Final.Fantasy.8.VIII.PSX.PAL

This is Final Fantasy 8 (VIII) for PSX, enjoy it and here is a guide on how to play it on your computer: if u have anyproblem with setting up your video configuration here is a GREAT site that tells u what config u should have on a specific game: http://www.lordkane.co.uk/ 1. To unzip the 7z file download the 7-Zip here http://www.7-zip.org/ 2. Now you can either burn it or mount it. I will describe how u can mount it. If you want to burn it u need to do it on your own. 3. When it is unziped u need to get Daeomon Tools so u can mount the image, get it here http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/portal/download.php 4. When the image is mounted u need to play it in a PSX emulator, i suggest ePSXe, thats the best one, get it here http://www.epsxe.com/download.php 5. To use the PSX emulator u need to get a BIOS file, search the internet or other p2p networks to find it, it is called SCPH1001.BIN and is about 0,5 MB big 6. In order to play this game u need to install some plugins, download and install/extract these plugins in the plugins folder: 6.1 Pete's Video plugin, for best video, get it here http://www.ngemu.com/download.php?action=plugin&id=7 6.2 Pete's Sound plugin, for best sound, get it here http://www.ngemu.com/download.php?action=plugin&id=23 6.3 Pete's CD plugin, get it here http://www.ngemu.com/download.php?action=plugin&id=35 6.4 Input plugin, get it here http://www.ngemu.com/download.php?action=plugin&id=52 7. After installing the plugins start up ePSXe go through the install wizard step by step 7.1 Video, choose Pete's video plugin for your graphic card, then press Config and then press the "Nice" button at the button to get good settings that works good with these FF games 7.2 if u dont want to play in full screen u can change that at the top by choosing window mode 7.3 Choose Pete's Sound plugin and press next, dont need to change any config. 7.4 Choose Pete's CD plugin (P.E.Op.S. CDR Driver 1.4) and press config, Select your interface at the top, if u have W2K or XP choose the raw reading one. then select what drive the game is mounted in and press ok 7.5 finally change the controllers or keep them as they are, u decide.. 8. To load the mounted image just press File and then Run CDROM. if u want to load a real ps cd that u have in your drive u need to change the drive in Pete's CD plugin (P.E.Op.S. CDR Driver 1.4) to the specific drive. 9. thats all, hope it works, if u bump in to any problems, just post it here and ill try to help.

Monkey_D_Luffy (2005-07-23)

It works, just like all of the other final fantasies patrikzidane has put up. Have not played through it yet, but will post when I have.

Zobie (2005-07-30)

does this actually work? im pretty excited about getting this game but this is a 5 day download for me and i dunno if its worth the wait... can somebody post their expierience with ePSXe?

Zobie (2005-07-30)

stickyfingaz (2005-08-01)

Works just fine!

Fum3tsu (2005-08-05)

For those of you who claim the cd files are bad...did you use the 7Zip program he asked to you open the files with? Also to the one claiming only the first cd works... you probably screwed up your emulator mister :P

darth galactius 00258 (2005-08-09)

What is MDF files? The fourth CD has two MDF files and it doesn't work. The other CD:s don't have MDF files and they work perfectly. Please help me!

sangraal777 (2006-03-13)

C'mon people- if you're not gonna share your files, then just don't leech! That's how we keep the network running, don't take it and run with it! If you have it, do what the people did that allowed you to get it- SEED!

BlazeFace (2006-05-20)

Yo people please help me out! I did everything with that ePSXe stuff! the video, sound, cd-rom & bios configuration! I downloaded the Daemon Tools

BlazeFace (2006-05-20)

dnc (2006-07-12)

Tassidar (2006-07-13)

I have Daemon tools and whatever, and played the game for awhile... it now asked me for disk 2, so i mount disk 2, the game says it's the wrong disk. maybe error when uploading? or is there a different way to do this

Tassidar (2006-07-13)

problem solved... while extracting Disk 2 got bugged... thanks for the game, i'll seed every now and then

Joshluvsrach (2006-09-11)

I can't figure out how to run disk 4, it's different than the other disks. How do I use the MDF and MDS files in disk 4? Everything else works fine.

riswall (2006-10-07)

NinjaRyu (2007-01-15)

Would it kill you guys to seed????

pbransford (2007-01-19)

"is there anyone who can tell me what program or how i use nero to burn this game so i can play it on my psx?it shows blank when i use daemon but it works in epsxe:S....please help me"
You can't, without a 'modchip' for your PSX - Sony deliberately disabled the ability to play from CDR/CDRWs
Besides, the disks are PAL - make sure you have a PAL PSX (PAL is Europe/Asia) - if you got your PSX in the USA it is NTSC

chylan (2007-02-13)

perre85 (2007-02-21)

eotall (2007-03-09)

How to make disc 4 work:
1.Download Deamontools (just search for 'Deamontools' at some searchengine)
2.Mount the .mds file inte the disc 4 folder

christos22 (2007-04-29)

i downloaded the game but cd 1 isnt an iso file
like cd 2,3 and neither mdf like the 4th???
help

Mirus88 (2007-07-07)

Sweet description on how to instal.
Only thing I had problems with was that stupid bios..
Wrote it into the adressbar, but geez.. :\
The search engine absoloutely had to put in a "WWW". so the file didn't open.
I then figured out that if I just opened the file manually and used internet explorer as the main program for it, it would work. So I did and now it's all fine.
Where I the only one having this "Issue" ? :)
Gr8t game..
BUMP :)

pbransford (2007-08-02)

Can someone please explain why the torrent poster felt the need to archive the files first? You realize you can make a torrent of a whole directory, and the torrent clients can pick and choose what to download, and prioritize specific files?
I could be done with disk 1 completely and be playing now, while waiting for the others to finish, but I can't do that because it's one massive 7-zip archive.
PirateBay should have some kind of torrent-etiquette page or something, this kind of thing gets EXTREMELY annoying.

bob12357 (2007-09-03)

i downloaded this game but when i get to the comunication tower on the first disc in the exam after i leave the tower and run from that machine the screen just goes black and stays like that. Did i do something wrong?

felixon1221 (2007-09-14)

Im sorry im new here and I really want to play this game (played it b4 but didnt kill omega...) but im completly clueless as to what it is I need to do. For starters, where is the actual link to start downloading the 4 discs??? the only download I see here is for a 50KB torrent...btw what IS a torrent?? please help me!

MetalManiacMat (2007-09-25)

Hmmm... The only reason I downloaded this was to actually play it on my playstation. If you submit any other games it would be real easier if you made them just nice and simple iso's. I wasted like 4 discs trying to burn it right, but in the end i got it. anyway thnx for uploading thsi :)

thebluetree (2007-11-11)

I'm having trouble with this whole thinger...
So i downloaded this 1.67 GB file... and i dont know what to do with it... I ran it through 7-zip... And i got a smaller file... but now what...
the file i downloaded is Final.Fantasy.8.VIII.PSX.PAL
this is the right file correct?
It doesnt open... It just opens up bitcomet for download...

Mizura (2007-11-21)

"I have a crapy problem. :(
In disk 2, After the rockets miss balamb garden and it starts to fly. Cidd askes you to chek if everyone is alright... After that you need to go to the 2nd floor where quistis class was. at this floor you need to go outside on a sort of balkony.

TY"
I have the exact same problem, furthermore, I've tried extracting disc 2 multiple times, even using 7zip. Each time I get stuck, I think the rar's corrupted.

rauri87 (2008-02-12)

this isnt the PAL version its NTSC.i have a PAL ps1 that has been chipped and the colours completely screwed.I also have saves from my ff8 that some c**t thiefed but according to this torrent i dont have any save files,you needs to change the name of this torrent.

Allama (2008-02-12)

So, It all works well. The only problem is the actual game stutters, at least when its In Movie mode. It shouldnt on my computer, its brand new. Anyway to fix this?

raginghobo32907 (2008-02-12)

I'm having the same problem as Angel Wolf... I start up the CD and I get a black screen...
Followed the instructions so obviously something's wrong with those.

raginghobo32907 (2008-02-12)

I take it back! I had an emulator taken from another site, although it WAS ePSXe.
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
Stupid me. Will seed when possible!

shanor2k8 (2008-02-16)

Hey i downloaded everything and did everything you said but it doesnt work, when i run the first cd the screen is just black, maybe you could send me a dummy version cos im not too great at all the jargon, please help i spent a long time downloading this!

f360mod02 (2008-03-02)

I have the same shitty problem after the comm tower in the seed test. I've tried extracting through 7Zip and WinZip. It isn't actually isolated at the tower. It is running in general. Now, sure I can go level up and beat the shit out of the robot the first time around, but I'm sure somebody can tell me wtf is up?

taddydow (2008-03-02)

WORKS GREAT!!! I'm in the military and I can't have all my old systems with me and to be able to play my favorite games off of my computer with a usb controller is great. Thanks a ton. And in case none of ya'll can tell, this torrent works great. Follow the directions and it'll work.

chrshr (2008-03-16)

I'm downloading and cant wait to play. The problem I have though is when I go to

Mike.E.Misery (2008-05-18)

Okay, nevermind. I figured it out but now when I run the game, nothing but a black friggin screen. Did I do something wrong? I followed the instructions exactly.

Mike.E.Misery (2008-05-18)

Oh, and after the black screen it says that ePSXe encountered a problem and needs to close.

Pisikene (2008-06-11)

What video configuration should i use for Vista? I have tried most of them already but the graphics still look like crap.

brownie08 (2008-06-30)

brilliant torrent works perfectly! cheers

GiveGodAWedgie (2008-08-02)

for everyone with the black screen problem dont mount...click run iso and it works just fine just give it about 10 seconds.

Grahnman (2008-08-11)

This is NTSC! Same as the FFIX torrent which states that it's a PAL-release but it isn't. You just mount one of the images in Daemon Tools and then you see the SLUS-file. Mislabeled bullshit upload.

310010 (2008-08-14)

to Grahnman
Hey, itd really NTSC, weel, i rerally hate PAL game cuz are really slow to load, in ePSXe or in console and have some graphics glitches in emulator, im download this game right now and i want to know, is really a NTSC game?

Troxa123 (2009-01-30)

I've played through the first cd but when I try extracting the second one and the third one winrar doesn't reqognize it as an archive, any ideas as to what could be done to resolve this?

patrikzidane (2009-02-01)

For new plugins go to this site:
http://www.pbernert.com/index.htm
ePSXe 1.7.0 has also been released so you might give that a go

jcram55 (2009-02-12)

i dont know what to do with disc 4.....i downloaded daemon tools lite and i dont know what to do next! help me!

jcram55 (2009-02-12)

NVM! I GOT IT!!
-download daemon tools (daemon tools lite)
-mount the mds file...follow instructions how to mount on
-once you mount it...in my case disc "e" pops up but its empty........this is where i freaked out!
-but........go back to espxe, click the change disc or open .iso if your starting up and open the file for disc 4 and click the .mds file and THERE YOU GO!!

Nilbog1 (2009-03-18)

For those of you getting Black Screen on startup and other places in the game.
Try runnning another format in the ePSXe emulator.
Instead of CDROM you can try to run ISO.
Or if you are using ISO try to run it on the CDROM format instead. Fixed all my problems with the blackscreen.

T-move (2009-03-20)

Tried this download since my original Final Fantasy VIII PAL cd 2 for psone doesnt work. this file is NTSC and makes the savegames not work. So since i just started this game again, i'm going nuts not being able to play it.

patrikzidane (2009-03-21)

Tried google it? There are some suggestions on what you could do here:

JPeterson (2009-05-05)

Yes, it's nott good to name it PAL when it's NTSC. If the first disc has the SLUS_008.92 ID it's NTSC, the PAL version should have a SLES_020.8? file on the first disc according to this site

CampyCamper (2009-07-15)

Yes this torrent is NTSC, not PAL

m0ffx (2009-07-22)

THIS TORRENT IS NTSC NOT PAL :-@
Wasted my time and bandwidth.

ProffessorDumbledor (2009-07-31)

ive recently downloaded the torrent ive got it running fine, but when i get into a battle theres no bit at the bottom of the screen were you usually choose how to attack or draw ect. if someone can explain if ive done something wrong it would be great.

Shadowkorpse (2009-09-25)

just so everyone knows, This is not a PAL version this is american incase anybody uses the PEC emulator

TheOccultKidEnkidu (2009-12-28)

@ProffessorDumbledor
I had the same problem. I'm running ePSXe on Daemon tools. I don't know what plug-ins you've got installed, but I fixed mine but changing the video config from "Fast" to "Nice". Of course, it still looks kind of crappy, but at least it shows the battle menu.

chiechay (2010-03-26)

cristiancaga (2010-12-17)

Wait, Do I really need to install Daemon Tools? Really? Cause for the previous games I played I just clicked on the .iso file in the CD browser of ePSXe.

docdart (2010-12-20)

@ FF_Lover. Try changing ur sound plugins. The game is trying to play a cutscene and i had to change sounds to get past it.

Ravaner (2011-01-17)

This is ntsc region coded not pal, still works for epsxe but not your european consoles guys

Orizzle (2011-02-20)

Anyone know if this will work on a PSX emulator for Droid?

imadejoolaff (2011-03-08)

Got a CnD letter from my ISP after seeding this. Best try a different torrent.

dethassault (2011-03-12)

Game freezes in disk2 on the balcony scene. Seeing as i'm not the only one with a problem, I don't recommend downloading this. Not worth it.

nokii4 (2011-07-13)

Downloading at great speed less than 40 minutes :). I will comment once i play through the game

akira00 (2011-08-12)

for the freeze at the seed ball just download a different copy of disc 2 its easy and fast

iiProcs (2012-09-03)

Just so everyone knows this is an NTSC copy of the game, NOT PAL. Runs at 60fps in ePSXe and the SYSTEM.CNF file says SLUS not SLES.
