During the intro sequence, most effects are not displayed, and the following error op_ot_draw() ... timeout, floods the console.

Goes through to the main menu, but select 'new game' and it hangs on the first intro video occasionally showing 'Sub Text' for the video with the following error:

*PCSX2*: warning v->size != size

Requires this patch to get into the intro:

Same issues as above, though intro, and logo are no longer displayed However GSdx and GSsoft both now display the openning move...kind of....high PPF count during it (I assume due to overlayed 'sub text'). Shots taken with GSsoft, however GSdx displays the same. (People who have played the game will recognise it )

Game will randomly 'freeze' in a battle. By freeze, the characters just stand there, the ATB bar will not fill, yet camera etc still moves around...

Same terrain holes bug as FFX.

Menus and all 2D are WAY faster, but lacking effects, and start screen is missing parts. Game can hang on loading a game wtih a DVDread 0 bug again. (So ****ing often, that I didn't get any shots this time around )

Using GSsoft, you can recognise some of the video. GSdx renders poop. Game always locks up (if skipping video) on DVDread 0.

If I skip videos / voice init / sound init I can get ingame, where it will go into a perminent loop (3D graphics move, but it never progresses). Nice holey syndrome

Characters are solid again. Thanks to some memcard saves I am able to get ingame even further. But (spu related?) DVDread 0 (normally with some 'wav' information in between reads) stops most areas loading, or will put the game into a perminant loop (could it be due to the patch....but patch is needed to even get this far).

Videos can be skipped thankfully, but obviously are not working.

Battles most of the time can't be completed due to looping (it's like the game is still running, but just forgets to do the next thing, eg animations etc still run, just ATB bars etc never fill).

Terrain has massive holes in it.

So all in all, not the best, but hey these saves prove that ingame is working-ish. Without saves, you can skip the first intro video, and enter the first battle, but due to that 'loop' bug, you will never get past it.

Patch still needed (note that FFX no longer needs SKIP VOICE / SOUND INIT, but FFX-2 still needs it to even display logo). Characters are solid, game / areas will always load now

Still encountering DVDread: 0 , and game will still randomly enter a loop during the first battle. If loading from a save, gameplay is fine, but again battles will loop.

Terrain as holey as ever.
