PPF patching
Previous  Top  Next


Starting with ePSXe v1.5.0, ePSXe comes with an option to apply PPF patches to your game on the fly, as already seen in Pete's great CD plugin. NGEmu made a collection of important PPF files for you to download, but searching the web you should find plenty more. Using them is a bit more difficult, but easy once you got the system, and understandable for everyone who follows the step-by-step instructions below :

1.Download (and possibly unzip) the PFF patch EXACTLY for the game you'd like to patch. That means that you won't be able to use a PPF patch for FF9 german with your italian version ! Also keep in mind that some games (like Gran Turismo) have two versions.  
2.Copy the file into the /patches sub-directory in your ePSXe directory  
3.Look on the CD you want to use ... you'll find a file whose name is like SLES*,SCES* or SLUS*. Copy that name and rename the PPF file from your /patches directory to exactly the same name (also in uppercase !).  
4.You're done, the next time you run that game ePSXe will add the patch on the fly !  
 
Please do not ask any of the team members to mail you a certain PPF file, these requests simply will be ignored. Asking on the forum might get us to upload one, but don't count on it.
