Tales of Symphonia

[Makamaru]

Hello, I have a problem with Tales of Symphonia on the Nintendo Gamecube. I am at the part when you go to through the Ossai trail. When I head to the red lever my game crashes every time. I am currently using rev 3.0 549 then I went to the latest then 2 before that one. and in every rev. the same crash in the same spot.

My specs are amd athlon II X3 445 - gpu Nvidia 8600 gt ram - 2GB. I also have turned on and off every setting to try and get this to work. Reading all the threads I was able to find too.

This is the error I get - Unhandled Exception
Code: 0xC0000005
Call stack info:
Dolphin!0x00827679 : ?

Any help I can get would be really appreciated, thank you.

Are you using savestates to load your game?

[Makamaru]

yea I'm using savestates, oh don't tell me thats my problem I haven't ingame save at all :/

[Garteal]

That's your problem. Savestates are unreliable, especially in this game.
If you can, load your savestate, save ingame and keep using the ingame save.
Only use the savestates when absolutely neccessary.
