Hi, first of all, I want to apologize myself for the errors that I'll make but english is not my primary language.

I have a problem with Shiritsu Justice Gakuen : Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2 aka Rival School 2. When I try to run the game, the introduction movie have some green flash to the right part of the screen then, when I'm at the character select, the colors of the sprites seems to be inverted. And when I select my character, the loading screen appears then, when the battle should be starting, I have an error saying "opcode xx UNK..." where xx is a number who changes when I change the configuration of the texture in the video plugin option.

The game is an bin image. I've tried to run it with 1.5.2 and 1.6 (with Eternal SPU 1.41) and have the same problem on both. Here is my plugin configuration:

Plugin: Pete's OpenGL Driver 1.1.75
Author: Pete Bernert
Card vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
GFX card: GeForce4 MX 440/AGP/SSE2/3DNOW!

Resolution/Color:
- 640x480 Window mode
[32 Bit]- Keep psx aspect ratio: off

Textures:
- R8G8B8A8
- Filtering: 5
- Hi-Res textures: 2
- VRam size: 64 MBytes

Framerate:
- FPS limitation: on
- Frame skipping: off
- FPS limit: Auto

Compatibility:
- Offscreen drawing: 3
- Framebuffer texture: 2
- Framebuffer access: 4
- Alpha multipass: on
- Mask bit: on
- Advanced blending: on

Misc:
- Scanlines: off
- Line mode: off
- Unfiltered FB: off
- 15 bit FB: off
- Dithering: off
- Screen smoothing: off
- Screen cushion: off
- Game fixes: off [00000000]

And here is my hardware configuration:

Athlon64 3000 on an ASUS K8N-E Deluxe
512 DDR 3200
GeForce 4 MX440

And I have DirectX 9. I think the game should be working because I've seen screenshots of it in the forum and I have some other games which are working fine (Xenogears (NTSC-US), Front Mission 3 (PAL), Tenchu (NTSC-JAP), Tenchu 2: Birth of the Stealth Assassins (PAL) and Hokuto no Ken: Seiki Matsu Kyuueishu Densetsu (NTSC-JAP)).

So, if anyone can help me, I would be really happy, this game is great on psx but it would be even greater in 1024*768 with texture enhancement ^^.

Thank you in advance.

try turning off filtering and hi res textures altogether.

I've just tried this and nothing change except the error message (again an "Opcode xx UNK").

Here is a screenshot of the character select screen, hope it help to find what's wrong.

Most probably a bad image.
Tried remastering it?

 

[hushypushy]

perhaps try a different video plugin?

I have the same problem when I play from the CD but on PSX, the game runs perfectly so I don't think the image is the problem but I'll remake one, just to be sure. What's the better image type for ePSXe? I can do img, bin and iso. I already tried some plugin, same error whith each of them. I'm slowly starting to think that I will never be able to play this game with better graphics .

Try using the 'Nice' preset.

I've just rebuild an image, an img file this time and it works! I'm very happy, this game really looks better on PC. Thanks a lot for your help!
