[Bug Report]DragonQuest VIII[Pal]

[omnikam]

Hey im Playing the Pal version of DragonQuest VIII i ripped it from my DVD and am using it with Psx2.0.9.6 with pluggins that came with the official build.
No speed hacks, everything Default, but doesnt work with speed hacks either

# PCSX2 version: Official Beta 1888, Official v0.9.6 release
# CPU options: EErec on, VUrec0 and VUrec1 on, MTGS on
# Plugins used: GSdx 0.1.14 (hardware and software, dx10, dx9)Gsdx 0.1.15(hardware and software, dx10, dx9), ZeroGS 0.97.1, pu2x 1.4.0
# Problem
Okay it doesnt seem to matter what pluggins i use or even what version of PCsX2 i use and ive tried on r1888 and 0.9.7 beta`s latest r2661
The problem is not present until the spell sizz is learnt, when ever i cast this spell the game crashes out with this error
vtlb miss : addr 0x70, mode 0
Whats strange is i can cast other spells without problem.
Im at a loss to what might be causing this one
ps patches are off. but on is a crash as well
Please Help if you can as this is an awsome game
update: when using a legacy version i get the above error plus this new one-
Pc: 0x0014cc0c Cycle:0x5ddeab69
Latest update ; i found an old version that doesnt have the Fatal Spell error
it seems that Pcsx2 playground v1.0.0395 VM works without crashing using All the latest pluggings from the 0.9.6 . i hope this helps someone fix the weird issue
edit Also works fine in the old v0.9.5 watermoose VM compile
Seems to be 0.9.6 and onwards that dont work

A copy of the mem card can be found here

It has the saved game that might be used for testing. just leave the coastal town and have a fight and cast sizz, there you will find the crash

added a error report

not a valid bug report.
moved
try the latest beta and the latest plugins pack (read the stickies)

[omnikam]

@jesalvein ive tried with the latest beta`s and pluggins. its still broke
I might be new to posting but ive been using Pcsx2 for years.
Its a genuine error

[jesalvein]

yeah, sorry, i misread your post.

are you using any speedhacks, by the way ?

[omnikam]

Ive tried it with and without speed hacks. Doesnt seem to have an effect on the bug
The Playground build works with All speed hacks running as did versions v0.9.5. The bug seems to be introduced somewhere in early 0.9.6 builds
Id like to get my hands on some of those builds so i can pinpoint where it started

[jesalvein]

it could be a gsdx bug too.

did you try to laucnch that spell in gsdx software mode ?

[omnikam]

yep, still fails, software directX10 and 9 and hardware etc
also it works with the latest gsdx but only in earlier Pcsx2 builds thats why i think it to be a Pcsx2 error

[jesalvein]

ok, back to bug reporting section, then

[omnikam]

This problem is Fixed in Pcsx2 r2869
I think we can close this one
