Hi.
About r3972:
Instead of SCED_52436 the GameIndex.dbf has SCES-52436 as Serial for
"PlayStation2 UK demo 7-2004". I don't know if this makes any difference.

they also need the game id to the game (ie; SLES-54569, SLUS-21890) just the 
game and region can't help them since there is no way for the emulator to look 
it up.

few more updates including the ones by stakado and krudeme.

@konajona:
Could you confirm if Primal NTSC-U still needs patches? PAL one doesn't seem to.

Primal PAL UK\Scandinavia can now be runed without patch (r4054-emucr).
It still requires more computerpower than I have to be played nicely though.

Original comment by pg...@yahoo.se on 25 Nov 2010 at 8:20

i confirm that primal ntsc now works without patch..but very slow ....like 
headhunter and 24 the game

Original comment by serban.a...@gmail.com on 25 Nov 2010 at 9:26

Yea primal ntsc doesn't seem to need the patch anymore, I tested a few of the 
loading screens where it would usually lockup and so far so good.

Ok, updated it a little more then.

How about having official cheats in GameIndex.dbf?

---------------------------------------------
Serial = SLES-52187
Name   = Baldur's Gate - Dark Alliance 2
Region = PAL-Unk
Compat = 4
// Official cheat 1: warp & invunerablilty menu
//  L1 + R1 + Triangle + Square + Circle + Cross + Start
// Official cheat 2: up\down to Level 10, 500000 gold & 45 skill points
//  L1 + R1 + Triangle + Square + Circle + Cross + L2
---------------------------------------------

Furthermore I suggest you change the "Compat" to 3,
since I for one can't get into the game; it jams either on intro or on menu.
The same is true for "SLES-50672" - "Baldur's Gate - Dark Alliance",
which in some previous revisions did get into the game; a regression?

The games never worked, nor has any game which uses the dark alliance engine 
(Fallout brotherhood of steel, champions of Norrath etc). In all of them you 
get split screen issues (only half of the screen displayed) and freezes during 
videos.

Original comment by jfre1...@gmail.com on 26 Nov 2010 at 10:22

[GoogleCodeExporter]

IF it's the same as justice league heroes, the videos works with EE timing hack 
and half screen works with software renderer in GSdx, but again only if it's 
the same problem and then it should still be ingame :p

Original comment by shadowladyngemu@gmail.com on 26 Nov 2010 at 10:48

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hit start fast enough to skip the fmv and you get ingame in Baldurs Gate Dark 
Alliance.

Updates, re-arranged games that were not sorted by serial, corrected some 
typos, removed unneeded entries... etc.

EE timing hack is also required for FF10 video to play properly (in addition to 
FFX video hack), which may be better to be added to gameindex

Original comment by weimingzhi on 27 Jan 2011 at 7:57

[GoogleCodeExporter]

FFX is kinda special. We're looking into it separately for the next release.

Original comment by ramapcsx2 on 27 Jan 2011 at 11:45

[GoogleCodeExporter]

PCSX2 can't find GameIndex.dbf when used in portable mode if a new version 
of PCSX2 with a new name and\or a new location is used.
It displayes an old path, and doesn't check the folder 
in which PCSX2 it self is located.
This is a problem (for me) on r4586 (EMUCR).
I can't find a way to alter the search path i the PCSX2 configuration
or in the inis files.
Any comments?

Original comment by pg...@yahoo.se on 24 Apr 2011 at 9:16

Had the same problem... Win7 64-bit ... (probably other Windows versions)
Found it - the path is in registry - HKCU\SOFTWARE\PCSX2 ...
Hope this helps ...

By removing the invalid keys it works, thanks.
This is clearly a bug though.

Small update:

Serial = SLES-51818
Name   = Final Fantasy X-2
Region = PAL-Unk

It's the Italian version, so PAL-I.

In addition:

Serial = SLES-54087
Name   = Suikoden V
Region = PAL-Unk

The game is multi 5, i have this code on the Italian version, but should be 
PAL-M5. And the game is fully playable, some garbage on screen in hardware 3x 
settings, but I started and ended the game with PCSX2 without problems, apart 1 
crash, not reproducible. So it should be Compat = 5

Original comment by lkm...@gmail.com on 15 Aug 2011 at 4:47

[GoogleCodeExporter]

If PAL-M5 is the regioncode for discs that supoorts (at least) english, french, 
german, spanish and italian,
 then it's resonable to assume that these discs are PAL-M5:
  SLES-52384
  SLES-53825
Does it make any difference?

"lkm...@gmail", about SLES-51818:
 If you have this disc, temporary remove the memcards folder and launch the game.
 If a menu shows up asking you to choose between english, french, german, spanish or italian,
  then it's resonable to assume that the region is PAL-M5, not PAL-I.

Suffer well.

Original comment by pg...@yahoo.se on 15 Aug 2011 at 10:00

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It is MULTI-5, i wrote should because I don't know if it has been released in 
other nations with another code, but the disc itself is surely multi5, on 
starting there's always the language selection screen :)

"nash...@hotmail.com":
According to sonyindex.com "SLES-53357" == "Colosseum - Road to Freedom":
 http://sonyindex.com/Pages/SLES-53357.htm.
However, according to all other websites "SLES-53357" == "21 Card Games".
Do you have this disc yourself?
