* Delete key: By pressing the Delete key, you can move the information bar from the output window in the actualy display (like in GSsoft) and restore it on the window by pressing it again.
* Hit Ok to save your changes or cancel to go back to the main Configuration window.
Select ZeroGS v0.96.0 and press the Configure button.
* ZeroGS is a new DirectX 9 plugin developped by ZeroFrog and is aimed only for modern graphics cards which support pixel shaders 2.0 or higher. As noted before if your card does not meet that requirement you will get an "Error opening gs plugin" message and pcsx2 will terminate. Just like GSdx9 it comes in 2 versions, a normal one and an SSE2 one. Only IF your processor supports SSE2 (Pentium 4/Core Duo or Athlon64/FX) use the SSE2 version since it will be faster for you.
* Interlance Enable: When this is checked some interlacing issues will be resolved (screen "shaking") although some games look better with this disabled. You can toggle it while running a game by using the "F5" key.
* Bilinear Filtering: When this is checked the plugin will filter the display, smoothing out edges. This will generally drop your FPS dramatically except if you own a very powerful graphics card. You can toggle it while running a game by pressing and holding "shift" then press "F5".
* Anti-aliasing: Here you can choose the level of anti-aliasing you want the plugin to use, to make edges smoother. You can toggle this while running a game by using the "F6" key. Note that this might reduce speed.
None: Will not use any level of anti-aliasing.
2x: Will use 2X anti-aliasing.
4x: Will use 4X anti-aliasing.
* Wireframe rendering: When checked the plugin will only render in wireframe,so you'll just see some polygon lines here and there Wink
You can toggle it while running a game by pressing and holding "shift" then press "F6".
* Capture avi: You can capture a video of your gameplay just like the GSdx9 plugin.Press "F7" and a window will appear for codec selection.For the time being you will only be able to use XviD encoding since the rest of the codecs will crash the plugin.After you select it,you can configure the codec by pressing the configure button.Press ok and the recording process will start.Press "F7" again to stop it.The video will be saved in the PCSX2 root directory as "zerogs.avi".
* Save snapshots as BMPs(default is JPG): What it says, with this enabled snapshots you take with "F8" will be saved as BMP files and not as JPGs files which is the default. The snapshots you take with "F8" are located in the /snaps folder of your pcsx2 directory.
* Fullscreen: Pretty simple,if you have this checked the plugin will show the output full screen instead of windowed.If you have it disabled and already running a game you can press and hold "alt" then press "enter" to go full screen.\
* Default Window Size: You can check the window size ZeroGS will have when you run it by default. Options are 640x480,800x600,1024x768,1280x960,choose what you like best and note it will not affect speed.
* You can press and hold the "shift" key and then press the "f7" key to toggle on and off the Frames Per Second display in ZeroGS's window.
Sound
From v0.9.2 you will only be able to use PEOPS SPU2 plugin,which has been greatly improved compaired to older versions.
SPU2Null is not included in the release and will NOT work with the newer version
PEOPS SPU2 is still in early stages but in many cases it produces sounds and sometimes even music. Also it might help some games progress more if they get stuck in some SPU2 function.
Highly recommended to use,but you will notice a 1-2 FPS drop if you use it. Note that if your CPU does not support SSE2,you might need to use the build provided in PCSX2.net download section.
Pete has saved me the time and has included a detailed description of each setting on his plugin in the included readme file, so use that to configure it properly Smile.
First Controller/Second Controller
Here you will be able to use 2 plugins, SSSPSX Pad v1.7.0 (from
PCSX2.net - News) and PadwinKeyb v0.9.0
Select SSSPSX Pad v1.7.0 and press the Configure button.
The second controller field is totally obsolete,since you can now configure both plugins from hitting configure with either plugin selected in either First Controller or Second Controller field.
Now hit Configure to start configuring SSSPSX Pad:
* Here, you simply press on each button's name and input the key you want to assign to it.If you want to clear a key from being assigned somewhere you can click on the respective button and wait until the "Timeout: " timer reaches 0. Then the selected key will be assigned to NONE again.
* Click on the PAD1/PAD2 tabs on the upper left corner to swich from configuring controller 1 to controller 2 (you don't need to do it from the main configuration screen).
* SSSPSX Pad supports analog controllers.You can assign your analog axis in the "LX,LY,RX,RY" buttons.LX is for Left analog X-Axis,LY is for Left analog Y-Axis,RX is for Right analog X-Axis,RY is for Right analog Y-Axis.
* The R3 and L3 buttons are the buttons on the analog stick of the ps2 controller, R for right and L for left as usual.
Select PadwinKeyb v0.9.0 and press the Configure button.
* ince release 0.7 Analog support has been added to PCSX2,which hasn't been mentioned anywhere yet Tongue.
