Hello, I just created an account simply to diagnose this problem, as I love SOCOM, and I've noticed that there have been multiple threads about SOCOM I. I've tried what they have tried, but to no avail.
When using the GSdx plugin (when using pcsx2 0.9.8), I can boot fine, but the emulation freezes with the "spr mfifo write outside mfifo area" error spammed to the console. I've read about this before, and also how it may have been fixed O.o, so I'm not sure why that happens. I did however get a step further: If I use the absolute latest auto-build (as of today) and use the zerogs plugin, I can boot the game, but it will freeze trying to load the main menu screen (it will hang at the splash screen with the squad carrying bad ass guns).
If it helps, these are the last things I see in the console before the apparent complete lockup:
If anyone could help me, I'd highly appreciate it ^.^.
*EDIT x2* The ZeroGS is output is simply a message that occurs when switching window focus. The error above still stands, and SOCOM is still dead :\
