How to include Xebra emulator and roms [+Tutorial] #313

Open ghost opened 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

Hello, friends! I don't know anything about programing, but i was trying to see if i could manage to use Xebra with Ice. I did manage to find a solution, but it's not the perfect method, is more like a workaround.

If anyone knows how to make it work like the other emulators, please let me know.

Ok, here's what i did:

consoles.txt: [Playstation] nickname=Playstation emulator=Xebra extensions=bin

emulators.txt:

[Xebra] location=C:\Emulators\Xebra\XEBRA.EXE command=%l C:\Emulators\Xebra\XEBRA.EXE -FULL -IMAGE "C:ROMs\Playstation\Crash Team Racing [SCUS-94426].bin" -RUN1

[Xebra] location=C:\Emulators\Xebra\XEBRA.EXE command=%l C:\Emulators\Xebra\XEBRA.EXE -FULL -IMAGE "C:ROMs\Playstation\Vigilante 8 - 2nd Offensive [U] [SLUS-00868].bin" -RUN1

If you pay attention, you will notice that I wrote "one code" for each game, and that's basically what you will have to do. For each game you wanna play, you will have to put a new code in the "emulators.txt", but you will have to point out the name of the rom and where it is located, changing the "C:ROMs...." part.

It's also important to notice that you have to point to the ".bin" file, not .cue.

Xebra it's considered the most accurate PS1 emulator to date, so it's always good to have him working with Ice!

Hope i could help, cheers!

Hi Ghost.

To add each game without having to type each one, you can do this:

[Xebra] location=C:\Emulators\Xebra\XEBRA.EXE command=%l -IMAGE %r -RUN1 -FULL

I know this is almost a year old but maybe somebody on Google will find this. I've made a separate issue so hopefully Scott will put it on the site.
