ok uff....thx for the reply

My game has been crashing in Balacruf when i change the properties of the ring to air. every time i try to use the ring the game crashes. Any idea as to what i can do to fix it?

Are you using the latest development version of the emulator?

i have version 3.5 and its has been working great except for this issue. i guess i will have to update it because i have tried many of the configuration changes others have posted but none seem to work for me.

I've been trying to play Tales of Symphonia on Dolphin 3.5-1063 and it's working perfectly, except that at the point where you first leave Iselia Village and go into the forest, the skit doesn't work for me. Basically I get the first two messages, then the skit stops like I pressed start and when I try to walk forward I get the skit again. This just continually happens and it's gamebreaking and annoying and I really don't know what to do about it

I've tried using Dolphin 3.5 and 3.0 too, 3.5 has the same problem while 3.0 simply doesn't work for me.

What do I do?

(I don't know what to post about my settings or w/e or where to even find them so if you could help me with that that'd be appreciated)

Cheers

Download the latest development version here, it should fix the issue.

Could you upload your savegame here so I can test it?

Hello !

I have the very same problem as Pouquito on page 23 of this thread, after our heroes shot the Mana Cannon and proceed to leave the Iselia ranch, after Yuan shuts down the communicator, my screen goes black, and - sadly -, nothing happens anymore.

Honestly, I'm not sure I could understand the whole discussion about Pouquito's issue, I don't see what I ought to do to fix that problem.

Would someone, please, O please, would have a way out of this problem ?

My latest saved game is three minutes old (just before exiting the Iselia ranch, and then the cutscene begins - Jebus what's with Colette's skin, argh !), my latest save state is made a dozen seconds before the black screen.

My Dolphin version, I think this is the latest officially stable version :


The game as I am running it :

(SNIP - removed an unrelevant chapter)

My memory card (it's got a weird name, but sorting the directory's files by last *modified*, those two come on top, so, it's this) is there :
http://www.mediafire.com/download/837cw899w5298ux/memory_card_GC.rar

My save state made ten seconds before the bug :
http://www.mediafire.com/download/y10jzsitr2707bg/GQSPAF.s06

I also tested the game with other versions of the program, copying these files :
- the save state, copying GQSPAF.s06 from (working stable 3.5 version)/user/StateSaves/ to (other Dolphin version)/user/StateSaves/
- the saved game, copying (working stable 3.58 version)/user/gc/MemoryCardA.EUR - Copie.EUR.raw to (other Dolphin version)/user/cg/
(I know that's a weird saved game raw file name, I think I must have done some tests in the past, and accidentally settled with this copied version of the file, haha. I made sure that was precisely that .raw file by sorting the folder's file by modification date)

With those two other Dolphin versions :
-- previous stable version 3.0 :
> it said older save states were not compatible.
> it said the memory card in slot 1 is corrupt and needs to be formatted
-- with the latest dev version offered today (dolphin-master-3.5-1565-x64)
> it apparently loaded the save games file correctly, but it showed me zero saved games at all
> it crashed upon trying to restore saved states from the working 3.5 stable version

At this point, I've exhausted all the tricks I could think of, and I'm really despaired
I'm really hooked on this game, I've been playing it for two months now (I don't have much spare time, yeah, I'm not a student anymore ^^), and I would be really sad if I were to stop playing it as the plot finally unfolds itself...

Thank you VERY MUCH if a kind soul can help me, really !

http://www.4shared.com/file/keqQLgeY/MemoryCardAUSA.html Here you go.

I've tried using a different rom too btw, but it didn't work. Stuck at the exact same point.

Woah there friend, that's potential copyright infringement (commonly known as "piracy"). Any copying not authorized by the copyright holders and not permitted under your country's laws (e.g. personal copies via Fair Use in the U.S.) is copyright infringement. You can't just blithely share games on the internet like that, not legally anyway. We don't want the Dolphin forums involved in any trouble, so we don't talk about downloading games or letting others download our personal copies. Just a warning this time since it doesn't look like you knew the ramifications of offering your copy for download and since you haven't actually done it yet.

At any rate, there's probably a simple solution. Have you tried the latest experimental builds? They fix a lot problems in this and other games (notably certain crashes, the music under HLE audio). You'll have to copy your memory card over from your 3.5 folder to the latest. You'll also have to point the latest revision to said memory card (Config button -> GC tab -> ... button to browse for a memory card file).

i updated my version and it seems to be working fine now. i did have it crash on me a little while after my previous spot but im tweaking the settings, so hopefully i can find a nice stable configuration. thanks for the help
