Problems with a couple Simple 2000 games

[synce]

The first one is Simple 2000 Series Ultimate Vol.26: The Love Smash! 5.1 (SLPM-62635). The game starts up fine but freezes or crashes right before it can render any 3D graphics. This is the error log from 0.9.8:

Code:

GIFTAG warning, size exceeded VU memory size 400

Ir only freezes it 0.9.8, but completely crashes pcsx2 in r5130. These are the error logs from that revision:

Code:

Gif Unit - GS packet size exceeded VU memory size!
GSdx: out-of-memory, texturing temporarily disabled

I've changed various settings like VU/mVU, clamping, fixes, sw mode, etc. but no luck so far. If anyone knows of a working revision or settings please post it here

The other game is Simple 2000 Series Vol.55: The Catfight (SLPM-62494). In 0.9.8 and r5130 I get the following errors after the Tamsoft logo.

Normally I'd jut say OK the game's not playable and move on, but under current status is says Playable so I thought I'd bring it up.

UPDATE: Weird, I tested it again today and it no longer gives any TLB errors. It's still not playable though, the game can't seem to render 3D graphics.

GSdx: out-of-memory, texturing temporarily disabled

Large address aware patch it.

I ran the patcher and even increased my paging file but no change, I don't think it's a RAM issue. Any other ideas? Is this kind of error typically a dead end?

Did you try ZeroGS or ZZOgl yet?
Other than that, I think you've tried all options

ZeroGS can render about this much...

Trying to start story mode or view a model in the gallery however causes a crash. I guess it's just not meant to be

Seems to be a valid case of bad GIF emulation then.
