Hello Fellas,
I have a Problem with God of War 2 PAL Version. The Game runs nearly perfect on my System ( even if its now 7 Years old! Wink ) . But there is this one Bug with the Blade of Athena which crashes my Game Loss Sad!!! When i make the Upgrade to Level three Blades, they disappear completly and logically its not possible to finish the hole Game with this Bug! I think i tried everything, and every Option on the PSCX2 Emu but it dosnt help. Also i tried other Version and Bios Files!!! I am despairing!!! I cant unterstand it, the rest of the Game as i said works near perfectly. So for additional Information my Specs are:
-PCSX2 Version 1.5 and 1.4
-God of War 2 PAL Iso, ( Also Version of Original God of War Disc Platinum, around 8GBs large)
-Bios File Europe 2.00

My PC:
-AMD Phenom 1055T, six Core at 2.8-3GHZ
-8GB RAM
-AMD Radeon 6790 with 1GB Ram

As i said its not the newest System but i think its still enough for it, also its possible for me to play any other Game on Emu without problems and good FPS rates!
Also iam using PCSX2 since few Years, and i learned much about it! As i remember a few years ago, i played God of War without any problems completly till the end, but i forgot which Version of PCSX2 it was???
Is there any older Version which is better for the Game???

PLEASE, if there is anybody who can help me to solve this problem, I would be very glad and grateful!!!

Best Regards,
BAD_boy
Please post the contents of the emulog.txt file after the problem occurs. The file can be found in "My Documents\PCSX2\logs" for the installer version or in "PCSX2\logs" for the portable/binary version.
OK, thank you for your Answer! Wink

MTVU speedhack is enabled, saved states may not be stable
tried loading from memcard instead of savestate ?
tried disabling all speedhacks ?
Yes, i tried probably any config with PCSX2, but its not possible to load from memcard, this is a another Problem i have, but its not
so important for me till yet, because i use the savestate option!
I dont know what to do anymore?! Do you think a older Version of PCSX2 can help to solve the problem? Or can it be that the Graphiccard driver is the reason for it???
Do you know if the NTSC Version has the same problem???
If you need some more detailed Informations of my Config, just ask for it! Wink
Quote:but its not possible to load from memcard
why ?
Quote:Do you know if the NTSC Version has the same problem???
Don't bother buying the NTSC version if you own the PAL one.
Both wok perfectly.
I dont know why it dosnt work with the memcard, but as i read on many other sites its a known Problem with God of War?! Lets say it on this way, the first 5 or 6 original states for saving working, but then when i try to save later in Game it just freezes at the Omega Icon Screen. Till this point its not a Problem to load but the saving later in the Game is the Problem! Also i saw after my main problem with the Upgrade of the Athena Blades, that many Quick Time events doesnt working?!
What could be the Problem???

probably this :
emulog you provided Wrote:MTVU speedhack is enabled, saved states may not be stable

I will try it again with your Tips. What is your prefered Config for the Game? Does it mean that you dont have any Bugs??? Or can it be that my PC config is not compatible for the emu or the Game? Sorry for my English, its not so good Wink

PS: I think that the MTVU hack has only a impact to the save state Option of the emu and not for the original saving of the Game! I dont know if i wrote it right, the Problem is that i cant save later in the Game with the original PS2 Option for saving, i dont mean the savestate Option of the emu.
IIRC, i didn't have any problem with this game.
but i didn't use savestates, i only used the memcards
