Hi, i've been experiencing random freezes when i spent more than 30 min. in the game (sometimes less), this problem mostly happens when i'm entering a battle, when that happens the screen splits in half and the audio goes crazy. (it doesn't let me restart the game, only shut down)

Here's a screenshot:

Im using the nightly - v1.7.5148 and my graphics settings are in default with only the CRT lottes shader

My PC:
Windows 11 64 bits
AMD Ryzen 5 5600G 3.90 GHz
16 GB ram

I forgot to mention that this problem didn't happen with DDS1 until late end game. maybe it's a update problem (?)

Please post the contents of the emulog.txt file after the problem occurs. The file can be found in "My Documents\PCSX2\logs" for the installer version or in "PCSX2\logs" for the portable/binary version.

Please make sure to enclose your emulog in code tags like so (remove the empty space on the closing code tag!):

Hi, sorry for answering so late.
There wasn't any emulog.txt file, i checked various times and the file didn't appear. But i downloaded a different version (1.7.5068) and i can cofirm iit's an update problem since the game stopped freezing, i don't know in wich specific version started to appear the problem.

Sorry if this information wasn't of any help. Thank You.

tools->enable file logging.
that will create the emulog while you reproduce the issue

I'm having identical issues to the one posted in OP, I rebooted up the game on the 1.7.5161 version with the file logging enabled and got this after a random encounter started and froze

I've also been running the 1.6 version without seeing this issue

I've been having the exact same issues since starting the game myself last night. Cutscenes either freeze the emulator, only leaving the audio and softlocking or straight up cause it to CTD. Battles always seem to have a slim chance of locking the emulator up same as OP. I don't currently have an emulog file it was overwritten but I do have a crash dump from when it happened earlier this afternoon. I'm on the latest nightly build as well v1.7.5186.

Edit: Was playing more shortly after posting and had the battle transition freeze happen again, it won't let me post the emulog how you guys want it, it says there's a URL in the post and blocks it so I've instead attached it along with the initial crash log that occurred from a cutscene CTDing.

The read aborts in the emulog are weird. It's almost as if your disk image file is corrupted or dumped improperly.
I don't own the game so I'm unable to test on my side. Does it work with original disk?

I dumped it myself from the physical disc with imgburn, I actually created a 1.6 install, copied the memory cards and continued and have had 0 issues since doing this.

The Read Aborts are totally normal on DDS

if this is happening a lot, if someone can give a way to easily reproduce it, that would be useful.

***refraction*** · 11-11-2023, 02:49 PM

Can somebody try this build, somebody on the discord is saying it fixed the random encounter hangs https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/suites/18...1042959678

You will need Github account to access it, also make sure you don't overwrite your normal nightly install.
