La Pucelle problem

[Hedgecat]

Despite that apparently, La Pucelle is listed as one of the compatible games with PCSX2 0.9.4, every time I attempt to run the game, I keep getting the same problem, namely that there seems to be a missing patch for the game itself. As a result, this usually ends in the emulator crashing.

Now, is a patch not normally needed for La Pucelle on PCSX2 0.9.4, or do I need to try find one?

I do not think that patch is a problem. You don't need a patch to play a game. You can disable that by uncheck Misc/Enable Patches.

However, your problem may lay on the videos. You may need a patch to skip the videos. I did test the game with PCSX2 0.9.2 , ( I did not use Video patch ) and it is fully playable. I think I got full speed when I tested it. So check the Console window, and see what kind of error messages you get

Decided to do a check of the error report that was continually popping up. Seems my Dev9 plugin was causing the crashes. Apparently there wasn't, as you said, a problem with a patch.

I lay the blame on the error jumping up whenever the console got to the stage for checking patches. Bad judgement on my part I guess. Thanks for testing for me though.
