RE: Crimson Gem Saga
I changed the workaround cheat a bit, so use disable code if you already used the old one, then replace the old cheat with the new one. The previous one was also disabling replacement and maybe ended up a bit unstable which new one avoids.

RE: Crimson Gem Saga
I tried all the versions I still had (1.1, 1.0.1, 0.9.1 and 1.2.2) and all of them have crashes after pretty much every cutscene which seems to be randomly fixed by one or another version here and there. Tried the cheat as well, didn't help. All kinds of settings, nothing worked. v1.0-83-g1ecfd6c seems to be the last working version w/o crashes, but I can't find the download (for Windows, there is only 9.9 and 1.0.1 and 1.1.1 etc). If anyone could help me it'd be appreciated, really like the game (don't even remember it crashing that much last time I played it), but unplayable this way.

The new cheat bypasses the freeze and crash issues. I just tried it twice to make sure it wasn't a fluke (because it did bypass without the cheat every now and then). Thanks for the fix! Big Grin

Did you try the updated cheat? All the cutscenes should be fixed now.

RE: Crimson Gem Saga
Might not be needed, but changed the time the cheat wastes by a few times, if you already used the updated one, just change the following line "_L 0x20002038 0x3409000A" to "_L 0x20002038 0x34090100" then use disable code, and again enable it.
That change should give it much more room to keep it from failing if the timing could still go wrong maybe based on hardware/settings or different cutscenes. I think I might make some normal cheats just to rush through the game and check if it's stable with this.

RE: Crimson Gem Saga
It does still hang sometimes and then sometimes it works on 1.2.2. It might have something to do with unthrottle or alternate speeds. It just occurred twice in a row, before the fight with Gelts and then again right after. It did work eventually though, so I guess it works in the end. Thanks.

RE: Crimson Gem Saga
Literally before posting some cheats for this game I passed the battle with Gelts, playing from the start using the last version of this workaround cheat(made 2 changes, so that's 3rd version) without a single problem and definitely abused unthrottle.
Reloaded this fight a few times now without issues, with or without unthrottle.

Maybe you're using some hacks, experimental settings or savestates kept from older ppsspp versions(or from the time when you could use any of such settings)? Especially things like "Timer hack", "Multithreading" or "change emulated PSP cpu clock" could easily break this. Quick way to clear it all at once ensuring nothing broken stays in memory would be to disable those settings, maybe even restore defaults(~ in system settings) just to be sure, then restarting emulation and reloading from that save without using savestates.

Edit: found another crash trigger at the start of chapter 3 so updated the cheat again, also reorganized it to be easier to update if I find more triggers, I could pretty much patch all of them already but I prefer to patch as little as possible since I'm playing the game anyway ~ and finished it now completely, including optional areas, couldn't find any more crashes.
