Black Screen after try to start a New Game, you have to use a Save for this game and then pass the Black Screen, after that everything is fine, Sound, GFX and Framerate are all OK ! BTW, since the other one of FF CC is closed, i did this u.u

Do you happen to have a link to a savegame that is right near the beginning, so that people who wish to play the game from the start don't miss any of the plot?
Thanks.

To just see if it works, you can get saves here:

Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles Save Game Files for GameCube - GameFAQs

Use the 2nd one down since that one is a .gci file. Put it in the /GC/User folder and add it to one of the memory cards. Start the game, load it up in singleplayer. Until the New Game part of FFCC is fixed, there doesn't seem to by any way of getting the game to start from the beginning.

BTW IOMega, what kind of framerate are you getting? When you say 'OK' does that mean fast/slow/in the middle?

thx

Hmmm... i also have the real FFCC on my GC, but my PC definitely isn't playing at the same speed. It always hovers around 20FPS which is slower than my GC version.

I setup my settings to match what was in your first post. Any other settings that might speed the game up?

Oh, and my PC is similar to yours, if not better (no offense to your rig or anything lol)

PC Specs:
Win Vista Home Premium 64-bit
Intel Core i7 920 2.66GHz
ATI Radeon 4850
6GB DDR3 RAM

I get 40FPS :S its not equal to 60 FPS that I think is the GC Speed, but it runs pretty well .

Do not know what may speed it up . Try diferente Revs i dunno .

Yea, I guess updating revs, doing some stuff would work.

Just wondering, do you have the 'Enable Other Audio (Throttle)' under your DSP settings checked?

Alright, one final question:

What rev are you exactly using?

After this I'm just gonna keep playing around with the settings and hope for the best somewhere...

Hey, I got it to work smoothly

I disabled Idle Skipping (I don't even know what that does) and now it plays well at great/constant speed. I guess some settings work for some people and not for others. Thx for the input anyway!

Okay, make sure it is in that folder then:
1. Go into Dolphin then go to Tools -> Memcard Manager
2. In either Memory Card A or B, click Browse and select whichever memcard file you want (should be called MemoryCardA.USA or something)
3. That will "open" it up so you can add or delete save games and stuff. Click "Import GCI"
4. Select the game save you downloaded from GameFAQs or somewhere

That should work.

I have try to import save game long time ago and it run perfect. Remember to import the correct one: if you are using the NTSC version import a savegame for NTSC, if you use PAL version import PAL one. I think that correct your problem.
