Well Bully FPS is bogus even if speedhacks is disabled... it says I'm getting 60+ FPS (speedhacks disabled) outside, yet it feels like 30 FPS. Indoors the speed seems fine tho.

if it is, then i'll upload it somewhere and post it for you guys so you can get Sonic Heros to work.

okay i did some testing,

and i don't think its my memory card thats enabling the game to play, since i switched to very old memory cards and it still worked.
even on 9.4!!


i have no idea how i got Sonic Hereos working, even when i switch to old graphic and sound plugins, and switch to PCSX2 9.4, it still works! :/

i remember i tried it a month ago and it didn't used to work. so i'm totally stumped as to why its working for me...

Just wanted to inform you guys that a fixed zerospu2.dll has been uploaded to pcsx2.net.
I advise every savestate user to get that version, as the old one had a serious bug that
screwed up the cycle calculation after loading a savestate.

[buugtdbgt]

upload a save state

Yeah, well, thats when the bug was getting prepared. It just triggered after loading that faulty save

[tucows]

want to report that persona 3 fes ntcs has some random crashes in the last months but they actually are not present in the same place, for example when you are talking to a person if you have been playing a long time before talking with a person there are possibilities that the game will crash but if you save or make a save state and restar the game and talk to the person or watch the scene that has crashed the emulator it run normal and you can finish the game without problems.

[Federelli]

Yeah,Tyvm for the 366 zerospu2 fix, i was gonna make a post about it, but seeing as my last post about a zerospu2 bug was closed, i felt i better didn't. Good to know someone noticed it as well . Sound now hangs again sometimes tho.

Tekken 5 doesnt show anything past the loading minigame, so its hardly random.

Also Rama has played Persona 3 for a good few hours with it n said its great.

Wrong. SVN 364: I play team battle 8vs8, and vs mode battles. Sometimes I played non-stop for 30 minutes until I preferred moving to Tekken 4 due to the higher fps rate. I have also been able to launch and play the devil within minigame, but the fps rate was so low I quit the game. And I also use only one speedhack: EE/IOP sync.

Also, to get past the loading minigame, make sure you run the game via run-execute, and are using native resolution.

Ok, Mortal Kombat Armageddon has a huge speedup in Videos in the beta. Overall the game runs better, with 70 FPS in Menu and 30 Ingame with this system:
Amd x2 6000+
8800 GTS 512 MB
and 2GB RAM

[deamonhunter]

- Sonic heroes didnt get ingame for me to (364) stuck on mem card checking or so (Japanese )
- tekken 4 now have the character floating during reply or even during some while standing moves (the foot just hangs in the lateral plane for a second then back to normal ) not effecting gameplay though but I thought it was worth reporting
- persona 3 now @ 60 FPS all the time even during cutscenes

Uncheck "Disable Forced ABS" hack. That fixes it.


As for current developments with Tekken 5: after updating to the latest plugins and SVN's, here is the data: (1MB file with 4 screenshots with explanations)

Maybe during this month you also downloaded a new ref from Gdsx which made it work?
