God Eater 2 version 1.4 - The game freeze if you bring NPC(s) to a mission

[KenGodEaterwiki]

This problem have been existed for a long time (I think). I did turn off the Fast Mem option and it's still the same. http://forums.ppsspp.org/showthread.php?tid=7350&pid=100350#pid100350 This might help a little bit more.

I'm asking this because God Eater 2 Rage Burst demo have come out and people that don't have PSV/PS4 are left behind...

Alright then...

You might have more luck getting someone to look at it by posting more actionable information, like, where to get the demo, how to install the upgrade, on what platforms it is a problem (all?), a savegame before the problem, etc.

[KenGodEaterwiki]

It happen on all platforms. This problem does not happen in the demo

Alright, I'll try explain things better. Go to Hibari, accept a mission, lunch the mission, when the loading is finish, the game freeze

[viktorhunter]

This is a already known issue and seems to happen because the memory allocation feature...

Anyway i will just post my log from the tutorial mission with the npc on my group, and its interesting that the blackscreen only happens after the monsters spawns.

*Note: Update 1.40 added a new feature to npcs were you can leveling them . Plus now you can change mission difficulty from 1-99. Seems that the interaction between these two new features break the game when trying to bring npc to the missions on the ppsspp. Anyway you can play the entire game without npc's whithout a single error or crash.

Probably, related or duplicate with #8075 ?

[anr2me]

Based on your logs: https://gist.github.com/nassau-tk/29ccd1de638f3730b0b9e83f735aad56

May be it's related to the missing EDAT file?

I also wondered why it failed to allocate 8192 bytes of memory, that's quite a small size. 38:27:436 Back E[SCEKERNEL]: util\blockallocator.cpp:141 Block Allocator (08800000-0a000000) failed to allocate 8192 (00002000) bytes of contiguous memory May be something is draining up all PSP's memory without freeing it?

Edit: If i put breakpint at blockallocator.cpp:141, the first "Out of memory" occurrence during AllocAligned(0x00100000, 0x00000100, 0x00000100, false, "mem") is during SysMemUserForUser_FE707FDF with currentMIPS->pc = 0x0882b178 and hleCurrentThreadName = "Back"

So many "mem" tag O.o

PS: Tested to return error code during allocation of "mem" doesn't seems to have any effect to the game (assuming it's some kind of tricks to prevent it from running properly on emulators) and still getting invalid address when entering mission door.

[anr2me]

During Loading scene (The one with running wolf on bottom right corner) the game will free these "mem" blocks (especially the one with 0x00100000 size) and then allocate a new one, along with ELF blocks.

This is memory block list before 6x "mem" of size 0x00100000 (located after ELF/layout) are being freed.

I think this 6th "mem" supposed to be allocated at 09389800

May be we should allocate from Top for internal memory used for system/firmware library? to prevent it from scattered and causing fragmentation Or may be using kernelMemory instead?

Edit: That "netpool" seems to be from Bottom :(

After moving "netpool" to Top, the 6th "mem" allocation is still not enough for a contiguous block :(

Btw, i wished this kind of Memory Block List that contains their Start address and Tag name could be listed in Memory Viewer

[unknownbrackets]

There are actually tests for the Utility allocations, which I'm pretty sure do hit user memory. But maybe we get some of the top/bottom wrong.

Some time ago, I did some JpscpTrace of GEB (not GE2) to compare some of the allocations to get it more accurate. It was fruitful but painfully slow. That's how I figured out the UserSbrk stuff.

We should really improve the memory viewer...

It's been years and the version 1.40 of the game is still not playable.

I know that it's not your priority and it was released on other platforms as well but hoping you guys fix it someday.

If it helps, this is in now, it should make it easier to understand where this RAM is being used. There's no "zoom out" though, which is a thing I was thinking about how to implement.

Anyway, it might be a really good idea to get a RAM dump from a real PSP at the start menu, even, and compare to a RAM dump from PPSSPP in the same place. It's a bit hard and might need to be complimented with a JpcspTrace to log allocations. Finding the differences is probably the path to fixing this.

For example, the netpool allocations were generally validated on a PSP, but maybe top/bottom isn't right or maybe it's not actually one solid allocation.
