As you will note, it's nothing special and/or specific to the game.

Also, (I wonder why no one pointed you to this before) can you do us a favour and post your complete system information?

Boot up PPSSPP --> Head to Settings --> System --> Developer Tools --> System Information --> Take a screenshot (hit F12) and post it (screenshot will be located in memstick/PSP/SCREENSHOT folder) in your next reply please.

[Pandemona]

Will it be possible for someone to post a zip file or dropbox or something of their PPSSPP that's already set-up for phantasy star portable 2? (And yeah, I know it's a hassle, sorry 'bout that)

[emmaus]

it doesn't need any special setttings.the problem might be from your system since the one who had the problem tried it on his phone and it worked.all builds of the same version are basically the same,except with some few changes to make it work on the os being ported.to see if it might be from your system,try an other version of ppsspp,especially the version release(like 0.9.6 or 0.9.5 not dev builds).if problem persists,try laying it on different pc with specs different from yours,like different vga or cpu.

[Darklink21]

Hello, I`m new here and when I play phantasy star 2 it the screen becomes black each time an attack hit an enemy, I want to know how can I resolve this problem; my computer have a processor i5 x64 and a intel® HD Graphics 4000

[vnctdj]

Merged.

I had 3 PSPs, and then they got stolen, lost, and bricked; in that order. May they rest in someone else's pocket.

Yeah, after looking at your sys info screenshot I'm inclined to blame the drivers of your Intel Integrated Graphics chipset for the issue.

Either that or the card isn't a good match at all for PPPSSPP with Windows 8 for this particular game with Buffered Rendering.

We've obtained reports of a few others who've had issues with their Integrated Cards after updating/reinstalling the OS from Windows 7 to Windows 8, which requires different drivers. This can be a bit iffy, especially on older Intel Integrated GFX chipsets that came with the Core/Core 2 CPUs. (pre the HD 2xxx/3xxx/4xxx era).

My advice to you would be to ensure you're on the latest mandated Intel drivers for your card from the Intel website.

I guess it may be that cause I noticed my PC is very unstable with things like DX10 because the drivers for my GFX taper off for Windows 7 OS. Thanks for all the help everyone, I conclude my own inquiries on PSP2 for now, until we can get into Unbuffered. ^_^

[jinmu15]

is this okay? or should I change the settings?

[serafin72]

You using software rendering? Change it to buffered.

[[email protected]]

is grapic problem have been fix?

[Rizki29]

i have problem with graphic too sometime its get trough the land and lost some graphic in the game
edit : i post screenshot later

[vsub_]

This bug just make the game more difficult...definitely not unplayable.
I clear the game with 197 hours of gameplay(good thing not all areas suffer from this problem)

[emmaus]

the problem still exists.it is being worked on,the fault has been identified and a fix found,but applying it breaks other parts of the game,like making wall in your room and lobby transparent.until a fix is found for the bug that appears,the main fix cant be merged with the main branch.so please wait.
