Also, he won't give a shit about any of this; he is very, very much a single-issue voter wrt the driver. If it's not dithering the Gouraud polys, we are the suckiest sucks to ever suck.

Beetlejuice is one of my favourite movies, but let's try to stay on topic

Carl: Are you interested if I do some testing and publish the results?

Sure, I don't have a problem with that.

Ok, I report only things that didn't worked in my testing:

Battle Qix
Hangs as soon as you beat a level, it's probably a trivial fix.



Brave Fencer Musashi
black screen on initial FMV (it's some kind of title screen transition), dies after Chapter 1 screen shows up. Apparently pSX has problems with it too (iirc fussy CD-Rom timings)



Diablo
Black screen after the disclaimer screen.

Dragon Valor
Black screen, reads from unmapped addresses.

Final Fantasy VIII
Obviously the protection isn't yet cracked, just wanted to debug trick it:











(the battle transition gfx is completely broken but oh well ...)

(to be continued ...)

I tried Castlevania Symphony of the Night and was prompted by the game to format the memory cards which appeared to be successful. Then I saved the game, but when I restarted mess, I was prompted to format the memory cards again.

Should I see a file in the memcards directory, like memcards/psu/something? Or would it be in nvram?

(Edit: I saved the game again, did a soft reset with F3 and the memory cards appeared and my save game was there. But quitting and starting MESS couldn't find the memory cards.)

(Edit: Carl says this is expected behavior, since the memory card is not yet saved on exit. Thanks Carl! It's looking great so far!)

Bakuten Shoot Beyblade 2002 - Bey Battle Tournament 2:
Works only on 4.0+ bios (but the little bit that I played (and lost) it works



Dance Dance Revolution: Disney Mix

Works, but the music in the song selection is played at the wrong spees, once one get to the song it self it plays correctly




Dino Crisis still get stuck here:


Tekken 3: Playable


CTR - Crash Team Racing; hangs here:


But it shows first the full logo, and when it suppose to start the cd it throws this and semi hangs MESS, and in a window it crashes.

Someone test Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasi for me

Memory cards still aren't saved once you exit, yet. They should work if you do a soft reset though.

The Dungeon RPG
Working now.





Gran Turismo









King's Field 2
Black screen.

Legacy of Kain
FMVs are now jumpy. It still hangs at a dialogue line after few secs of a new game.



LSD - Dream Emulator
Black screen with some music playing in the background.

Mahjong Station Mazin
Black screen.


Metal Gear Solid VR Missions
BGMs pitch is slower than expected during gameplay. Otherwise working. Minor gfx bug when in PSG1 mode:







Micro Machines V3
Again, sound pitch issues (too fast this time around). Plus, whatever mode you choose it seems to hang just before showing the character talking (FMV).

Night Raid
Black screen at the FMV. It should also have missing backgrounds just like GNET version (pSXAuthor knows why)

Tekken 3
Works now
