The Bug Reporter Utility - Do not post bug reports

[cottonvibes]

From what you just said Refraction, i noticed that my ini has alot of garbage data.

[Cpu Options]
Cpu=0
Vurec=0
Regcache=0
SafeCnts=0
InterlaceHack=0
SPU2Hack=0
Multithreading=0
GSMulti=0
Options=1267

i have MTGS mode on, and Dual Core mode On as well.
but they're listed as Off in my ini above..

the only thing that seems to be correct is the Options value.

so is everything junk data except the Options?
and those values should just be ignored, and the real values should be determined by what value Options has..
i'm guessing thats the case...

EDIT:
gamersat678,
i believe those options are always on. thats probably whats ment by "forced on"

Yeah it appears to me that is the case. But the options value is being a pain in the arse right now.


The reason why I asked

What option turns those two options on?

and are they always on? is becuase if I turned off all the options I get a value of 0(both in decimal and hex). It's as if those options aren't included in the decimal.

yeah i just noticed that those two values you were talking about are conflicting in binary.

like most values are easy, such as the first three that don't conflict when you add them up...
001, 010, 100

but 0x100 is 1100100

and when you add that up, it conflicts with "Frame Limit On" which is 100


i'm hoping refraction messed up when he listed the value of 0x100 or else its going to be a big pain :/

Do you happen to know what the heck PadHack=0 is? More useless data (it seems like it to me)?

i'm not sure, but it think its useless data
i have..
[Misc]
Patch=1
PadHack=0
varLog=0
Hacks=3

the only thing i think is important there is Hacks, which you already did.
i'm a bit curious what "patch" means, since i have it set to 1

I hope this is a good suggestion but what do you think about getting the Bug Reporter to post some of the error dump info that (well for WinXP) drrwin.exe brings up when a game crashes? (I don't know what the equivalent app is for Vista though ), and the last dozen lines from the pcsx2 output screen when the game crashes as well?

That way errors could be isolated more easily and this could help streamline the pcsx2 team's debugging process, besides give more info for troubleshooting newbies problems on these forums.

Do you happen to know where the dump file for drrwin.exe is?

[PCXL-Fan]

its located in folder C:\Documents and Settings\[*user account name*]\Local Settings\Temp

the file name for me was 5106_appcompat.txt, but I'm guessing for other people it'll be any number or #_appcompat.txt ....eg 3017_appcompat.txt

What I noticed right off the bat thats important about dwwin, is it almost always tells which dll or exe triggers the crash when looking whats under "ModName:".

Awesome app by the way. Big thanks for your contribution to the scene.

[cottonvibes]

for that to work though, the user would have to crash PCSX2 before running bug reporter.
or else the info it gets might have something to do with some other program.
it might be more trouble than its worth.. but who knows..
