hi im a complete bumbling idiot how do i install dependencies again
oops nvm turns out i had to do sudo apt update

hi im back and the files arent getting detected by epsxe

@k4zo You need to load the .cue

everytime i try to open the .cue file it crashed the emulator

everytime i try to open the .cue file it crashed the emulator

yeah happened to me too but i switched to duckstation and it works fine

i tried using duckstation, it is far better than xpsce, but it still doesn't work for me. I personally use Manjaro with i3 as the desktop environment.

@ioletsgo
ePSXe doesn't understand absolute paths provided by this script, so i removed them in my fork and now it works

Upon running this the vibribbon folder is made but the command to make the .cue file doesnt seem to work and if i open the terminal in the directory of the file then it just says that it isnt a command
