Dead or Alive Paradise

Just keep in mind the sound in this game is pretty terrible at the moment.

Just keep in mind the sound in this game is pretty terrible at the moment.

Easily remedied by doing the following and playing your own cool ambient beach tracks in the background using your preferred media player. (on Windows or Android if possible):-



The voices and sound effects are perfect, it's pretty much only the music that's messed up.

For some reason, sceInitMp3 gets called constantly and takes around 300-1000ms to run on Android, even with volume set to 0. :/
It gets progressively slower and eventually crashes the whole emulator.

With that build I sent the problem goes away, and the bottleneck becomes "DL Processing Time" (around 35ms).
What does "DL Processing" mean? Display List? If that's the case, then that probably means I just need a better video card in my phone. -_-

Not on Windows though.

On Windows sceGeListEnqueue is the one that gets called the most, at around 4-5 ms, with a very minor impact.

DL Processing Time on Windows (for my rig in sig) is also much lower, at about 3-4ms. And yes, DL = Display List.

Seems like MP3 processing is absolutely broken for Android devices at the moment which would explain those statistics. It should not take 300+ms for that syscall. Something is not right.

In windows, there's a huge UNIMPL Mp3 error spam if you have the Log Console open though, which definitely has something to do with it, and could be related to the mp3 troubles in Android.

Someone can give me ppsspp.ini for pc to play this game?

You don't need a special ppsspp.ini file for the pc to play this game.

Just tick "I/O on Thread (experimental)" in the System Settings Menu in the UI and the game should start up right away.

Other settings can be set to default.

Or if you insist, the only portion of the ini file that needs to be changed is this:-

Code:

[CPU] Jit = True FastMemory = True CPUSpeed = 0 SeparateCPUThread = False SeparateIOThread = True

I tried but my game only in Loading

Update: Using ULES01431 with PPSSPP v0.9.1-467-g08d5190 on Windows 7 (x86) version, Game worked fine for me, played Volleyball & lost.
The Music sounded distorted, so turned that off.
Only glitches in the graphics are the incorrect shadows that flow from the heads of the girls as seen in photo's 2 & 3.

Are you using the latest 0.9.1 dev builds? The official 0.9.1 version doesn't support this game fully.

Anybody mind telling me in what header easy_guard is defined? I've been looking all over the place.
Looks like the DL Processing bottleneck on android isn't the video card and I'm determined to find out what is.

heh, thanks. I'm still trying to find my way around the code.

Can someone help me out with a link to a build that runs this? Currently I am only getting to the main menu then it goes to Now Loading and hangs. I tried a couple of builds from the link solarmystic put but they are not running at all for me. Thank you very much

Like I've mentioned before, any latest 0.9.1 dev build from the buildbot should run it (the latest one (v0.9.1-596-g94d1df0) is a good bet), provided you've ticked the I/O on Thread option in the System Settings like below:-



If you don't tick the option before starting the game, the game will ALWAYS hang at the Now Loading screen forever.

A good way of knowing you've got it right is to look at the background of the title screen, you should see the beach rendered properly:-



You didn't mention whether you tried it on Windows or Android. Android users may have issues with this game because of the mp3 implementation leading to crappy performance as stated by another member in the thread.

Thanks I tried the v0.9.1-596-g94d1df0 and it's not working for me I'm a total noob at this stuff I am running on Windows. I'm not sure what build I found that I am using that at least gets me to the now loading screen but all other builds just are not working for me
edit: I realized I was being stupid and searched around here for other topics for the problem I was having and found a solution!
thanks so much for the help!

When it comes to the volleyballgame, the fps could get really low about 1 ,2 fps in Android platform!
