This is the Pcsx2 official beta and beta plugins thread.

In this thread, betas of the emulator and of the plugins will be posted.

These files are betas, so there are no guarantees of them running games. We offer NO official support on any of this.
You can however use them to see the latest progress and the new bugs .. errr... features introduced You are all encouraged to try the latest beta available from this thread before posting a bug report. If it works in the latest beta, it's most likely fixed, and so no need to post a bug report.

Regarding the frequency of these betas, they will be put out when there's some reasonable amount of changes.
Most commits are not actually worth it, they add up in the long run but give no immediate benefits.

Installation instructions for the pcsx2 beta:
- Get the new installer, everything is included there
- install, then update directx as usual
- Play

Notes for the pcsx2 Linux beta:
Dependencies include gtk2, opengl, libbz2, libjpeg, glew-dev, libxxf86vm-dev, x11proto-xf86vidmodeautomake and autoconf (version >= 1.9) Nvidia Cg-Toolkit, libasound-dev, & joystick

I'm compiling with Glew 1.5.1, and I've seen issues before if you use a different Glew version then the one I compiled against. I also downgraded my copy of libjpeg to version 6 before compiling, because most distributions are not using 7.

I've included a binary of ZZogl at r166, as well as OnePad, GSnull, and PadNull. The latter three are all considered alpha quality.
