✨ SYPNOSIS ✨

pcsxr [options] [file]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

PCSXR is a plugin-based PlayStation emulator, and the way it can play most PSX games?? Iconic. It handles the CPU, the BIOS, and the basic system emulation all by itself, and then it leans on plugins to do the sound, the input, and the graphics emulation. So like, the emulator does the brain stuff and the plugins do the ✨aesthetic✨. Teamwork, fr fr. 💅

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -runcd — runs the CD-ROM straight from the drive. Physical media girlies rise 🫶
• -cdfile FILE — runs a CD image file instead. Digital era, no cap.
• -nogui — don't load the GUI. Raw, unfiltered, no interface energy.
• -cfg FILE — points at a different config file, so you can have your own lil setup 🎀
• -psxout — enable PSX output. Turn it on and let it yap.
• -slowboot — enable the BIOS Logo, so you get that nostalgic boot moment instead of skipping past it 🦋
• -load STATENUM — loads savestate STATENUM. Pick your number, get your moment back.
• -help (-h) — display the help message. Always read the help bestie, it's free knowledge 💜

And that's the whole page, bestie!! 🌈 This little doc is dated October 01, 2005, and it's the PCSXR(1) page from the general commands manual — section 1, as in "one of one" 💅. Love you, go emulate something iconic 💖✨🎀
