    3:43 A very useful option to tick is the "Use analog sticks for d-pad in digital mode" which lets you use the left thumbstick on games that don't support them.

    It also has a portable capability. I've installed DuckStation on a USB key, so I can play it on every windows computer without lose anything

    Duckstation is amazing once you get it set up. There are a lot of features that can improve graphics and performance. Covering emulators on your channel is awesome and it helps me out. Would love to see more retro game emulation content. Great job!

    I’ve been using Duckstation on PC and the Retroarch core on Android. I love how every game looks when enhanced with some geometry corrections.

    Just downloaded this emulator and am very impressed with its emulation and features. The fact that I'm able to upscale and clean up the 2D menu's is simply amazing. Loving just wish someone could fix LAPD FutureCop so I can play this, one of my fav. PSX games.

    You seem extremely knowledgeable on this system and I thank you so much for your guidance in using it! I cant seem to get one of my favorite games, Ape Escape, to work on this however. Anytime I move the character in a diagonal direction he moves extremely slowly, is there a way to fix this and make the analog sticks work better?
    Edit: I've managed to figure it out! Just needed to adjust the analog ratio to 1.40 for the ps5 controller! Now I just need to get the rumble to work on it 😅

      It shouldn't be. You do have to configure the graphics properly to get good performance; IE - Don't use Bilinear upscaling mainly.

    To me setting up the emulator was easy, but how can I make Windows shortcuts for games running on Duckstation? With epsxe it was as easy as just putting a parameter linking to the disc image, and the shortcut would start the gane directly.

    I have this issue in silent Hill 1 were everything works the way I want it, but for some odd reason the levels pop in right before you reach the edge of a polygon. For instance, when harry is in the streets and running, you will get about 4 feet from an edge of a loaded polygon, while clearly being able to see a unloaded empty space just pop in, and this happens on all sides. What could be causing this? any ideas?

    @Bluesit32 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've gotten into hacked or patched games recently, but for the life of me, I can't get any to run on duckstation unless it's a post patch download. I have the means to patch the bin files with ppff files. That seems to work just fine. It says the patch was successful. Either it freezes or it just...scrambles the game up. Text becomes nonsensical, characters get abilities that others are supposed to have (specifically in Final Fantasy Tactics) and it's a big mess. I've also tried running the game by putting the ppff in the same folder as the bin file and changing the names to match. This applied the patch that has the scrambling...only it actually made it worse and the games that freeze say they can't apply the patch. Is there a setting change outside the "apply patch to image files" one I need to make?

    Looks the same as the ps2 emulator which is a good thing in my opinion since it makes it easier to use if you're used to the design. I tried out the epsxe emulator and it was horribly clunky to use with an outdated white and grey interface which hurt my eyes trying to read the descriptions.
