Quote:Have you installed anything (programs, etc) that might cause this?
You haven't changed the settings either right?
Could you verify if the freezes only happen with the version you use right now? Or does it also happen with 3.0 or newer versions?
Nop, anything new.
I can't verify if it happens in other versions as 3.0 or lower because I can't enter in the statesaves, but in the dolphin 3.0-372, 3.0-371 and 3.0-370 it appears the same freezes. I'm thinking that the save is corrupted or something...
Quote:So the intro is just a white screen? Or does it not appear at all?
It should appear.
Not exactly... When I put the game without statesave (I mean, trough the menu, after the intro, Load Game etc...) all it's ok until I'm going to load it: a message says that there's not any data in MC. (after copy it, etc, etc)
Quote:Can you see the savegames in the game when you copied them over?
Nop. The same message appears... I just can see data from saves when I put the old ones I had copied during the troubles in Shadow Temple. But with the next (the data with 32 hours later more or less) I can't.
Quote:Lol yea, if you want to see every event, or collect every item yes. Tales of Symphonia, unlike Tales of the Abyss, uses affection more.
So you could basically build your affection with any character in the game and get special events etc Tongue (something I missed from Abyss...)
Mother of... @_@ I'm watching Abyss now so easy to complete...
Ah, I see now!
You're trying to use Savestates.
You should only use them when neccessary. Use the ingame save to save your game.
The reason why, is because they're unreliable. Only use them in emergency.
And only savestate when you pause.
And yes, you can't swap savestates from newer to older revs or vice versa.
Quote:But with the next (the data with 32 hours later more or less) I can't.
Did you save them on the memory card? Or are these savestates?
Oh...

I see...
I used savestates because of my trouble with crashes, to not lose my progress in the game, and after a few time it turned in an habit. I also save in the savepoints in the game, but it looks like that the saves in the MC were lost in one of the savestates and results on the lost of datas...
Quote:Did you save them on the memory card? Or are these savestates?
The one I mentioned it's saved on the MC. I'm going to try to continue since that point with dolphin 3.0 to not to have to use savestates and let's see if this time I'll be able to finish the game and defeat Abyssion.
Edit: Wtf? I just have been playing 20 minutes or so and the version 3.0 had crashed too. D:
Quote:but it looks like that the saves in the MC were lost in one of the savestates and results on the lost of datas...
Yeah hehe, you forget to save at the savepoint.
You could load the savestate in the version where it works in and make a save and then copy the save over to another version.
Quote:I'm going to try to continue since that point with dolphin 3.0 to not to have to use savestates and let's see if this time I'll be able to finish the game and defeat Abyssion.
You can use savestates, but only in emergencies. Like when there's an event, wait for them to stop talking and savestate. Or in battles, pause and savestate. That way you don't have to hear/kill everything again.
Quote:Edit: Wtf? I just have been playing 20 minutes or so and the version 3.0 had crashed too. D:
:O That's odd... if 3.0 keeps crashing you might aswell use whichever version worked best for you.
Don't forget to save at a savepoint.

Quote:I'll continue using the last one (3.0-374), then, because it looks like the version isn't the problem.
Now I remember it, I didn't pause to save them. Maybe that's the trouble, too.
And yes, I tried that of load the savestate and save in a savepoint for the MC, but it didn't work... when I load as normally since the menu and intro that save doesn't appears: "There's not data", again.
Thank you anyway: you're always helping me
I'll continue playing tomorrow, and I hope don't have more problems xD!

(Well, I deleted the last message and put it up there to not do two consecutive messages.)
I have a problem again, or maybe I found where the last was.
I'm playing and sometimes an error appears (the number of the pointer changes):
http://i42.tinypic.com/wk20w6.png
(the grade is dreadful, I know, forget that, I just was looking for EXP with an object equiped)
I was probing and this happens in 3.0 and in the newer.
If I choose Yes, I can continue playing but when I'm going to save, the file it's not saved (and I lose the game of course, because later will appear as "no data found". Also, the file is wrote with a green * as if I have ended the game, and that's not true).
If I choose No, emulator crashes... again xD
Any idea? Thank you in advance.
Hi Ashrea,
Do you have
Use Panic Handlers enabled?
If so, you must disable it at
Options ->
Configure ->
Interface (tab) and untick the option.
Quote:(the grade is dreadful, I know, forget that, I just was looking for EXP with an object equiped)
Lol, it's pretty hard to get grades in normal battles unless you fight the weak.
But you were fighting a boss right?
Quote:Also, the file is wrote with a green * as if I have ended the game, and that's not true
Are you sure? xP
Does your game have a * now?
What level, and where are you now?
Let's see...
I disabled the option you said, but even when the message doesn't appears anymore, the error is still happening:
I'm playing as normally... and when I'm going to save:

Me: wth? (that other saves with green * are from other times that this happens to me and I saved to probe it, they're who knows where... when I'm going to open it from menu after intro as you can see, it appears my normal ones)
Quote:Lol, it's pretty hard to get grades in normal battles unless you fight the weak.
But you were fighting a boss right?
No, they're normal battles with a Dark Seal equiped, and that's why I didn't put effort in grade. I said that because normally I try to gain 0,5-0,8.
Thank you once again.
PD: I'm 76 gaining level and skills in the Tower of Salvation to have the battle with Abyssion. Yes, I brought up to date quickly (sooner than expected).
PD2: And yes, I stopped using savestates XDD
Lol I see you like playing as Kratos.
That's odd... and this just started happening, and happens with both 3.0 and the latest version?
Do you have any cheats enabled?
Quote:I said that because normally I try to gain 0,5-0,8.
Lol even so, there's a lot of variables that matter. Time of battle, skills, combo's etc.
Hard to do with NPC's only :/ (Need human players).

Ooh, you're fast. You did a lot more than me xD.
I'm only lvl 65-ish with 494 encounters(battles). Played 28 hours only.
Quote:PD2: And yes, I stopped using savestates XDD
Good. But don't be afraid to use them when you feel it's going to crash

Ups, sorry for the late, I was in exams time... xD!

-Yes, both of them
-Nop, never.

Wow, I'm very good then, hahaha.
I finished the game with those problems, but finished! and defeated Abyssion. Now, I have to complete the second part: Dawn of the new World
