Quake III Arena PAL hangs after intro video #455

Open LaZar00 opened 5 years ago

LaZar00 commented 5 years ago

I'm trying to run Quake III Arena PAL version (spanish language selected in BIOS). It boots well, presents the 50/60hz selector, I can see the intro video (click A or Return or nothing to jump videos and intros), then presents the first image of Quake III, and after that nothing. It does not presents the VMU selection for the first time. Using latest build of 23/12/2018 downloaded by retroarch updater.

Using Reicast for Retroarch in Windows 10 x64 Build 1803.

More things: Testing Q3A US version works perfect. Q3A PAL hangs after intro video/post image/before VMU selection.

I have tried older versions of the core and this problem persists (at least back to 2/11/2018)

So the US version of Q3A is fully playable? but the PAL version hangs after the intro??

The US version I tested until gameplay, and it works. I have not tested fully tough, but I have not seen any problems. The PAL version hangs after the image that appears after the intro, and before the texts that appears when checking the VMU units . I've seen problems similar in other PAL versions like "Who wants to be a Millionaire", where it hangs/stops after the Dreamcast logo/boot and SEGA announcement (when booting game). But I think that this is another issue.
