Terry Pratchett's Discworld (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) // SMPC bug - Can't enter the game, no controller response #76

Closed Zet-sensei closed 5 months ago

Zet-sensei commented 5 months ago

When the game asked for the START button to be pressed, no response at all from a controller.

I tried multiple controllers types, disabling &enabling a second controller. No change at all.

Tested with a multi-region hacked Hi-Saturn BIOS & an original European BIOS, forced on "Europe" region for both on the core.

EDIT : Confirmed with Kuba-J on Discord, same result.

I've seen an old note on Mednafen development that could help us.

October 5, 2021:
    SS: Implemented a delay when the SMPC joystick read process is aborted due to time over or due to the Break bit being 1, per tests on a SS, and fixed
    timing granularity issues with the processing of the Break/Continue bits; fixes unresponsive input in "Discworld", and abort to CD player screen in the
    USA and Europe releases of "Primal Rage".
