hey guys,

I am trying this for the first time, to run the game dragon quest VIII.


I followed all the steps in the tutorial, installed everything even the CG toolkit and downloaded the ISO.

Once i try to run the cdvd the program just closes. i have no idea why, it doesnt  even give me any error messages to help me figure out what went wrong.

Can you help me?

OSX Yosemite 10.10.3

Thanks for posting this tutorial! I tried it, and got to the part where I can hear the game sounds as though I\'m running a normal PS2, but I have no graphics displayed. I tried installing the Nvidia cg package, but I got some error about my direct x not being there, even though I installed it using Winetricks. I'm guessing it may have something to do with my GS plugin, because the ones I have did not work
Any ideas to solve this would really be helpful : Thanks a lot!

I have a question for people who have the current version of PCSX2 (1.2.1) - how do you update the PCSX2-CE package with said current version? I've been meaning to go spelunking through past pages in this thread, but I haven't had much luck...

Have you tried just replacing files one by one?
Probably you could start by comparing pcsx2 v1.0 and the one in the bundle. If there are differences you need to apply them to the version as well otherwise it is probably just replacing all v1.0 files by v1.2.1 files. Possibly some wineskin config files need to be changed in addition but as pcsx2 v1.0 is similar to pcsx2 v1.2.1 in requirements its probably not that complicated.

You'll need to add VC++ 2013 too...

Step 1: download the latest builds from http://buildbot.orphis.net/pcsx2/index.php


Step 2: Right-click on the PCSX2-CE and select Show Package Contents. Go to drive_c and Program files to see the old PCSX2 folder. 

Step 3: IMPORTANT: Copy over the BIOS, inis and memcards folders to your new PCSX2 download. (hold down the Alt key when dragging, otherwise OSX sometimes just makes an alias)

Step 4: Copy the new PCSX2 folder into Program Files (delete the old one while you are at it)

Step 5: Open up the Wineskin app contained in the package (you should have seen it earlier when you did step 2)

Step 6: Select Advanced. 

Step 7: Reassign which .exe file is run by clicking the Browse button at the top. Choose the new PCSX2.exe

Step 8 (optional): update the wrapper version and engine used if there are new versions available (you can download new engines with the Wineskin Winery app from here: http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-in...=Downloads ) 

Then you are done. The new version should run next time you open the app.
