For me its still dont work, i try configs from both folders, and always get "no signal".
Maybe its my problem, i use habib 4.81+mm4.81, old configs works for me.

I now use habib 4.81+mm4.81 to, and work for me. Change you strings iso to ISO?
 
@sandungas yes i tested both config files gxmenu and softemu on Ace Combat 5 - The Unsung War: SLUS_208.51, the game works but nothing fixes the the fliquering squares on the ground,

I already tested also the game ace combat belkan war USA with cong files SLUS_213.46 from gxemu and softemu, the game works but suffers the same problem as the ace combat 5, fliquering squares on the ground,

would be insteresting see what part of the ace combat shatering skies config is fixing this issue in that game because the game runs beautifull.

UPDATE: checked ACE combat belkan war USA md5 on magnagunz, showed real MD5 and beloow on RESULT says UNVALID

UPDATE 2: Tested SLUS_210.50.CONFIG (softemu version) rom Burnout 3 on USA Need for speed underground 2 as someone adviced that it might work since that game as NFSU2 demo on it and it works slightly better.

Please check the MD5 of the others, im guesing is going to tell you:
shatered skies = valid
unsung war = unvalid
belkan war = unvalid

If is like that we are lucky :)
As said before, the MD5 needs to match exactly for that configs to work, if it doesnt matches is imposible for the config to work

The burnout 3 config is not that kind... is doing some generic stuff and can be used in any other game (i think is disabling some stuff... and as consequence is reducing the workload)
An small improvement in NFSU2 imo is good news too, becase that game seems to be in the limit of what the "emulated PS2" can manage, by looking at the official configs it doesnt looks like sony had to "patch" some code... so the code in NFSU2 is fine for the emulator... there is nothing to patch in it... all we can do is to "spice" it :D

Something is wrong then, all of my games show as invalid when checking on the ps3, i checked ace combat shattered skies md5 on pc and looked for it on internet, took me to redump.org were it totaly matches the md5 i got when checked on pc:

MD5: 8c7cbadb78b2eebeabbf546e0c1d0372

Well, not sure what to say, zar could answer this better than me, but initially if managunz tells it has a different MD5 i guess managunz is right and the ISO was modiyed at some point

Maybe is because you used some of the optional settings for that PS2 game that appears in managunz ? (the widescreen, 480P, YFIX, FMV skip), that ones could patch the ISO permanently (so the MD5 changes and maybe that makes it incompatible with the config)
If you did use that options... by using them again the patch is removed and the ISO should be restored as if it was original (so an MD5 check after removing that optional patches should result in a VALID)

Don't trust too much on managunz, i'm more confident on Microsoft stuff than mine lol.
I'll try to find out what's wrong, thanks for the feedbacks :p

@TheDemon It's true ! You must disable every patch ;)
 
I tried burnout 3 with both configs and without them and all three times was good, but in first race in "city" part it has fps drops (so no config imrovements). And tried nfsu2 with both burnout configs and resulta are still the same...
 
Dont know whats wrong but im getting the same md5 in diferent games both starting with D14, ace Shattered Skies and nfsmw, didnt compared to others cause dont have them on the console at the moment. i would put screnshot or take a picture but im not at home and dont have Internet at home for the moment. Strange issue, can someone check it in magnagunz?
 
So it was my mistake after all, config works. I make some test. All games is US.

Ace combat - all three games has a texture bugs, config dont fix it. But looks like config fix transparent textures, so now its possible to finish the game.

Crash twinsanity - freeze at loading.

Dropship - works.

Lord of the ring fotr - works.

Marvel nemesis - freeze at loading.

Nfsu2 - still very slow.

Parappa 2 - still freeze at movies.

Project eden - works.

Ratchet and clank - all games run, but with heavy texture bugs, almost unplayable.

Savage skies - works.

Timesplitters2 - black screen.

Transformers - works, but very slow.


Ace combat, Ratchet and Clank, Ape escape 2 has very common bugs, when camera close to object everything is ok. But when camera goes far from object, textures become a mess. Looks like config cant fix this problem (
 
For the record...

Some time ago here in the thread when was found that there was a command that fixed all games built over "snowblind engine" (the baldurs gate, champions of norrath, etc...) we tolk a lot about them, after that not more talk about it, was considered good enought because fixed that big problem with textures placement (but the game still had some minor bugs)

But now that the configs has been extracted from gxemu and softemu... it can be seen how all that games was fixed officially (there are configs for all them)
That configs uses more commands, are official, and are hooking functions to offsets of the game (so are replacing game code)
I dont remember anyone reporting about that new configs for the "snowblind games"... but i bet are going to work much better

Anyway... after the new ones are verifyed the old configs posted here should be deleted/replaced

@chicco33 @Zar ...or anyone that was making his personal collections kee this in mind... the old ones was ok but the new ones are going to be better (and with luck maybe perfect and definitive)
