Problems with ePSXe and Multi-disc games

Hello everyone!

I have a problem since years and i never couldn't fix it.

I use Windows 7 64 bits. I use HyperSpin 1.4.16 with Rocker Launcher 1.2.0.1. For Playstation games, i use ePSXe 2.0.0. Everything goes perfect, i can launch games from HyperSpin or RocketLauncherUI .

The problem is with multi-disc games. When i try to launch a game (for example, Galerians, that has 3 cd's), a ePSXe window pops up and ask me for a ISO image.

I know this is a common problem, but i read a lot about it and can't fix it. If i go directly to the emulator .exe and open it, and then i go to load an image, it works perfect. The problem is when i try to launch it via Rocket Launcher (obviously it won't be launched in HyperSpin either)

For more info, i name the roms this way:

Galerians (USA) (Disc 1).bin

Galerians (USA) (Disc 2).bin

Galerians (USA) (Disc 3).bin

And that's all.

I think that another problem will be "change-disc" on the fly, but first i need to fix this.

I hope someone can help me! Thanks!

In Rocketlauncher, go to Sony Playstation, then settings, multigame and make sure enable = true

Or if you want it enabled globally for all systems, global, settings, multigame and make sure enable and on launch are both set to true.

Then it should work by giving you the option of disc to play when game is selected.

Thank you Cataclysm. I have done that some time ago but the problem continued. Yesterday i found a solution. 

I enabled the use of virtual drives (using Daemon Tools) and that way the game load perfectly. I tried with .iso images and worked perfectly, and in the case of .bin images, they NEED the .cue too (editing correctly the path inside the .cue file). I tried with the same games but compressed in 7z, and it worked fine!

Now i need to try to swap discs, that would be a challenge. You say that if multigame is enable, Rocket Launcher should ask which disc i want to play?

Thank you!!

yes, both hyperspin and rocketlauncher will bring it up on screen, it brings up all 3 discs (in your example) on screen when selecting that game, then you choose which disc to play

Great! What should i do with the wheel?? For example, i must put an entry "Galerians (Disc 1)" only, and that game will pop up the menu, or i need to put "Galerians" without (Disc 1)? What about the database? Perhaps i need to "hide" the others discs right?

Can you tell me some example? Thanks a lot!

Nico.

It worked ok!!

But now i have one problem when changing discs from the PAUSE menu. I select the correct CD but ePSXe pops up a window telling me to press "ok" to mount the disc, and RocketLauncher gives the error "Change Disc Option ahk_class #32770"

Any idea about that??

Thank you!
