Star Ocean: First Departure

[Nexxy]

Well 1154 is working too, mb just this version was broken for me.

Keep up good work.

Mb if figured it out. If you Load a savestate and get into autobattle it stucks into blackscreen. (latest version : 1222-g14aa9c6)

Anyone can confirm this ?

Here is a savestate file for star ocean: first departue.

which crashes after first auto battle

[Nexxy]

well ok, i think just the save state thing is crushed, normal psp memory saving works for me. (regarding : blackscreen if i enter autobattle. fps / speed doesnt change anymore, ppsspp doesnt do anything anymore)

here is a memory state (v1246)
memstick.rar

and here savestates from this memory state which will crush in the next autobattle (v1246):
save-states.rar

The game have some problems(random crashing,flying enemys\characters and so on)but I clear it almost two months ago while using 0.9.1-542 x86

So you could say that it's playable.
It's freezing(I think)after the credits but the data that says the game is cleared is saved so you can continue to the bonus dungeon

As vsub_ suggested, moved and updated the compatibility list.

How can I solve the problem of flying characters?

Are you using a recent devlopment build?

[hotsuma]

yes. I'm using v0.9.1-1360. I tried to check "disable spencil check" & using "buffer rendering". The characters are still flying.

First off i would like to say thank you this forum has been very helpful I could not get this game to work for the longest time my only issue is that when my character moves the game lags pretty bad and the music becomes distorted i am using 9.1-1676-g03735c1 it could be that my laptop sucks my specs are amd dual core processor e-350, amd radeon hd 6310, 4gb ddr3 memory

This thread just in a wrong section, it shouldn't be in playable.

[PSPUMD]

This game is playable. whats everyone spec ? and what device are u playing this on could be a factor as well. just use old builds or the latest working one for this game should be fine. just tested with v0.9.1-2054-gb558c71 and working on Windows7 64

Hi, I see people saying that disabling Stencil test make characters visible (which is true), but it also makes character walk over the sprites (like walls, roofs...). Is there someway to fix that?

Also, I have problem with FMVs (not only in this game). They slutter every few seconds. I dont think its HW problem as they have same speed no matter how high resolution I use.

Using newest Windows 64 build, I have AMD Radeon 7450

Thanks for answer

Bollocks, Star Ocean is broken once more. The characters are invisible in 0.9.5. What the hell?

The game is no longer playable.

Enable from the Graphics screen settings "Disable stencil test"

Enable from the Graphics screen settings "Disable stencil test"

Ah, that worked. Too bad there are still layering issues with overlapping sprites.

I tried playing but after any text box closes the screen goes black with just a little bar of screen visible. Couldn't get any build or setting to stop doing it and only seen 1 other guy mention the same problem but no answer. Star ocean 2 works fine for me but not this one for some reason.
