I managed to find a working iso, and the matching hios to run PAL games, but everytime I try to load it and play, I'm stuck on Now Loading forever.

Are you sure the ISO is truly working? I found ISOs that appear to work and then fail later on. Verify your game against the redump database. If the ISO verifies as good, then it's probably an emulator bug, in which case you may try a recent SVN revision of BizHawk, PSX support is added but it's in alpha stage right now. It should be stable enough for testing though.

I just tried the latest SVN and it says NOTHING about PSX support nor will it load any PS1 games. Links?

If you're having trouble with this, perhaps try the SNES or Windows version? Also, the PSX version exists in NTSC version to my knowledge.

Looks like they (zeromus) just barely started with working on PSX support, that is not even close to "it's in alpha stage" or even "PSX support is there". It just means work has started on it. Not that there's anything workable yet.

Since there had been updates to the GUI to reflect PSX I figured games could be loaded, sorry then. BizHawk runs really slow for me so I don't always open it to check (CPU's too old). Also I may have gotten it wrong, but alpha to me is "launches, no guarantees after that"

The SNES version works no problem for me. The reason I'm even bothering with the PS1 version is because I want to record the anime cutscenes and splice them with the SNES gameplay for when I upload MMX3 on my channel.

The Windows version of MMX3 has all the cut scenes stored in AVIs on the CD.

That sounds great, but the PC version costs around $30 on ebay. Trying to find a dump for the PC version online, and the movies are in .str format. Tried downloading a str to avi converter... it's not working. So... would someone mind uploading the avis?
