I'm getting a problem just like this one, when I start up FFCC, I get the game studio logo, then nothing but white boxes on a black screen. I found that despite this, I was still able to navigate the two options which I presume to be New Game and Load Game, as when I pressed A on the lower of the two options, I found a screen that asked for which memory card, then reported no saves found. After leaving that screen, then pressing A on the upper option in the Title screen (New Game, I assume) I could go through the intro movie, where I noticed that I have no audio at all, and there's a light blue box in the upper left hand corner. After the entire movie has finished, I see a book, which stays closed no matter how long I look at it, and the game stops there.

My setup, is a dual core 3.2GHz AMD CPU, an in-board ATI Radeon HD 4250, and an additional ATI Radeon HD 5570, and 12GB of RAM, with Dolphin on the latest version I could find, 3.0-592.

My configuration, below:


Seems to work just fine, video and audio when I'm playing other games such as Super Mario Sunshine, Legend of Zelda: Four Swords, or Skies of Arcadia, but just doesn't work for FFCC. I had the same problem on a previous machine, exact same as I'm seeing here before I had the motherboard I have now with in-board ATI 4250, so it's not that I have two graphics cards, that much I do know so far. Other than that, I'm clueless. I will greatly appreciate any help.

Set backend to Direct3D9 and uncheck "disable lighting" and "disable fog". Besides, move the slider of the texture cache accuracy to the highest value (if you encounter problems, set it to the middle)

Still getting the same problem, after checking all three values of Texture Cache Accuracy. No matter the value, this is always my title screen:

MufinMcFlufin, did you try delroth's suggestion below?

I don't have a disc drive in the supported list, along with I have a virtual copy of the disc in .gsc format.

Repeat your method of acquisition as long as it is legal (eg cleanrip). If you obtained it illegally (eg by downloading it from the internet) then we can't and won't help you.

It's not even possible to play multiplayer offline.

Bam! Two player:

(Click the thumbnails for full view of 1920x1080.)

There are two problems with it, though.
The first problem is that each vba-m connection seems to slow down dolphin pretty severely. I only tested it out a little, but with one gba I was mostly getting about 70% speed, and with two I was getting maybe 50% speed.
The second problem is that, at least with two players and the settings I was using, each vba-m instance will randomly disconnect. Sometimes it reconnects on its own, but other times you need to abuse savestates to force it to reconnect. Interestingly, I have NOT seen this happen when there is only one player.

I assume that both of the above problems would get rather worse with three or four players.
If anyone wants to know what I did to get it working, despite the problems I've described, lemme know.

EDIT: Yeahh, it's even slower with four players, and I couldn't even get into the first level, because player 4 refused to reconnect, so I couldn't press A:

Please do tell!!!

I've been trying with no results. In fact I just registered to the forums when I read you made multiplayer work.

It would be so awesome to get it to work.

Thanks in advance.
