Problems in FF8

[Calin]

I find that ePSXe crashes at a certain point in the game and its been really bugging me, it is at FH at the end of the fight with the Iron Clad (its real anme starts with B and has a lot of digits in it).

I was wonderign if anyone else had this problem or knew a solution to it.

Ok, thought I would clarify. It is when this robot starts going beserk when it is killed, and before it goes back into the water.

I am new to the emulator scene and have no idea whether it is from problems with the plugins or my CD or what, here however is the memory card it is saved on. It is save slot 6.

OK, me again. I got past that bit now by changing the video plug in, however after the battle the screen goes black yet I cna hear the music that normally comes after it....Any suggestions?

Calin, you still needing help? I can try to get past that part for you tonight and will post the memory card here tomorrow. I have the UK PAL version (which I think you have the same PAL version), so I think this should work ok. I will get to the next save point and save it there.

I have heard that using savestates causes weird problems like that.. So try playing the game without using savestates.. Silent Hill plays grey screen mdecs when I use savestates.. Otherwise if I don't they play fine..

Coo' thanx man. Worked like a charm.

well ePSXe 1.40 doesn't have any problems with savestates

[fivefeet8]

that is what I am using..... epsxe 1.4... and sooner or later you may run into some problems with mdecs when using savestates a lot.. When I use savestates with MGS, sometimes the game hangs when load the state and start playing.. It hangs a few minutes after loading the savestate.. Suffice to say, there are still a few bugs in the savestate function..
