Hello all,
I am trying out PCSX2 for the first time and I have to say 'WOW - great work!'
I have a problem though when playing FFX and it seems to be a well known one. First I suffered from the 'Auron look' bug but I got past that by dowloading a saved game after that scene. Then the same problem happened again on the boat to Kilika when Sin attacks.
I tried soo many configurations to get past that point that you probably wouldn't believe it, I also tried 3 different PCSX2-versions (0.9.4, 0.9.5 beta and 0.96 (the one I started with)). I tried configurations posted elsewehere but nothing helped.
I tried all Graphics plugins, all sound plugins and all CDDVD plugins, I also tried playing from DVD (original) directly and from an .iso-file.
Finally when trying on 0.9.5 I stumbled upon some interesting console output and I was wondering if that output might give someone here some clue as to what the problem behind that bug might be.
During gameplay I constantly see messages in the console of the following format:
DvdRead: Reading Sector xxxxx(x Blocks of Size 2064) at Speed=4x
But right before that freeze bug on the boat to Kilika happens (I haven't checked if this is also the case with the Auron look bug) I get a different console output
CdRead: Reading Sector 2198921(1 Blocks of Size 2048) at Speed=2x
Is it normal that the program does a CdRead instead of a DvdRead at that point?
btw. my version of the game is SCES 50492
Any help or answers would be appreciated.
