Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions

[Gilgameur]

I was fooling around with the Disassembly-thing... and I got the game running... past the 3rd battle! Unfortunately, I have been completely unable to reproduce the result. I was able to make a new save game, (I should have made a save-state! WTF was I thinking?!) but it doesn't work. When I load it just sends me to the same, endless black-screen.

I was playing around with all kinds of settings, so I'm not sure how I was set up. The last thing I did was turn off "Ignore Illegal Reads/Writes". I hit "go" in the Disassembly, and it loaded up... FAST.

I *think* I altered the following:
VBO = on
Read Framebuffers to Memory (GPU) = on

I'm not entirely sure because after I got it to work, I reset the emulator. I tried to load the new save, and it failed. The whole thing locked-up at that point. When I re-started the emulator, my options were all reset.

My guess is that I was able to skip a certain part of the code that's causing the problem. I tried to play around and remember where I was at, but I have no idea. Nor do I remember the exact settings. I just hope something can be gained from this info. (Though I imagine it's not very useful.)

Edit: I turned on the VBO while it was paused on an illegal memory read. When I resumed, it IMMEDIATELY went to the audio-loop-error. It also inserted this:
idle0 I[HLE]: GLES\Framebuffer.cpp:1116 Drawing the framebuffer <04000000>

Oh my vibro God, man your trick with "disassembly" and "ignore illegal reads/writes" work, i don't understand how but i use it. After the death of Ramza's father a black screen pop up with the sceAudio error in the log console. But i made a savestate juste before the cutscene. I retry with the trick and i pass the black screen. But i have not managed to reproduce the same result after the third battle, but it's still very interesting. I tried different version of ppsspp and I had interesting results without success. What a pity. Congratulations anyway.
