So I own a MC2SIO and I am happy with it. It's a genius way to load your backups. Is there a way to install Freemcboot onto MC2SIO directly without using the memory card each time I need to launch OPL ? It would be so convenient to have an all in one card to load the games directly. As each...

Good evening everyone. I would like to thank you El_Patas for your amazing research in regards to the problems with this game. hope the freezing problems get fixed in the coming versions of OPL. So CDVD reads overwriting IOP memory is the cause of the issue is from what I understood from your...

Thank you for your help. It matches the one in the redump. I found another thread with another user having the same issue with the japanese version as well here: https://www.ps2-home.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6940 It seems it works just fine through SMB and USB only. No luck with HDD

I tried them plus version 0.9.3 still give the same problem. I notice the moment the game boots, the HDD light turns on and never blinks like it froze. All the versions I tested freezes at the same time. I tried some combination of modes, still the same result.

Hello guys I hope you are all doing well during this pandemic. I just wanna say I do appreciate all your hard work on improving OPL. I tried Dirge of Cerberus - Final Fantasy VII - Japanese version through HDD. It seems it freezes right after the Square Enix logo. I tried a the newest OPL...

@Grahf and @El_Patas I just tried with clean ISO of KHFM and it got passed the black screen and worked. Thank you both for the information. Still I would like to try the English translation using burned DVD on the PS2 to check if will freeze again. Unfortunately my DVD burner broke so I can't...

So I tried Kingdom Hearts Final Mix English Patched with OPL There seems to be a black screen error after you first fight Leon in Traverse Town. I tried both USB and HDD they both have the black screen. Tried searching online and found that this issue does not have a fix yet. Does anyone have...

Well I thought about what you said and thought maybe because my PS2 is chipped, it didn't work. So luckily, I have a backup PS2 that is not chipped and thought I could test if the chip caused an issue My original chipped PS2 is model 39001 and the backup one is 50001 I got the same result...

Thank you for your support @El_Patas, I really appreciate it. I am using the official Sony adapter and never going to back to Gamestar. I will try out all new different speeds for Tales of the Abyss and see which one click and report here after work. As for Clock Tower 3 it's really weird...

Tried all modes and still didn't work. Even tried playing a bit through USB and saving. Then continue the save through HDD and still not load. Using USB no modes were used and played fine with stuttering cutscenes. The weird thing is that of all the compatibility lists I checked it's either...

Does Clock Tower 3 work with HDD ? After pressing new game, it stays in black screen. Tried MDMA 0 same results Tried with USB, works fine stutters a bit with cutscenes but works.

Dear @El_Patas Sorry for the late reply. I just got off work. I tried with USB it gave me the same results sadly I also tried with 0.88 and 0.8 and no dice. Still freeze. It's weird what causes the freeze. Thank you for testing with SMB too. I hope it gets fixed soon.. Regards

You don't need to enter Shurrey Hills to trigger the war cutscene. You can directly fly the ship at the center of the map and you will receive this message "The power of the sephiroth can be used to lift the Albiore ot the Outer Lands" then you press circle to ascend the ship to the...

Thank you! This version actually did fix the music problem. I used Mode 1 and UDMA 4 just like you said. This is very good step in fixing the problems with this game. I will be using this version from now on :) However, it sadly didn't fix a certain freeze that occurred while testing the game...

The official PS2 adapter does work much better than the gamestar one. It does not hang at the green screen when choosing UDMA 4 and loads fast. I will never go back to the gamestar one, especially since it does not have ethernet support. I uploaded my save file to check. The sound problem...
