Resolved: [Bug Report] Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil [NTSC-U]

[weirdbeardgame]

#PCSX2 version: any from 1.5.0 below.
#CPU options: IOP defaults - makes no change EE - interpreter can get a bit farther.
#Plugins latest GSDX opengl hardware and directx 11 hardware.
# Description: Certain levels like volkan city inferno will crash pcsx2 or freeze on a black screen or the now loading text. EE interpreter gets farther along then re compiler. 

The strangest thing is that pcsx2 in linux 1.4.0 doesn't crash when such levels are loaded but due to issues with pcsx2's audio engine this game can only render audio in windows because if the latency is set above 3 to maybe 4 ms this game will not render audio which is only set able in windows async Linux goes as low as 40 ms.

Yeah, we know about this one. It's a core issue with the DMA most likely.

why does it only work in linux?

[rama]

It's already being tracked on Github. Basically, the game can be "accidentally fixed" by not synchronizing SPU2.
It's not a fix though, just happens to bend DMA's in a way that makes them work.
