I would guess playing the complete game in 1.4 would be best.

Though I didnt't try to replicate my problem in 1.4, I know that I didn't have a problem in the dream scene when using 1.4. Also the bug must have come in between version 1.2 and 1.5, so it's possible 1.4 also plays correct and the start of this thread is 4 februari. Nobody encountered it before and now I encounter it and several other people too.

Maybe somebody who still has the problem should try playing from your last savestate from and check if it fixes it.

I've tried everything by this point...went to Software mode ,no luck. Turned off sound completely, no luck. I simply can't figure this out, and I've tried to get through it at least 5 times.


Id, have any luck with the state?

I have encountered a new problem in Xenogears. Everyone seems to have serious issues when it comes to the save games. I just received Lucifersam's savestate, and alothough I ain't able to save over an old memcard save, I realized that this was not teh problem. I mean how can it be. It'll probably save time when sending it to other people, but I don't think it will fix the problem.
 
Lucifersam. I played your savestate, and I made it up to teh dreamsequence. I realized that the game slowed down significantly, but the framerate according to the plugin did not drop. When I turned off the FPS limitation option, the game runs slightly faster but eventually still freezes at the same point. What happens at this point is that the game is not trying to read the CD. I have tried to download some CD plugins and check whether these will work. I still don't think they will, because eventually evertything runs off the epsxe core.

I have one question for you though. WHat operating system are U using. If 98 I might eb able to help you. I'm using XP at the moment though so that causes a problem for me. If 98 notify me.

Strange, mine 1.4 hang on the dream scene just like LuciferSam's but when I use 1.2 it is normal, no speed down, no hang. :confused:

I'm using Windows 2000, actually. That was one reason I was *also* trying to generate a saved game (something that pointedly wasn't working), as then I could try to get past that scene on some other emu. Sadly, it seems like I have NO options...:-(

So no luck? It froze for you too?

ive somehow been able to save onto a memory card now. i previously havent been able to. all i did was first copy a xenogears save file from the second card slot to the first card slot, then saved my game over on top of the save file. from now on ive been able to save! hope this helps others out. ive been able to get past the dream sequence by using epsxe 1.2 as well. then switching back over to 1.5. It doesnt seem like a gpu problem, so dont bother messing with all the settings. later

Hum, may be this is the reason. As far as I remember, I start playing the game in vgs then switch to epsxe 1.4 while continue using the same vgs save file. I never have any save problem, although I still use save state a lot with the game

So I seem to be presented with three options:

a) Switch back to 1.2 to get past that part. HOwever, I notably can't save to memory cards...how have people gotten them to start working? (I have a save state RIGHT at the savepoint before this sequence occurs)

b) Futz with the settings until it works, which seems to be a lost-cause.

c) Wait until the next version and hope it's fixed (beh).


Any ideas?

-D

PS: Id, thank you very much for the effort!
