    Nice guide Mr S. Maybe worth mentioning that the PCSX2 Wiki has a per game guide of work arounds for any emulator issues, probably a first port of call if you run into problems on a particular game. Also some of these work arounds are relevant to AetherSX2.

      Really tho. Its not hard but for newba like myself its needed.. so you dont screw something up. And doesnt show how to use 7zip or which version to download... guess it was too difficult to make an actually helpful video...

    Some advice here: Set Affinity Control on the Emulation menu to VU - GS - EE. You might get extra performance with this one, especially for some games that will slowdown for a bit.

    i had pcsx2 stable release 1.6.x and it was looking totally different UI than what you were displaying. I went out and grabbed 1.7.x nightly release and it had the UI you were demo-ing and i love the automapping controls (one of the hurdles i've had is P1 & P2 controls not working or overlapping each other etc). but i did the automap for each controller and right out of the gate it worked great on the first title i tried anyway. Thanks for the vid.

    Thank you for making this video. I'm PC illiterate, and just got into PC gaming. My one question is, how do I go about connecting a controller to the PC in order to map the buttons to it? Does it have to be an Xbox 360/One controller, or can be it any usb connectable controller? Playing on mouse and keyboard really hurts my hands, which has prevented me from actually going out and downloading the emulators that I want to download.

    Just a tip, If you want crystal clear smoothed graphics you should go under internal resolution and set it to "4x Native" and turn on FXAA contrast sharpening to "sharpen and resize display resolution" you can also turn dithering to completely off to remove the muddy texture overlay, it looks absolutely amazing on my RTX laptop

    I have an msi computer from 2022, and it was marketed as a "gaming computer", and I want to play "Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater".
    I would guess that a fairly modern gaming computer should be able to handle a game from 2004 fairly well.

    0:58 You don't need 7zip or any other compressing program anymore as off windows 10. tho I still prefer to use Winrar it's not needed since windows 10+ has an unpacking program when you rightclick on your file that you want to unpack.
    Otherwhise great guide. Just wondering if you know how to get the ps2 startupscreen? My emulator always go straight to the game startup. but I actually mis the classic bootup from ps 2 :(

    For the audio side of things, you ABSOLUTELY have to change settings. I own a ps2 and a copy of the game Frequency. You CANNOT play the game without messing with audio settings. Which proves the out of the box experience isn't perfect.... Frequency is a time sensitive game, its a music game. If you don't fix the audio, you absolutely get issues. GRANTED, I am still using ver 1.6.0 of PCSX2.... which is the CURRENT STABLE version. your "nightly build" while newer, isn't fully stable yet. hence why they haven't moved it to stable.
    For the SPU2-X settings, you are gonna use TimeStretch which is recommended. then set 25ms for average latency. however, click advanced. now set all those settings to their LOWEST value. sequence length 20. seekwindow size 10. overlap 5. this will give you the BEST performance/quality. now time sensitive games like frequency or other games where you have to press a key when prompted will have faster response. it makes frequency perfectly playable without any misses, audio issues, or lag. the stock out of the box setting without these tweaks, the game stutters and you WILL miss notes/button presses because of it....
    Going by your video at 5:09, you would set target latency 25ms, and then the bottom 3 settings you would turn to their lowest settings (matching what I gave in the small tidbit above). this will result in the best performance/quality for any game. I always tell people, if you can play frequency with 0 stutters/lag, you can play ANY game with zero stutters/lag. frequency is like THE go-to in order to see if your PC is powerful enough to properly render PS2 games.... so yeah. do this, and thank me later. (note i have recorded a full playthrough of frequency on my page. so yeah)

    Do not download the 7-zip file. For some reason it causes my Wi-Fi to not work every time I try to open it, and it causes my computer to disconnect from the internet. Not sure why but something is fishy about the download. I have no issues downloading PS2 games on my phone but for some reason, it has to be complicated in PC. I fixed the disconnecting issue by deleting the file.
