PS3 Compatibility List - PS2 on PS3

[aldostools]

Thanks for the report. Config fixes texture issues due to mipmapping, and kozarovv's fix is already in the config. Some games have some minor SPS issues like this, but I didn't notice this or any others while playing. Good eye for finding this, but there's no point in fixing something so minor.

But is it fixable? IMO if it could be fixed, then why let it have glitches?

It might be possible. Most of the time stuff like this requires some special config command that isn't fully understood by me (0x12 or 0x08). Maybe 0x07 or an accuracy command could fix it, but overall just unsure. I will look into it later, though.

I think it was previously unknown until your discovery.

I think it was previously unknown until your discovery.

Maybe ntsc version not have that bug, thats why u not see this)) how u think?

 

[Rafaelrios]

why

Max Payne

-ntsc use a custom config?game is a officiall ps2 classic.

 

[mrjaredbeta]

That is possible, and it wouldn't be the first game to have graphical differences between regions. I will test it when I have time.

@Rafaelrios I think custom config is based from gx config (removed serial from end of config). I'm pretty sure net and gx configs are the same for this game.

Well was test my pal version. Looks like its not fix graphical glitches.

@mrjaredbeta, in ur post u say - (thanks to @kozarovv for PAL fix). Where i can find kozz fix for pal version?

Full video of test here

I did that config blindly by the offset difference between the NTSC and PAL versions. I am not testing games, because I have got a little time for it. If you want, you could remove the "0F 00 00 00 80 0F 12 00 80 10 12 00" from the config, please, to check if that is the cause of malfunction.

maybe @mrjaredbeta do new config, if no, then no, honestly its not my type of game, just like test!

@Vika23, do not tarnish the @mrjaredbeta reputation. It was my fault and laziness. This config should work, but the code does differ slightly between the versions, but I hope the range is right.

Lol, im respect all work, also @mrjaredbeta and urs of course! I try check that config soon!

Lol! It's no big deal, I didn't sense anything like that happening. I am just a random dude fixin games. The fix is for something completely different anyways, so there's like a 0% chance that your port affected the graphics on Vika's video.

@Vika23 Thank you for all of your testing and also providing videos. It is very handy to be able to see the bug in real time.

hmm try test it anyway

 

[Vika23]

I've only had 1 freeze that occured picking up a item and while using the turbo (that you get after completing tricks). But it's also not popping up always. Got it in Snowdream while pickung up the item that lets you complete tricks faster.

Was test Snowdream today, pickung up the item and still no freeze...just for info..

Together with the one and only @mrjaredbeta we figured out the debug values responsible for the rendering options (thanks to the hidden debug menu left!). Particles and fog disabled. The draw distance is heavy lowered - there are visible textures pop in. It was all done to lower the slowdowns as much as possible. It works without a hitch in the bumper and hood camera view. In the indoor view there could be slowdowns on some tracks (Monte Carlo SS2 notably, a very heavy track, netemu struggles a lot there). The performance in the chase cams are the worst - on the Monte Carlo SS2, the in game time could be about 10 seconds slower than in the real life. Just like with the rally cross stages - slowdowns where there are a lot of opponent cars nearby. Thankfully, the time is not so important in that mode.

All freezes fixed thanks to the 0x41 command (a breakthrough fix by the Patchmachine @mrjaredbeta)! The original GX config has got a branch delay value left unpatched, it is fixed as well. The game, with the minor issues I have described, could be enjoyed and completed.

If someone has got a French version WRC avec Sebastien Loeb 2005 Edition (SCES-53680), please contact me to create a working patch for this version also.

Was test it! Will confirm all description above! Record greece stage for info...

Yes but not everybody has a PC that can play it or an Xbox.

 

[Rafaelrios]

not everyone live in first world to play on pc,here on brazil people still play ps2.

 

[MadSaint1998]

Scarface The World Is Yours has hidden Debug Menu and a Developer Menu. Debug menu was discovered and activated in the PC version while Developer menu still needs to be activated somehow, its listed under scriptc/editor.cso if i'm not mistaken... i'm not sure if PS2 version has these menus.
