Compatibility List reports

[Rinnegatamante]

Report here your tests so i can add them to the official repository, specify:

• Full name of the game tested

• Title ID

• Playable / Bugs / Etc

• Type of Dump (Retail Game, Vitamin, MaiDump) [Specify maiDump load mode and Vitamin version]

• If the game supports hardware acceleration

• Game resolution

NOTE: Reports MUST refer to tests run WITHOUT audio streaming enabled and with Asynchronous streaming. Other plugins allocating memory in any possible way must not be run together with VITA2PC (eg. Better Amphetamine due to polling thread creation).

If you experience a game crash, try to run this plugin instead of the original one: VITA2PC_lowmem.zip. If it solved the issue, let me know in the report

Little Big Planet PCSF00021 Crashes Retail/Cartridge No hardware acceleration Downscaled - 480x272

[damteenagers]

Uncharted: Golden Abyss PSCF00001 Crashes when loading menu/ -shows amulet in the corner of the screen then crashes Retail/Cartridge No hardware acceleration?/ -couldn't open menu because of lack of time Downscaled - 480x272

[damteenagers]

Wipeout: 2048 PCSF0007 Crashes when loading menu/ -starts loading and crashes before menu/ -able to load the streamer and stream for a few seconds before crashing/ -if the stream isn't started with the plugin still enabled it crashes after the splashscreen. Retail/Cartridge No hardware acceleration Downscaled - 480x272

[damteenagers]

Call of Duty Blackops: Declassified PCSB00213 Kinda works/ -stuttering ingame/ -freezes more when audio is disabled or frameskip set higher than 1/ -jerky camera movement Retail/Cartridge No hardware acceleration Downscaled - 480x272

[damteenagers]

Surprisingly, I think it maybe a problem with how audio was implemented. Earlier releases of RinCheatStreamer I was able to play some of these games with crashes albeit a bit slow or unplayable; either that or the current version has problems playing Retail/cartridge games because I have tested homebrew like vitashell and Retroarch, they seemed to stream just fine.

[Rinnegatamante]

So, first of all, tests must be run with async streaming (so frameskip is not relevant). Audio can be disabled from config menu, once disabled, it's like if audio code doesn't exist at all on both PC and VITA sides.

Wipeout 2048 is supported, has been tested by @gnmmarechal in a private build. Stream must be ideally started at main menu, several games will crash or freeze if the stream is started too early due to huge loading on game boots. It could be related to this.

For the stuttering stuffs, tests must be run without audio. Compatibility list refer to tests un without audio since such feature is highly experimental. (I should have mentioned this on the issue description probably, going to add it).

[Rinnegatamante]

For the crashes, specify if the crash happens on splashboot logo or after it (so during a black screen). This could help identify a possible title related patch.

[damteenagers]

All of them after their boot sequence/splash screen.

[Rinnegatamante]

I've added a modded version on first issue post that uses a limited mempool. (Several crashing games got fixed with this). Let me know if it solves issues with some of your games :)

[damteenagers]

Uncharted Golden Abyss PCSB00001 OkieDoke, With the low memory version I get spammed with c1-xxxx-xxx errors though the game continues to work regardless and its working great with audio streaming and with the downscaler. The errors seemed to stop once I was in game. 20-ish fps steaming, pretty good.

[Rinnegatamante]

That's kinda interesting about the errors, are they random in the XXXX or is always the same error being spammed?

[damteenagers]

Same error, (C2-12828-1)

[damteenagers]

An idea, perhabs its possible for you to implement a low memory mode. For example, hold the R button while loading a game.

[Rinnegatamante]

According to Internet, it seems to be related to savedata corruption. I suggest to start the stream after game loading to not get something strange to happen.

[Rinnegatamante]

Related to Uncharted, does it support hw accel?

[damteenagers]

I get the error regardless whether I have started the stream or not. But the game continues to work in the background. Apparently It does not support hardware acceleration.

[damteenagers]

As mentioned before, after the spamming everything works fine including streaming.

[damteenagers]

17-18fps in game with the downscaler.

[damteenagers]

Tested another game, little big planet (PSCF00021) same error as uncharted but fails to boot into the game with the plugin enabled (low memory version).

[damteenagers]

Black ops also got the same error, though Wipeout: 2048 didn't.

[damteenagers]

Wipeout worked flawelessly. Supports hardware acceleration, with quality on low it streams at 16-22 fps.

Nidhogg PCSB00679 Works, with heavy stuttering/black bars around the bottom half of the screen. Not really playable. MaiDump Yes 960x544 downscaled

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number PCSB00511 Technically works, but realistically the delay/framerate make it difficult to play. Retail download No 960x544 downscaled

Shovel Knight PCSB00743 Fully playable. Retail Download Yes 960x544 downscaled

Atelier Escha & Logy Plus PCSB00906 Fully playable. Though I've heard overclocking causes weird savedata corruption with this series. Vitamin No 960x544 downscaled

[damteenagers]

Heh, adrenaline sorta works. You have to open the adrenaline menu to use the vita2pc plugin and it streams well smooth. The problem it has is the screen scaling either adrenaline has a patch to work correctly with this plugin or vice versa.

UPDATE As long as your not using the original filter on the adrenaline menu, it scales correctly (Advanced AA) though the framerate dips from high 50's to mid 20's. https://twitter.com/Dam_Teenagers/status/905131038988480512

All 3 games are not playable (on PC, on vita constant 30fps) with downscaling disabled.

[Rinnegatamante]

@spreggie and @TheRadziu : please use Fraps to get real framerate. If it stick around 20-24 is considered fully playable atm in the compatibility list. Lower values are considered playable but choppy.

@spreggie Try the lowmem version for PERSONA 4.

[TheRadziu]

please use Fraps to get real framerate. If it stick around 20-24 is considered fully playable atm in the compatibility list. Lower values are considered playable but choppy.

I'm using Action for that, I consider it to be just as reliable.~~Although I didn't notice you mentioning that we have to test stuff without audio enabled and with overclock plugins disabled. Oclock vita has to be disabled as a plugin or it is enough just not to change clocks at all after game is started? Anyway I'll redo the tests and edit my previous message if anything changes.~~ Same results with oclock commented out in config and disabled audio

Just checked SK:EV since its listed as the game with HW acceleration, It can be streamed in full resolution and audio with 25-28fps and its almost perfect, can all games be forced to use HW acceleration or is this at least planned to implement?

[Rinnegatamante]

HW Acceleration is related to how much VRAM game uses. If it doesn't have enough free VRAM, it's simply impossible to have it.

[Rinnegatamante]

@TheSacredPixel do your reports have been made with audio streaming disabled? It's kinda strange to have stuttering with an hw accelerated title.

[kaimoe]

@Rinnegatamante I tried again just now, it isn't so much stuttering as, I guess, screen tearing or something. Parts of the image lag behind but the overall screen moves fine. I guess I might've had audio on for the first couple games I tried.

[XandridFire]

Freedom Wars PCSA00174 Not Playable/Give a black screen upon starting so couldn't start the stream Maidump Not Sure Couldn't start the Stream

Note: As soon as I started the game, Instant black screen, Tried with the Lowmem version, I got further, but was stuck on a loading loop. When I disable the plugin the game works

[TheRadziu]

Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus PCSB00601 Playable MaiDump Hardware acceleration available Downscaled - 480x272 Notes: Without downscaling on intro movie fraps says its 11 fps and yet its smooth (like solid 30), Gameplay very choppy, still 11 fps. With downscaling intro movie is still smooth but fraps says its 19-20 fps. Gameplay: 20-22fps, looks smooth enough.

World OF Final Fantasy PCSE00880 Not playable/Crashes Maidump Dunno Dunno

[TheRadziu]

Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls PCSE00692 Not Playable Mai Dump Hardware acceleration: N/A Downscaled - N/A Notes: Crashes instantly on startup with error C2-12828-1. Same with lowmem. No surprise here, this game crashes with ANY plugin enabled.

[XandridFire]

FIFA 15 PCSE00483 Playable-ish, it's very chopping when playing a match, but gets good frames when on a 1 on 1 traninig Maidump No hardware acceleration 950x544

Note: This test was without sound. With sound the game is pretty choppy all around

[Rinnegatamante]

@XandridFire I personally tested Freedom Wars (infact it's in the compatibility list) and it worked fine. You're probably running some other plugin using memory or you're using some bad maidump load mode.

For World of Final Fantasy, try the lowmem plugin.

[Rinnegatamante]

@TheRadziu when you get the stream to freeze (eg. Metal Slug 3) try to lower video quality. This could help solve the issue.

[Crashdummyy]

Legend of Heroes - Trails of Cold Steel PCSE00786 Maidump Mode 5 Playable: with low settings ( though no audio ) Hardware Acceleration: Enabled Resolution: 960x554

[ajseavey]

Ciel Nosurge: Offline PCSG00454 Playable: Worked quite well in Async mode with Downscaler on and High Quality. Audio Streaming works. Other modes tend to choke with screen capture failing on more complex screens. Slightly slows down certain menus opening and such, but not majorly. Type: Retail Cart Hardware Acceleration: Enabled Resolution 960x544

[lkprod3]

Persona 4 Golden PCSE00120 Crashes on startup (even with lowmem) Type: Retail digital game

[TheRadziu]

@TheRadziu when you get the stream to freeze (eg. Metal Slug 3) try to lower video quality. This could help solve the issue.

Yes, setting to low improved fps a bit(12fps without downscale) and its not freezing anymore btw you didnt add couple of reports to the list, is there any reason or just missed them?

And here is next report: *GalGun Double Peace** PCSE00881 Playable MaiDump No hardware acceleration Downscaled - 480x272 Notes:17-19fps

[lkprod3]

Persona 4: Dancing All Night PCSE00764 Fully playable (although the input delay of course makes playing a rhythm game a bit hard) Type: Retail Digital game Supports Hardware Acceleration Resolution: 960x544 (downscaled to 480x272)

[Rinnegatamante]

@WreckingBerserker that's probably an issue in SDL or openGL if it happens on every single game. There's an issue opened about this here: https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/VITA2PC/issues/13

[HarutoraRen]

@Rinnegatamante can u send me your config.txt for freedom wars? i tried everything but my FW always goes with a black screen and that C-128-228 something. you can send it here chunseiker@gmail.com and also i played god eater games both resu and rage burst i noticed that theres no IP address everytime i press L+Select

[Rinnegatamante]

@HarutoraRen When you don't get the IP address it could be a plugin memory corruption issue. I noticed it too with Final Fantasy X sporadically. To solve the issue i just had to restart my console. You can try to start the plugin on a game that shows the IP and use it even in God Eater (even if it doesn't show).

As for Freedom Wars, it's not a config.txt issue, it's probably related to what dump you used. I used a Vitamin 2.0 dump personally. Hopefully a proper dumper will be released in the near future and we can get rid of both Vitamin and maiDump finally.

[NotCol]

Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 PCSE00004 Playable (around 20fps) Retail digital game Supports hardware acceleration 960x544

[HarutoraRen]

@Rinnegatamante ah i see, then which one do you prefer on type of dump vitamin or maidump? i would like to help on this project as well since i got alot of games to try i guess i can give up now on FW since it is already on the list EDIT: what should i do with the games without IP addresses? download a new dump? or just try and insert my IP? and also does the PC specs affects the vita2pc performance on streaming?

[HarutoraRen]

Game: Caligual Effect (English Patched) PCSG00687 Maidump Playable but suffers on low FPS not exceeding 20 Sounds only on the vita, PC side with yes sounds is on loading save data but the sound on vita was already in game resolution 960x544

Game: Dragon Quest Builders PCSE00912 Vitamin Not playable Downscaler enabled: streaming will start but freezes Downscaler disabled: streaming will start but PC client not responding

EDIT: Changing Downscaler ingame started at enabled then change to disabled (or started with disabled then enabled) the game will freeze and when quitting the game, the vita itself will lag or freezes

[TheRadziu]

@HarutoraRen

EDIT: what should i do with the games without IP addresses? download a new dump? or just try and insert my IP?

I would try to input vita's ip anyway to see if it even works. Also avoid multiposts, better to edit one message with next results until rin sees it/somebody else posts something

[HarutoraRen]

@TheRadziu i see sorry mate im using my phone and tapping that edit button definitely takes time since my country has crappy internet speed, ill just edit my entry next time

Game: God Eater 2 Rage Burst PCSB00875 my first try (downcscale enabled) works but the framerate drops rapidly as i move around the lobby and the pc client stops responding so i guess not playable second try (downscale disabled) i got the window of the pc client but black screen sound works fine, both vita and pc produces sounds tho the PC sound lags behind Vitamin

Game: Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme vs Force PCSH00195 Downscaler Disabled Streaming works but not playable due to FPS drops, both have sounds PC and Vita while streaming the game on vita lags resolution 480x720

Game: Plants vs Zombies (yeah i still play this game for a change of pace lol) PCSE00064 Downscaler Enabled Playable but FPS drop continues as the zombies/plants grew in number Downscaler Disabled Only proceeds on the loading but stops on playing Maidump resolution 960x544-480x720
