Metal Gear Solid 3 crashes and freezes
#1
I've been trying to play MGS3 and have been running into some major issues. It seems when walking into specific areas of the game, PCSX2 will stop responding or the game will lock up and freeze after being in that area for a few seconds. This was most notably in the swap area with the crocodiles, which through luck I managed to run through and get out of before the game could crash. Now however, it's happening again at the area surrounding the cave that EVA tells you to go in, so I can't progress at all.

I've been trying all day with numerous fixes, nothings working. Can anyone help?

I'm using GSdx ssse3 and Direct3D11 (Hardware), apart from that all default, and I'm playing off an ISO.

Try latest PCSX2 from http://buildbot.orphis.net/pcsx2

Also why SSSE3? That CPU supports AVX2 which would be better.

Oh, I didn't know. It didn't fix my problem when I tried using it, but if it's better I guess i'll use it.
I did download 1.3.1 to see if that would fix it, but my saves didn't work, so I think I transferred them incorrectly. I will try this, but how do I transfer savestates? (if it's even possible to transfer saves between versions)

It isn't possible.

You need to make a memory card save and load from that.

See the link in my signature(General FAQ), section about save states.

If that doesn't fix it then remake your ISO with imgburn.

I just moved the memory card save over to 1.3.1, and I seem to be able to enter the area now. Hopefully this remains consistent. Thanks!
