    Hi there. I used to have a lot of trouble with PS1 emulators and Duckstation was no exception. One thing I tried was to use DS with CD's which was unsuccessful. I just found this video and followed all your steps. Finally I can say that it's working like a champ and it's running smoothly. Thank you for putting this together. I must like this video

    Duckstation does have a cover downloader tool to automatically add the game covers to the games in your library. It is under the “Tools” menu when you open it.

      @@UrCasualGamer you’re welcome. Another thing I discovered as well is once the game cover is added, DuckStation generates a folder and automatically save the pictures in them. It will be a Duckstation folder in your Documents tab and you’ll find the saved covers there. The name of the folder will be called “covers” in all lowercase.

    Not sure what to call you so I guess we'll just go with Casual Gamer for now lol, but I would just personally like to thank you for this VERY SIMPLE and EASY setup and instructions. I never would of thought to use Duck Station! I've heard of it but had no idea how good it would work. You wouldn't believe the amount of trouble I was having and how many emulators I tried just to emulate Tomb Raider lol. I was about to give up so thanks for that! You earned a subscriber for life!! Im hoping you also have a tutorial for how to emulate PS2 and XBOX 360......but I won't hold my breath on that one LOL. I look forward to seeing and learning more from your tutorials. Thanks again!

      @lazoali9555 4 месяца назад

      ePSXe, even with the latest version, is severely outdated since it hasn’t been updated since 2016 I believe. DuckStation is a lot more user friendly and has lots more features.

    In the Enhancements tab, I recommend experimenting with PGXP (Precision Geometry Transform Pipeline). First check Geometry Correction, Culling Correction, Perspective Correct Textures and optionally Preserve Projection Precision. This should improve polygon and texture distortion. However, results may vary depending on the game.

    bro you are at the top when it comes to trusted sources of info on emulation, i have a few others that i trust and will take in place should you not have a vid on what im looking for but for the most part you have all bases covered for us lol, I have been tinkering with emulators since around 1999 or 2000, but i stepped away for a long time from the PC side and was only able to emulate on my various androids over the years, just got my first PC in over 14 years a couple months back and seeing how far the emulation scene has come on this side of things is mindblowing, thanks for helping me get my setup up and running 😁💪💙

    Better than the emulator alone is to play Duckstation as a core inside Retroarch. That platform allows you to use PS1 shaders to get the intended developer image from their games like Castlevania Symphony of the Night. And it works just as well.

    @fookencoont411 2 месяца назад

    What we need is developers to develop plugins that utilize AI to remodel and upscale the fixed resolution sprites so that the fonts are also brought up to the same level as the 3d enhancements. On top of this I think a reshading retexturing and relighting upscaling AI plugin would be mean also which essentially could bring the graphics more closer to PS5 graphics still with the glorious nostaligia that all ps1 gamers love and revamping the ps1 ps2 ps3 games to a point where game developers make even more sales and gamers are over joyed with orgasmic gameplay!
