HELP! Crash in FF9

bangaisser · December 21st, 2003

Hi Guys,

I'm using VGS on FF9 . My game crashed in a Cg movie sequence where Queen Brahne summoned Bahamut against Kuja. I don't think it's a bug, maybe a glitch on my CD. Can Someone help me get pass this scene? The saved memory is attached below. Thanx a million.

try using ePSXe 1.5.2. VGS, IMO, isnt that great...ePSXe can use hardware accelerated plugins and all that good stuff. dont use ePSXe 1.6.0, get 1.5.2 from http://www.epsxe.com/download.php

You tried running from an ISO? It may be a scratch on the CD.

Man, I wasn't planning to bring this up, the CD I have is a copy from my friend, the crash in the Bahamut Cg sequence is probably the result of it. For those curious, I'm using Pentium III 450, 196mb RAM, and a GeForce II MX. I'm quite satisfied with using VGS in Win98 (with Daemon v3.32) and I used a patch from aldostools.com which I've attached below. I do admit that ePSXe has much better performance but the weird thing is that the battle menu won't show up during the battles. I've also attempted to convert my saved VGS memory card into ePSXe memory but the conversion results into a blank memory, the saved data wasn't brought through. The memory conversion tool I used is again from aldostools. I have previously finished the Japanese version FF9 twice without any problems on VGS. I'm a bit tired running in circles, I only want to get pass this nitch and finish this game for the third time and live happily ever after. I couldn't get the original CD from my friend, or any other english version FF9 or else I wouldn't be so grumpy.

So PLEEEEEEEEEZ somebody just get the part over with. (Phew)
