I thought I'd post here again, since apparently I broke a rule in the other topic.

So anyway, I'm playing Ehrgeiz on an iso, and I can't seem to get it working. It loads and all, but I just get a black screen, and it aint cool. :/ I think it locks up after a few seconds, though. I minimize, and it bring it back up, and the black part won't show up, just the outlining with a missing screen in the middle. However, when I hit esc it responds, and closes to the original screen.

Those are my video plugins, I don't think sound is relevant to the problem. I tried the actual CD, it won't even read into my CD-ROM, so that isn't an option. :/

I think I know your problem. You might need to install aspi drivers. 90% of the time a black screen comes from a incorrect cdvd plugin. Your game is probably not even loading. I suggest installing some aspi drivers to fix the problem or to change your cdvd plugin.

 

[garyv]

? What's the cdvd plugin? I'm not using a CD-ROM plugin. As I said, the CD won't even read on my computer, probably too scratched up. If it's a different plugin, please explain, I've never worked with ASPI drivers before.

you dont need ASPI if you are running off an ISO.

anyway, as from your other thread, you downloaded this ISO. that could be the main reason it doesnt work, and besides, ngemu doesnt provide support nor endorse ROMs

 

[garyv]

Well then. I'll just say I didn't download it. :/ But I wanna plaaaaay it. ._______.

It's not only that we don't support piracy (wich is reason enough in itself to close this thread too, so please quit telling that), but the iso you downloaded might be corrupt, incorrectly done, ripped, etc. If so, nothing can fix it, so you'll be losing your time and ours.

Do it the legal way: buy the game. Or if you really own it, and it's your cd drive the culprit, iso it on a friends house, copy the iso to a cd (not burn it, copy it as a file), and copy then the iso file to your hard drive.

 

[garyv]

I've tried that, Chan. It won't read in my CD-ROM or my Granny's. I don't know what else to do! ._.

 

[garyv]

Ok, I bought the game again earlier today, and it runs fine as a CD-ROM! Thing is.. When I try to play the Arcade mode, the shiat freezes on the ' Now Loading ' portion. :/ Was this covered previously?


Edit: Sorry about the double post.

 

[hushypushy]

try Peops CD plugin, in IOCTL mode.
