God Eater 2

[EtherealAni]

@Kazalus - Just as you can see by where this thread is - oficially it's not playable, however unoficially with some workarounds and patience, we can play through whole game from quite some time and probably at least a few of us here already did so. @_@

If you want to try the unofficial way, there are 2 cases depending on game version:
- v1.00 - it should run on official ppsspp versions,
- updated game with dlc's(current latest and also best 1.30) - requires modified build to work ~ you can build your own or use for example my build which I posted in some earlier posts in this thread for android. Also for updated game to even boot correctly, dlc's/update files have to be decrypted on psp, you can do it by yourself or just google for decrypted update.

In both cases we can only play 1 mission, then save, restart, and continue with another mission otherwise the game will crash, also there are extra crashes at times while using savestates during mission, nothing too terrible since it happens max 1 time per mission and from my experience doesn't happen at all when not using savestates there.

Another issue would be slightly missplaced and way too detailed bloom effects at higher res which is somewhat ugly for anyone knowing how it should look. This is just cosmetic glitch caused by upscalling which affects many games with bloom effects and depends alot on the settings used and personal vision of eyecandy, can be even removed totally with non-buffered rendering.

I've been using both the official PPSSPP version 0.9.8 and the modified build for GE2 and both can't get past the black screen with the PlayStation network stuff in white. I know that this means that the game can't find the update and I have downloaded both the updated iso and update files. I downloaded both the v1.30 iso and v1.30 decrypted update as well as the v1.40 iso and v1.40 decrypted update.

Is the reason why it can't find the decrypted update because of the directories?
Oh and I'm using PPSSPP on Android.
