Ff9 Cd3

Tamahome00 · October 2nd, 2002

On Disc 3 of the American version of Final Fantasy 9, when it loads the first movie (I think), right after Kuja said:

"Your former master is here, Bahamut
Play a requiem for her and all of Alexandria"

The Movie suppose to load, but instead...

ePSXe just crashes

... I used the CD, didn't work. I mad an ISO out of it using CloneCD, still had the same thing.

Did you get any read errata?

Tamahome00 · October 2nd, 2002

There was no Error Data at all, it's like brand new, no scratches on the back of the CD.

Using save states in ff9 is known to cause that part to crash horribly. If you are using them, switch to normal memory cards.

Tamahome00 · October 3rd, 2002

Yeah, it's bad to use sstates

But when I saved to a memory card, then play my final round for the card game, and when the Kuja part ends, it still crashes, even when I removed the sstates.

Does that mean I have to restart all over again?

F-3582 · October 3rd, 2002

A stupid question: Did you also load from memcard?

silveryillusion · October 4th, 2002

it happened to me too

i have restarted the game and deactivated all cheats but it still happens.
My ssister can play it ok for 2 times but i can't.
She uses the 1.4.0 versh. and uninstalled the 1.5.2 versh. and installed the 1.4.0 versh. on my cpu but it still crashes.
