Street Fighter Alpha 3 comes to the loading screen then hangs

Marvel Vs Capcom hangs during multiple Crawler Assault super moves by Spider-Man

Bust a Grove (USA) seems to work great except the timings are off

I tried Ape Escape, but for some reason I cannot get the analog sticks to work.
Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Have you changed the pad type from digital to analog?

Have you re-setup your controller in Main?

Yes

I do now, but the problem remains. Maybe my mister config is too old.

EDIT: 2022-02-15
It seems a PS5 controller works just fine but my PS3 controller does not. You think this is controller related? as it works fine with other games.

FFVIII am now on disc 2, only issues ive had is game freezing during the battles sometimes and mostly resulting in error E2. used alot of savestates to get thru.

I've been playing Bugs Bunny Lost In Time since the first version of CD audio was implemented in the core, and the game has no issue whatsoever. I'm half way through the game now, and it's still an awesome and hilarous platformer, I highly recommend it. It looks pretty timeless as well!

Alone in the Dark 2 Freezes on the Loading Screen.

i've updated core to latest version (PSX_unstable_20220216_21f466.rbf) and tekken 3 refuse to boot now :/ weird

Final Doom US hangs after the intro at the "Loading..." screen, but thank you so much FPGAzumSpass for this already amazing core!

Tried it for the first time with the latest build today, fantastic work! Thank you so much @FPGAzumSpass!

I tried 'Harmful Park' through the first 4 levels without a single hitch - plays and sounds perfectly. Can't wait to try more tonight!

After the latest updates I have now got Wipeout, Wipeout XL, Doom and GTA all working.

Brilliant job FPGAzumSpass

In "Cross Tantei Monogatari (Japan)" all speech audio is going too fast. This happens right from the start of the game. Otherwise it seems to be fine. This is on PSX_DualSDRAM20220220_2.rbf.

EDIT: fixed in PSX_DualSDRAM20220503.rbf

Has someone tested the Tomb Raider – featuring Lara Croft | Englische Version | [SLES-00024] Version of the Game ? I found a report (German) showing a possible fix for game launch issues on PS3, which are identical to the current behavior on PSX Core.

https://www.trophies.de/forum/thema/165 ... e-auf-ps3/

Final Doom US and Castlevania Chronicles US are running now, too, with CD Audio enabled! <3

Fighting Force boots very slowly into a blank screen with sound

Street Fighter EX2 Plus freezes if demonstration is left on for about an hour and a half or less

Couldn't get Advanced V G 2 to work (tried 3 different roms)

Dead or Alive has this blinking overlay and forced scanlines

Did you guys miss that the PSX is still WIP and basically an Alpha build?

The wiki says:
Work in progress, don't report any bugs!

no offense, this is just information ... or did i get this wrong?

Have now tested the Tomb Raider – featuring Lara Croft | Englische Version | [SLES-00024] Version of the Game with core from 17.02.22 and this is not booting.

People are just having a discussion in a thread called compatibility list, they are not constantly harassing Robert with bug reports.
Not quite the same thing. Plus if you go on the discord he actually accepts bug reports. He even did a bug smasher video.

Yeah this ^^ I find this thread useful for things that are working to try out next.

I can confirm Tomb Raider 1 and 2 is not working yet. I have also tried possible fix, but without success.

I have just tried TFX (Japan) and it is working. I did not knew, it was released to playstation too .

All the other Tomb Raider games are working

Persona 2 - Part II - Eternal Punishment (USA) (SLUS-01158) has messed up text.
all the ingame text not showing correctly.

Jackie Chan Stuntmaster (USA) (SLUS-00684) hang after developers and publishers logos.

MiSTer Main just released with several PSX updates. Update to the latest PSX Nightly core and the compatibility should be better. Especially with the update that was released yesterday, it fixed a lot of things.

Some games that still have issues is Tomb Raider 1 and Soul Reaver. Tomb Raider gets stuck after starting the game in the games menu, but there should be a patch for the game that gets that to work. It is known what the problem is, a missing CD command in the core or something, so Robert will look into that at some point. Not sure how applying the patch to the game works, but it should make the game not use that CD command or something. Soul Reaver still has random lockups. It should be possible to get past that just by using save states, but it means having to just keep trying to get past it until the game does not freeze and you can get further into the game.

Not sure what issues other games have, but sure seems like a lot more games run much better than they did a few weeks ago. Doom and Lemmings 3D f.ex. would not boot, but the update with CDDA and multiple tracks support helped solve that.

- DMA: writing to DPCR does not always request DMA
- DMA: manual request works now for all channels
- DMA: don't start and wait with DMA when CPU is in middle of memory access anyway
- DMA resource usage reduced
- added REPtimingGPU for vram2vram
- deactivated gun crosshair because of resource usage
- added 'Advance Pause' debug feature: advance 1000 clock cycles in pause mode for each press

I have found out, that waiting long enough (30-90minutes) makes Tomb Raider 1 to run Lara's House. Even 1st mission has loaded successfully.

I have tested unstable playstation 20220223_154468 core. It will probably work the same way in previous versions too.

Interesting

Though it's listed as working, Mickey's Wild Adventure has a black bar on the top 1/5th of the screen. Like there is a vertical shift down

Garbled music(classic version & arrange version" on "Castlevania Chronicles (US)".

since few updates, some PAL games stoped working. for example "Worms Pinball (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) (SLES-00483)".
