Post by: Aaron on 2002-03-03 20:28:00: 1 - Go to http://www.ngemu.com and check out ePSXe, a Playstation emulator.

- or -

2 - Buy the PC version of FF8?

Post by: Sephiroth 3D on 2002-03-04 07:30:00: This is more of a tech-related question. It should of gone there.

Next: FF8 PAL, huh? That's a problem. Your best bet is to see if any of the PSX emulators fun FF8. (More than likely.) In EPSXe's case, try looking for a PAL video plugin.

If nothing else works, you should follow Aaron's advice and go buy the PC edtion.

Post by: Alhexx on 2002-03-04 15:31:00: Since you're from germany and your english is, as you told, not that good :roll: , here we go:

So, was du brauchst, ist zuerst ePSXe 1.50. Dort steht in der Hilfe-Datei folgendes:
Quote

You need to use a patched backup version, the original one is not working. To learn how to apply the so called "PPF Patches", consult the features section in this help me file, or Pete's CD plugin readme.

Du brauchst also noch einen PPF-Patch... den kriegst du z.B. hier:
http://www.consolecopyworld.com

(Ich denke, Paradox hat 'nen Patch dafÃ¼r herausgegeben...)

Ach, und du solltest unbedingt ePSXe 1.50 herunterladen...
(So, kommen wir zurÃ¼ck zum Englischen... :D)

Huh, did anybody else understand it? :naughty:

Post by: atzn on 2002-03-05 20:46:00: First, you need the ePSXe 1.50. The following is located in the Help file.
However, you also need a PPF-Patch.... it can be found here:
http://www.consolecopyworld.com

(I think Paradox has the patch as well)

And, you should obviously download ePSXe 1.50...
(Now, back to English :D )

Huh, did anybody else understand it? :naughty:

Darkness: No, it isn't (fortunately :D )

Title: FF8 on computer ? how ?
Post by: Alhexx on 2002-03-07 12:47:00: Ultima? You're not often in the Tech forum, are you? It is a FF7 .p file modeller, but since the .p format isn't hacked too far, there is no real working saving option...
