Random Crashes

[nesdude]

Hey, saw your emu at psphacks.net, just got a PSP, and had a few roms I would LOVE to carry around. So, I put your emu on, and I must say, it runs great. All of my classics run good, Super Mario All Stars, F Zero (slow, but playable) and Tiny Toons Adventures: Buster Busts Loose (one of my first games ever) and they run with little to no problems on 333 mHz.

But... there are a few exceptions. Super Mario RPG, and although I expected it to run slow, locks up my PSP, causing me to remove my battery on occasion. This has happened twice, once on the main menu and once on the map screen.

The second random crash has happened only once, on Earthbound. The game displayed pretty colors while in a battle, but this has only happened once.

Anyways, thanks for making a pretty kick ass emu. I hope to see more work out of you later.

When you start FF2 it always freezes when you enter Baron castle.

as I wrote on the web page, version 0.2 should fix most of theses bugs.

Can't wait to give it a go.

For all those out there, you should NEVER take your battery out with your memstick still in. You can risk corrupting your games and lose your saves. What you should do is HOLD the power button for 15 seconds. Doing this will do a complete shutdown. Hit the power on again and it should be back up and running fine. Hope that helps

thanks psphreak, that's exactly the info I've been needing. Though I've had good luck shutting down from the menu screen, my one shutdown while running a ROM crashed it... pulling the batter corrupted my memory stick, but now I know how to avoid that until the next update. THANKS!

I haven't run into this problem. I played FF2 for about 10 minutes and it didn't crash, although I had Crono Trigger crash on me once so far.

Mine crashed 2 out of 3 times in LOZ: Link to the Past when I enter the lost woods. I think the reason is the transition effect that happens at that part. (Mode 7 I believe)
