Patapon 2

[[Unknown]]

What happens exactly when you do the following?

1. Use the latest version of PPSSPP, e.g. 1.0 or the latest git build, with default settings (no weird changes like turning off save encryption.)
2. Load Patapon 1 without using any savestates whatsoever, and save the game using the normal game save feature.
3. Load Patapon 2 without using any savestates whatsoever, and try to import the Patapon 1 save data?

Does it say the Patapon 1 save is not there, or that it's invalid, or what does it do? Can you upload the savedata from Patapon 1 that you're trying to import so someone else can try it?

Also, are you 100% sure that both Patapon 1 and Patapon 2 are from the same region? That is, both US or both EU, etc. but not mixed (EU / US / JP.)

The game runs at full speed, but with the newest build,1.01 i believe. You cant see hatapon he is completely invisible which hampers game playing capability when you take into consideration that if he dies. You lose

Merged.

@DNA5654 works fine here:
       
Sure he might be harder to notice in a bigger crowd, but that's just how game works;p and he's certainly not invisible.

So if you can't see him, the problem is on your side. You should start by updating ppsspp version, since 1.0.1 is nearly 6 months old and irrelevant at this time, at least for android and windows you can get the latest version from the official site. Then restore default settings in case you used any hacks, also disable cheats if you used some and reload game from normal in-game save as savestates keep most of the bugs and corruption.

I see the problem. The latest unofficial build. He' s invisible in it. I can see him in the other builds

[LunaMoo]

Then stop using "unofficial" versions and problem solved. Why would you even bother with any unofficial sources when Orphis buildbot provides nightlies free of charge.>.>

Anyway latest official build while I'm typing this was "v1.0.1-806-g1c61470" and using that build on pc I see exactly same thing as on screenshots I posted earlier ~ meaning no issues.

[DNA5654]

By unofficial i mean the buildbot. Maybe there a more updated one but mine hes invisible

[LunaMoo]

Well Orphis buildbot isn't really unofficial, quite the opposite can't really get more official source than one linked on download page.;p

Henrik made lots of changes recently I guess to prepare ppsspp for some new rendering mode he plans adding later, so it's always possible that a build or two were bugged, but if it still happens for you on "v1.0.1-806-g1c61470" then it might be caused by some hack or be an issue specific to your device or drivers as it really doesn't happen to me on pc.

hi there! i don't know what i'm doing wrong but i can't get past the 6sth mission( the emulator just crashes( using the lastest ppsspp, default settings. tried deleting the savedata, no results... that same thing happened with patapon 1 when i couldn't play a certain mission. it just freezes on the loading screen.
nvm, just got through it, it was prolly cuz i had too many units...

[edwinmyers]

now it's crashing on another mission.......................... have no idea wtf is goin on(( any help? i'm usin the pc version btw 64bit win. and again it was because i used too many patapons to come with me ))) was hard winning it withy 1 only hero

May I know if you have the Perfect beat and fever cheat for Patapon 2.

[mega_lova_nia]

Okay, sorry for necroing after two years. I've recently got back to Patapon 2 and I'm still baffled on how hard it is to achieve perfect beats. Patapon 3 doesn't seem to have this issue and i managed to keep a steady perfect streak. Is it because they buffed the timing window by a lot in patapon 3 or is it truly because of technical issues that is unsolvable? Is there a known fix or mod or refining method for this or do i just have to git gud?
