I think the FMV-crashes gamefix is something added semirecently that simply skips all FMVs it didn't exist the last time I used it. The way I got around it was just switching gsdx to software mode during that one sequence, then going back to hardware after it was over. I only remember having one FMV crash issue toward the very end of #1, which I think is what you're talking about. I'm playing Digital Devil Saga 1 and it's freezing every time during the cutscene where the blue guy sees Serph and scowls at the big karma temple meeting, apparently it was going to switch over from FMV to in-game graphics maybe? But I'm just wondering what options I can try to mess with to fix this? One pcsx2 forum post mentioned something about a game fix that dealt with FMV crashes but I didn't see it, maybe it's old and gone in the latest revision?Ī couple years ago I finished DDS1 and went about halfway through DDS2 on PCSX2. I of course tried adding lines as well (such as just Skipdraw=1), to no avail. I ask because I still see those black bars after doing so. I shouldn't have to add any lines to get this hack to work, correct? I just have to set these to 1: I've been kind of ignoring the black bars, but I figure I might as well give this a go now. It's just a matter of being interested in a specific game enough to find the values to edit. Pretty much every game is widescreen hackable now thanks to ELF editing. There's been a ton of progress recently due to help from PSX-Scene. Save state compatibility will be broken from your older build to the new ones so make hard saves (save to a memory card) to keep your progress.Īlso on an unrelated note, there's info about how to set up widescreen patches (.pnach) and a link to the PCSX2 thread in the OP. I suggest reverting back to your latest GSdx plugin once you're out of the dungeon. Most of the Cutie hacks have long since been merged into the main GSdx branch aside from that specific VP2 fix because it breaks too many other games. The first dungeon in the game, Lost Forest, suffers from severe graphics issues so you'll be forced to play in software mode or you can also use the modded GSdx-Cutie plugin to go through the Lost Forest in hardware mode. Set Skipdraw=1 in GSdx's hacks to get rid of black bars.
