So, the other day I felt like paying Final Fantasy IX again, only this time I wanted to play it on the PSX emulator. I created an ISO file out of the CD's using Alcohol 120% but when I open them on Epsxe 1.6.0 I always get a black screen and nothing happens. I've tried different plugins and different programs to create the images but it didn't help. It's really frustrating since I've had no problems running other games like Thousand Arms, Breath of Fire III, Metal Gears Solid... Am I doing something wrong or should I be doing something that has not occurred to me? Please advise me. Any help is welcome.
Cheers

plugin specs. and how you are trying to use the Images, (mounting on a virtual drive/Plugins). Gfx plugins. etc

btw, are you using pSX emu or EPSXE??

He's trying ePSXe as stated in the thread title...
If you use the Pal version of FF9 you will need to use the ppf patch... just search FF9 ppf and unpack it into your patches folder of ePSXe, that should solve the problem!

I'm using:
Emulator: ePSXe 1.6.0 or ePSXe 1.5.2 (tried them both)
Video: Pete's OpenGL2 Driver 2.7
Sound: Eternal SPU Plugin Lite 1.41
CDRom: ePSXe CDR WNT/W2K core 1.5.2.

And I just do File > Run ISO. As for GFx plugins...I have no idea

But I understand I need the patch for my region. Since I live in Portugal will a UK PAL patch, or some other, work?

FF9 works just fine for me (NTSC). You have a Portuguese PAL version? Not sure if the UK patch will work, but don't be afraid to try it.

btw, just a friendly reminder, try not to double post for future reference.
