Memory card issue

$
0
0
Hi,

i'm playing a game (Shining Force Exa), and since the memory card stopped working mid game, i used only save state since then.
Now, it becomes tricky : i want to make a newgame + , and to do so i need a casual save data.

The problem is that, whenever i load my save state via the emulator, the memory card becomes unformated, and the game fails to format ingame.

For example, i start the game, memory card is formated, very good, i can save ingame with a new game, now load state... memory card instantly becomes corrupt.
Even if i untick one or both of the memory card options.

Any idea if there's a way around this ? Why can't the memory card just stay unchanged after state load ?

Looking for suggestions on a Driving Sim

$

So, my gf finally got her license and as promised I have been trying to get over my phobia of being behind the wheel of a car.

In an attempt to get over it without hurting anyone I decided to pick up a driving wheel and decided to pick up a sim. While this is actually helping a bit (I can press the pedals and move without freaking out as much) I want to try other games/sims.

So to all you driving fanatics, what games/sims do you enjoy playing on your PC? My wheel also supports PS3 but I'd rather avoid that as the setup in my home is already pretty tragic as is.

Outlaw Golf 2 (USA) FMV flickering

The FMV's flicker every other frame however if you open the GSDx settings and then close them the flickering stops... no need to change any settings, just open the GSDx settings and then close them.

Nvidia drivers: 361.60
PCSX2 v1.4.0 (The flickering also happened in v1.2.1 but dunno if opening/closing GSDx fixed the flickering, software renderer definitely did)

HELP - can't select fwnull.dll in config

$

First time poster, hello everyone.

I was previously using PCSX2 1.2.1 but I was having an issue with button bindings with my DS4 controller. After trying to troubleshoot I decided to update to PCSX2 1.4. When I went through the config process I didn't have anything to select under USB, FW, or DEV9. I've been able to download the right dlls for USB and DEV9 but I still can't select anything for FW. The dropdown box is blank but I have the correct FWnull.dll in my Plugin folder. I even deleted it and downloaded the install pack again from this site to no avail. I've been trying to research this for a few hours now but I can't even find someone that has had a similar problem. 

Can someone here help?

Memory Card Problem - GTA 3 and Vice City

$
0
0
Hello all,
I've been having a bit of a problem with my memory cards on PCSX2 today and was wondering if anyone could help me.
I have the saves for three games on one of my memory cards (imported with MyMC) - GTA San Andreas, 3 and Vice City. I decided to convert them so I could add them to my main memory card folder, which has about 100 saves in it at this point. The games all recognise the saves when they are on the virtual memory card, and all load and save without any flaws.
However, upon converting the saves to a folder, Vice City and GTA 3 no longer recognise the saves at all - upon starting the game in both of them, a new game begins and the opening cutscene plays (as if there was no save present). Going to the save/load screen, the save is not there at all - not corrupt, just not present, as if the memory card is blank.
San Andreas, however, works fine when converted. I moved the folder into my main memory card folder, and it loads and saves flawlessly. It's just the other two that aren't working, which I find quite strange. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
I was previously on 1.3.1 experimental GIT build when the problem occurred. I've now updated to the latest stable build (1.4.0) but I'm still having the same problem.
Any help would be very much appreciated!  Smile

Retesting PS2 Emulation / New Rig / Other random ranting

$

Hello to everyone i the PCSX2 community, i have a bit of a loooong story to tell.

So after my living room PC that my parents used bit the bucket so bad that if i disabled the Onboard LAN it would stop detecting my HDD's (it was an Abit P35 motherboard with a E6750 C2D at 2.66 Ghz on it and 2 GB of china RAM), i finally decided that it is time to get a new Motherboard+CPU+RAM and give my older one to them (that being an Asus P5E with Rampage Formula bios with an E8400 C2D at 4.23 Ghz on it and 4 GB of Corsair Dominator RAM).

After searching for people to buy my components from i found someone selling a complete kit (Mobo+CPU+RAM) for 420 $ (this is btw extremely cheap for my area for a combo like this).
It was an ASUS Maximus Ranger VII motherboard + an Intel i5 4690K + 8 GB of Kingston Predator RAM.

I contacted the seller and then he told me that it was this cheap because the motherboard has 'problems', after thinking a bit about it i decided to buy it anyway thinking that i can try to fix it.
In 2 days it arrived via fast mail and i got it out of the package and noticed that the motherboard looked basically brand new XD, i quickly set everything up for tests and i was getting very weird random system hangs and bluescreens so i decided to go into the motherboard bios to check some settings for stability and then i found out that even the UEFI bios freezes from time to time and i was like WTF?!?.
Then an idea hit me and i checked the BIOS date and it was the first release bios aka no one ever updated the bios ever.

Going to the ASUS site i found on one of the later bios changelogs: - Support Devil's Canyon CPU's and enhanced stability.
At that moment on my face there was a very big stupid smile.
Downloaded BIOS -> Updated BIOS -> all the problems went away instantly.

After that i also found out that the waterblock from my C2D fit on the new processor with no problem and I began OC-ing it in full force.
After a couple of weeks of tests, crashes, instability i managed to nail some good settings and stabilized the system at 4.3 Ghz with the memory at DDR3-1600, which i am very happy with and then i started testing some games on PCSX2.

I quickly found out that almost all my PS2 games work better on Software mode rather than Hardware and i couldn't find 1 game that lagged on SW mode at all (out of those in my collection ofc and i don't have all games XD).
With that said and the fact that my MSI Radeon 6870 is getting very old and is already starting to give me random driver crashes (which might be just the driver tho as AMD drivers SUCK) i am now saving up to get a GTX 970 or so in order to bring PC up to today's gaming standards.
Attached a pic of the finished product (i didn't do it alone btw i was helped by a friend).

Hope i didn't bore you guys out with too many details and if i did i apologize and thank you for reading my story Smile .
I would also like to know what you guys think be it good or bad (maybe i should have gotten something else, maybe i am an idiot and could have done something better, who knows).

Fatal Frame 3 white screen OpenGL

Hello,

I'm not making a bug report about this since I don't yet know if it is due to settings. Either way, I was playing Project Zero 3 (PAL) just fine on OpenGL. Then when I started it up the other day, whenever 3D scenes show up the screen just turns white and the framerate plummets. I tried fiddling with accuracy etc, but nothing seems to work.

It's so strange...

Primal NTSC SCUS 971.42

So now that PCSX2 is at version 1.40 I thought Primal might work better however it still will not work even slightly. A while back on version 0.96 I had some help but no one could get Primal to work but back then I had a dual core laptop, now I have a high end gaming desktop. 

I sought out the Wiki pages for settings and technical help but aside from the game being fairly obscure, it looks like not many can get this to work but none of them had my system specs either. Since it's my favorite game I want to play it on my new PC and so far it's absolutely atrocious with infinite loading loops, 5-20 FPS at best, and total freezes once I enter the time chamber within the first 5 minutes of the game (or whatever that big glowing room is called after the first cutscene with her on the hospital bed). Every time I freeze in place as soon as I enter the chamber. My system should slaughter this game. A guy with an i5 2500 (4 core at 3.2GHz) and AMD 6950 averaged 20 FPS and my PC would swallow his whole for power, so I'm strongly leaning toward "me" being the issue to making this work. Any help is insanely appreciated!!!!

(((As an FYI, the AMD Crimson Suite 16.1 Hotfix and all other drivers including the latest non-Crimson suite (AMD CCC 15.7) have had no bearing on FPS or otherwise, so I've ruled out a GPU driver issue.)))

I've tried a lot but I don't know if I've hit any good combinations and I don't know what any of this really means at all. I've tried OpenGL, DX9-11 Hardware and Software with max or lowest graphical settings but I still only get around 5-20FPS and still freeze at the time chamber or whatever it is. Either way, game freezes in the same exact spot for the last 3 years give or take. Any ideas guys? I'd really appreciate getting this running around 30 FPS steady on that at least.

Help with running Yakuza

I've been trying a few tutorials to get this game to run at a reasonable pace for a while today but ended with hardly any luck. I'm sure it's because of the specs I have 

Processor: AMD A4-4300 APU Radeon  2.50Ghz
RAM: 4.00 GB 
System: Windows 10 64 bit

I'm not really that great with emulation the only game I was only able to run stably was Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix but that was years ago. I just got back into this cause I have no other means of playing the first two yakuza games but I'm pretty close to giving up Any help?

Lets start by saying yes I tried both switching to sse4 and flicking to direct3d9 before selecting a car then switching back to 11 and it still seems to happen.
Not exactly sure what to do about it as it's really distracting and the game lacks a pc release (and no working xbox emulator exists) so yeah.
Any advice/things I may have overlooked?

Codebreaker and Gran Turismo 4 issues

$

Hi all, I'm trying to use a Codebreaker .iso to get cheats to work on Gran Turismo 4. According to several tutorials on YouTube, it should be straightforward and simple to do so, simply picking the cheats you want, then changing the CDVD to a different .iso, and hitting X to advance to the game. Every single video I watch, it works perfectly fine, but whenever I do exactly as they describe, it freezes trying to load the GT4 .iso. The last few messages I get in console before the entire program stops responding are:
Code:
isoFile: searching for layer1...
isoFile: loaded second layer from settings cache, sector=0x001418c0
 * CDVD Disk Open: DVD, Double layer:
 * * Track 1: Data (Mode 1) (2594960 sectors)
Plugins opened successfully.
(SYSTEM.CNF) Detected PS2 Disc = cdrom0:\SCUS_973.28;1
(SYSTEM.CNF) Software version = 1.01
(SYSTEM.CNF) Disc region type = NTSC

(GameDB) Changing VU0/VU1 clamp mode [mode=2]
I'm not sure if it's not meant to work this way, if I'm just making a simple mistake somewhere, or what exactly is happening. I have tried restoring settings to "factory settings", and even reinstalling, to no avail.
Any clue how to get around this problem?
I've been trying to use a PNACH instead, and that's not working, either. Mind you all, I'm very new to this all.
Thanks in advance!

Here is how to play God of war (1) on hardware mode without green environment

$

Ok,I know it sounds a little stupid, but I never found a workaround for this problem on this forum and managed to play the game in hardware mode on gsdx 10 (sse3), so I will share it, in case someone wants to play again this masterpiece.
Just put a tick on "Enable HW hacks" in Gsdx plugin settings, then click on "configure" button on the right and put a "2" for the value of skipdraw.
You are good to go and almost every setting will work along,but if I can suggest,put a tick also on "alpha stencil",it makes the innatural little fog that appears with skipdraw a lot less noticeable, and the scenario quite nicer.

Devil summoner 2 pnach trouble

Okay i'm using pcsx2 version 1.5.0-dev-134-g09817ba.  I got the pnach file from here http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Post-your...#pid269683

I edited the file and deleted the cheats i didn't want to use(namely i left in infinite items).  I made sure enable cheats is checked in the menu.  The emulator does say the cheats are loaded upon booting up, but items do not wind up being infinite you still run out like normal.

I would provide the log file and ediited pnach file, but when i click on browse to try to add files nothing happens.

EDIT
The content of the edited pnach file looks like what is seen below. I have skimmed over the guide for pnach files on the forum but really am not sure what i'm doing wrong, any help would be appreciated.
