LMA Manager 2005

[FabSTAR]

Hello guys,

i tried to start the very old LMA Manager 2005 and it works in the menus, but if i want to start a 3D-match he just loads like forever and nothing happens.
I really dont know why. I am able to play Final Fantasy X without any problems, so i guess my system should be fine. So maybe there some settings i need to change.

system:
i7 3770
8GB Ram
GTX 970
Win 7 

bios:
Europe v 2.0
PCSX2 1.2.1r5873

Is the game compatible with pcsx2? I found LMA 2003 in your list which seems to be compatible but no information about LMA 2005. I would really appreciate if someone has some ideas, i really loved the game when i was a kid.

Please post you settings and the full emulog after you observed the hang.

My testing suggests that game will only work when you enable speed hacks and use eecycle rate other than 0.

Which settings exactly do you need?

I think it would be easier if someone here could tell me some settings which will work for him on this game or maybe someone who has a clue which settings could cause trouble with LMA 2005. In the emulog is no crash listed because it dont crash it just loads and loads and loads and nothing happens. Like he simply cant load a 3D-Game.

If someone who speaks german can help me feel free to PM me that would be helpful to me.

@prafull: I tried to change EE Cydrate from 1 to 2 and 3 but it seems that he still cant load a 3D game

Which settings exactly do you need?

please provide a screenshot of each tab

In the emulog is no crash listed

still, post its content

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.

Maybe test if manual gamefix -> ee timing hack and/or ee rounding and clamping (lowest option - i think full) modes change something.

And keep ee cyclerate hack at above 0. maybe prafull is right.

Why ffx video hack? Why oph flag? Did you try disabling ee timing hack?

[FabSTAR]

ffx video hack was activated because i played ffx long time ago and the video sequences had a bad quality. I dont know if that changed something, but it seems it was activated until now.

I tried clampingmode full now and i tried disabling ee timing hack already before you suggested it to me.
I activated it again after you post it and then tried again, but still nothing changed :/. So with/without eetiming hack no difference at all.
I really dont know why he cant start the 3D game, but everything else. He can load the menus, he can load the 3D-trikots, he can load the 3D-stadiums, but it seems he simply cant load a complete 3D game.
