Fixing unplayable games
Not at all, settings won't affect it. Can you send me IOP dump from savestate?

Edit: Looks like patch is not working for everyone, that why patching IOP memory is tricky. Probably relocation. Sad
I personally tested it on 2 pcsx2 builds, latest git, and some random 2xxx. Worked fine. Using all speedhacks, work fine. Tested 2 different BIOSes, my 190, and 220 devel bios extracted from MY ps3, work fine.

Here is proof: youtube com/ watch? v=ffuiWztekkM
So.. Until this gonna be fixed in emulator code (special case), here is code to fix that in game image (bin/cue):

Find:
Code:
01 00 01 3C 21 08 22 00 C0 95 20 AC 01 00 01 3C 21 08 22 00 C4 95 20 AC 20 00 62 28 EB FF 40 14 40 11 03 00 44 03 00 0C 00 80 04 34 00 80 04 34 01 00 10 3C B0 9B 10 26 44 03 00 0C 00 00 02 AE 00 80 04 34 44 03 00 0C 04 00 02 AE 00 80 04 34 01 00 10 3C 48 A7 10 26 44 03 00 0C 00 00 02 AE

Replace to:
Code:
01 00 01 3C 21 08 22 00 C0 95 20 AC 01 00 01 3C 21 08 22 00 C4 95 20 AC 20 00 62 28 EB FF 40 14 40 11 03 00 44 03 00 0C 00 88 04 34 00 88 04 34 01 00 10 3C B0 9B 10 26 44 03 00 0C 00 00 02 AE 00 88 04 34 44 03 00 0C 04 00 02 AE 00 88 04 34 01 00 10 3C 48 A7 10 26 44 03 00 0C 00 00 02 AE

We are patching memory allocation for decompression in SOUNDREL.IRX.

I was using a bit older orphis build and it wasn't working with that. I retested it with newest orphis build and now it's working. Good job with the patch.

Good to hear that. Smile
I will leave my edit in previous post in case that patch will stop working someday.

I just discovered thatthe patch needs default ee cycle rate to work. Also the game still suffers from many other graphical bugs which I believe are core issues and can't be fixed with patches.

Hi to all,
it would be possible to have a step-by-step guide for applying Shadow Man 2 patch? Unfortunately I am not so skilled on this topic but is the last remaining game in my collection I still have to play by real PS2 so any help to finally put my console to rest is really appreciated.

Sorry for my bad English

This patch is only added to NTSC-U version.
What is the mean of the patch ?
Is it necessary for the old version of PCSX2, or the current version ?

That's an old patch and redundant now. New patch was already posted in this thread few pages back.
