* You will NOT be able to configure anything to analog movement with this plugin and you can only use the defaults:
To move the left analog stick: Press and HOLD the left mouse button and move the mouse as an analog controller.
To move the right analog stick: Press and HOLD the right mouse button and move the mouse as an analog controller. Note that this way BOTH PLAYERS' analog controllers will move simultaneously (like doing the same movement for both players)
Also you can use the left mouse click for the L3 button and the right mouse click for the R3 button.

* To emulate the Dualshock 2 pressure sensitive buttons press the left or right mouse button and simultaneously roll the mouse wheel.You can try this for games that controls seem to not respond and is known to be required from the games "Ace Combat 5" and "Euro Rally Champion".

* Check/Uncheck "Enable Logging" to enable/disable the pad logging,which as the box says is for developers only.

* Note that there are problems with the PAD plugin and pads (kinda ironic eh? Tongue). It is recommended that you not only not use your pad,but you should unplug it from your PC to be able to configure your keyboard properly.

Cdvdrom
Here you will be able to select which plugin will be responsible for reading your CDs/DVDs or images. By default, PCSX2 includes EFP Iso CDVD v0.6.0, Linuzappz Iso CDVD v0.5.0, EFP Polling CDVD v0.4.0, CDVDnull v0.6.0 and PEOPS CDVD v1.2.0.
Note: Older plugins like CDVDbin or CDVDdraft will NOT work with v0.9 since they are outdated.
Select EFP Iso CDVD v0.6.0 and hit Configure

* Here you can press the Browse button to pre-select an image that the emulator will run. If you do that, then you will be able to run the image selected by both using Run =>Execute and File =>Run CD with the difference that with Run =>Execute you will see the bios at the start then run the game (just like on the ps2) and with File =>Run CD you will skip the bios intro and run the game at once.

* Show configure screen when starting emulation: When checked,the EFP Iso configure screen will pop up whenever you press File =>Run CD or Run =>Execute where you will be able to browse for the desired image you want to run and press ok.If not checked,the plugin will run the image you have pre-selected before pressing File =>Run CD or Run =>Execute.

* Show configure screen when restarting emulation: Same as above,but with restarting.

* Get from Disc: This will pop up a new window where you can create an ISO from your PS2 disc.
Source CD/DVD Device: Input here the cd/dvd drive letter in which your PS2 disc is in that you want to create an iso from.
Iso file: Input the path and filename your iso file will have (or press browse and find it yourself to save you the typing).
New file compression: You can select a compression method you want for your new iso image file. No compression will not compress it, compressions noted as "for speed" are faster but make bigger images and compressions noted as "for size" are slower but create smaller images.
Multiple files(all under 2GB): Check this box if you want your image to be split in multiple files which will be each less than 2GB. Very useful if you don't have an NTFS partition that supports large files or when you want to split an image for storage purposes.
Finally,press make file to create the image you have selected.

* Convert: This option lets you compress or uncompress images.
In the new screen,first select the image you want to get modified.
Then select the kind of compression (or uncompressed to decompress it) you want and finally hit Change file. The Multiple files checkbox does the exact same thing as described above.

Select Linuzappz Iso CDVD v0.5.0 and hit configure.

* This plugin has the extra ability of compressing your images to save you disk space apart from running your images for the emulator.

* Click Select Iso to select the game image you want to run/compress. Once you've selected an image you can either close the config window so you can run it in the same manner as CDVDbin or press "Compress Iso" to compress it.If you selected an already compressed image you can also select "Decompress Iso" to decompress it.

* Under "Compression Method" you can select either ".Z - compress faster", which will compress your image faster but make it larger or ".BZ - compress better", which will compress your image slowly but make it smaller.

* Under Options you can check/uncheck "Enable Block Dump=>'block.dump'". When checked, this option will create a block.dump file in the PCSX2 root folder (where pcsx2.exe is located) from the game you ran. This file is like a small iso,which is mainly used for debugging. It will store the sectors read during the execution of the game you ran, so after you will be able to load the file(using "select iso" of Linuzappz Iso CDVD) and run it without any image/cd/dvd. Note that if the game will try to read any other sectors from the ones not included in the dump file, it will obviously stop responding.

* Press ok to save your changes.

Select EFP Polling CDVD v0.4.0 and hit configure.

* This plugin is pretty simple in it's configuration. Simply type the drive letter your ps2 game is in and you are done. Note: EFP Polling does NOT support ps2 CD games yet, you can only run DVD games with it.

CDVDnull v0.6.0

* This is a Null plugin just like SPU2null,meaning it simply does nothing.You should use this plugin if you want to run demos(via File => Open ELF file) or if you want to run the bios only(via Run =>Execute).It doesn't have a configuration screen for obvious reasons

Select PEOPS CDVD v1.2.0 and press configure.

* I wouldn't put this plugin's configuration here since Pete has all this documented but it seems noone reads documentation anymore.

* Interface: Here you can choose "Win9x/ME - ASPI scsi commands" or "W2K/XP IOCTL scsi commands".As noted the first option is for Windows 9x or Millenium and second option is for Windows 2000 or XP. If the option that is noted for your operating system does not work (eg. emulator freezes after you press run cd or you get an "error opening cdvd plugin") simply use the other option. If neither work,try installing an ASPI layer like the one from adaptec. Yes it's that simple!

* Drive: Simply choose the drive letter your ps2 game is on.the plugin will auto-detect your cd/dvd rom drive letters.

* Caching mode: Here you can choose how the plugin will cache the reads it makes. Each option has a pretty simple and complete description besides it, so you shouldn't have trouble selecting what you want. To ensure maximum compatibility I recommend using the "Read Ahead-fast,reads more sectors at once" option.

* Try to limit speed: When checked the plugin will try to limit your reader's speed to the value you select in the drop down box at the right of this option. As noted it isn't supported by all drives. You should not enable it unless you experience some really strange reading speed issues.

* Don't wait until drive is ready: Does what it says,so if you have problems using this plugin try checking this to see if it helps.

* Check tray state: Do what it says and leave it off...

* Try again on reading error.Retry count(1-10): This option when enabled will force the plugin to try reading the same sectors again if it had trouble reading them and returned an error. Leaving this enabled will not cause you any problems so just to be safe,leave it on with some normal value like 5 (as it is by default).

* Show message box on reading error: When checked a pop up box will show when a reading error occurs.You can enable it to ensure no read errors have been made or if there have been maybe change the try again value above to something higher to get a better chance of reading the sector properly.

* Important note: Testers have detected an incompatibility of this plugin with systems that have the Nvidia Nforce SMBUS drivers. If you are using these,the plugin will immediately freeze your pc after running anything. Your only solution is to either uninstall/not use that driver or use another CDVD plugin
