So.... ICO is playable now? Compatibility list says yes.

Finished the game, 10 hrs.

A work of art. Both, the game and the emulator

This game is absolutely stable, beautiful, and glitches-free if we don't count incorrect shadows of the characters. Also, full speed on C2D 2.8. I would call it perfectly emulated.

hi
i cant launch my ico, black screen
any idea?

[zomurn]

Me too, I read all the topic, I've everything and black screen with file/dvd and ps2 bios with run/execute ! Gsdx 0.1.4 of course !
I really don't know why it doesn't work at my home but to your home

PS: PAL version

ICO runs flawlessly with mine...but then again i have the NTSC version. Try out some of the options in the graphics settings, or maybe theres a fix somewhere?

Hi , i just restarted it and no wall of fog appears now, I switched the bios to USA version, dont know if thats made it work? strange

what kind of fps are u getting on ur setup? maybe my 8200 isnt that great

....

I confirm i got the same Fog problem untill i switched to USA BIOS. (thanx you to notice that, i was becoming mad with this fog problem as i saw not many people had this problem.)

i switched to USA BIOS

you have more than one ps2?

[zomurn]

Maybe he has bought one and decompiled the bios !

[zomurn]

What a F*** ! I've done it ! I succeed in playing it ! I found the trick !

I'am going to tell you all the truth :
I play with the latest svn version of pcsx2 0.9.6 : the rev 835.
But the key to make the game working (from pal version in my case) is to respect these 3 rules :

1) Use *ONLY* USA bios (europe v2.0 doesn't work for this game)
2) Set in advanced dialog, the good options (see pic)
3) Launch the game with Execute (and wait at least 15sec !)

And that's all, all other parameters are not important. See the attachment for all my parameters + the pics at 2560x1600 internal res .
It is a pity that the special effect of blur is so much pronounced :/ (I though it was a graphic bug but not at all, it is the game)







zerodi > these above are beautiful screens .

1) Use *ONLY* USA bios (europe v2.0 doesn't work for this game)

but what if the person only has europe v2.0? (there's no support for piracy in this forum )

[zomurn]

Then he need to buy another the ps2 and decompile the bios ! It's easy
