Time Crisis 2 & 3 do not boot (FW and VIF issues) #630

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
1. Launch either of these 2 games
2. Everything seems to load fine (no errors), but the gfx never 
initialize - stays at a black screen.

What version of PCSX2 are you using? On what operating system? Plugins?
Has happened on every single build of PCSX2 that I've tried including the 
latest betas (r2789). Using Win 7 - default plugins. 

Please provide any additional information below.
- Emulog attached of the game launching (if it helps).
- 'Crisis Zone' (Time Crisis 3 1/2 effectively) works flawlessly.

Using the "FWlinuz" plugin looks like they do boot, but hang on the very first 
Namco 
screen. Progress I guess..? :)

Thanks for killing our hosting space.
I guess this wasn't clear enough for you:

And no, we can't delete it now.

Easy. I deleted it, ok. When doing "replies" it just says there's a 10meg 
limit. 
Your notice is only displayed when entering NEW bugs. I thought a 1meg file 
would be 
ok, but I guess not. I know block dumps are helpful for squashing bugs so here

Yes the problem is even if you 'deleted' it, Google Code still keeps a copy that
normally counts towards our maximum space allowed.

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Yeah, I am curious about the problem with these titles. They do boot, but just 
hang on the first screen (logo). I assume it's quite an undertaking, unless it 
just hasn't really been looked at thoroughly. These are the only 2 games in my 
collection that remain unemulated. Let me know if there's anything more we can 
provide to assist with this! Thanks!

Firewire using games. They expect some reply from the FW hardware on boot.
We'll work on this stuff when someone feels like it, but it'll prolly take a 
while.

Original comment by ramapcsx2 on 9 Jul 2010 at 11:58

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Thanks for the reply. Now, does the FWlinuz plugin do that or only partially? 
Cause the game boots now with it - or at least it gets to the Namco screen (not 
sure if that counts). I assume it's probably waiting for more firewire feedback 
or something. Oh well, someday then!

Original comment by wespipe...@gmail.com on 10 Jul 2010 at 1:21

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Well, we are making progress. As of r3916, TC2 & TC3 can finally boot! To do 
this, you need the following config:

"Enable Fast CDVD" ticked
Bios >= 2.20
FWLinuz Firewire plugin (not available in svns unfortunately)

TC3 can play just fine - though it looks there's some fog issues. 

Unfortunately, TC2 boots no problem, but hangs on the loading screen when 
entering gameplay. The loading animation loops but it never enters the game. So 
hopefully, that'll be worked out somehow. 

Can we maybe take this off the "backburner" and into "open" issues so we can 
track it better and others can find it?

Yeah, sure. Incidentally, this change broke Harry Potter though.
Seems Jake opened another can of worms there :p

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
As of r4463, Time Crisis no longer needs FWLinuz to boot, but it does still 
require "Enable Fast CDVD" ticked and a bios >=2.20. It also still hangs on 
load screen when trying to enter gameplay.

Above comment was just for TC2 - and it's still unable to go ingame as of r4603.

Attached a verbose log that should help the investigation. Please let me know 
if there's anything more I can provide. 

Here's what happens when I try to enter gameplay:

Ok.....so Time Crisis 2 can now load in-game! This happened with the last few 
weeks is all I can tell at this point. 

BUUUUT, now Time Crisis 3 cannot boot (it hangs at the Namco logo like it used 
to a long time ago). Tried everything and can't get past it. 

Kinda funny how neither worked, and then one got working, and then the other 
got working, but now the first one stopped working. Ugh. :) Let me know what 
you need from me to help on getting BOTH of these games running and keeping it 
that way!

Current Status:

Time Crisis 2: Fully Playable with r4624 and above. 
Still requires:
"Enable Fast CDVD" ticked (else hang on 1st screen - the Namco logo)
Bios >= 2.20 (else black screen - no boot)

History:
r3916-r4623 = Hang on loading screen when entering gameplay
r3916 and below = Hang on launch

Time Crisis 3: Hangs on Namco screen with r4624 and above
Still requires:

Here's where the difference/problem begins. Looks like it now fails and starts 
trying to read sector 0 indefinetely. Whereas before it read the incrementing 
sectors properly.

Crap, might have spoken too soon there, Time Crisis 2 just crashed 
transitioning from Act 1 to Act 2. The gfx started getting slowly more and more 
corrupted and then the whole emu crashed as Act 2 began. 

Attached is the log, but nothing too suspicious there. But maybe a another read 
error like with it's brother TC3. Boy, these are some fussy games!!! :)

Been a couple months and this game broken by r4624 is still unable to get past 
the first screen. I've spent a lot of time investigating and documentning the 
emu status of these games. Can someone take a look at what happened? Thanks!

Are you saying something has changed from where things stood awhile ago 
(comment 19)?

Enabling that hack is neccessary period for those games, but TC3 still does not 
boot in recent revs with that.

tc3 is the big daddy, would be cool if we had more support for these lightgun

Again I am willing to donate some money to get these games working to motivate 
you guys.

How about adding the CDVD-hack to "Automatic Gamefixes" for these games?
Might be worth something.

Original comment by pg...@yahoo.se on 27 Aug 2011 at 4:51

Yeah, this seem more than just a speed hack. How many other hacks actually make 
games playable like this one does? This definetely should be moved to "Game 
fixes" and allow it to be set in the db.

How are you getting to the menu? I'm using r4942 and nothing has changed since 
my comment 19 - hangs on the logo screen at boot (NTSC). Hopefully the 
regression introduced in May which broke TC3 can be resolved enabling both of 
these fussy games to be playable once and for all.

Original comment by wespipe...@gmail.com on 20 Oct 2011 at 6:48

As of r4952, here's where we are at:

TC3: Playable (again)
--"Enable Fast CDVD" ticked or else game will hang entering gameplay.
--Bios >= 2.20 or hang at boot

TC2: Not Playable
--"Enable Fast CDVD" doesn't seem to make a difference anymore.
--Bios >= 2.20 or hang at boot

When entering gameplay, the game now hangs on the load screen like it used to 
(comment 10) with the following contantly looping in the console:
