Hi all.

I am new to emulation, so hope there is someone that can help me setup PCSX2.

I am running v1.7.4249

PC
Windows 10 Pro
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX
32 GB Ram

The game I want to try is Xenosaga 1.

Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.

I have set it up, and it runs good.

Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht, runs like it does as on a PS2.

I have looked up a page with settings for the game, but I don't understand how it works.

Sorry, but this is all new to me.

if it runs good, no need to look for any extra setting ?

I am looking for 4K and 60 Hz settings. I am running a 4K monitor.

increase internal resolution
you can look for a 60 fps patch, but don't be too keen on it.
It doesn't always work, and xenosaga can be a bit hard to emulate @high resolutions

Ok. I got it to run in 4K with OpenGL, but can't get the 60Hz patch to run.

Please post the contents of the emulog.txt file after the problem occurs. The file can be found in "My Documents\PCSX2\logs" for the installer version or in "PCSX2\logs" for the portable/binary version.

Please make sure to enclose your emulog in code tags like so (remove the empty space on the closing code tag!):

Okay, I know what I did wrong. I forgot to rename the file to the games CRC number.

But after trying the patch, it runs the FMV's at 60Hz. Game craches. Ingame is basically double speed and doesn't feel any different, so I don't recommend it.
