yet another FF8 problem......

[Govy]

Initially this was posted in a separate section but i was asked to make a new topic as there would be more chance of getting help so here it is.

The problem i am having happens - on two computers one with ATI and one with Nvidia (sorry for spelling) graphics cards - at the Lunatic Pandora movie sequence, on both computers i have tried, i freeze at that movie sequence, and i'm clueless about how to fix it.

AMD Turion 64 dual core 1.9ghz
2gb ram
ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 series - 830mb approx vram

(not got Nvidia computer specs on hand but i will update when i get them)

Forgot to mention, i tried creating an ISO with no luck, if i did have luck im presuming i wouldn't of created this post :D

have you tried to get past this part on another emulator?

[Govy]

the only other one i tried was PSX emulator, it got further into the sequence although didn't complete it. Im going to borrow a friend's disc and see if i can make an iso of that, as it probably is my disc where the fault lies, i'm just unable to see what the fault is.

[jonc2006]

what format did you make your image in? and you are using a PAL version of the game, right? have you patched it with a .ppf patch yet? most PAL region games need that done before they work correctly (although there are some that dont).

[Govy]

it auto patches well epsxe does anyway. (yes using PAL version) the image was .iso instead of .img or any of the others as i used poweriso to make the image.

[jonc2006]

i would make a new image in a different format because .iso isnt what you want to use for psx games. read this (http://forums.ngemu.com/misc-psx-discussion/34515-how-make-perfect-backup-psx-games.html) thread on how to do it. and btw are you using save states or memory card saves?

[Govy]

memory saves, however i made an iso using a different disk 3 and it seemed to have worked thank you for the help
