Using the same phaste code, this game now only shows the first screen (as posted in the previous test), but no longer gets anywhere beyond that ;)

With this beta, you can browse all menus and view cars, however they suffer from 'GIANT TIRES SYNDROME (GTS)'. Game will crash on going into any race :(

Cars no longer suffer big wheel syndrome, but 2D in places is borked, ingame will hang with cpuException: Status.EXL = 1

Highlighted 'P.E.Op.S. SPU2' because using that will produce nice music / sound effects, but cause a crash on some menu selections.

and then loops in some kernel routines

REC crashes

20128c60 03e00008
20128c64 00000000
20265428 03e00008

Without patch, you will enconter:
ReadFIFO Unknown 10007010

Patch skips IPU, including background videos. Game will reach just prior to ingame, before closing emu.

Without patch, you will enconter:
ReadFIFO Unknown 10007010

Game will show background videos, but various screens that look fine with just the phaste patch will have blocky graphics (see lang select screen).

Game is a tad more unstable, but similiar results to just using a phaste patch.

Last 2 Shots demonstrate the results with nach's patch.

Conclusion:

SAQIB FIX IPU! :p

Just checked that it wasn't broken :eyemove:

Accidentially i got a clear video behind the 3D stuff, unfortunately i couldn't reproduce that with 5 more tries.

EDIT:
Forget what i wrote before.
DirectX for Managed Code Update (December 2004)
breaks the graphics if GSDX9 is used!

Legal screen before language select disapeared with latest betas.

When selecting time attack i-frame of menu video appears without my latest patch.
On the one hand the Midfield logo in foreground appears correctly, on the other hand it crashes there.

Other game modes crash as before on going ingame or occasionally on car select screen.
