter (Slow)
Video Settings > Threading Mode (1-Thread)
The third one took me a while to figure out!
Been getting some crackling myself, had this program for years and after an update I got audio crackle. Will let you know how it goes for me, Cheers!
THANK YOU! now Xenogears is playable again for me lmao
If you are having problems with laggy game play and sound. Try turning off subpixel precision under options, gte hacks. This worked for me.
