Ending......or not?

ezzarian · July 11th, 2005

I finished fighting the blue fugly guy and got to the part where Zidane goes to Kuja's rescue! The, when all thorn vines come out, the screen just jams up! It just shows Zidane standing there during the movie! I'm using ePSXe 1.6.0 and the settings are from Lord Kaine's site! Can anybody help?

Lord Zedeck · July 11th, 2005

Use ePSXe 1.5.2, as 1.6.0 has known issues at locking up with Final Fantasy IX (and other versions).

It continues on more, but that's the end of the game.

ezzarian · July 11th, 2005

Oh, well I just wanted to watch the part where there's a big crowd, Zidane and Garnet and all that! Did you guys get to see it on ePSXe?

**n_w95482** · July 11th, 2005

The people who used ePSXe 1.5.2 saw it

**hushypushy** · July 11th, 2005

yay ezzarian welcome to the club you have found one of the inevitable crashes of FF9! i played FF9 with ePSXe 1.6.0 just to find em. and this is one of those spots. except, not many people actually play to the very end of the game. so consider yourself special!

DemonSui · July 11th, 2005

yea, some of us can't even get through the 2nd fight... (with the SFX)

_mr_m_ · July 12th, 2005

is this another one of those problems in 1.6.0 with the 3D characters being mixed in with the FMV sequences?
im trying to complete the entire game, and im keeping track of all the problematic spots i encounter using v1.6.0 (im only using 1.5.2 as a 'bail' to get past whats keeping me from continuing). so far, ive only hit 1 bug. so maybe im lucky?

xRock · July 12th, 2005

i played the whole thing on 1.6.0 and countered two problems (FMV only) one on the first cd when getting off the plane in Dali and the second on the part where you are stuck...I used the Xenogears trick to get past em.

. Worked for me hitting F5 (or was it F7) just before the FMV starts and hit it again once you are past the stuck point.

thats more or less what i did. only thing i did differently was use 1.5.2 on the Dali airship FMV problem,
so maybe, if youre lucky, and have 1.6.0 set right you might be able to play through without problems
lucky us!

**hushypushy** · July 12th, 2005

i played it with 1.6.0 and i got Dali (disc 1), Alexandria (disc3), and the ending (disc4 duh). Raziel told me he beat it fully on 1.6.0 with the french PAL version...i dont believe him though

ezzarian · July 12th, 2005

I've tried 1.5.2, 1.6.0 and Delta but it all doesn't work! Maybe I should try that F5 thing!

Lord Zedeck · July 12th, 2005

Well, if the screen just jams up no matter what version you try, then I would presume it's a bad ISO, or a scratched disc if you're playing from one.

**hushypushy** · July 12th, 2005

remember, dont load off save state. try PSXeven or PCSX.

ezzarian · July 12th, 2005

Okay I'll try!*fingers crossed*

it's possible, PAL versions are not only coded differently, they run differently too.
I've seen here that Gundom Battle assult 2 doesn't work, but my NTSC U/C does. as a matter of fact, I was playing it sunday.

**hushypushy** · July 13th, 2005

well, everyone else who's played PAL FF9 has had the same problem so...i dunno. but Raziel (erm, Ronan) is a trustworthy source so...

only problems ive encountered so far- except the ending. this is the first time ive actually PLAYED FFIX. so dont spoil the end for me!

**hushypushy** · July 13th, 2005

heh, tehre is a crash in an FMV at the end. just use 1.5.2 or PSXeven and you'll be fine

gaijinx1 · July 13th, 2005

My brother and I experienced the same thing. He beat Necron(?), saw the part when Zidane wants to find Kuja and talk to him. After that, the airship takes off and the FMV shows a lot of distortion then freezes. I find it kinda stange how 1.5.2 works better than 1.6.0 w/FFIX. But yeah, it kinda pissed my brother and I off, though.

**n_w95482** · July 13th, 2005

That's one of the things that happens with emulation. You fix some things and sometimes you break other things at the same time
