Final Fantasy XII (12) Unable to Save on MMC?

[KENNITHH]

Hi there

My problem is that whenever I want to save at a crystal, it doesn't show me the save menu, just a black screen which stays there so I have to save with F1.
But now I'm in Nam-Yensa Sandsea and it automaticly pops up a screen to save so I can't get past there :/

Any suggestions?

1) Use beta 0.9.7
2) Disable ALL speed hacks
3) Disable all game fixes (there is NONE for FFXII so no idea which you used)
4) Set VU and EE clamping back to normal from none.

Try without speedhacks, disable the gamefixes, set the advanced settings to default.
Make sure the memcard is formatted and working.

Do you get any kind of error in the console/output window when the error happens?

[KENNITHH]

I did this now with 0.9.6

Turn off all speedhacks, disable the 2 gamefixed and did all advanced settings to default but still doesn't work.

Nothing shows in the console only when I press esc it says this
* SPU2: Waiting for DSound thread to finish... Done.

Nothing else, and ow at top there is something like

5664 | 512 x 448 | 60.95 fps (101%) | Interlaced (field) - None |16:9 | 0/51/22 | 9% CPU | 420.66 | 86.00

and when I try to save at the crystal or that screen, everything behind 16:0 goes to 0 so 0/0/0 | 0%CPU | 0.00 | 0.00

I'll try to do it with 0.9.7 now

& hmm whenever I want to start my game it starts the ps2 menu :/
what am I doing wrong?

I'm talking about 0.9.7 now

EDIT: Ok I have accomplished to make the cd work but now I can't load my savestates from the 0.9.6?

[Bositman]

No 0.9.6 states are not compatible with 0.9.7 states. You don't have ANY memcard save from the game? It is very possible the bug has been recorded per say on your saved state so no matter what settings you change the moment you load it, the bug gets loaded too...

[KENNITHH]

Ok I've tried 0.9.7 , Result : I can load the game , get into save menus but I can't load my savestates

0.9.6 , I read that it has to do something with SPU2-X plugin so I downloaded some others but still no savemenu

[KENNITHH]

Hmm no I don't have any memcard saves because every time I tried a crystal the screen turns black and nothing happens...
& ow thats painfull, to start from the beginning, I also send a pm to Kopogero because he had the same problem and he fixed it with some sound plugin.


EDIT: I'm starting the game from the beginning again, hopefully it will work now :/

Thanks anyway !

I think your getting save files and save states mixed up. As the above poster said, 0.9.6 save STATES are not compatible with 0.9.7. The memory card save FILES are compatible.

This may sound stupid but have you selected and enabled a memory card? Have you formatted it? Does the memory card work with other games?

If you do have a memory card selected, did you select the official Sony 8MB version? Selecting others might give you save errors.

[KENNITHH]

I know what Save states and memory card saves are

I just cant get to the screen to save on a memory card (it turns black and CPU use 0%), I can only use save states so thats why I'm using it

But now I'm at a location where it automaticly chooses to get to the screen to save on a memory card but I can't see them so game hangs

& yes i have memory card enabled and yes its formatted but this is the only game I play on ps2 because fifa street 2 doesn't work properly x)

(I've played final fantasy 10 on the pcsx2 before and I could save there but it was on 0.9.4)


EDIT : (I'm now playing on 0.9.7 from the beginning and I can save at a crystal now , but hmpf now I lost all my saves )
